Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Rick didn't push Kendall away. From a logical point of view, she got hurt because of him. He had no right to blame her.

"You don't need to go find her because of me anymore. I was the one who chose to break up with her. It has nothing to do with her." Rick's voice was unusually cold, which created a stark contrast to the gentleness he normally had.

"You were so sad during that time. I know how painful it is to be in love with someone! Moreover, she could've made up with you, it was her who..."

"Kendall, we both know very well that once there's a rift, there's no way we can mend it. She's crueler than me. Because she knows that this is better for me, and that's why she decided to let go." Rick reached out to open the drawer.

There were all kinds of medicine in it.

This was actually Kendall's office, but she didn't know about the medicines. "These..."

"Every office has these." He took out a bottle of rubbing alcohol to wipe the wounds on her hands. "It will hurt a little, so bear with it. You can shout if you really can't stand it."

"I'm fine."

She didn't even wail when she was beaten.

Rick was meticulous and caring. The more Kendall looked at him, the more she fell in love with him. It even made her voice become soft and sweet too. "Rick, have you really given up on her?" "I won't choose you, at least not for now. I'm not qualified to talk about dating now."

"That means it's not my problem that you didn't choose me. It's just your problem, right?" Kendall suddenly grinned and hugged his arm. "Then I'll be your future girlfriend. When you feel like dating someone, just come to me immediately, okay?"

Rick sighed and said helplessly, "Kendall, you and I are just taking advantage of each other. You need to find a sense of accomplishment around me, while I need you to help me collect information. Essentially, we're just trading."

"I'm willing to give myself to you like a commodity. You can buy information from me and I'll send myself to you as a gift, isn't that great?"

If only it was a few years earlier.

If he had known Kendall before Charlotte, he probably would've fallen in love with her, who had grown up from a reckless child to who she was today. There was no reason for him not to fall.

She was beautiful and cute, obedient, sensible, and polite. Besides, she had her own unique personality. Her decent family background would be helpful to his career too.

However.

He had already met Charlotte. And after he knew that there was a person named Charlotte in this world, no one was able to pique his interest anymore.

"I don't want to burden you, Kendall."

"But if you don't promise me, it will burden me too. Plus, you can't leave me now either."

She was right.
