"Despicable."

"Since you're able to say that word to my face, I assume that we're already friends. I am honored." Avery laughed and said, "I'm the beneficiary in both cases. I may not be sincere to you, but I may not be loyal to Rick as well. If there's anything you need help with, I will certainly not hesitate to help you, provided that it doesn't harm my benefits."

Shane uttered, "Alright."

Avery and Shane were silent for a while. Then, Avery suddenly opened his mouth and said, "You can take Sheryl out for a walk in crowded areas. Instead of letting Charlotte wait to be dumped, you might as well intensify their conflict. At least you can still seize an opportunity."

"I'll see." Shane didn't want to confront Rick directly.

Avery didn't continue his speech. He stood up and said, "Mr. Fuller, you can rest a little longer. I'll leave first."

Shane nodded.

After Avery left, Cole stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Fuller, are we still going to stay here?"

"Wait."

What were they waiting for?

Cole was puzzled.

About ten minutes later, a man holding a camera suddenly walked in and handed him a business card, saying that he was a reporter from the newspaper company.

Cole instantly recalled what Avery had said before, that Shane could take Sheryl out for a walk in crowded areas...

And now a reporter had appeared out of nowhere.

Avery must have wanted to introduce him to Shane and let him expose Sheryl's identity.

But would it be beneficial for the company if he did that?

Cole's heart was beating like a drum. He wanted to walk over and remind Shane, but he was talking to the reporter. It seemed like he didn't have the chance to interrupt. When the reporter left, the plan had already been made.

"Mr. Fuller, do you really want to reveal your relationship with Sheryl? The comments online may not be good for the company."

"They won't disclose our relationship."

"Huh?" Cole was stunned.

"They just need to take pictures of me taking Sheryl out to play."

Cole couldn't understand the purpose behind Shane's decision, but he knew that Shane must have had his own reasons for doing that. It would be better for him to not ask about it. The next day.

Charlotte arrived at the partnership to attend a meeting.

Manager Kent was absent this time, and even Shane wasn't there.

Ashley tried hinting at Charlotte a few times to not be overly ruthless because it wouldn't be a good thing for anyone if she didn't treat people with respect and compassion. Charlotte was not a fool. She obviously understood her hint. However, it was a pity that she had no idea why Shane didn't attend the meeting.

The meeting was quite important because two significant projects would start going into operation after that.

Unless he went abroad for a business trip, Shane had no reason not to attend the meeting.
