Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

"Shane is such a good boy. Come, let's go have breakfast."

Charlotte could only watch as Avery took Shane away. She massaged her temples and felt a sense of foreboding. Who would Shane trick? Would it be Avery, Rick, or...?

Forget it. She didn't want to think about it. She couldn't figure out 12-year-old Shane, let alone 30-year-old Shane. She'd rather pray that she wouldn't be involved.

Slowly, Charlotte crept downstairs. She watched as Rick, Avery, and Braden teased Shane like they did a few days ago. She was petrified and dared not get close to them, fearing that someone would punish her along with them if he got angry.

"Can you all be nicer to Shane?" Charlotte only dared to give such a reminder. Because the moment she spoke, Shane's cold gaze instantly turned towards her.

"But this is the perfect time to take revenge," Rick said with a smile.

Charlotte subconsciously looked at Shane. He was eating while pretending that he didn't understand those words... It gave Charlotte an appalling headache.

During the meal, Avery even mentioned the accident that happened to his big brother. Charlotte had originally wanted to stop him from telling the entire story, but luckily, Avery didn't say anything about Augustus's death. So, Charlotte was able to let out a sigh of relief.

However...

"Where is Augustus now?" Shane asked.

When 12-year-old Shane kept asking that, she was quite annoyed by it. But now that she knew that he was not the 12-year-old Shane, his words triggered goosebumps to scurry all over Charlotte's body. She could not wait to find a place to bury herself alive.

"H-he is in X Country." Avery immediately thought of a very suitable country. "He likes playing Go, so he moved to X Country. It is said that more people play Go in X Country and fewer people play Go in our country, so he went there. If you miss him, I can take you to see him."

"Sounds good."

Shane's reply caused everyone's gaze to focus on Avery, except for Charlotte, because she had already covered her entire face with her hands.

"Then I'll give him a call," Avery said and ran away.

Shane was still eating breakfast calmly as if he didn't see through all that.

Charlotte sat on one side and frantically shoved eggs into her mouth. She was afraid that she might not be able to hold back and then reveal the truth.
