Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

After the short film ended, Charlotte turned to the press with a smile and said, “The short film has covered everything necessary. You’re welcome to ask any questions.”

“Mr. Emerson, may I ask how Braden and Anne got to know each other? Why would the two of them get together? Was it an arranged marriage or out of true love?” One of the reporters asked.

“Anne is a good friend of mine. She met Braden through a cocktail party she attended with me. They hit it off quite well so they got into a relationship not long after. They got engaged after their parents’ approval. So it’s true love and joining forces at the same time,” Charlotte’s answer was flawless.

She just changed the bar into a cocktail party. She also omitted the part where Braden’s parents were against their marriage when they thought she was just some woman, but changed their minds when they found out that she was Anne Jane.

Anyway, the media didn’t need to know every single detail.

“But Ms. Emerson, if it’s out of true love, why did Mr. Jane transfer his shares to Mr. Fuller? Was it merely because of trust?”

“Our plan initially was to let Mr. Fuller own a part of the Jane Corporation’s shares because he urgently needed some funds for a project he was working on. Mr. Jane just did it as a favour so it wasn’t a so-called collateral.”

“Mr. Fuller, what is your opinion on the Jane Corporation?”

“It’s suitable for investment. The prospects are good but there were too few products.”

As soon as he said those words, there was an uproar among the crowd.

A reporter stood up and asked tentatively, “Mr. Fuller, are you saying the Jane Corporation has a bright future here?”

Shane nodded.

At this time, Charlotte was completely stunned. She didn’t understand why Shane’s simple words sent those reporters into a fit.

Gradually, Shane became the centre of attention and Charlotte turned into a mascot as she stood there.

Three hours later, the press conference was over.

Charlotte and Shane walked out together.

“I feel like they don’t care about the Jane Corporation at all. They’re all asking you questions,” Charlotte said.

“Now you know why I called you?”

“Did you mean that you planned to use yourself as a distraction?”

Shane didn’t deny it.

Charlotte sighed and said softly, “Thank you, Mr. Fuller.”

Shane was about to speak when suddenly he saw some people running towards him. He instinctively pushed Charlotte behind his back.

Before Charlotte had time to react, she heard them say something around the lines of ‘get him.’ She was so scared, she started to scream.

Shane lowered his eyes and pulled Charlotte aside. He kicked off the person closest to him. “Go,” he ordered her.

Charlotte nodded. She knew that she would only drag him down if she stayed.

“I’m going to call the reporters.”

“Leaving?”

Another two people went around Charlotte and blocked her.

Who were these people?

“I heard that it was the two of you who put my brother in prison? I’ll be upfront, I’m not letting you go unless you sign this letter of understanding!”

Prison?

Letter of understanding?

Charlotte immediately realized that these people might have something to do with Blake.

She was afraid deep down but she remained calm to avoid any accidents.

It looked like there were around eight or nine people, not including the people she couldn’t see. Shane wouldn’t be able to fend off so many people no matter how tough he was.

“If you want a letter of understanding signed, you should look for the plaintiff. Rick Jane is at the hospital, why don’t you go find him?” Shane slowly approached Charlotte and grabbed her arm the moment he could.

“Don’t talk nonsense. The court said that you were the one who made the appeal! I don’t care how powerful or rich you are, I want my brother to be released from prison.”

“You said he’s your brother. Are you blood relatives?”

“What? You have a problem with that?”

Shane leaned towards Charlotte and whispered in a low voice, “How fast can you run?”

Charlotte nodded at him.

The man who asked for the letter of understanding pushed Charlotte and asked, “What are you talking about? Just sign the agreement. You can leave after giving me your signature. If not, hehehe, this lady here is not… Ah!”

Shane’s sudden movement caught everyone by surprise.

There were around 12 of them!Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Even the most irrational person would not dare to attack them.

However, Shane made his move.

He ran forward and fought off everyone who got in his way with Charlotte’s arm in one hand.

Shane estimated there were around ten people. Other than the leader, the others were scattered all over the place. So basically, there were only three to four people running in one direction.

He had no way to deal with ten people but he might be able to fight off three people in an instant.

However, Charlotte must be able to keep up with him.”

“F*ck, this b*stard actually dared to hit me. Get him and beat him to death!” The leader roared.

Charlotte was still in a daze. She didn’t understand what happened, she only knew to follow Shane.

She felt something was coming from behind. She couldn’t dodge it so she ran.

She didn’t know how long she had been running. But her lungs were burning by the time Shane finally stopped.

Charlotte bent over and coughed hard with her hands on her thighs. Her cheeks were flushed red.

“Are you okay?” Shane helped her up.

“I’m fine. It’s just that it’s been a long time since I’ve run so hard.” Charlotte struggled to straighten her body under his support.

Shane looked around and saw there was a supermarket.

He bought two bottles of water, opened one of them and handed it to her.

Charlotte took a sip and she gradually recovered. “Where is Blake Reau from? First, he hurt Rick so badly. Now, he hasn’t even been prosecuted and he has his crazy brother come after us.”

“I don’t know. He dared to kidnap Rick and come after us. At least that proves he has someone in the police department.”

“I don’t know much about the law…”

“He’s very powerful.”

Charlotte could understand these 3 words.

The two of them rested for a short while before the reporters caught up to them.

These reporters all disappeared when they were being attacked. Now that it was safe, they all appeared to get a piece of the news.

Charlotte posed for a picture with Shane without a second thought then bid goodbye.

…..

The story took a turn when she got home.

Somehow, the photos of her and Shane started to spread on the Internet. What’s worse, she was labelled as a mistress in the title of the article. They were instantly on the trending page.

Charlotte was so angry, she smashed her phone.

“Charlotte, I think it’s better for you to find my brother at this time,” Anne suggested in a low voice. “Even you are so mad. He may look gentle but he can be as ruthless as anyone else.”

That’s right.

She should go and find Rick.

Charlotte nodded. “I’ll go see him now. Anne, lend me your car.”

Anne looked for the key in a hurry. Braden stepped forward and grabbed her hand. “Well, Sheryl has her nanny and it’s quite late now. It’s not safe for Lottie to go alone. Let me drive you guys there. With Anne by his side, Rick may calm down a little.”

“Ah, yes, I almost forgot about Braden.” Anne gave him a hug. “You’re so reliable.”

“I’m sorry to bother you guys.”

“Don’t worry about it.” Braden smiled and scratched the back of his head. “It doesn’t matter if it’s Shane or Rick. One is my best friend, the other is my brother-in-law. I have to take care of both of them.”

Charlotte smiled weakly.

Anne could sense that she wasn’t in a good mood. She immediately piped in, “What Braden meant was Rick must miss us very much.”

Braden nodded quickly.

“I’m fine. I just didn’t expect those reporters to simply report the news. They were there when we were being pursued by the men.”

“These reporters don’t have a conscience,” Anne criticised angrily, “They’re all b*stards!”

Braden flinched a little, “They were just doing their jobs.”

“A job that goes against moral ethics isn’t a job! It’s taking advantage of others misfortune!” Anne was fuming with justice.
