Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

“Shane is such a good boy. Come, let’s go have breakfast.”

Charlotte could only watch as Avery took Shane away. She massaged her temples and felt a sense of foreboding. Who would Shane trick? Would it be Avery, Rick, or…?

Forget it. She didn’t want to think about it. She couldn’t figure out 12-year-old Shane, let alone 30-year-old Shane. She’d rather pray that she wouldn’t be involved.

Slowly, Charlotte crept downstairs. She watched as Rick, Avery, and Braden teased Shane like they did a few days ago. She was petrified and dared not get close to them, fearing that someone would punish her along with them if he got angry.

“Can you all be nicer to Shane?” Charlotte only dared to give such a reminder. Because the moment she spoke, Shane’s cold gaze instantly turned towards her.

“But this is the perfect time to take revenge,” Rick said with a smile.

Charlotte subconsciously looked at Shane. He was eating while pretending that he didn’t understand those words… It gave Charlotte an appalling headache.

During the meal, Avery even mentioned the accident that happened to his big brother. Charlotte had originally wanted to stop him from telling the entire story, but luckily, Avery didn’t say anything about Augustus’s death. So, Charlotte was able to let out a sigh of relief.

However…

“Where is Augustus now?” Shane asked.

When 12-year-old Shane kept asking that, she was quite annoyed by it. But now that she knew that he was not the 12-year-old Shane, his words triggered goosebumps to scurry all over Charlotte’s body. She could not wait to find a place to bury herself alive.

“H-he is in X Country.” Avery immediately thought of a very suitable country. “He likes playing Go, so he moved to X Country. It is said that more people play Go in X Country and fewer people play Go in our country, so he went there. If you miss him, I can take you to see him.”

“Sounds good.”

Shane’s reply caused everyone’s gaze to focus on Avery, except for Charlotte, because she had already covered her entire face with her hands.

“Then I’ll give him a call,” Avery said and ran away.

Shane was still eating breakfast calmly as if he didn’t see through all that.

Charlotte sat on one side and frantically shoved eggs into her mouth. She was afraid that she might not be able to hold back and then reveal the truth.

“I’m full.” Shane stood up and went upstairs.

Charlotte immediately put down her cutlery and followed him.

Rick looked at Charlotte and Shane. After contemplating for a while, he leaned over to Kendall and said, “Don’t you feel that there’s something wrong with Shane and Charlotte?”

Kendall nodded and said, “For the past two days, Shane was the one who has been following Lottie around. But today, Lottie was the one who’s following Shane. Could it be that Shane has regained his memories?”

“That’s not possible. According to the report from the hospital, he won’t recover so fast.”

“Then… ”

“Charlotte must have done something that made him angry.” Rick found a great excuse for their behaviors.

Kendall blinked in confusion and thought, “But it seems kind of…”

Before Rick brought it up, she didn’t notice anything strange. But after he did, she started to see the peculiarity.

…

Charlotte followed Shane upstairs. After making sure that the door and windows were closed, she pulled Shane to sit on the sofa and said, “You already know that Augustus is dead, but you still asked Avery to find him for you. Where is he going to find a brother who has been dead for so many years? Avery was only around 10 when Augustus died, wasn’t he?”NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Shane nodded. “I’ve met him.”

“Then you…”

“It’s just self-defense.” Shane pulled her onto his lap and said, “Sit down.”

“I’m just curious. Why are you teasing Avery like that? Is it only because you want to take revenge on how he treated you the past two days?”

“Yes.”

Charlotte pursed her lips and said, “Now I finally know why men are all scumbags. You’re not telling the truth at all. You obviously don’t want to take revenge on them. Otherwise, you would have used a better method. Why do you have to use such an incompetent method? I suspect that the only purpose you mentioned Augustus was to test whether Avery still knows his brother well.”

It was simple but also complicated.

The simple part was that Shane wanted to test Avery. Avery didn’t understand why, but from the way he immediately made a phone call, he already knew that such a day would come because he was only waiting for Shane to mention Augustus. Although in his plan, Shane was still 12 years old. He knew he only wanted to see Augustus because of the childhood memories that they shared.

The complicated thing was Shane’s idea. He wanted to test Avery by speaking about Augustus. Charlotte thought, “Shane had tested Avery before, so this time, would it be another test or the last test?”

As Charlotte pondered on it, her thoughts had already traveled to somewhere far away.

“You’re half right.” Shane nodded his head lightly. “But the other half is that I’m still evaluating him.”

“So, it’s really an evaluation then? How many evaluations do you plan to do on him? Also, if you hadn’t lost your memory, what methods would you use to evaluate him?”

“I’ll come up with another method eventually.”

“That is to say your evaluation is not fixed but improvised?”

Shane nodded. He could guess what she was about to ask.

“Then have you ever evaluated me before?”

Sure enough, he knew she would ask such a question.

However, Shane didn’t feel like answering her question, and it didn’t make any sense. But his answer meant a lot to Charlotte. So, she asked again, “Shane, you don’t have to give me reasons. Just tell me if you have ever evaluated me.”

“No.”

“I don’t believe it. According to your character, how could you not have evaluated me when you’re doing it to Avery?”

He didn’t do it because she was Charlotte. Did she really think he was a cold-blooded monster? He was clearly fond of her, so why would he try to make things difficult for her?

If he was really such a person, why would she stay by his side until now? She would have run away a long time ago.

Charlotte didn’t believe Shane. But seeing that he didn’t have any intention of telling her, she didn’t ask more. After all, there wouldn’t make a difference whether she asked or didn’t.

They stayed in the bedroom and didn’t go out until the afternoon.

As soon as Charlotte went downstairs, Kendall came up to her and whispered in her ear, “Lottie, did you make Shane angry? I noticed that there’s a dramatic change in your attitude toward him. Previously, he was the one who followed you, but now it’s you who are following him.”

Of course she had to follow him.

However, it seemed unsuitable for Kendall to know the truth for now.

Charlotte hesitated for a moment before saying, “I’m sure you know that people have lust. Even though he’s twelve years old, his body is still the same.”

Upon hearing that, Shane, who was drinking juice with Sheryl, choked.

“Daddy, are you all right?”

“I’m fine.” Shane calmly replied, but his gaze fell on Charlotte’s slender waist.

She really hadn’t been touchy with him in the past two days. Even if she knew that he had regained his memory, she had not done anything to his body. He even suspected that she had lost interest in him.

Shane lowered his head and inspected his body.

His abs and pectoral muscles were still there, and the lines on his legs were no different from before. So, what was the problem?

“Uhm.” Kendall did not expect that that would be the truth. She lowered her voice embarrassedly and asked, “Then… does it feel the same as it did before he lost his memory?”

What?

Charlotte searched her mind for an answer.

She had no idea if it felt the same, but she knew that Rick might be in danger.
