Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 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

Since Faye and her friends were just staring and not answering her, Charlotte impatiently said, "Come on, anyone can come with me to the bathroom to see if I'm really menstruating or just lying."Challenged like that, one of the employees finally responded, "How disgusting! Why would you go to such lengths?"“That’s right. I think this is just a trick by Charlotte. She knows that everyone will be disgusted, so she confidently says that. No one wants to follow her to the toilet," another friend said.Charlotte sighed, getting tired of responding to those people who did not like her.However, she still did not want to be accused of something she did not do. She was even pure until that moment and she would defend herself until she was found innocent. "Oh, there's another way," Faye said suddenly.Abby immediately asked, "What way, ma'am?"Faye grinned, "A pregnancy test."Charlotte snorted, while almost all of her friends looked happy about Faye's idea."That's good. You'll get caught

"Where do you think?" Charlotte asked back.The employee who was one year younger than Charlotte stammered back, "Wh-what do you mean? Why are you asking me?"Faye was indeed surprised, but she tried to remain brave and then moved to defend her friend. "Report to the boss? How could the boss believe you?" Faye asked with a half-mocking smile.Charlotte nodded, as if she understood Faye's meaning, "The boss won't defend me, that's why I won't report to the boss.""Where then?" Faye said with her chin up."The police. There's a police station not too far from here," Charlotte said.Faye widened her eyes, while her other friend was already getting pale. "You're joking, right?""No, I'm not. You guys accusing me like that wasn't a joke either, right?" Charlotte replied who was now tired of constantly giving in.Suddenly everyone fell silent, beginning to fear that Charlotte would actually do what she said.Not wanting to deal with the police, one of them spoke up, "Never mind, guys. I be

Charlotte again could only sigh softly. She also tried to restrain herself desperately and then put away all the wild questions that popped up in her head.She could not find the right words about her husband. What was clear was that he was too mysterious.Shane was strange from the start. He proposed to her without much preparation, married her suddenly and even on their wedding day, none of his family members came.For that matter, she really wanted to ask her husband. However, she was afraid that her curiosity would offend him.But, it's been almost a week and her husband didn't seem to want to reveal the things that she still didn't know.Besides, it was the issue of money that always made Charlotte wonder. Her husband was obviously a cobbler. She had seen it herself. She had witnessed him repairing his customers' shoes.However, he seemed to have so much money that Charlotte couldn't stop thinking about the amount of money he had. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Shane ask

"Charlotte," her husband called her in a fairly soft tone.Charlotte stammered, "Y-yes, Shane.""So, how is it? Which one do you like?" Charlotte asked while pointing at a beautiful necklace with a heart-shaped pendant.Not wanting to keep her husband waiting, Charlotte finally said, "You choose. I'll love anything."Hearing that, Rayan smiled. "Yes, you sit down first, I will choose it or you.""Yes, Shane."Next, Charlotte saw her husband choosing several kinds of jewelry which when the cashier mentioned the total price, Charlotte could only gape. But, to Charlotte's surprise, Shane used cash to pay. "Alright, now let's get some clothes for us and some other stuff," Shane said.Charlotte swallowed with difficulty but she still obediently followed Shane.She was curious about her husband's money which she thought was too much, but she would not confront Shane at the moment.They spent almost two hours buying the items. It seemed impossible for him to earn money through unlawful me

Charlotte winced when she heard her husband's words, as if Shane could read what she was thinking. She hesitantly said, "If I'm honest, I'm actually a bit surprised. You work as a shoe repairman but ... you have so much money."Charlotte moistened her lips, getting nervous. Especially since Shane was now staring at her unblinkingly, she became even more nervous. But, she didn't want to offend her husband so she added, "I’m so sorry, Shane. It's not that I'm insulting your work. It's not like that at all. But, how come you can earn so much money from repairing shoes?""You don't have any other jobs?" Charlotte added in a tone that sounded very cautious.Shane responded with a warm smile, "My job is just like what you see, Charlotte.""You already know that I fix shoes. You've even seen me work in person, right?" Charlotte nodded, confirming her husband's words.That was not in doubt at all. Her husband even looked very skilled at what he did and the work was very good.In Shane's ha

"You will find out later. Now, you get ready first!" Shane said who again sounded mysterious to Charlotte's ears.Shane shook his head"Don't forget to double check, don't miss anything!" Shane added.Charlotte wanted to ask again, but she tried to restrain herself and immediately organized her and her husband's equipment.Shane himself was seen taking his cell phone and typing something on it. Charlotte did not ask and just rechecked their belongings.After making sure everything was ready, Charlotte said, "Shane, I’m ready."Shane nodded and smiled at his wife, "Come on, let's go straight to the terrace.""Did we take an online taxi from the front of the house, Shane?" Charlotte asked with a surprised look."Yes, so you don't have to walk much," Shane replied who, before Charlotte could ask again, had already been grabbed by her husband to walk out of the room.When they arrived at the front porch of the house, their two parents who were seen lounging in front stared at them in surp

The driver turned around and replied after smiling, “That’s right, ma'am."Charlotte swallowed, for the first time somewhat surprised at being called "ma'am". She immediately turned to her husband who was staring at her with a furrowed brow. "Why, Charlotte?""I look old, don't I, Shane?" Charlotte asked in a whispered tone of voice.That made Shane even more surprised. He replied in an astonished tone, "So why did you say that?""Didn't you hear me, Shane? The driver called me 'ma'am'," Charlotte explained.The laughter was unavoidable. Shane even touched his wife's hair out of excitement. "How come you're laughing, Shane?" Charlotte said, again frowning.Shane shook his head and immediately touched his wife's hand and clasped it, "Thank you, Charlotte. Thank you.""Thank you for what?" It was now Charlotte who looked at her husband with her eyebrows raised in confusion.Shane gently rubbed the back of his wife's hand and said, "For accepting my proposal. I ... feel like a lucky m

The girl did not stop there. She immediately stepped closer to Shane who was about to get into his car.Shane immediately stepped back. Unfortunately, Queen was one step ahead of the handsome man and she quickly blocked the door with her hand.Shane sighed in exasperation, not understanding the young girl's way of thinking. "Answer, Shane! Why are you still hiding your wife's identity?" Queen urged Shane who was now standing a few steps away from her with Ferry who was starting to look anxious."Why would I answer that?" Shane retorted through gritted teeth as he almost lost his self-control.Queen sneered, "Oh, come on. Don't go around in circles! All you have to do is answer why you didn't introduce her publicly.""In fact, Aric said he didn't know anything about the girl you married. Isn't that very strange?" Queen added with a furrowed brow.When that name was mentioned, of course Shane could no longer tolerate Queen's attitude which was still bothering him.So, with great restr

"No," Shane said, who had taken one step forward.Agatha's lips trembled as she replied, "You didn't lie, Sir?"Shane sighed, "Have I ever lied?"Indeed not. Everyone knew that their boss always told the truth and never broke his word if he had promised something.Before leaving, Shane said, "And as for Agatha's replacement, we'll discuss it in three days. In the meantime, all of Agatha's duties will be handled by Ferry."Ferry, who seemed to have guessed that her boss would speak like that and pointed at her, only replied with a nod.After finishing his business at the French restaurant, Shane immediately went to Brokefield. The young man attended a meeting for almost two hours there. He did not feel bored at all, as if he was used to his routine as a young businessman.Indeed, he was the heir apparent of Lee Shoes, but he also had his own business to take care of. So, he also tried to divide his time so that all his affairs could run smoothly.Ferry, his personal assistant, played

Agatha of course could not possibly argue. Especially with the cold and flat tone of voice that Shane had used earlier.She was forced to say, "Fair, sir.""I ... thank you for giving me a chance to make things right. I promise I will never repeat my actions again. Nor will I ever-""Wait a minute!" Shane said suddenly, making Agatha stop talking.Shane frowned, "I haven't reinstated your position yet. Your friends haven't even voted yet. So, you ... don't need to thank me."Agatha nodded in understanding.Then the girl moved her head and instantly she seemed to have a lot of confidence again. She did not even hesitate to stare at the employees one by one and put on her best smile. She also threw a look at them as if to say, "Choose me. I'm counting on you."Once she was sure that they would vote for her again, Agatha said to Shane, "I am ready, Sir. When will they be asked to vote?"Shane looked astonished at the girl's overconfident demeanor. But he couldn't comment on it and coul
Not an Ordinary Shoe Sole Maker 50. What Are the Conditions?
Agatha's beautiful gray contact lens-covered eyes widened perfectly at once, "You mean ... what? I don't understand, Sir."Shane sighed again, looking very tired.Ferry and some of the staff who knew Shane's character quite well realized that the super-handsome man was currently holding a great deal of resentment towards his employee.Shane was about to fire Agatha but he was the head of the European-style restaurant so he couldn't just dismiss people for flimsy reasons.Nor can he just walk away or ignore small problems that occur.Besides, Le Restaurant Jules Verne De S was the first restaurant he had built without his father's involvement so he would never willingly let the place have a bad image."Ferry," Shane called out.Ferry hurriedly handed Agatha a laptop.The girl quickly wiped away the tears that had fallen and looked confused at Shane."Just look at it!" Shane ordered again.Shane mo

"What is it, Mr. Shane?" Miko asked in astonishment.Shane immediately asked while pointing at Bagas who seemed to be talking to two men, "He ... is he an employee of this company?"Of course for that matter Miko had absolutely no idea and he turned to the young man standing beside him, asking for help.So the one who answered was Ferry who was always in the company as Shane's assistant who would do any work according to his orders, "He should be, Sir. He's wearing the company's employee identification card here."Shane immediately looked at the dark blue object hanging around Percy's neck and understood.Ferry added, "The blue color indicates that he is an employee or staff, the green color indicates that he is an employee in the production department, while red is for visitors or guests."Shane nodded and replied with a bit of offense, "I know the explanation of the colors, I just didn't pay much attention to the sign."Ferry

"Of course, Mr. Lee," Ferry replied obediently.In just a few seconds Ferry had prepared a file of the employee data referred to by Shane on a special tablet that Shane used for work.Shane immediately read the list without wasting time.However, just after he had read a few pages, Ferry said, "Sir, the meeting is about to start."Shane reluctantly handed the tablet back to his personal assistant and said, "I'll read it again later.""Yes, Sir. I will tell Mr. Damian later," Ferry replied.Shane got up from his chair and walked to the meeting room that was located only a few meters away from his room.The staff and employees who were not participating in the meeting looked up when they saw the handsome man who was the heir to Lee Shoes walking with his young assistant.A young girl staring at him without blinking said, "Why does he have to get married anyway? Being handsome and already owned by someone doesn't seem like s

Miko could only shrug, "I can't confirm that either, Sir."It wasn't that he didn't want to say that, but he himself felt that there wasn't much."So what? You are the one who meets Mr. Lee the most. Don't you know, Sir?" Damian asked again.Miko shook his head. He looked around the office on that floor, as if to make sure that no one would hear what he was saying.It would be very dangerous if anyone was listening to their conversation. Moreover, it was the leader's personal matter which was of course very confidential.Damian himself was quite hopeful that Miko would provide useful information for him since he didn't know too much about the company's leader.Miko said quietly, "I actually don't meet Mr. Lee often. Only a few times, when he was with his wife."Hearing that explanation, Damian couldn't resist asking, “Uh, Sir. What is Mr. Lee's wife like? Pretty?"Miko smiled, "Beautiful for sure, but ... Mr. Lee's

Charlotte was of course annoyed, but she knew that whatever she said now would not change anything so she simply said, "I take my leave for work first, Dad, Mom. And ... congratulations, Gas for the promotion. Cecilia, I go first. It's getting late."Cecilia nodded with a happy smile, as if she'd managed to get one step ahead of her sister, while Barbara and Charles didn't respond to their daughter's words, ignoring her as if she wasn't there.Percy said, "When it's official, I'll invite you and Shane for the celebration."Charlotte responded with a small nod and quickly left the house after saying her greetings.She was not jealous. Not at all. She just did not want to hear any more insults or ridicule from her own family about her or her husband.Because, if she heard any more, she would definitely not be able to bear it anymore and would probably come out with a defense that might make her family upset with her.Me

However, Agatha could do nothing else. She knew that she could only wait for tomorrow in silence.Meanwhile, Charlotte and Shane were still on their way to their house. If they had previously walked to the French restaurant, now they were back in a car whose driver Charlotte had memorized.Charlotte observed her husband who had just turned off his cell phone and did not hesitate to ask, "Why, Shane? How come his face is so serious."Shane winked and reflexively touched his own face, "Is it?""Yes. From the moment we got out of the restaurant, you were silent, then you looked really serious while holding your cell phone," Charlotte explained.Shane suddenly changed his facial expression and smiled at his wife, "Oh, you were still a bit upset earlier. Then this is serious when you're contacting people for work.""Oh, I see," Charlotte replied while nodding, not suspicious at all.Shane then said, "Charlotte, about the money for father, shall we give it tomorrow? I don't mean to procrast
