Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Zoe picked up the phone. Her expression changed after hearing Avery's words. She turned on the speakerphone and put the device on the table.

"Now Shane is not a hindrance at all. As long as we contact Christopher and use NC Company to drive the Jane Corporation out of River City, we can control River City sooner or later. This..."

About ten minutes later.

On Avery's end, he pressed the stop button on the listening device. He tidied up the files, and the papers made some soft shushing noises.

"I thought after getting so many hours of breathing noises, Kendall must have left the clothes at home or sent them the laundry." Avery's voice sounded from the other end.

It was rare for Zoe and Peter to hear his serious voice. The both of them were not used to it at all.

"However, when I checked again today, I found something different than usual. After I turned up the volume, I found this ten-minute conversation."

"Avery, have you told Mr. Fuller and Ms. Emerson about this?" Peter asked.

"Not yet. Shane doesn't want Charlotte to get involved in this matter. After I tell her, other than sending resources, she'll just get you to investigate this matter. So, I might as well come directly to you," Avery said with a self-deprecating smile.

He also wanted to find those two people, but now the information was not complete. There was no definite evidence to prove that Christopher was in contact with the Stevens family.

What's more, Christopher was Shane's friend. No matter what, Shane and Charlotte not knowing would only be beneficial in solving this matter.

Peter's expression darkened. "I see. I'll start the investigation now."

"However, I am very curious about why you two are together. I originally wanted to contact you through Zoe, but I didn't expect that she would save me the trouble." Peter's lips thinned in dissatisfaction. "Why can't I be with her?"

Avery was stunned at first. After he noticed Peter's hostility, he laughed. "Don't be so nervous. The person I care about has always been Irena. If Zoe didn't look like Irena, I won't care too much about her. You don't have to be so hostile to me."

"Your words that made me misunderstand." "What should I say then? In my opinion, Zoe may not dislike you, but you are definitely not the first type of person she would choose as a boyfriend."

"You..." Peter was angry.

"Anyway, remember what you promised me. I will go back to my city. I still have some contracts to settle on the way too. I don't have so much time to keep an eye on the Stevens family. Peter, I can send you and Zoe some private funds. I know that you are short of money."

After he said that, Avery hung up the phone.
