At noon, precisely, Joe appeared at the entrance of Charlotte's office.
Charlotte was quite surprised. "Did Sandra let you go?"
Seeing the playfulness in her eyes, Joe stepped forward and kissed her lips. "Are you happy to see me being bothered by someone?"
Charlotte shook her head with a smile. "How could I dare? I'm just naturally curious."
After all, Sandra's intentions were clear from the beginning; she was here for Charlotte. And just now, Sandra's interest in Joe didn't seem feigned in the office. There might be more opportunities for them to meet in the future.
Joe sneered. "The people from the Faulkner Family sure are troublesome."
Sandra appeared before Charlotte without any reservations. It was impossible for the Faulkner Family not to be aware. This meant that more members of the Faulkner Family secretly supported her from behind.
The two exchanged a knowing glance and could only resort to evasive tactics when faced with adversity.
In just a few days, it would be the 30th-anniversary celebration of the Chamber of Commerce. The current chairman personally delivered the invitation to Charlotte and Joe's office. Naturally, they couldn't refuse.
Before setting off, Joe saw that Charlotte was wearing a deep blue velvet backless gown. He had deliberately chosen a matching velvet suit of the same color to pair up with her.
Charlotte looked at Joe helplessly. "Your intentions are a bit too obvious, aren't they?"
Joe glanced suggestively at her back, exposing a large, smooth skin expanse. He smirked. "There are always some people who are blind."
Even though they had attended numerous events together, there were still those who chose to selectively overlook it and continued giving hints to Charlotte.
Not long ago, even a recently graduated male student had been seen by Joe trying to flirt with Charlotte, attempting to get her contact information.
"That's just an exception," Charlotte said helplessly.
Speaking of which, that male student had a stroke of bad luck. He happened to run into Joe at the wrong time and was so frightened by the encounter that his face turned pale.
