Chapter 865 Forgot About My Existence
Charlotte was completely impressed this time. These two kids hadn’t even started elementary school, and they already knew how to manipulate their mother. They even used her personal information to book tickets online. Charlotte thought for a moment and said seriously to the two kids, “During this trip, besides having fun, you both have to finish reading a book. Is that okay?” Ben and Anna had a habit of reading, so reading a book was not difficult for them. They readily agreed. An hour later, the two of them sat in the car on the way to the airport, each holding a legal-related book with blank expressions on their faces. Little did they know that the books their mom had assigned them to read would be this. Charlotte, on the other hand, was quite satisfied with this scene. The two kids were still young, and if they didn’t have a sense of awe, they would become even more unruly in the future. Once, they made a serious mistake… It would be too late to teach them a lesson then. She withdrew her satisfied gaze, feeling like she had forgotten something but couldn’t recall it. Charlotte didn’t dwell on the suspicion that she might have forgotten to pack
something. If she had indeed left something behind, she could always buy it on the ship. On the other side, Joe hurriedly returned home. Originally, he had planned to stay with Charlotte all day, but some unexpected matters arose at the company, forcing him to make a quick trip to the office before rushing back. However, when he returned, he hadn’t expected to find the mansion completely empty.
Not only was Charlotte missing, but Ben and Anna were nowhere to be seen either. Without thinking much, he assumed that Charlotte had taken Ben and Anna out for shopping after waking up. He placed the carefully prepared gifts on the bed, then went downstairs to inquire with Mr. River, “Did Charlotte and the kids mention when they would be back?” Mr. River thought that Joe had known about their departure, so he replied, “They said it would be about three months.” “What?” Joe hesitated and looked at Mr. River, thinking he might have misheard. “Three months?” Mr. River, sensing that something was amiss, adopted a subtle expression and replied, “You don’t know where they went?” At this point, Joe realized that something was indeed wrong. Could it be that Charlotte was upset after what had happened last night? “Where have they gone?” Countless thoughts raced through his mind as Joe picked up his coat and prepared to leave. It wasn’t until the housekeeper informed him of the trio’s destination. Antarctica. Very well. Now Joe knew that Charlotte hadn’t left home in anger; after all, no one would choose to get up close and personal with penguins when running away from home. So, only one possibility remained. Ten minutes later, Charlotte received a call filled with unusual grievances. “It seems that I didn’t try hard enough last night. I didn’t leave a lasting impression on my wife, which is why she forgot about my existence when going out.” Charlotte was speechless.
The impact of Ben and Anna’s convincing her to sign the contract was so significant that she had completely forgotten about Joe… “I…” Charlotte hadn’t even come up with her defense when Joe snorted and hung up. Charlotte glanced at the still oblivious Ben and Anna, wondering if she had time to buy an extra ticket now. Ben and Anna felt Charlotte’s gaze and asked curiously, “Mom, what happened?” Charlotte shook her head helplessly. “Although it hasn’t happened yet, something is about to happen very soon.” She proceeded to tell the two children about what had just transpired, and soon, two worried little faces appeared in the car.
