Single Mom's Sweet Husband by Charlotte

Cole looked down at Peter and shook his head. "It's hard to say for now. But even if someone rich wanted to hurt Mr. Fuller, someone poor would execute it. In other words, all the workers here will be removed." "Did Charlotte agree to this?" "She doesn't know about this." Zoe smiled and shook her head. "You and Mr. Fuller are really arrogant. Clearly, you have a better way to solve this." "It's safer." The business industry was cruel and cold. Even if they had a better way, they would be willing to end everything just for the sake of safety. They seem to have no sentiment towards these workers. They can be easily sacrificed like grass.

Their lives were worth nothing. But Shane would arrange better jobs for them after ensuring they were not involved in this.

Soon, Cole's men caught four people, which were more than they thought. He asked his men to look after Zoe and Peter for the moment.

Outside the hospital ward, people walked back and forth. They were all bodyguards asked to guard them. "Now I know what he meant just now. Even we are just chess pieces in his eyes," Peter said sullenly. "It's also for our safety." "Zoe, I've once heard of a joke. A blogger said she loved cats. Someone in the comments asked her, if someone said they loved you but decides what you ate every day and whether you can have kids, would you want to be with him? That blogger said she would be sick of him. Then, the person replied that her cat would be sick of her too." Zoe laughed. It was indeed a good joke.

Peter sat down at the bed and crossed his arm when he noticed her mood turned better. "So you see, they did this for our safety but they've never asked for our opinion before." "You seem to have a lot of resentment towards Cole." "We are all poor people." "We are not." Zoe's words stunned Peter.

He wanted to respond but after sthought about his situation and all the money he had, he was speechless.

Zoe continued, "We weren't even born in poor families. We've never lived a poor life. Most of these workers cfrom the streets, where they hardly have any money." "I..." "Your opinion isn't wrong and neither is Cole's. But if everyone thinks the sway as Cole, society would be cruel towards poor people instead of helping them. So, you are right." Peter nodded, not fully understanding. He didn't know if he was right but he knew Zoe was right.

Half an hour later.

Charlotte pushed open the doors. The moment she saw Zoe safe and sound, her eyes turned red and she ran to hug her. "I was scared to death." Zoe and Peter were shocked. Zoe reacted quickly and hugged her back. "I'm fine." "I heard the explosion and that you guys were coming downstairs so I rushed towards here. Shen didn't make it clear either. He only toldyou guys didn't get in the car when I got downstairs," Charlotte sobbed.

God knew how scared she was. She was afraid to see two bodies when she arrived at the hospital.

She hadn't been so scared before. But after what happened at the police station, she was really afraid of burnt bodies.

Zoe smiled and said, "Mr. Fuller will definitely protect us. After all, he needs us to make money." Upon hearing this, Charlotte hit her on the shoulder. "We're friends, don't talk about money with me. I'll get mad next time." "You mean, Cole and Shane hid their plans from you?" Peter asked incredulously. They even lied to Charlotte? Wasn't this matter also related to her? "Yeah, they've gone too far." Charlotte sighed. "But they had no choice, one more person involved would mean more collateral. At least they've already caught the culprit. Now we just have to interrogate them to find out who was behind this." "Then, now we..." "Let's go eat something," Charlotte said with a smile. "Since they're already caught someone." Shane didn't want her to go but she was mad at him so she didn't listen to him at all. Besides, they've already caught the attackers, he had no reason to stop them so he let them go.

Charlotte brought the two of them to a popular restaurant nearby. After waiting for an hour, they were finally seated.

The three of them were so hungry that they ordered a lot of dishes.

Halfway through the meal, Peter asked Peter tentatively, "Ms. Emerson, do you have any idea who did this?" "It's a few workers. They seem to be unhappy with how the situation was handled. But Cole and Shane think the Hart family might be behind it," Charlotte explained.

"What are they planning to do with them?" Zoe glanced at Peter, hinting at him to stop asking questions and stir up trouble.

Charlotte shook her head. "We don't know yet but we have to interrogate them. Even if they don't do it, the police will do it. Besides, this matter is directly related to Mielle and Avery, they won't let this go." Zoe really did not expect Charlotte had thought everything through. However, Peter couldn't give up and he continued, "What about after?" "Shane will deal with it. Those workers with no issues would work at his friend's company. As for those who were involved, they would be handed over to the police. I don't think we should deal with this personally since the court will sentence them to life in prison," Charlotte said.

She wanted to draw a clear line between kindness and hatred. It was one thing for them to get along with each other but it was another for them to kill her.

Peter blinked and asked, "Didn't you have a good relationship with them?" "Did they consider that fact when they tried to kill me?" Charlotte retorted.

Charlotte and Peter stared at each other. Suddenly, Peter broke into a smile, "I think I'm a fool for being concerned about this issue." Charlotte didn't know what he was concerned about so she just tilted her head but Zoe sighed.

A moment later, Peter left the table to get scondiments.

"What's wrong with him?" Charlotte looked at Zoe blankly.

"When Cole mentioned the workers, he described them as 'poor people.' Maybe these words triggered him." "They are quite pitiful but we have no choice. We had to be responsible for our own safety." Zoe nodded. She could understand that but she was worried Peter might not accept it so easily.

After all, in his opinion, Cole and Shane acted with arrogance while the workers were had to suffnocent people who would even be willing to do anything extreme. But, what they did was indeed wrong and extreme. After the meal, Charlotte took Zoe shopping again. She tried to fit in everything she wanted to do on the last day.

In the evening, they flew back to River City without having dinner.

Cole called the local government on the way hto require transport for all the workers so they could go through the lawsuit. It was the cheapest method. Charlotte stood beside him with a can of coffee in her hands. "Cole, get srest." Cole took the coffee and smiled at her. "Miss Charlotte, thank you."

"You're welcome. I just wanted to ask you, a worker's brother died in an accident. How is he?" Charlotte sat down beside Cole. "He clooking forbefore and I also told Shane about it. However, we both didn't think much of it." Perhaps it had something to do with him.

That was what Charlotte thought.
