Chapter 936 Jealousy
Actually, after Neil and Pedro formed an alliance, they spent some time discussing the password to the treasure map. However, they were slower than Joe. So, when they went to find the treasure with great interest, they got nothing. “Can I come with you in the afternoon?” Dennis looked at Ben and Anna eagerly. Fearing that Ben and Anna would disagree, he quickly raised his hand and said, “I promise to only go with you and won’t share your treasures.” Ben and Anna quickly turned to look at Charlotte and Joe. They also knew that they were in a competition and couldn’t let anyone join them casually.
But Joe and Charlotte were not worried that Dennis would do something. Charlotte smiled gently at Dennis, saying, “As long as your Dad and Mom agree, we have no problem with it.” Dennis quickly cheered and ran out of the room.
Unfortunately, his wish wasn’t granted because Pedro rejected him righteously and promised to take him to find the treasure in person. Not long after Dennis left, Charlotte’s room door was knocked again. When Charlotte opened the door and saw Max, who was a little embarrassed, she was surprised. “Mr. Dickson, how can I help you?” Max raised his head and cracked a wide smile at her. “I have heard about your deeds but have never had time to chat with you. Would you mind if I come over now?” Charlotte didn’t expect his visit, but she didn’t intend to embarrass him. She nodded quickly. “Of course not.” She didn’t know whether it was her misunderstanding, but she thought Max
seemed to be a little too enthusiastic toward her. As soon as he entered the room, Max’s eyes fell upon the unwrapped gift boxes on the table, and a trace of envy flashed. “You actually found so many treasures. You’re really amazing!” Max marveled. Max smiled at Charlotte. Although his tone was exaggerated, it was not annoying at all. Charlotte lowered her head and smiled, “We’re just lucky.” Not far away, Joe coldly looked at the two smiling at each other, and his face was terrifyingly gloomy. The netizens happened to watch that. [Mr. Smith must be jealous.] [See how Mr. Smith looks at him. He could cleave Mr. Dickson in half with nothing but a dark look. Mr. Dickson still got time to run away!] [It’s too late. Mr. Smith has already come over!] “Well… I…” Max was hesitant to speak. Before he could finish his sentence, he saw a figure standing in front of him and Charlotte. Stunned, he looked at the man in surprise. “Mr. Smith?” Max thought that Joe was aloof to outsiders, and he didn’t expect that Joe would take the initiative to chat with him. So, he was happy. Max didn’t notice Joe’s strange expression, but Charlotte could clearly see it. She knew Joe didn’t want Max to get too close to her, so he deliberately stood between them. If it were someone else, he might have misunderstood because of Joe’s behavior. But fortunately, Max had no such thoughts. Instead, he was very excited. “Mr. Smith, actually, I have admired you for a long time. I didn’t expect that I would have the opportunity to talk to you face to face now. It’s really…”
Max couldn’t contain his excitement. He looked at Joe, his eyes twinkling, and the admiration in his eyes was sincere. Joe never saw that coming. Originally, he just couldn’t stand Max smiling too brightly at Charlotte, but he didn’t expect Max’s real target to be himself. “Can I join you?” Max asked cautiously.
