Chapter 862 Charlotte Got Drunk


    Joe nced at Trevor and said, “This year, our coboration with Pope Group can reduce costs by


    30%.”


    As soon as Trevor heard this, he became anxious and gave Joe an annoyed re. He said, “Why are


    you still settling personal scores? I know you’re the esteemed party A. I’ll keep my mouth shut.”


    Joe remained nomittal and, with Charlotte on his back, headed towards the vi’s backyard.


    On the side, Lena saw Trevor’s reaction and couldn’t help butugh. “You’re quite daring, but you back


    down quickly, too.”


    Trevor shrugged nonchntly, downing the remaining contents of his ss.


    “I truly envy him. If only I…”


    Trevor gradually restrained his smile, took his empty ss, and turned to leave.


    Lena and Gideon exchanged a nce. Even though Trevor hadn’t said anything explicitly, they still


    understood the implied message.


    Joe carried Charlotte steadily into the room. When he saw what Charlotte was wearing, he immediately


    called Mandy to the adjacent room.


    However, he didn’t notice that shortly after he left the room, two figures quietly sneaked in. They stood


    at the head of Charlotte’s bed and exchanged a few words with her.


    When Joe returned, he found Charlotte still peacefully asleep on the bed.


    “Charlotte, would you like me to take you for a bath? You don’t seemfortable like this,” Joe tried to


    wake her up, intending to have her take a quick shower.


    However, Charlotte showed no signs of waking up. After a moment of contemtion, Joe began


    unbuttoning her clothes.


    But to his surprise, just as he unbuttoned thest button, Charlotte suddenly opened her eyes, staring


    intently at Joe.


    Joe was taken aback.


    Without Charlotte having to scream, Joe knew that his current actions seemed too ambiguous.

    He cleared his throat and said, “You might not believe it, but I just thought of changing your clothes to


    make you morefortable…”


    Joe was awkwardly exining but felt that the more he exined, the less clear it became.


    “I…” He closed his eyes and was about to exin further when Charlotte suddenly tugged at his tie.


    Joe looked at Charlotte in surprise, only to realize that her gaze was still hazy, indicating that she


    hadn’t sobered up.


    “What are you trying to do?” Joe tried to lean back, wanting to free himself without harming Charlotte.


    Unfortunately, Charlotte didn’t give him that chance.


    Not only did she tightly clutch Joe’s tie, but she also unbuttoned his shirt. The delicate buttons flew


    against the wall and then dropped to the floor, finally rolling under the bed.


    Joe had no choice but to quickly undo his tie and let Charlotte lead him.


    Luckily, after all this fuss, Charlotte fell into a contented sleep, no longer troubling Joe.


    Joe looked at his crumpled shirt and helplessly said to Charlotte’s sleeping face,


    “You sure sleep soundly…”


    Seeing that Charlotte was peacefully asleep, he decided to take a shower and change his clothes


    himself.


    Soon, the sound of running water filled the bathroom.


    At that moment, Charlotte suddenly opened her eyes, furrowing her brow as she discarded the tie in


    her hand and walked to the bathroom door.


    The door, which had been left unlocked out of concern for Charlotte, was easily pushed open by her.


    Joe was startled, his face filled with astonishment as he looked towards the doorway.


    “Charlotte?”


    Joe couldn’t believe his eyes as he stared at her, never expecting her to appear at the door.


    Then, he btedly grabbed a towel and quickly covered himself up.
