Chapter 415 Receiving an Invitation At eight o’clock, all the lights in the castle were turned off, and the children exclaimed. Soon, a birthday song rang out. Charlotte and Joe were singing a birthday song while pushing out an exquisite threetiered cake. “Wow!” The children gathered around and stared at the cake in front of them. They were so cute that Charlotte softened, and her originally gloomy mood suddenly disappeared. She said gently to them, “Don’t worry, everyone will have it.” Anna hugged Charlotte’s neck and kissed her gently on the face, saying, “Ben said that our birthday is the day when our mother tiredly gave birth to us, so we should not only celebrate our birthday but also thank Mommy. Mommy, I love you.” Charlotte’s eyes immediately turned red. She never thought that they would say such a thing to her. She hugged the two children gently and said softly, “I love you too.” Not far away, Joe looked at the scene with a smile in his eyes.
In the following days, Joe didn’t do more to get close to her as Charlotte had presumed. Instead, he kept a proper distance from her, which made her heave a sigh of relief. After what had happened before, Charlotte no longer hated Joe as much as before. She even regarded him as an ordinary friend. But if they wanted to be closer… She hadn’t planned to do that yet. Enter title… In the following period, Linda, Brian, and even Lisa seemed to be silent, and the construction of the Holiday Resort
progressed very fast. However, Charlotte didn’t expect that Linda’s Resort Hotel was completed first! Perhaps to provoke Charlotte, Linda sent an invitation card deliberately and arrogantly, inviting her to attend the ceremony. Charlotte calculated the completion time of the Resort Hotel and couldn’t help frowning. She would attend the ceremony. On the day of the opening ceremony, Joe was sitting in the living room in a fancy black suit, waiting for Charlotte. He had also received an invitation from Linda, so it was natural for him to become Charlotte’s male companion in the name of protecting her. Mandy had recovered, and Sharon had returned to Albania to investigate what had happened to Brian because of the investigation he had done last time. Ben and Anna sat beside Joe. Anna asked a lot of questions. Just as Mr. River was about to take the two children away, he was surprised to find that Joe answered Anna’s every question with patience. While he was thinking, footsteps suddenly came from upstairs, and everyone looked over. This time, Charlotte picked a red evening dress that revealed her back, which made her skin look fair and delicate. She put on delicate makeup, and her red lips made her look more aggressive. Her well-proportioned and slender legs were stretched longer by the high heels. Even if she stood next to Joe, she didn’t look out of place. Joe’s eyes kept rolling. “Miss Clinton, you are so beautiful tonight.” Joe stepped forward, lifted a lock of Charlotte’s hair, and
tucked it behind her ear. It was a very simple move, but Joe made it look ambiguous. Charlotte couldn’t help but take a step back as if she wasn’t used to being so close to Joe. Joe laughed lightly and was not in a hurry. They had been apart for five years, and he had the patience to stay by her side until the moment she was willing to accept him
