Chapter 96 Interrogation
“Miss Clinton.” The chief financial officer sounded anxious and flattering. “I think you’re right. I’ll go back and improve it. I must let you see the results within a month!”
There was a pleading look in his eyes, and Charlotte did not intend to drive him to a dead end, so she nodded.
The chief financial officer heaved a long sigh of relief, turned around, and left the office. He did not let anyone see the folder.
“I have a lot of similar documents. Do you want to have a look?” Charlotte glanced at the crowd. Everyone looked away and quickly said, “No, no! We will go and rectify it now.””
Even if they didn’t see the contents of the folder, just by looking at the expression of the financial director, they knew that things were not so simple.
After they left the office, Charlotte leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes.
Despite her constant caution, many people in the Horizon Group had been infiltrated. It would take a lot of effort to catch these people one by one.
At this moment, the office door was suddenly opened.

Charlotte thought it was someone back, so she asked casually, “Is there anything else?”
It wasn’t until Frank caught up with Joe that he said, “Miss Clinton is in a meeting, Mr. Smith. Please…”
Charlotte abruptly opened her eyes and saw Joe standing at the door, staring at her with a deep gaze.
Seeing his performance, Charlotte knew that Sir Smith must
have told him what she and David had said.
“Mr. Smith. What can I do for you?” Charlotte looked at him with a frown.
Joe glanced at Frank indifferently and said, “Get out.”
Frank was stunned, but he did not move. Instead, he looked at Charlotte.
Joe raised his eyebrows. Charlotte hesitated for a moment before nodding. “You can wait outside.”
Frank turned to leave, and Joe turned around and locked the door.
Charlotte suddenly became alert. “What are you doing?”

Joe didn’t answer. He just walked to her desk step by step. His slender fingers swept across the desk, suddenly pulling over Charlotte’s chair, bringing the distance between the two closer.

“Are those two children David’s?” His voice was deep and a little hoarse, which made Charlotte scared.
She looked away and tried hard not to meet his gaze. “So what? We’re divorced. I’ve never been sorry to you before.”
Joe reached out and grabbed her chin, forcing her to look into his eyes.
“You fell in love at first sight with David, and you gave birth to children for him, did you?” Joe asked word by word.
Charlotte knew that if she behaved oddly, Joe would definitely be suspicious. She secretly clenched her fists with her nails and forced herself to look at Joe. “Yes. Otherwise, why do you think I became David’s fiancée? We originally wanted to let the children return to their family after we got married, but you found it out.”
“I don’t believe it.” At some point, Joe had crossed the desk and placed his hands on both sides of Charlotte’s chair. He looked down at Charlotte and said, “You’re a person with nostalgia.
