Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Kendall didn't care about what the others thought. She went straight to Charlotte and said, "I have something to tell you!"

Charlotte wasn't surprised. Instead, she nodded at Kendall and the two of them went to the side to chat.

"I understand what you mean now." Avery leaned against Rick and looked at the two of them walking away.

"You shouldn't need to suspect Shane, if you need to suspect anyone." Rick smiled.

"What?" Shane frowned.

It was clear that Shane didn't quite understand what was going on.

Kendall followed Charlotte to stand under a street lamp. She didn't have any time to prepare herself, but she braced herself and said, "I don't regret what I did to Sheryl! I don't think my family was wrong for saving me. So I just want to know, why did you let me go?"

Charlotte looked at her with her head tilted to one side and asked, "Why do you think that I let you go?"

"I'm just taking care of the Stevens family first." Charlotte looked into the distance and not at Kendall. "After I take care of the Stevens family, even if Rick were to protect you, it wouldn't be of any use, right? Furthermore, you're not my friend, so there's no need for me to let you off."

"But you didn't do anything to the Stevens family."

"If even you can see through it, your father and brother would have long since ruined my plans before they're even started." Charlotte chuckled.

Kendall didn't quite understand. She just bit her lip and stood there. She didn't know where to put her hands.

After a moment, Charlotte spoke again. "I have something to ask you."

"What is it?"

"Was it your idea or Christopher's for Rick to give false testimony?"

"Didn't he do it himself?"

Charlotte stared deeply at Kendall. Not a single trace of deception could be seen on Kendall's face. She was incomparably sincere, and there was even a tinge of surprise in her expression.

Upon getting her answer, Charlotte walked toward Shane. Kendall stood rooted to the spot for a moment before walking to Rick's side. "Rick, just now, Charlotte asked me if this was my idea or Christopher's for you to give false testimony. What does she mean by that?"

"It's all right." Rick touched her head and said, "What else did Charlotte say to you?"

"She said that she hasn't let me go. She's just dealing with the Stevens family first. When the Stevens family is ruined, it would be useless even if you were to protect me."

"That's her style."
