Chapter 582 She Really Sees Me as a Thorn He had always thought that Charlotte was kept in the dark, but he didn’t expect that she had known about it long ago and even communicated with David in advance. “But why did you suddenly bring this up?” Charlotte frowned. David had been out of the country for so long… Then, Joe told Charlotte about the threats from Sandra. Charlotte sneered, “It seems like she really sees me as a thorn in her side.” Although Sandra was from a distant branch of the Faulkner Family, she had been very active in the family for years. There were even rumors that Huxley might groom Sandra as the heir to the family. She probably never dreamed that, just as victory seemed within her grasp, there would suddenly be an unexpected turn of events. She couldn’t have imagined that the legitimate heir, Congreve, would turn out to have a biological daughter. Billions of dollars in family assets disappeared right before her eyes. It was unimaginable for anyone to accept.
“With me around, she won’t have a chance to harm you,” Joe suddenly held Charlotte’s hand and pulled her into his arms with a strong grip. He lowered his eyes slightly and met Charlotte’s gaze in his arms. “Since this matter is already settled… should we do something else…” Without waiting for Charlotte to speak, he kissed her passionately. In the misty hot spring pool, Charlotte clung tightly to Joe’s body. She felt like the spring water in the pool, drifting with the
flow, following Joe’s every movement. In the end, Charlotte didn’t even know how she had fallen asleep… The next morning, Charlotte woke up in the sunlight. Enter title… She turned her head and found that Joe was no longer in the room. A note on the table said that he had gone to make breakfast for her. Because this courtyard was originally only used for vacations, there was no kitchen, so Joe had to go through the lobby to the club’s kitchen. After some consideration, Charlotte decided to get dressed and find Joe. Her movements were quick, and she headed out the door after getting herself ready. When she arrived the previous night, it was already evening, and she hadn’t seen many of the scenic views at the club. As daylight broke, sunlight bathed the club’s surroundings, and Charlotte realized how exceptionally beautiful this place was. Even if she did nothing but stand in the garden, she felt incredibly relaxed all over. It was no wonder so many people were drawn to this hot spring club, willing to wait a year to experience it. As she stood in the courtyard with her eyes closed, basking in the sunlight, a stumbling sound suddenly came from the entrance. Charlotte turned around and saw a young girl in a red dress. Unlike the other girls, her skin was pure white, so white that it exceeded the normal range. Charlotte immediately noticed that this child was different from the others; she seemed to have albinism. The young one, somewhat frightened upon seeing Charlotte, stared at her and asked, “Excuse me,
have I come to the wrong place?” Despite her best efforts to remain calm, Charlotte could still see the child’s frustration and nervousness. She smiled gently and reassured him, “It’s okay. If you’re looking for someone, I can help you.” The little girl blinked and said, “My dad and I have parted ways.”
