Chapter 597 Being Jealous
David had never imagined that Joe would be like this when he was jealous.
As he observed the jealousy burning in the eyes of the distinguished Joe and unable to do anything about it, Davidâs smile
grew even wider.
âI just spoke a few truths, Mr. Smith. Are you angry?â David shrugged. âIâm here waiting attentively, you know. If you
mistreat her in the slightest, I wonât hesitate to take her away.â
Five minutes later, David was unceremoniously escorted out of the villa by Joe.
Standing in the dim light outside, David turned to look at the brightly lit mansion, chuckling self-
deprecatingly.
When he left all those years ago, he knew he and Charlotte were no longer a possibility.
Now that he had returned, it was just his refusal to give up, wanting to give himself one last chance.
The fact proved that Joe wouldnât give him this opportunity, and the one who had been eagerly watching should have been him.
After David left, Charlotte planned to go back inside, but she was stopped by Joeâs firm grip.
He trapped Charlotte in her chair, his gaze deep and penetrating. âDinner with him?â
Charlotte chuckled softly. âIt wasnât just me; it was also Ben, Anna, and Peterâ¦â
Joe slowly leaned closer to Charlotte, a faint scent of alcohol immediately filling her nostrils.
âNot just you; he wants to take my son and daughter too?â Joeâs forehead pressed against Charlotteâs, and the scent of
alcohol lingered around them as if even Charlotte was about to get drunk.
In the distance, insects were chirping, and a gentle breeze blew past them. Charlotte reached out, hooking her fingers
around Joeâs neck. âWe just happened to meet at the kindergarten gate. Youâre not still jealous of him, are you?â
Enter titleâ¦
Joe gazed at her, then suddenly let out a light laugh.
He didnât hesitate to capture her lips, his kiss domineering and passionate, claiming every bit of her sweetness.
As the kiss ended, Charlotteâs eyes were misty, and in the depths of Joeâs eyes, there was a profound desire churning.
âI and him, thereâs no possibility between us anymore. Even without your existence, weâ¦â Charlotte explained in a low
voice, but her words were silenced by Joeâs fingers pressing against her lips.
The two of them locked eyes in silence.
Just when Charlotte thought he had something to say, Joe suddenly lifted her up and walked into the villa with large
strides.
Joe threw Charlotte onto the bed, and before she had a chance to get up, he had already placed his hands on either side
of her head, his voice low and hoarse, âOne day without me by your side and someone brainless comes pestering you.â
Capital City was so vast. How could David have encountered Charlotte so easily? It was clearly a deliberate move.
He had never doubted Charlotte, but seeing David standing next to her, it was hard for him not to be reminded of those
days when she was struggling, and he wasnât by her side.
Bitter emotions surged within him, leaving him at a loss, instinctively holding her, kissing her, and giving in to her with the
most primal of impulses.
The next morning, Charlotte almost couldnât get out of bed.
Even though Joe said he didnât care, his actions repeatedly proved otherwise.
Clutching her incredibly sore arms, Charlotte brushed her teeth with a grimace, cursing Joe in her mind a thousand times.
Joe knew he had gone too far. His attitude was particularly considerate. Not only did he prepare breakfast for Charlotte,
but he also personally escorted her to the company parking lot before leaving.
Charlotte found it both curious and amusing.
However, not long after she entered her office, an unexpected visitor stormed in with anger.
