Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

"I meant if you got lost," Rick said helplessly. Between them, there was nothing about whether they wanted each other or not. Regardless of anything, it was difficult for them to be separated from each other. The only reason why he said that he was afraid of her leaving was probably because she got lost.

Rick thought that way, but he didn't know how much Kendall would understand or what she could understand. He didn't know if he expressed himself accurately.

Kendall tilted her head and thought for a while. Then, he suddenly smiled. "Oh, right. That's true. What if I get lost? I have to try my best to survive in the same spot and wait for you to come back to pick me up."

"Yeah." Rick stretched out his hand and grabbed her wrist. "Let's go."

"Alright."

Rick took Kendall one floor down for a walk. This time Kendall did not want to buy anything. She just followed him, just window shopping.

Rick originally wanted to buy her some daily necessities or cosmetics, but seeing that she herself didn't have any opinions, he stopped worrying about it.

After a while, they left the shopping mall and went home. After Rick got in the car, he took out his phone. After he thought for a moment, he dialed Shane's number. He initially wanted to call Charlotte, but he thought that it was better for them to avoid arousing suspicion. So he called Shane instead.

Soon, Shane picked up the phone. "Yes?"

Shane's clear and familiar voice sounded in his ears. Rick raised his hand and rubbed his ears. He was not used to hearing Shane's voice. "Caleb called Kendall just now and said that Avery was injured. He asked if we wanted to see him, but I refused. I want to know if you know about this."

"No." Shane paused and added, "Or I don't know, at least."

Shane didn't know, much less anyone else. After Rick thanked him, he looked at the phone for a while and then called Peter. The answer Peter gave was almost the same. He didn't know about this news either.

That meant that Avery might really be injured, but no one knew about it. But it was also possible that Caleb was trying to trick him.

But no matter which it was, it was always the best to stay calm. In any case, he had no experience or time to help Avery.

Back at home, Rick leaned against the window seat and closed his eyes to rest. Kendall was by his side. He suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled her to him. Kendall lost her balance and fell directly into his embrace. Her whole body lay on top of him, and the distance between the two instantly became very small.
