31. Where Is the Money?

"Come in first, how can you talk outside?" Cecilia said curtly.The woman invited Beatrice to come inside.Charlotte sighed, starting to get a bad feeling.Meanwhile, Shane, who was standing right beside his wife, whispered, "Calm down!"Charlotte shook her head, "How can I calm down, Shane? Did you hear what Cecilia and Beatrice said earlier? Share the money, Shane. Who would want to share money?""Uh, I remember you said that you didn't give it to your father today. Didn't you, Shane? Why are you collecting now?" Charlotte said impatiently.Shane nodded instead, patiently saying softly. "Let's just go in first, shall we? Later we can find out what the truth is."Charlotte reluctantly stepped inside with her husband. Once inside, she could see that in the not-so-large living room, her father and mother were already sitting together with her two younger siblings.Charlotte chose to sit on the right side with Shane beside her. Just as they sat down, Barbara asked, "So when did you give

32. Why, Charlotte?

"Come in first, how can you talk outside?" Cecilia said curtly.The woman invited Beatrice to come inside.Charlotte sighed, starting to get a bad feeling.Meanwhile, Shane, who was standing right beside his wife, whispered, "Calm down!"Charlotte shook her head, "How can I calm down, Shane?

33. At the Market!

"Honey, take it easy. Inshallah there is a way," Shane said so casually.Charlotte wanted to ask further questions, but her husband said again, "Come on, take a shower first!""But, about that-""You don't need to think about it, I'll take care of it," Shane cut in while winking his left eye at Charlotte.Charlotte sighed and chose not to ask again. By not asking she thought that it would not make Shane feel uncomfortable. Because, if she questioned him more, she was worried he would think she did not believe in his ability.According to her, a man does not like to be underestimated and would love to be given trust. So, Charlotte chose to really put her trust in her husband.In the early morning after the dawn prayer, Charlotte asked, "Shane, may I go to the market?"Shane, who had just folded his sarong after returning from the mosque, asked back, "Do you want to do a lot of shopping?""Yes, I'm running out of groceries," the woman replied as she picked up her purse."Do you still

34. Don't Talk Too Much!

"Find out why they lied, then take the next step," Shane replied.Charlotte gave up, her husband was too kind. Even though the money used by her mother and father was Shane's money, the man seemed to have no problem with the money used for unclear purposes."Tell you what, let's leave this matter alone. We-" Shane couldn't continue because he was suddenly pushed forward and almost fell down."Shane, is it okay?" Charlotte asked while holding her husband's obviously heavy body.Shane nodded and straightened up. Before he could turn around, he heard someone call out, "Move aside! If you want to talk, don't do it in the middle of the road."His voice sounded harsh, causing Charlotte to take offense. The woman turned her head to see a stocky man with a towering height.She fearlessly said, "Yes, but you can say it nicely, right? Not that kind of pushy?"The man laughed sarcastically, "Wow! It turns out that you are brave little Charlotte."Hearing her name mentioned by the man, Charlot

35. What Kind of Help?

Oliver laughed dismissively, "You can't make this up, Charlotte! How could your husband, who is just a shoe repairman, give you that much money?"Charlotte replied quickly. "Well, then if you don't believe me, you can ask my father or my younger siblings. After all, it was my younger sister who got the money from my husband."Oliver laughed out loud at Charlotte's words. He also shook his head, indicating that he really thought Charlotte's explanation was just a joke.She also saw Oliver glance at Shane with a mocking glance that was so obvious that Charlotte was annoyed, "Why are you laughing? Is there anything funny about my words?"Meanwhile, Shane only looked at the man who was much older than him with a flat stare."There is, yes you are the funny one, Charlotte," Oliver said after he stopped laughing."What do you mean?" Shane said while trying desperately to contain his irritation. Because, by now it was getting afternoon, the sunlight had started to appear slowly. More people

36. You're So Pretentious

Charlotte widened her eyes in shock. "Dad, that's not what I meant.""It's not like that, you're obviously bringing it up," Charles snapped back.Shane immediately grabbed his wife's arm, Charlotte looked back at her husband and then she heard him say, "Enough, darling!"The woman couldn't do anything else. There was no way she could argue with her husband who had clearly signaled her to shut up and not reply. Barbara looked at the submissive Charlotte and clucked her tongue, looking rather annoyed."Sorry, Dad, Mom. Charlotte has spoken impolitely.""Hm, it's good that you realize," Charles said.Barbara chimed in, "You weren't like this before, Charlotte. You used to be more silent, but now you keep arguing. Are you the Shane who taught Charlotte to be brave with her own parents?"Charlotte really did not expect her father to speak like that. She thought that even though her father was upset, he would not go as far as blaming Rayan continuously, but in fact now her husband was bein

37. What Are Your Rights?

Charlotte was indeed annoyed at her coworker who was always pestering her, but she was currently in a situation where she had to remain professional. Hence, the not-so-light-skinned woman only replied in a low tone, "Faye, do you want to help me or not?"Charlotte did not wait for Faye's reply and immediately went back to greeting the customer who had begun to put down her groceries.Faye could only smile wryly while helping Charlotte to pack the customer's goods without being able to bother Charlotte anymore.She was forced to hold her tongue until the end of their working hours. "Wow! Charlotte, who was that handsome guy?" One of Charlotte’s coworkers asked when Charlotte took her small backpack from the locker.Charlotte closed her eyes for a moment to make herself much calmer while facing those people who might intend to hurt her heart.It was Faye who replied, "Charlotte's ex-boyfriend. Isn't he cool? I don't think he's just a random person."Abby, who happened to have just ent

38. Your Faults

Charlotte shook her head and muttered again, "Uh, there's no way Shane would be angry. He would never think negatively of me.""Yes, that's right." Charlotte added, reassuring herself.But, unfortunately, she remained restless as she waited for her husband to come pick her up there. However, she was greatly relieved when some of her coworkers seemed indifferent when they found out she was still there, not yet out of the minimarket.About two minutes later, her cell phone vibrated. Charlotte quickly picked up the call."I'm already in front of your bake shop, Charlotte. You can come out now," Shane said in the call.Charlotte replied with relief, "Yes, Shane."As soon as she hung up the call, she walked outside and she was immediately greeted with a warm smile by Shane who was standing at the edge near the highway.Shane was standing not far from Jonathan who was looking at Charlotte with astonishment.He had thought she was walking towards him, but instead she continued to walk past

39. Why Apologize?

"Enough, Jonathan!" Charlotte shouted who couldn't take it anymore."Why is that? You ... probably feel the most hurt because of that incident. Like that, Charlotte?" Jonathan replied sarcastically.The man looked happy to see Charlotte's current reaction, but Charlotte could not hold back her irritation so she said, "I don't care what you think of me. I just want to say, you don't need to show up in front of me anymore."Shane immediately grabbed his wife's shoulder gently, "Honey."Jonathan snorted in exasperation. He was about to reply again, but Shane was much faster than her, "I'm warning you. If you still dare to speak again or still try to disturb my wife, then I will not remain silent."Jonathan laughed dismissively. "What kind of a hobo can you be?""Don't you see who your opponent is?" Jonathan added while still looking at Rayan with a condescending gaze.Shane simply replied, "I am a husband who is disturbed by your behavior."After saying that, Shane actually took Charlott

40. Remember What?

Shane smiled even wider, showing his white and neat teeth, "Yes, it's even good, admiring your husband is even encouraged."After saying that, Shane stroked Charlotte's hair affectionately. Of course that little action instantly made the sweet lady's cheeks blush. "Shane, it's not nice to be seen by people," Charlotte said, still blushing.Shane chuckled at his wife's response and said, "You're even more beautiful when you're so shy."Charlotte gritted her teeth, "Stop it please!”The woman immediately turned her gaze back to her husband again. “Let’s have dinner! I know this area.”Charlotte swallowed, feeling uncomfortable but still asking curiously, "When you go around?"Shane smiled as he heard his wife's words and said softly, "My struggle is not unbearable but yes ... thank God, right? Now the results are visible."Charlotte looked at her husband with a twinkling gaze full of adm
