Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 21

Charlotte's words instantly cleared everyone's mind off chaos.

Upon seeing this, the corners of Shane's mouth curved upward slightly. His interest in Charlotte grew by the minute.

Once she asserted her dominance, she seemed quite... cute.

Elaine had not expected Charlotte to have the gift of the gab. She dug her fingernails into her palms and her vicious gaze swept past Charlotte. She glared at the servant and asked, "What's going on? How dare you frame a guest of the Emerson family?

"Take her away, we don't need such a servant in the Emerson Residence!"

As Elaine finished, she frowned and looked at Charlotte. She pretended to hesitate before saying, "Miss, I'm sorry that I misunderstood you. But all the guests invited this time are people I personally know. Your invitation is for the second young lady of the Jane family, but you're not her..."

Seeing Elaine trying to stir up more trouble, Charlotte couldn't help but scoff in her heart.

'Since that's the case, I'll also show you what I'm capable of!' Charlotte thought.

"I am indeed not the second young lady of the Jane family. Sadly, she can't come due to an overlap in her schedule, but she felt it would be impolite to not show up at all. It happened that I have some relations with the Emerson family, so she had me replace her."

When Charlotte was done, Elaine's face turned bitter.

The hall fell into silence.

'Relations?' The same thought flashed through everyone's heads.

Everyone couldn't help but wonder about the relationship between Charlotte and the Emerson family.

"Haha, since the misunderstanding has been resolved, everyone, let's not just stand there. Please proceed to the front hall for refreshments." Elaine was afraid that Charlotte would leak the truth.

Therefore, with a smile, she immediately asked them to leave.

The guests were all vigilant people. Naturally, they left one after another for Elaine's sake.

After the incident was over, Shane left calmly.

However, before he left, he gave Charlotte a meaningful glance. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

It seemed that things were much more interesting than he had thought.

"Charlotte, if you want to come back, you can come back in broad daylight instead of coming back like this and making a fool of yourself. What will others think of the Emerson family?"

When it was only the two of them left, Elaine reprimanded in a disdainful tone.

It was worth noting that Charlotte's appearance had really brought embarrassment to her.

"Haha, if you hadn't provoked me, I wouldn't have turned your banquet upsidedown," Charlotte said in a cold voice.

She had planned to return solely for her mother's belongings, but Elaine plotted something against her. It was infuriating.

However, since things had turned out like this, she more or less knew that she would not be able to leave with what she wanted. She could only wait for the next opportunity.

"Wait a minute. How are you associated with Shane?"

Seeing that Charlotte was about to leave, Elaine hurriedly stopped her.

"Employer-employee relationship, anything of concern?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Elaine inspected Charlotte's expression and could tell that she was not lying. She turned and sashayed past Charlotte in slight embarrassment.

Charlotte was a little perturbed as to the reason behind Elaine's question.

However, what disoriented her more was the fact that Shane actually helped her, an outsider, on such an occasion.

Was it simply because she was his employee?
