Chapter 358 Save Him First
Since then, he had lost interest in marriage. He just regarded it as a must in life. It was no different from
going to school or working.
But later, he accidentally had sex with Charlotte, and Sir Smith forced them to get married, which made
Joe very disgusted.
He attributed all the mistakes to Charlotte, but he was indifferent no matter how hard she tried to
please him. At that time, he happened to meet Wendy, who claimed to be the little girl, so he let her be.
“It wasn’t until you left that I realized that you had unknowingly invaded my life a long time ago. You
made me get used to your existence, and I even… fell in love with you.” Joe sneered, laughing at his

After Charlotte left, he deliberately ignored those emotions and treated Wendy better on purpose. He
even let others acquiesce to the identity of Wendy.
He seemed to be angry with Charlotte without saying goodbye, as well as with his own emotions.
But he knew very well that he had no feelings for Wendy.
It was not until Charlotte came back that he realized that what he had done was meaningless.
“I’ve paid the price for my arrogance. You no longer love me, and you’ve also shut me out.” Joe’s eyes
were misty, but he looked firmly at Charlotte. “I deserve it, but I won’t give up on you.”
Because he had lost her, he knew that he had to cherish her.
The prodigal son turned out to be worthless, but a person who had lost his glory would only want to
hold on tightly to his glory, even if he had to give up everything.
After listening to Joe’s confession, Charlotte fell silent.
She didn’t know how to respond to him, so she simply didn’t say anything.
Fortunately, Joe didn’t intend for her to give him any response. Instead, he continued, “I’m not saying
this to get any response from you. It’s just that I can’t change the past that I’ve done wrong, but I’ll try
my best to change myself and learn how to love someone.”
Charlotte took a deep breath. “But I…”
Right at that moment, a series of noises sounded from behind them. The two of them stopped talking
and looked over.
The rocks that had just been blocked began to loosen. Rays of light seeped in bit by bit and soon

Charlotte was a little alert at first, but not long after, she saw Sharon appear outside the cave. She
finally breathed a long sigh of relief. “Why are you here?”
“I didn’t expect you to be kidnapped with your bodyguards. I’m just worried that no one will pay me
wages in the future,” Sharon glanced at Joe and said sarcastically.
Charlotte touched her nose and said, “It’s no use talking to your boss like this.”
Sharon sneered and said, “The boss has to come out alive.”
The tense atmosphere at the scene suddenly became much more relaxed because of their jokes.
Soon, the entrance of the cave was expanded. The rescue workers carefully climbed in and were about
to take Charlotte away, but she stopped them.
Charlotte pointed to Joe behind her. “His back is injured. Save him first.”
The rescue workers hurried forward. When they saw the injury on Joe’s back, they were slightly
stunned. They carefully put him on a stretcher and carried him out.
