Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Shane recalled the shattered ashtray that lacerated her ankle. He lifted the sheets and found a nasty gash on her ankle. The bleeding was minimal but it had not healed, and the area was swollen. He picked up his phone and asked, "Avery, do you have a private doctor?"

"What about Hayden?"

"He went abroad."

"Oh yes, he's a mobile doctor. Give me your address and dress Charlotte. I'll bring someone over."

"Sorry to trouble you."

Upon hearing this, Avery was very unhappy. He replied sarcastically, "Oh, Mr. Fuller is so noble and dignified that he's apologizing over such a minor task. It's my greatest honor. Thank you, Mr. Fuller." Avery ended the call immediately.

Shane put down his phone and held Charlotte in his arms. She was only wearing a thin, provocative nightgown.

He donned loose-fitting pants on her while avoiding contact with her wound. He took off his shirt and wrapped it around her. After all, he could sleep in a robe.

Charlotte was jostled awake. "Shane."

Her voice was hoarse.

"Yes, I'm here." Shane leaned over and held her hand, worry creased his forehead. "The doctor will arrive soon."

"I'm fine." She leaned into his arms. "I'm just very cold."

Shane tightened his arms and his lips thinned. In his heart, he had hacked Christopher into tiny pieces. If it wasn't for him, his memories wouldn't be muddled leading him to smash everything in sight and consequently hurt Charlotte.

Maybe he was the one to blame.

Though he knew Heidi was dead, hearing her name still made him yearn for redemption.

If it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have died.

Shane hugged the person in his arms tightly. Was his persistence towards Charlotte a form of redemption for the past?

At least this time, he did not want to mess it up.

Half an hour later, Avery arrived with a doctor.
