Chapter 580 How Should You Appease Her? She had always been held in high regard wherever she went due to being from a side branch of the Faulkner Family. It was bad enough to have repeatedly suffered losses in front of Joe, but now, even a mere security guard dared to stop her. No matter how much Sandra threatened or tempted, the security guard refused to budge. She could only glare at him angrily before leaving in frustration. Back in the office, Joe leaned back in his chair, his brows furrowed. He didn’t know how Sandra had found out about David’s situation. Even though he had merely sent the child to David, this matter could still be somewhat linked to him. Thinking about how close Charlotte and David had been in the past, Joe’s eyes darkened. He dialed an internal line and called for Jack. As soon as Jack entered the office, he sensed the atmosphere was not quite right. Why was his boss in a bad mood so early in the morning? Did he have an argument with Miss Clinton yesterday?
“It seems like you have quite a bit of free time to daydream here.” Just as Jack was lost in thought, Joe’s cool voice suddenly sounded, startling him. “I… I was just thinking you don’t seem to be in a good mood today, Mr. Smith,” Jack awkwardly replied with a smile. Joe’s gaze settled on Jack, silently observing him. Just as Jack began to feel that the smile on his face might freeze, Joe spoke up, “I remember you’re dating Charlotte’s assistant, right?” Jack’s eyes widened in surprise, “Yes… I don’t think the company has any regulations against that…”
Enter title… “Tsk.” Joe looked at him coldly, for the first time thinking that his assistant’s brain wasn’t functioning quite well. At that moment, Jack had already considered which languages to use for his next job application. “If a woman is angry, how should you appease her?” “I’ll go get my salary from the finance department… What?” Jack looked at Joe in astonishment. Mr. Smith asked him how to appease a woman… For a moment, he couldn’t distinguish whether it was scarier that Joe was asking him this question or that Joe was suggesting he resign. “If it’s Miss Clinton, I suggest you…” Jack spent the longest half hour of his life in the office. When he finally emerged, unable to hold back, he quietly sent a text message to Mandy. On this day, as usual, Joe arrived early to pick up Charlotte after work. “This doesn’t seem like the way back to the villa?” Charlotte looked at the gradually unfamiliar road outside the window and raised an eyebrow at Joe. Joe chuckled, “We’re not going home tonight. I’ve already talked to Ben and Anna.” Upon hearing this, Charlotte’s smile deepened, “Ben is easygoing, but Anna might not be so easily appeased.” Mentioning his witty and mischievous daughter, Joe’s eyes were filled with indulgence. He didn’t understand why such a young child had so many peculiar ideas in her head. Whenever he saw her smile, he regretted missing the first four years of their lives together and cherished every day he spent with them even more. “I promised to get her a kitten,” Joe replied.
Charlotte chuckled. Anna had been constantly pestering for a kitten, but Charlotte had made her think carefully about whether she could take on the responsibility of a life before buying one for her. Unexpectedly, Joe had already fulfilled her request. “We’ve arrived.” Charlotte raised her gaze and looked ahead, realizing that he had brought her to the most exclusive hot spring club in Capital City
