Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

“Rick…”

Braden was shocked. He thought that since he had been with Shane for so long, he had long been accustomed to sharp glares. He did not expect there to be someone in this world who had a colder gaze than Shane’s.

He didn’t expect that his wife’s older brother would be so tough under that gentle appearance of his.

Charlotte noticed that something wasn’t right between the two of them. She coughed lightly and said, “Actually, I had the same thought as well. In order to help me become Jane Corporation’s local CEO, Rick must have given up something. So, I will work even harder and never back down.”

Rick withdrew his gaze. As his lips quirked up, his attractive orbs were curved into a gentle arc. “I’m looking forward to your growth and performance.”

“I won’t let you down,” Charlotte said, determined.

Braden closed his eyes again to rest.

He really didn’t expect that Charlotte’s will to fight would actually be ignited.

Soon, the plane landed.

Charlotte was holding Sheryl in her arms, so it was very difficult for her to hold her suitcase. Rick grabbed the handle of her suitcase naturally and said, “The company is selecting locations these few days, so I will be quite busy.”

“Alright,” Charlotte replied.

“Do you have any requirements for places to stay?”

“We… together?” Charlotte was stunned.

“It will be more convenient for us to book a place together, and we can also save travelling time,” Rick said.

Charlotte fell silent. She felt that it was quite reasonable, but it was a little weird no matter how she thought about it.

Anne, who was beside them, said, “Why don’t you stay at home?”

“It’s too far, the house is in the suburbs.”

“I have a house in the city center.”

Everyone’s eyes fell immediately on Braden.

His lips quirked lazily into a playful smile and said, “What’s wrong? Are you surprised? I’m still the son of a rich man, after all.”

Rick slightly shook his head and said, “You don’t have to help us.”

“Anne is my wife. There’s nothing wrong with me helping out my brother-in-law. Perhaps, do you not dare to stay with Charlotte in my house? Are you daunted?”

“Braden?” Anne was not happy.

“Honey, I’m being considerate of your best friend. Think about it. It’s impossible for them, an unmarried man and woman to rent a house alone together.” Braden smiled, showing his white teeth.

Anne fell silent. If Lottie and her brother were lovers, it was needless to say. However, they were not.

Charlotte felt that this idea was not bad. “This is alright for me. It’s a very happy thing for me to live with my bestie.”

Braden snapped his fingers and said, “That’s right. Mr Rick, it seems that the two ladies have no objection. What about you?”

“I have three conditions.”

“Oh?”

“First, you can’t tell Shane that we’re staying at your house.”

Braden narrowed his eyes. “What if I refuse?”

Rick curled his lips. He leaned to one side and held Sheryl in his arms. “Before returning home, I investigated and found that there’s a villa available for rent with a nice kindergarten next to it.”

Of course, he had done research beforehand.

Looking at the man beside her, Charlotte felt a sense of indescribable fear.

Especially when she saw the gentle smile on his face, she couldn’t help but feel nervous.

She couldn’t help but think of Shane. That man was strong as well, but he always kept a cold demeanour, which made it easier to get used to him.

Sheryl waved her hand and said, “Are there a lot of cute children in kindergarten?”

“Yes, does Sheryl like it? Do you want to go?”NôvelDrama.Org © content.

“Yes, I want to! But mommy said that Sheryl is not in good health…” Sheryl lowered her head.

“Huh?”

Rick looked at Charlotte.

Charlotte paused awkwardly, then lowered her head and said nothing.

Now Braden felt uneasy. He muttered, “Fine. I won’t tell Shane. Just tell me the other conditions.”

“Secondly, don’t talk about anything business-related at home.”

“Nonsense, I don’t want you to know anything about NC either.”

“Thirdly, based on the first two points, I am not familiar with things locally, and Lottie and Anne have just come back, so you need to look for a reliable butler to settle everything…”

Braden clenched his fists in anger. “I think of you as my brother-in-law, and you treat me as an errand boy?”

Rick couldn’t help but laugh.

Anne poked Braden with her finger and said in a low voice, “My brother is afraid if he hires someone who has accidentally offended you, so he wants you to find someone. As long as that person has nothing to do with Shane, and doesn’t talk about business-related stuff.”

“Why is he afraid of offending me?”

“His butlers are all quite arrogant,” Anne answered awkwardly.

Charlotte suddenly remembered that she had met one when she went to visit Anne overseas. The butler always had a scary, cold expression on, and spoke little. It was said that he could speak five languages and had a very good relationship with Rick.

But to be honest, she didn’t think of him as the butler. He was more like a boss.

Braden didn’t believe her at first, but he did once he saw Charlotte’s expression that read “let’s not talk about the past”.

“Then let’s separate first. I’ll ask someone to clean the villa. When everything is done, I will send you the address?” Braden asked.

“Alright.” Rick agreed.

Anne took over Sheryl and her luggage and reluctantly said goodbye to Charlotte.

Braden was speechless. “You won’t see each other for only a short time. What’s the point of saying goodbye to each other so sentimentally?”

“You don’t understand girls.”

Braden was speechless.

He used to be a playboy loved by everyone, but he was willing to do anything for her.

But she said that he didn’t understand girls.

Braden felt that his many years of experience in dating had been denied by Anne with just one word. He could not refute it, however, so he could only gloomily touch his nose and lead her to the parking lot.

He kept repeating in his heart that his wife was most important.

On the other side.

Rick’s special assistant had already rented two cars and was waiting for them at the VIP passage.

“Mr Jane, this car is a Tesla newly released in the country, which is powered by electricity. It should have no problem lasting for ten hours.” The special assistant explained.

“Alright.”

“The other is our company car. Since we have made an appointment to discuss cooperation with another local company, I won’t be able to take care of you today. If you need anything, please call us as soon as possible.” The special assistant bowed, the two secretaries by his side.

“Go ahead.”

“Yes, sir.”

Rick led Charlotte to the side of the car and opened the car door considerately. “Is the front passenger seat alright?”

Charlotte nodded and entered the car.

Rick drove very steadily, and Charlotte fell asleep after a short while.

She didn’t know how much time had passed before she suddenly felt a strong crash. She opened her eyes, but before she could see clearly, another wave of darkness came over her.

She struggled to extend her hand and prop herself up.

“Rick? Are you alright?” She asked the man beside her.

She received no response.

Charlotte became anxious. She didn’t know where the strength came from, but her originally weak arm was suddenly filled with strength, and she managed to support herself up.

Only then did she notice that a truck had rammed into the back of a car, causing all the cars to crash against the cars in front of them like dominoes.

The last car was in extremely bad condition. Their condition was considered not bad, but the whole back seat had been destroyed.

If the impact was a little harder, no one would know what would happen to her and Rick.

Charlotte withdrew her gaze and shook the man beside her. “Rick?”

Rick’s eyes were tightly shut and his face was deathly pale. There was not a single trace of red on his lips. Charlotte pushed his shoulder forcefully and pulled him away from the steering wheel.

“Rick, wake up, Rick!”

Rick’s eyelashes trembled, and he slowly opened his eyes. “Lottie.”

“Are you feeling any discomfort?”

Rick shook his head and propped himself up. Then, he felt a chill on his lower abdomen.

It was actually not a big deal. He seemed to have gotten a scratch by the ornaments on the steering wheel, and the wound was not deep.

However, this amount of blood frightened Charlotte. “I’m going down to look for someone to help right now. Wait a minute!”

However.

There was no one else around.

Charlotte stood beside the car, frozen in shock.

The ground was littered with shattered steel, flesh and blood…

“Is this hell?” Charlotte thought.

She could not help but double over and retch.
