Chapter 49
"Charlotte, I''m begging you, be the bigger person! Please don''t call the police on me, or I''ll really
have no way of mingling in the industry anymore," pleaded Tilly.
She took advantage of the split second before Charlotte could react and clutched her hand tightly.
Charlotte snickered at Tilly. "I''ve always been one who would never attack unless attacked. Since
I''ve been harmed, I''ll definitely return the favour."
The cial look in Charlotte''s eyes made Tilly'' s hair stand on end.
For a good moment, her next words were wedged in her throat and she couldn''t get them off the tip
of her tongue.
"Ms. Page, take care of yourself." Charlotte flung off Tilly''s hand and left with Stephanie.
She was not a saint. There was no way she would simply forgive everyone who came pleading for
mercy.
Once they set foot outside, Stephanie asked nervously as her fingers fiddled with the corner of her
shirt, "Ms. Emerson, I..."
"I will report back to thepany and try my best to fight for you, but the final decision depends on
the higher-ups."
Stephanie nodded and said no more.
At Fuller''s Group.
Shane alighted the elevator and strode directly into his office.
Once he pushed open the door, he saw the DNA test reportying on his desk in wait for him.
He walked over, picked up the folder, and pulled out the report in one smooth action.
He did not hesitate in the slightest.
At once, his indifferent gazended on the conclusion on thest line.
It read, ''The alleged father is excluded as the biological father of the tested child.''
After a short pause, Shane put the folder aside, seemingly unaffected.
A brief knock sounded from outside. Subsequently, Cole came into view beside the door.
"Come in," answered Shane, his tone t.
"Mr. Fuller, all the negative news concerning NC have been taken down," Cole reported. As he
spoke, his gaze fell onto the folder that had been moved.
He secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He was in luck to have found the president away when he
arrived at the office.
"Okay," replied the dispassionate man.
However, his cold aura seemed to suck the air out of the room and Cole felt like he would suffocate
any moment.
He pressed on, "Ms. Emerson has already found the person who stole the designs. She wishes to
see you."
It was not until then only did Shane finally look up at Cole.
"Got it.”
As he retreated from the president''s office, Cole couldn''t help but feel like something was off with
Shane today. Could there have been something wrong with the report?
He could tell that Shane was pretty fond of the adorable little girl, so much that even his treatment
toward Charlotte was one of a kind.
Yet, he appeared rather downcast today...
Cole could only shrug it off. He dared not to make an assumption. Right away, heposed an
email in response to Charlotte’ s request.
''"Got it’? What does that even mean?” groaned Charlotte.
Charlotte stared at Cole''s email in confusion. On one side, Christopher let out a chuckle.
He exined, ''"Got it'' from Shane means that this matter is done and over with."

"Huh? That''s it?" Charlotte hadn’t expected it to pass so effortlessly. But what about the words he
had said to her that day...
Then, Charlotte suddenly thought of Stephanie, wondering what penalty she''d receive from the
company. "Um, what about Stephanie Nnd?"
"As for her, thepany will dismiss her without publicizing the reason. Other matters will be
passed on to be handled by thew.”
Hearing this, Charlotte nodded to herself with relief. This was probably the best result for Stephanie.
She nced at her watch. It was almost time to get off work. Charlotte turned to Christopher and
offered, "Mr. Gibson, do you have time to spare? Let’s get dinner together." After all, she wouldn''t
have been able to find the mastermind behind the scenes within the short span of a day if it wasn''t
for him.
