Chapter 279 Make up
Joe led Charlotte out of the banquet venue in an upright
manner.
In a corner not far away, Linda saw the backs of the two leaving, she gritted her teeth tightly. Why was
Charlotte always so lucky? Even if she calculated so carefully, Charlotte could escape smoothly.
Looking at Joe’s back, Linda suddenly had a plan.
Following Joe to the parking lot, Charlotte unceremoniously shook off his hand, “No one is watching
now, Mr. Smith, you don’t have to pretend anymore.”
Feeling the warm heat in his palm disappear, Joe lowered his eyes slightly.
“Tonight’s matter…” Before he finished speaking, Charlotte interrupted him, “I will investigate tonight’s
matter by myself, so I won’t bother you.”

He looked at Charlotte and saw the alienation in her eyes, she was trying her best to avoid getting
involved with him.
This kind of recognition made him feel a nameless anger.
Not for Charlotte, but for himself.
“I just want to help you.” Joe explained dryly, Charlotte actually sensed a trace of grievance in his tone.
She smiled, “It’s not necessary. A qualified ex should be as silent as if buried in the soil. We don’t need
to help each other.”
Joe suddenly took a step forward strongly. The height of nearly 6.2 feet gave Charlotte an
indescribable sense of oppression, “You should understand what I mean. I was wrong in everything
before, I’m sorry. I want to make up for you.”
Charlotte raised her head and looked at Joe seriously for the
first time.
“If it was five years ago, I might have been ecstatic because of your words. But now I don’t need it
anymore, you don’t need to make up for anything either.” Charlotte said looking into Joe’s deep eyes.
No matter how much Joe made amends, he couldn’t make up for Charlotte five years ago, and the so–
called make–up was meaningless.
“It’s my business if I want to make up for you, and whether you want to accept it is your business.” Joe
saw Charlotte’s determination, but he simply played a rogue, “You can reject me directly, even more
than I did to you back then. I just deserve it.”
Charlotte never thought that Joe would say such words to her,
and she was a little annoyed, “Do you think this is interesting? The dignified Mr. Smith bowed down to
me and submitted to my will, should I thank you? Or should I accept it ecstatically?”
There was even a bit of impatience in her tone, she would not be grateful for everything Joe did.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It doesn’t matter,” Joe said firmly. “Even if you smash all my good intentions to the ground, I deserve
it.”
The conversation between the two ended with Charlotte angrily slamming the car door and driving
away.
Charlotte never knew that Joe, who had always been superior, would look like this once he became
rascally.
When returning to the Clinton Family, Charlotte was surprised to see that Linda had also returned to
the Clinton mansion, and seemed to be talking to Old Mr. Clinton.
“Charlotte!” Linda smiled ambiguously, “I heard that you were taken away from Zoe Hillary’s birthday
banquet by a handsome man, wasn’t it? Could it be that you are secretly dating behind our backs?”
As soon as her words came out, Old Mr. Clinton’s probing gaze immediately fell on Charlotte’s face.
With a slight movement in Charlotte’s heart, she suddenly guessed who handed on that glass of
champagne.
