Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Zoe slightly rolled her eyes. She never knew how to investigate people. She only saw it by accident. But how was she supposed to find a reasonable explanation for her action?

After many considerations, she nodded her head seriously and said, "I investigated you, Peter."

"Wow! You're so nice. Did you investigate me just to give me a surprise? That's so sweet. I love you."

Peter was as happy as a child and didn't seem to notice the problem in this matter at all.

He didn't notice it, but Charlotte had already discovered the problem in it. How could Zoe investigate Peter without the help of Peter? Moreover, it was not easy to investigate Peter's birthday. The connections to his parents and friends were completely missing. Even he himself couldn't find out. How could Zoe investigate him on her own?

But it was obvious that Zoe didn't want to tell everyone the truth. After Charlotte was sure about that, she just pretended that she knew nothing of it.

Zoe said what she wanted to say. She wanted to give Peter a surprise, and it was best for her not to

ruin it.

After eating lunch and the cake, Peter had no strength left to get up and leave. He only felt his stomach bulging from being too full. He was so tired that he just wanted to collapse on the sofa and have a good sleep.

"I'll let you guys take leave in the afternoon." Seeing him like this, it didn't feel right for Charlotte to continue being a heartless capitalist.

"Long live Ms. Emerson." Peter raised his arms to express his agreement. "That's awesome."

"You can go out and have fun together," she said.

Peter nodded with a smile.

To have fun was exactly what he wanted to do. He wanted to take Zoe to Avery's house too.

In the afternoon.

Peter and Zoe left the company. Charlotte handled the remaining work by herself. Although there weren't many things to settle, they were still heavier than usual work. It was already past seven o'clock when she finished almost everything. Only then did Charlotte have time to check her phone.

The first message was from Anne. She invited her to take a look at the church and the wedding hall that the designer decorated in two days.

Of course, Charlotte agreed. Anne would be getting married in a few more days, which was honestly pretty fast.

When it was time to get off work, the company's staff left one by one. When it was past six o'clock, the company was almost empty. Charlotte planned to get off work as well. She glanced at Shane. He was still reading a book while listening to music.
