It was a little late when Shane returned to the country, but Charlotte still asked Rick whether he wanted to meet up. Rick directly asked her for the address and said that he would arrive in half an hour. Charlotte put down her phone and walked to the open kitchen. She placed her coffee cup in the coffee machine and pressed the button. The entire room was filled with the fragrance of coffee beans. After she made her coffee, she walked into the living room. Shane was wearing a casual robe as he leaned against the back of the sofa, looking a little lazy.

She placed the cup of coffee by his hand and said, "You're already so tired, why did you ask me to ask Rick if he wants to come?"

"Isn't it better to settle things earlier?"

"But, you look very tired..." Charlotte absentmindedly reached out her hand and touched the space between his eyebrows. She used her fingertip to outline the shape of his eyebrows.

Shane stared at her soulfully, but he didn't stop her. He watched as her fingers slid all the way down and finally stop on his chin. Only then did he tremble as if he had just woken from a dream. She stopped hurriedly and retracted her hand. Shane covered her hand with his.

Their eyes met.

Charlotte didn't dare to blink, nor did she dare to look at him. She closed her eyes in fear, but it looked as if she was looking for a kiss.

Shane leaned over and kissed her on the lips. He let go of her hand and grabbed her waist. "If the Jane Corporation leaves the Asia Pacific region, it will only be good for us."

"So, you are helping him to get to know his plans better?"

"From what I know of Rick, he would liquidate his Asia Pacific region company and leave the country soon after our press conference."

This time, Charlotte did not ask why.

She knew that Rick had deep feelings for her. In her heart, she thought he really wouldn't keep Kendall by his side, even after he helped protect Kendall. But, in actuality, he had done it. The light in Charlotte's eyes gradually dimmed.

"The man behind this scheme is not so simple," Shane said.

"Could it be Christopher?" "He might not be so shrewd." "In my opinion, they're all good people. Whether by my side or by yours, they're all..." Charlotte didn't know what to say.

It was like they had suddenly found out that someone was a murderer. The person had always done good things and was a charitable person. But the reason they had killed was very simple - they just wanted

to.

Wasn't that ridiculous?

In her heart, she felt that Christopher and Rick's actions were just as ridiculous as this concept.

"Good people don't make mistakes?" Shane asked back.
