Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte)

Chapter 242

On Wednesday was Sheryl's and Shane's operation day.

Charlotte woke up early in the morning and waited outside the operating room without letting Shane know. As soon as the door opened, she immediately stepped forward.

The extraction of bone marrow had no impact on the body of the donor, so Shane had already returned to normal by the time the door of the operating room opened.

"Why are you here?" Shane frowned when he saw that she was wearing thin clothes.

"I'm waiting for you to come out. Can I see Sheryl today?"

"I'm afraid not. She'll have to stay in the cleanroom for three months."

There was a hint of disappointment in Charlotte's eyes.

Shane raised his hand and glanced at his wristwatch. "Go back and pack up. Get ready to leave."

"Where are we going?"

"Traveling."

Shane led Charlotte to the car by Shane. She packed her suitcase in a state of stupefaction. It wasn't until she was on the plane that she finally snapped out of it-Shane was going to take her away from River City.

As the plane took off, the people on the road became smaller and smaller. In the end, they were like ants, and she could no longer find any trace of them.

She leaned against the window and looked at the runway. Her heart felt inexplicably empty, as if something had been lost.

Soon after, Braden told the media that Shane had gone abroad with Charlotte. This news was quickly spread throughout the public.

Christopher was sitting in the NC Company's committee chairman's office, looking at everything that he had dreamed of, but he didn’t feel happy at all.

He suddenly realized that NC Company was not a platform to Shane, but an obsession.

NC Company Shane's lifeblood, but his world held far more than the company.

Squeak—

"Hey, HR said to give this to you." Braden put the resignation letter on Christopher's desk.

"Are you leaving as well?"

Since Shane left, many shareholders and directors had left.

Even if they sold their stocks at a low price, they wanted to leave NC Company now that Shane was gone.

Christopher didn't understand why these people wouldn't stay, even though he had replaced Shane. NC Company had a bright future.

"Shouldn't you have expected me to leave?" Braden shrugged. "Anyone might leave, but I definitely will."

"You've been friends with him for so many years. But what about you and me?"

"The three of us have a great friendship, but, Christopher, you also know that my staying here is of no help to you."

"So it's even more unnecessary for you to leave." Christopher returned the resignation letter. "I won't accept this. No matter what, I won't let you leave NC Company."

Braden didn't expect Christopher to be so determined. He tilted his head and smiled. "Do you want to keep me with you?"

Christopher pushed the chair aside, strode to Braden's side, and held his shoulder tightly.

"Of..."

"Can you afford me?" Braden asked again.

"Braden, you look down on me too?" Christopher was furious.

His expression was ferocious and ugly.

Braden had never seen Christopher like this. He had always been gentle and polite to others.

But at the moment.

Braden subconsciously took a step back. He threw the resignation letter on Christopher's desk and turned to leave.

It was so scary. Even when Shane was angry, we wouldn't get physical. Even if he did get physical, he wouldn't hurt anyone. But Christopher...

Braden rubbed his shoulder. That really hurt.

Braden called Shane but no one picked up. So he could only call Charlotte to complain.

Charlotte had just finished her afternoon tea and was comfortably sitting on the balcony to bask in the sun. Just like that, Braden had broken her peace.

She had to listen to him talk a lot of nonsense.

"So Christopher bullied you?" Charlotte wasn't interested at first, but when she heard this news, she suddenly laughed.

"Wow, my God. Charlotte, you know when I called you just now, you weren't too happy about me bothering you. What's the matter now? You are laughing!"

"I feel that you're quite pitiful," Charlotte said with a serious expression.

Braden sighed. "Forget it. I know you don't care about my feelings at all."

"Actually, I don't mind you resigning. It's more than that now is not the right time. Your departure can be used as a trump card in the future."

"You mean you and Shane still have a plan to carry out in NC Company?"

"I don't know, but you don't pose any danger now. That's what I mean."

When he heard this, Braden fell silent.

Indeed.

If he left now, he would be useful to neither Christopher nor Shane.

"Alright, I'll listen to you. I won't resign."

Braden hung up the phone.

Just as Charlotte wanted to ask him about Anne, she looked at the dark screen and sighed.

Why was this guy so impatient?

"Who called?" Shane walked over with two cups of iced coffee in his hands. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

"Braden." Charlotte stretched out her hand and took one of the cups. "He wants to resign. I advised him not to."

"Good, you have done well."

"Do you have any ideas about NC Company after this?"

Shane didn't respond.

Charlotte took a sip of coffee and said, "Let me guess, you're waiting for me to get myself together. And then, you will make a request to cooperate. After that, you will help me take over the Emerson Corporation and be the man behind me?"

"If you want, I can do that."

"Why? I really don't understand. Why did you give the shares to Christopher?" Charlotte looked at him.

In fact.

In the past two days, she was still in a very bad mood.

But when she arrived at X Country, she got some domestic news.

Everyone said that Shane had given his shares to Christopher. Gradually, her thoughts were no longer swirling around Sheryl. Instead, she was thinking about what Shane would do.

And she still had some shares with her.

"The plan is very simple. At Anne's and Braden's wedding, you and Braden's will sell the shares in public, causing the stock price to collapse." Shane said without any emotion.

"That's NC Company. It's your lifeblood." Charlotte was stunned.

Was Shane so cruel to his company?

It was said that one's company was an entrepreneur's whole life, but Shane was not reluctant to part with it. Instead, he was thinking about how to make the company even worse.

"NC Company won't be useful in the near future."

"That's one of the best..."

"I intend to work on science and technology," Shane interrupted Charlotte.

Charlotte was stunned.

At present, science and technology was indeed a popular industry. However, no matter how popular an industry was, there would be a day when it stagnated. On the other hand, science technology had been popular for a long time. According to the trend, if there was no big explosion of advancement, the science and technology industry would only plateau.

And an explosion of advancement required favorable conditions. How much money would it cost and how much time would it take to wait for such a miracle? It was something that nobody knew for sure.

She lowered her head and took a sip of her iced coffee.

"It's within my expectations that you went into logistics. That is also an important factor."

"I know. It's essential to import parts from abroad."

"That's right."

"So you handed over NC Company just to switch industries? In other words, you don't need NC Company now, since the heavy workload will be a burden to you?"

Shane nodded in approval. "You're smart."

Charlotte really didn't expect the reason to be like this. She pretended to joke and said, "I've thought of countless reasons. I even thought that you did it for me. However, I never thought about this."

"It was because of many reasons."

"Shane, I must take revenge on Elaine." Charlotte stared at him seriously. Her exquisite eyes were filled with determination.

"I have already given my bone marrow to Sheryl." "I know."

"So, you are my wife. It's my business to help you." Charlotte felt like the world had suddenly become quiet.

She felt that this sentence, or other words like this, was something she seemed to have heard before.

Shane bent over and put his lips against her forehead. "Let's try it out."

"Try? Try what?"

"What do you think?"

His long fingers fell on her cheeks, and there was a bit of softness in his cold features.
