Chapter 403 A Chance Encounter in the Mall
When Charlotte saw Ben and Anna, the gloom in her heart was also relieved a lot.
When they came to the nearby shopping mall, Anna was so excited that she couldn’t take her eyes off the toys and
snacks inside.
“I want this! What if I want everything here?” Anna became distressed again as she spoke.
Charlotte smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter. As long as you like it, you can buy it.”
Hearing her words, Anna was even happier and said, “Then I have to choose carefully!”
Looking at Anna’s vivacious back, Charlotte touched the head of Ben next to her and said, “You can also wander
around and buy what you like.”
Ben shook his head firmly, reached out to hold Charlotte’s hand, and said, “I just want to be with Mommy.”

always here.”
Only then did Ben lower his head shyly.
While the mother and son were talking, a discordant voice sounded. “Isn’t this my nephew? Why doesn’t he know
how to greet others after returning to the country?”
Charlotte immediately frowned. She turned to look at Linda and said, “Haven’t you learned your lesson yet?”
Linda recalled the scene of Charlotte slapping her again and again. Her face suddenly darkened and she said, “Do
you still think you’re confident? Joe has been ignoring you recently, hasn’t he?”
Hearing this, Ben quickly turned to look at Charlotte and thought, “Didn’t Daddy just ask Jack to send a lot of fruit
yesterday?”
Charlotte touched his head, and Ben immediately looked away.
She looked at Linda coldly and said, “Do you think I got where I am today by relying on Joe?”
Linda had probably forgotten that the Horizon Group was established by Charlotte with the inheritance left by Judy,
and Charlotte had worked hard to grow up step by step.
“It’s just a man called Joe,” Charlotte said contemptuously.
But Linda thought that Charlotte was just trying to maintain her dignity by saying that. Linda said, “Is that so? Then
let’s see if you can still be so arrogant later.”
Charlotte smiled faintly and said, “You should care about yourself rather than worry about others. I heard that the
bank hasn’t approved too many loans for your project. Is Brian willing to support you with so much money?”
Linda’s face suddenly changed.
“I knew those banks colluded with you! Don’t worry, even without the help of banks, I can finish this project well!”
Linda said angrily, then turned around and left.

“I want you to find a way to get the codes of the intelligence system of the Holiday Resort.”
“What?” Wesley, who was on the other end of the phone, was shocked and said, “How can I get such a thing?”
Linda sneered, “That’s what you have to think about.”
After that, she hung up the phone.
Charlotte didn’t take what happened today to heart. She happily bought a lot of things with Ben and Anna. Then
they had dinner in the mall before going home.
Ben had been carefully observing Charlotte’s expression. Seeing that her mood was not affected, he knew that
Linda was not telling the truth, and then he was relieved.
The next day, Charlotte set off to investigate the progress of the Holiday Resort. She didn’t expect to meet Trevor
as soon as she went out.
“What’s the matter?” Charlotte raised her eyebrows and looked at Trevor. It had only been a few months, but
Trevor had already gotten rid of the original depression, and there was a hint of maturity in his words and deeds.
