    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 calcted so carefully, Charlotte could escape smoothly.


    Looking at Joe’s back, Linda suddenly had a n.


    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.”


    Joe frowned tightly.


    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 exined 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 ept it is your business.” Joe


    saw Charlotte’s determination, but he simply yed 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 ept it ecstatically?”


    There was even a bit of impatience in her tone, she would not be grateful for everything Joe did.


    “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 mming 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 Hiry’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 ss of


    champagne.
