Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Zoe picked up the phone. Her expression changed after hearing Avery's words. She turned on the speakerphone and put the device on the table.

"Now Shane is not a hindrance at all. As long as we contact Christopher and use NC Company to drive the Jane Corporation out of River City, we can control River City sooner or later. This..." About ten minutes later.

On Avery's end, he pressed the stop button on the listening device. He tidied up the files, and the papers made ssoft shushing noises.

"I thought after getting so many hours of breathing noises, Kendall must have left the clothes at hor sent them the laundry." Avery's voice sounded from the other end.

It was rare for Zoe and Peter to hear his serious voice. The both of them were not used to it at all.

"However, when I checked again today, I found something different than usual. After I turned up the volume, I found this ten-minute conversation." "Avery, have you told Mr. Fuller and Ms. Emerson about this?" Peter asked.

"Not yet. Shane doesn't want Charlotte to get involved in this matter. After I tell her, other than sending resources, she'll just get you to investigate this matter. So, I might as well cdirectly to you," Avery said with a self-deprecating smile.

He also wanted to find those two people, but now the information was not complete. There was no definite evidence to prove that Christopher was in contact with the Stevens family.

What's more, Christopher was Shane's friend. No matter what, Shane and Charlotte not knowing would only be beneficial in solving this matter.

Peter's expression darkened. "I see. I'll start the investigation now." "However, I am very curious about why you two are together. I originally wanted to contact you through Zoe, but I didn't expect that she would savethe trouble." Peter's lips thinned in dissatisfaction. "Why can't I be with her?" Avery was stunned at first. After he noticed Peter's hostility, he laughed. "Don't be so nervous. The person I care about has always been Irena. If Zoe didn't look like Irena, I won't care too much about her. You don't have to be so hostile to me." "Your words that mademisunderstand." "What should I say then? In my opinion, Zoe may not dislike you, but you are definitely not the first type of person she would choose as a boyfriend." "You..." Peter was angry.

"Anyway, remember what you promised me. I will go back to my city. I still have scontracts to settle on the way too. I don't have so much tto keep an eye on the Stevens family. Peter, I can send you and Zoe sprivate funds. I know that you are short of money." After he said that, Avery hung up the phone.

Peter silently stared at the phone with a dark light in his eyes. He was very unhappy.

"Peter, if you don't want to help Avery, you don't have to force yourself." "It's not that I don't want to help him, but I don't understand why all of you think I'm not suitable for you?" Peter turned her head and looked at Zoe. The remaining warmth in his heart disappeared right away.

He even felt a dull ache in his heart.

Zoe didn't know how to answer. After all, in her heart, the person who liked and wanted to be with her most had always been Christopher.

But because of their current conditions, they could no longer have such feelings between them.

But just because it couldn't happen didn't mean she didn't have those feelings anymore.

Peter didn't get an answer, but he understood what she was thinking. He stood up with a smile and said, "I know. It's okay. I'm not forcing you. I just don't want to face the truth so soon. I'll go upstairs and get information for Avery. Today's dinner was delicious. Thank you." Zoe watched his thin back and sighed.

Since she moved in with Peter, their efficiency had increased.

Charlotte flipped through the report that the two of them sent to her email.

Recently, the company had made a lot of money, but they still needed stbefore the company broke even. She felt very proud to see so many people working at the company.

Knock! Knock! Knock! "Enter." Charlotte did not even raise her head as she replied.

"Ms. Emerson, the Jane Corporation's Mr. Jane has cto visit. He said that he has something to discuss with you." The assistant stood outside the door respectfully. Rick Jane? Charlotte paused in flipping through the report.

"Who are you talking about?" "Mr. Jane of the Jane Corporation." Charlotte stood up and walked towards the conference room.

Along the way, she was thinking, "Why is Rick looking for me?" They weren't of any use to each other. She stopped targeting the Jane Corporation and the Emerson Corporation because of the situation with the Stevens family. She was focusing on her own company. Considering these circumstances, Rick had no reason to look for her.

Charlotte pushed open the door to the conference room. Not only did Rick and his assistant come, but there were also a few others that she had never seen before. However, they seemed to be newcomers of the company's negotiation team.

The negotiation team.

Charlotte pulled out the chair and sat down. Her slender fingers laced together as she placed them on the table. With a burning gaze, she looked at the group of people across from her.

"Mr. Jane, I'm surprised to see you. Why don't you speak plainly?" "After you obtained the last project, you've improved a lot in the industry. Recently, we have received a batch of goods. It's 200,000 tons of maple syrup. Most companies can't handle it." Rick snapped his fingers, and then one of the members of the negotiation group immediately handed her a document.

Charlotte took it, flipped through spages, and said with a light smile, "In addition to maple syrup, there are also special ingredients to make muffins. It seems that this tthe Jane Corporation wants to get into the snacks industry?" "Something like that. In addition to this, there are a lot of meat products that your company will have to handle." "I don't accept this rate." Charlotte immediately closed the document and threw it back in an aggressive manner, "Do you think that I don't know the cost and current market price?" "You can nyour price, Ms. Emerson."

"The lowest price on the market is three dollars a ton, but you can only transport ten tons at a tYour first price is 200,000 dollars..." Charlotte shook her head. "I don't think that you're here to do business. Instead, you're here to make trouble." "Ms. Emerson, do you mean that we can't cooperate with each other?" Rick looked at her with a smile.

Charlotte Emerson.

She had becan equal, a businesswoman that he had to be careful not to be used by.

In the past, he didn't even have to look at her to guess what she was thinking. Now, he couldn't even guess. He didn't even know what price to quote her.

He originally thought that since Shane wasn't in the company, Charlotte would be in a state of ignorance. He didn't expec¤her to know exactly how much she had to charge for a few tons. That was his mistake. "We can collaborate. Six dollars for one ton. With 200,000 tons, that's 1.2 million dollars." Charlotte's body leaned forward slightly. "The market price is three dollars, but you want to chargedouble?" Rick smiled bitterly.

"Sure. Like you said, no one in River City can transport your goods except us, isn't that right?" Rick stared at Charlotte. The corner of his mouth twitched, revealing a bitter smile. "Lottie, five dollars and I'll leave them all to you." "Alright, let's sign the contract." Charlotte stood up decisively.

Rick sighed.

"By the way, if you can't finish the 200,000 tons of maple syrup, you can still sell it to others. But with meat sgeasy.

products, it's not so easy. Youren buying 200,000 tons at a time, which can cost up to 600 million dollars. It's difficult to store, and will be a big problem if you can't sell it. It's not so easy to do in this line of work." After she said that, Charlotte took her belongings and left the reception room. Rick looked at her retreating back and couldn't look away for a long time. He couldn't calm the feelings in his heart.

His assistant leaned forward and approached Rick. "Mr. Jane, Miss Charlotte is not what she used to be. If we cooperate with her, it may not be safe for us." "Other than us cooperating with her, what else can I do now? Do I really have to watch the Stevens family take over all our businesses?" Rick asked his assistant. "In any case, you can always look for..." "If things have cto that point, I would rather the Stevens family take us over." The assistant sighed.

"You shouldn't have given false evidence." The assistant sighed.
