1. A Spinster

Manhattan, New York“You don't earn much and you're already 32. You'd better get married before you become a spinster.”The long, curly-haired woman named Barbara sighed in exasperation as she glanced at her daughter, Charlotte, who was about to leave for work.“I'm tired of people calling you a ‘spinster’. Besides, if you get married, your husband can help give me some extra money,” she continued lightlyCharlotte was silent, with no intention of replying to her mother. Instead, she wanted to leave, but then her father's voice reached her.“If you can't find a husband, I'll find one for you. You just have to accept it,” Charles said, enjoying his hot coffee without bothering to turn to his daughter when he spoke.The good girl with a thin body immediately froze where she stood, unable to move for a few seconds. What is this? Does this mean she's being forced into marriage? She was going to be set up as a match? Is that so?Charlotte wanted to turn around and immediately refute he

2. Difficult Choice
Cecilia also added, “Instead of becoming a spinster, Sister. Just accept it, after all, no one necessarily wants you, right? Who else would you be waiting for?”The two younger siblings seemed so united in their support for their parents' idea. However, Charlotte was still tongue-tied so she couldn't immediately argue.“All your friends are married, you're the only one who isn't. Aren't you ashamed that you haven't married yourself?” Barbara added with a stern tone.Charlotte wet her lips and finally said, “No, Mom. I don't like being set up.”Beatrice and Cecilia were eager to speak again but Barbara told them to be quiet first. “Uh, I don't like your refusal. They're already planning to come here,” Barbara began to sound angry.“It's just a plan, Mom. It can be canceled,” Charlotte replied.Charles, annoyed by her reply, said, “Don't embarrass me! Anyway, you just get ready. Next week you propose to Oliver.”“But, Dad. I-”“I don't want to know, you have to marry that rich widower.

3. A Decision
Concern suddenly enveloped Charlotte's heart. Obviously it was a very difficult choice. Even though Oliver was someone who liked to play with women, he still had sufficient assets. Her life would definitely be guaranteed if she chose Oliver. However, the thought of having to watch that person play with another woman made it impossible for her to endure it. Meanwhile, if she chose Shane, who was just a shoe sole maker, the economic problem was clearly at hand. “Charlotte, answer there quickly,” Barbara ordered with a stern expression. Charlotte's daydreams were shattered. She looked back at the man whose name she didn't yet know with a confused look. "Why do you want to marry me?" Beatrice, who was sitting next to her mother, immediately spoke up, "Jeez, Charlotte. If you ask, just accept it." "If you don't want to be with Oliver, it's fine if you want this one," Charles said, without mentioning the young man's name. Meanwhile, Cecilia, who was still dressed neatly, clicked he

4. Is This Serious?
"But, Mom. We're-" "Sweat it up!" Barbara interrupted, pointing at the floor while she sat on the sofa with her husband, two other daughters and two sons-in-law. Charlotte clenched her fists in annoyance. She was forced to bend down to fold the mat. But, unexpectedly, Shane held her arm, as if forbidding her to do that. Barbara raised her right eyebrow, "Huh, what are you waiting for, Charlotte?" "Shane," Charlotte called in a confused tone. Shane said, "You just go inside, I'll take care of it." Beatrice, who heard this, immediately blurted out, "Oh, so sweet!" She also clapped for Shane but then added, "Then don't forget to wash these dirty glasses too, okay?" She used his eyes to tell Shane. Charlotte said, "Shane, I-" "You just come in," Shane said. Charlotte shook her head but Shane insisted, "You just come in. Trust me, I'll take care of it." The young woman really wanted to argue, but seeing her new husband's unwilling gaze, she suddenly complied and finally went in

5. It's Safe to Eat?
Shane wasn't offended and instead smiled a little, "Yeah. There's no way I could give my wife money that wasn't the result of my work." Charlotte was stunned by the way Shane referred to her. She stammered back, “Shane, but it's ten thousand dollars. This is the same as my salary for five months, Shane." "All this is the result of fixing shoes?" Charlotte said, still looking in disbelief. "Yes, you already know that I am a shoe sole maker," Shane nodded, confirming Charlotte's words. However, Charlotte still didn't have that answer and asked again, "How long did it take you to collect this money, Shane?" Shane replied, "Okay, you don't need to think about that. The important thing is that you just use it." Charlotte still looked doubtful and unsure. But when she remembered that her mother needed additional capital money for a small shop in the market that had been closed for a week, she immediately asked her husband quietly, "Shane, if that's the case, can I give this to my mo

6. I Won't Lend It to You!
Charlotte was stunned when she heard the unfortunate words of her mother and father. "Oh my God, Dad, Mom. How can you say that? Sean already bought this for a lot of money, Mom. He bought it at-" "Expensive? What did you buy? Burger? Kentucky chicken in front of the convenience store?" Barbara interrupted with a lazy look. Before Charlotte could answer, Charles, who was smoking, said, "What's expensive? 3 dollars at most. You're giving your mom and dad obscure fringe food." "It's not fringe food. I bought this at ...." The girl didn't continue, as Shane touched her arm again. Her handsome husband shook his head as if asking Charlotte not to say anything. Shane took over, "Well, if you don't want to eat it, let me deliver it to Aunt Rosalia's house." Barbara replied nonchalantly, "Oh, good. We also can't eat food that is not clear like that." "Yes, yes. Rosalia is often short of food. Just throw it over there!" Charles added in a mocking tone. Charlotte was increasingly surpri

7. How Could?
Shane smiled mysteriously, "You will find out later, Charlotte."Charlotte stared at her husband unblinkingly, hoping he would explain something. Instead, the husband whose age she did not know said, "Well, let's get ready!""Huh?" Charlotte’s mouth opened slightly.Shane pointed to the front with his index finger, "It's up ahead, we've arrived."Charlotte immediately turned her head in the direction he was pointing and instantly. Without her realizing it, the car she was riding in had already arrived near Rosalia's street."Uh, how come it's so fast!" Charlotte said while showing a look of astonishment.Shabw chuckled softly, "Because you were busy chatting with me, you didn't realize."Charlotte pursed her lips, but she did not reply to anything. In fact, chatting with her husband did make her lose track of time.It was strange indeed. Although they had only met twice, she felt quite comfortable talking to Shane.As soon as they got off, the car left the couple. Charlotte raised h

8. Fix It!
Barbara swallowed, "Are you kidding me, Charlotte?"Charles, who had been surprised, now looked at Shane fiercely."Hyh, you. Answer me honestly! Where did you steal?" Charles hissed with a glint in his eye."I didn't steal," Shane said firmly, looking fearlessly at his father-in-law."Then do you want us to believe that a shoe solver like you can make this much money? Do you really think we're idiots?" Charles retorted, still glaring at his son-in-law.Shane said, "Anything is possible, sir. What is impossible in this world?"Barbara clucked her tongue but made no further comment. Until Charlotte, who was fed up with the attitude of her parents, said, "Just like this, Dad, Mom. If you don't believe the money is from Shane's work, just give it back to me."The woman was about to take back the money in her mother's hand, but Barbara rudely swatted Charlotte's hand away. "It's all right, you've already given me the money, do you want to take it back? Isn't it kind of you to give it?" B

9. What an Arrogant!
Charlotte gaped, shocked that her brother-in-law would dare to tell her husband like that. Meanwhile, Percy himself added, "It's a shame to have a brother-in-law who can fix shoes but not use them.""Yes, Charlotte. Instead of us having to find another shoe repairman, let's come here," Cecilia said, who stood leaning against a pillar with her arms crossed.Shane still didn't respond so Percy said again, "Take it easy, I'll pay. How much is the fare? One dollar? Two Dollars?"Percy picked up his wallet and was about to take out the money, but Cecilia stopped him quickly, "Ih, why are you paying? It's with your own family. Is it okay to charge?"Charlotte rolled her eyes lazily. She even thought that her husband might not be willing to do that. However, he casually said, "I can't do it today." "Huh?" Charlotte said in shocked disbelief, but she could not comment further.Percy sighed in annoyance. The smile from earlier had faded from his face."How come you can't? Why? Prefer to fi

10. An Accusation
Charlotte suddenly looked into the eyes of her husband who seemed to be looking at her deeply. The first eyes that looked at her so warmly and sincerely.Gosh, even her former lover never looked at her like that. Jonathan, her ex who said he loved her so much, never really looked at her. A feeling of guilt immediately came over her. The woman ventured to say, "Shane, sorry. Actually, it's not like that."She was clearly uncomfortable with the situation and Shane could feel it too.Shane sighed softly again, "I should be the one apologizing to you."Charlotte looked confused at her husband.Shane smiled instead, "Yes, it was my fault. I pushed you too hard, urged you. You ... must have needed time.""But, Shane ....""It's okay, Charlotte. I will wait patiently for you to be ready," Shane replied as he smoothed his wife's slightly messy hair.As if she had just remembered something, Charlotte finally said, "Uh, Shane. I have an invitation.""What invitation?" Shane asked in a somewha
