    Chapter 592 Sandra’s n


    She propped her face with one hand, her fingernails gently tracing over the back of Joe’s hand, her


    eyes revealing a hint


    of seduction. “There are some secrets of the Faulkner Family that I cannot mention here. Shall we go


    upstairs for a more


    detailed discussion?”


    Joe nodded slightly, and the two of them walked out of the banquet hall, one in front of the other.


    Inside the elevator, Sandra’s vision gradually became blurred. She felt drowsy and flushed, her voice


    turning sweet and


    sticky.


    Yes, everything tonight was well within Sandra’s n.


    She had bribed a waiter in advance, faking a sealed bottle of red wine. In reality, she hadced the


    wine with arge


    amount of illicit drugs that would cloud the mind and obliterate reason.


    To make Joe believe the wine was safe, she had even drunk an entire ss of it herself without


    hesitation.


    Sandra looked at Joe with a hazy smile. This man would finally belong to her.


    Her overwhelming desire left her without reason, and she only knew that she was pulled into a room


    where they became


    entangled in a frenzy…


    Outside the room, Joe listened to the unbearable sounds emanating from within. He spoke to his


    bodyguards in a stern


    tone, “Keep an eye on this room. Don’t let her leave.”


    If he hadn’t received word that Sandra was nning something, he wouldn’t have agreed toe here


    and waste time.


    Back at the vi, as soon as Joe entered, he saw Mrs. River in the kitchen, preparing congee.


    Mrs. River greeted him with a gentle smile. “The fever has subsided. Perhaps it was due to excessive


    exertion. She’s


    beenining of hunger.”


    Enter title…


    Joe nced at the bowl of congee on the table and said softly, “I’ll take it up.”


    Mrs. River naturally didn’t refuse and ced the congee bowl on a tray.


    Joe carried the congee bowl upstairs and happened to see Charlotte sitting on the couch, blow-drying


    her hair.


    “Why are you back so soon?” Charlotte was surprised to see Joe enter. It seemed too early.


    Joe ced the congee on the small table next to Charlotte. “I finished what needed to be done and


    came back. There was


    nothing worthwhile to say to those people.”


    After saying this, he reached out to check Charlotte’s forehead temperature, ensuring she had cooled


    down, before finally


    sighing in relief.


    “What happened to you today?” Charlotte looked at Joe tentatively. Although he had been calm in front


    of her, she could


    still sense that he didn’t seem very happy.


    Joe was stunned. “How did you know…”


    Charlotte suddenly smiled. “First, let me rify that I’m not ming you for anything. When we first got


    married, you were


    quite indifferent to me, so I started trying to observe your every move. For example, I noticed that when


    you’re unhappy,


    you unbutton the second button of your cor, and when you’re happy, your hand unconsciously taps


    on the table…”


    Before she could finish her sentence, Joe had already pulled her into his arms.


    Charlotte blinked and then smiled. “Back then, I actually found it quite interesting, not as miserable asContent ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    you might think.”


    Joe pressed his lips together in silence.


    Some might think he treated Charlotte very well, but only he knew it wasn’t that simple.


    Caring for her and giving her gifts—was that enough? There were plenty of people in the world who


    could do those things.


    If she wanted, he could easily present her with all the rare and exotic treasures she liked, but that


    would only be material


    satisfaction.


    Both he and Charlotte knew very well that the most precious and hardest-to-obtain thing in this world


    was a sincere heart.
