    Chapter 395 The Woman in His Arms


    Thanks to Joe, Charlotte finally understood what it meant to be rich but stupid.


    But after thinking about it carefully, what he said made sense, so he said, “You don’t have to do this. I


    can afford it myself.”


    Joe said helplessly, “Do you think I have too much money to spend? I can build an amusement park for


    Ben and Anna.”


    The auction outside was still in full swing, and the two of them had already begun to discuss the usage


    of the ind.


    Downstairs.


    Derek looked gloomy. He had never expected that the price of the ind, which he was determined to


    get, would be


    raised to more than 300 million, and the other party was far more confident than him.


    He rubbed his be.


    His girlfriend, Vivian Mae,forted him, “It’s just an ind of unknown background. The rumor may


    not be true. Even if


    there is a mine, who knows what it is? It’s too risky.”


    Her gentle voice slowly calmed Derek down.

    He nodded. “I understand. It’s just that the failure of this ind will affect our follow-up ns.”


    Speaking of this, Vivian bit her lower lip. “Do I have to do that?”


    Derek leaned over and gently grabbed Vivian by the hand. “You know my family… Don’t worry. I won’t


    let you do anything


    against your bottom line.”


    Vivian looked at her boyfriend and nodded.


    Derek nced at the picture of the ind on the screen, and his eyes were gloomy.


    Enter title…


    In the end, Joe bought the ind at a price of 350 million dors, and it belonged to Charlotte.


    Charlotte failed to refuse several times and had to ept it helplessly.


    Then Charlotte bought a pair of emerald cufflinks as a gift to Joe to express her gratitude.


    Joe put on the cufflinks on the spot to show that he liked them very much.


    Behind him, Jack watched expressionlessly as Joe casually threw his cufflinks worth 200,000 dors


    aside. Suddenly, he


    felt his teeth ache.


    After the auction, Charlotte and Joe did not leave in a hurry because they had to wait for the organizer


    toplete the


    transaction procedure.


    While they were waiting, someone suddenly knocked on the door of the private room.


    Jack took a look through the monitor and found that it was Derek.


    Charlotte frowned. She had an intuition that she couldn’t let Derek know that she had seen her here


    today.


    She looked around and was about to go to the bathroom to avoid him when Joe pressed down on her


    shoulder.


    “No, Mr. Clinton should have seen Sharon. Let him go.”


    Sharon nced at him coldly and walked into the bathroom.


    “Then I…” As soon as Charlotte opened her mouth, she was picked up by Joe and ced on hisp


    with her back to the


    door.


    Charlotte was shocked. “What are you doing?”


    Joe pressed down on her head. “He won’t find out.”


    She would rather Derek find out, because she and Charlie were in such a weird position.


    But at this time, Derek had already walked into the private room. Seeing Joe holding his female


    companion in an


    ambiguous manner, he said apologetically, “Sorry to disturb you.”


    Charlotte couldn’t move even if she wanted to. She could only lean on Joe’s shoulder.


    After he felt that her resistance had decreased, the corners of Joe’s mouth curled up. He even


    deliberately changed into a


    morefortable position for her. “It doesn’t matter. She’s a little tired.”


    Derek nced at the femalepanion in his arms and didn’t care.


    “My surname is Clinton. May I ask if Mr. Smith would like to consider transferring that ind? I’m willing


    to pay another 30


    million dors on the basis of your bidding,” Derek said politely.
