With the way her mother had been acting recently, she wanted to say, "Then sever it."
But Charlotte didn't say that.
She would never forget who had come to help her when everyone had laughed at her for giving birth to eight children.
It was her mother.
She would remember that kindness for a lifetime.
Charlotte could only say helplessly, "Okay, I'll get one for her, all right?"
...
Charlotte remembered that Vince Palmer's assistant had put the signed CD on the table in the reception room.
Charlotte was going back to get it.
When she arrived in the reception room, she saw that the signed CD was still there.
As soon as Charlotte picked it up, the door flew open, and a person walked in.
Two pairs of eyes turned toward each other.
Linda was suddenly excited.
She pointed to Charlotte. "Look, Mr. Palmer!" she said. "This woman ran back to get the signed CD! I knew she liked you! She is your fan!"
