Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 92

"Charlotte!"

Shane didn't understand why his heart suddenly ached. Could it be it was really just as Henry had said? Was this girl different from the others?

"I'm going to be late!"

Charlotte suddenly glanced at the clock hanging on the wall and jumped off the bed in a panic. She didn't even bother to look at Shane's face which was getting darker by the moment.

It was her first day working at the Emerson Corporation!

"Mommy, be careful."

Sheryl put her hand on her forehead helplessly and thought, 'Mommy really makes people worry.'

As soon as she walked out of the villa, she noticed a serious problem: She didn't seem to have a car.

It takes about half an hour to get to the Emerson Corporation by car. Besides, this area was surrounded by high-end cars, not a single taxi was in sight.

"Mommy, get in the car."

Sheryl waved at the woman outside the villa excitedly. Her face looked out of the window from the car.

"Mr. Fu... Shane."

Charlotte stared at the good- looking man inside the car awkwardly. She lowered her head and remained still.

"Are you getting in?"

Shane glanced at the woman outside the car from the corner of his eye, his lips twitched slightly.

"Where are you going?"

"Mommy, daddy will take me to the kindergarten. He'll send you to your company on the way." With disdain, Sheryl looked at her mom who was standing outside the window like a fool.

Charlotte looked at the long road then at her phone hesitantly. She decided to be reasonable. She was about to open the backseat door but was interrupted by Shane's voice.

"Take the front seat."

Charlotte wanted to refuse but Sheryl had quickly shut the door she had opened. She had no choice but to climb in the passenger seat in front.

The car maintained a steady speed while Charlotte glanced at Shane from time to time. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She was fully aware that everyone in the city was desperate to marry into the Fuller residence. However, she was the first to marry him. She couldn't be bothered by the future, as long as this man can help her get what she wants.

"Stop here."

It didn't take long for her to see the Emerson Corporation's large signboard. Charlotte couldn't help but grumble inwardly, 'As expected, the Emerson Corporation had gained stability in the past few years.'

"What?"

Shane raised his eyebrows skeptically but still complied and stopped the car at the side of the road.

"I don't want anyone to know about our relationship."

Charlotte had no choice but to be honest under his intense gaze. She felt he was able to see through her thoughts.

"Why? Being Mrs. Fuller will help you avoid a lot of trouble."

Shane crossed his long legs, the spacious chair still seemed to be crammed.

"I don't like it. I don't like to show off my identity. It will just bring me more discomfort.

Charlotte noticed that the car had stopped, so she opened the car door and got off. As she left, she turned to wave towards them.

Shane watched in confusion at the woman carrying her bag. The corners of his mouth quirked up noticeably.

At the corner not far away, a vicious gaze was fixed on Lottie's back the whole time.

If Elaine hadn't been pestered by Alistair to buy pancakes from this stall, she would've missed out on this scene.

In the Emerson Corporation.

Charlotte had just arrived at the company's main hall when she was stopped by the receptionist.

"Do you have an appointment?"

The receptionist asked Charlotte with a business-like tone.

"No, I don't..."

"If not, you'll have to leave." The receptionist stared at Charlotte arrogantly. Charlotte had no intention to leave.

"It's my first day at work."

Charlotte tried her best to calm down. She had already entered the company. If Elaine were to know she was denied entry by her own company, who knows what kind of scene will she make?

"Your first day of work? I've not received any news that the Emerson Corporation was recruiting people."

"It's indeed her first day at work."

Suddenly, there was a familiar voice from the entrance of the company which made Charlotte feel like double- checking her schedule the next time she headed out.

Why did she run into her every single time? The Emerson Corporation is quite a big company too...

"Director Emerson, you're here early?"

Charlotte noticed the flattering look the receptionist gave Elaine, she couldn't help but smile scornfully.

"Well, it's such a coincidence that I came earlier. Am I right, Lottie."

Elaine's gaze had been fixed on Charlotte the entire time.

Her pantsuit highlighted Charlotte's good figure perfectly. Elaine couldn't help but feel crazy jealous of her.

"Director Emerson, I didn't know you both knew each other. Please, go in quickly."

Charlotte walked into the elevator without batting an eyelid. As the elevator doors closed, it was quickly pulled open by Elaine.

"Lottie, we are both working in the same company. We are going to see each other all the time. Don't make it awkward for everyone."

Elaine's eyes were filled with sarcasm. As the elegant woman before her did not pay her any attention, she continued, "You're now a designer in the Emerson Corporation and I am the design director."

"What are you trying to say?"

Charlotte looked at the woman coldly. Elaine wasn't about to shut her mouth. When the elevator reached the twelfth floor, she slowly walked out.

"Elaine Lane, this is the Emerson Corporation, not the Lane Corporation. You'd better figure it out."

"How dare you!"

Elaine's make-up caked face twisted uglily. As Charlotte disappeared down the corridor, a malicious glint flashed through her eyes.

Charlotte, since you dug your own grave, don't blame me for being too heartless.

As for the Emerson Corporation, it will become the Lane Corporation sooner or later.

"Hello, I'm new here."

Charlotte looked at the woman in the assistant's office with a blank face.

"Okay, wait for a moment. Director Emerson will take you to the design department."

The assistant didn't even raise her head as she continued to work.

Charlotte stared at Elaine as she walked closer. She bit her lips but remained silent.

"Let's go, Lottie."

Elaine swayed her waist and looked at Charlotte with a hint of disdain.

She had always been jealous of Charlotte's good background and looks that could attract any man.

Charlotte stood at the entrance of the design department at the Emerson Corporation. She looked at the dozens of people in the office and took in a deep breath.

This was the perfect place for her to prove her worth in the future!

"Everyone please take a minute."

Elaine clapped her hands. Charlotte furrowed her eyebrows at her tender tone.

"This is the newcomer- designer, as well as the chief designer. If you have any questions, you can ask her."

Elaine calmly averted everyone's confused and puzzled eyes and smiled at Charlotte who was beside her. "Is that fine, Lottie?"

Charlotte didn't even bother to look at her from the start to the end. She walked straight to the empty desk.

It's afternoon and Charlotte has yet to receive any workload but she didn't find it strange.

She had just arrived at Emerson Corporation so she was not familiar with everything...

"Director Emerson, why is she able to become the chief designer as soon as she came here? She's just a newcomer."

At this time, in the main office, Elaine smiled as she listened to the words of the woman before her.

This was exactly in accordance with her plans.

"If you have the ability, you can also become a chief designer."
