Fled With CEO’s Twin Babies by Sherri Roman Chapter 571

Chapter 571 I Find It Dirty
“Mr. Smith, isn’t your attitude a bit hurtful for someone who has come with sincere intentions as a cooperative partner?”
Even though Sandra had an impressive ability to endure, Joe’s unabashed demeanor managed to infuriate her.
Joe chuckled softly, guiding Charlotte to sit on the sofa.
He lounged indolently against the couch, his voice icy and indifferent. “Perhaps you’ve forgotten, this is the Smith Group
building.”
The powerful aura emanating from the man and his disdainful attitude intrigued Sandra.
Before returning to the country, she had heard discussions about Mr. Smith from her friends.
They said he had a strong personality, employed ruthless methods, and was known to steer clear of women’s advances.
No matter how much effort they expended to pursue him, he remained unmoved.
She had initially thought it was just an external façade of a so-called gentleman, as men often portrayed themselves that
way.
However, having experienced countless men, Sandra was well aware that the person in front of her had absolutely no
interest in her.
This was intriguing.
This was the first time Sandra had truly paid attention to Charlotte besides Joe. “Perhaps Mr. Smith is targeting me due to
some misunderstanding from you? In fact…”
Charlotte smiled.
She cut off Sandra’s words without hesitation, her tone calm. “I can’t afford the label you are trying to pin on me, Miss
Faulkner. We’ve always maintained a clear distinction between public and private matters. We would never target
someone over such trivial issues.”
Enter title…
Although she said this, Charlotte’s attitude was a completely different story.
I’m targeting you. So what?
Sandra let out a meaningful “oh” and then turned to Joe again. “Mr. Smith, since your girlfriend has spoken, you must
provide me a valid reason for treating me this way. If our cooperation is disrupted due to such matters, I’m afraid your
shareholders won’t take it lightly.”
“We’re collaborating on mineral development, not running a nightclub,” Joe scoffed. “I have every reason to question your
professionalism and intentions.”
Sandra had deliberately chosen this outfit before coming to the Smith Group building. She didn’t expect Joe to use it as an
excuse to drive her away.
Sandra bit her l*p, flashing a flirtatious smile at Joe. “I’ve grown so accustomed to this style abroad that I didn’t consider
the domestic norms. It’s indeed my fault. However, I rushed out today and didn’t pack spare clothes in the car. Would it be
possible to borrow a shirt from you, Mr. Smith?”
Her intention was quite clear when her gaze intentionally or unintentionally swept over the adjacent lounge.
Little did she know, the mockery in Joe’s eyes intensified. “I find it dirty.”
Sandra widened her eyes and pointed at Joe. “You!”
She finally understood where her friends’ comments came from. Joe was not just stern; he was utterly disdainful, utterly
rude!
She had compromised to such an extent, yet he showed no intention of letting up!
Taking a deep breath, Sandra managed to force a smile. “In that case, I’ll go buy some clothes to change into. Please wait
a moment.”
With that, she left the office.
Charlotte turned to Joe and raised an eyebrow. “Miss Faulkner really has quite a lot of patience.”
Joe also furrowed his brows. Why was Sandra so openly approaching him? What was her motive?
Just then, Officer Carter called.
On the phone, Officer Carter informed Charlotte about the investigation results regarding Sandra. Finally, Charlotte
understood why Sandra had the audacity to appear so openly by Joe’s side.
As it turned out, not long after Charlotte had submitted evidence to the police, one of Sandra’s friends had turned herself
in overseas.
She claimed to be a confidant of Derek and held a grudge against Charlotte due to Derek’s affairs. Therefore, she was
doing their best to make things difficult for Charlotte.
