Having just obtained the marriage certificate, Joe casually took it from her hand. “We won’t need this thing in the future. Let me put it away for you.”
Charlotte couldn’t help but smile wryly. “Have you been reading too many novels about overbearing presidents? Do you think that by keeping the marriage certificate, you’ll prevent a divorce?”
Joe’s movements froze for a moment, and he glanced at Charlotte with a hint of seriousness. “Are you even thinking about getting a divorce?”
“Of course not…”
Charlotte didn’t expect him to turn the tables on her so quickly. Before she could explain, he had already put the marriage certificate away.
Charlotte had a feeling that she might never see these certificates again in the future.
With the marriage certificate done simply and ordinarily, Charlotte felt a bit lost.
Was it really ending like this?
Suddenly, Joe grabbed her hand, and the warm touch brought her back to reality.
“Weren’t you going to give me a gift? How about giving it to me now?” Joe looked at Charlotte and said.
Then, Charlotte remembered her true purpose in talking to Joe earlier that morning. She sighed, “I knew something was off… Alright, let’s go.”
As the two of them drove through the city center, Charlotte’s attention was suddenly drawn to a billboard outside the window.
On it was a pair of clasped hands. She didn’t know when Joe had taken this picture, but Charlotte immediately recognized that they were their intertwined hands.
Under the photo was an elegant handwritten message: “Thank you for marrying me.”
Charlotte gazed into the distance and realized that it wasn’t just this one billboard; nearly all the central street lamps were occupied by this image.
Online discussions about this mysterious advertising photo had already sparked significant attention.
“Who are the wealthy couple behind this, who boldly reserved all the billboards?”
“They seem so happy in their marriage.”
“What have our singles done to deserve this sweet bombardment?”
Reading the comments from netizens, Charlotte couldn’t help but smile.
Based on the destination provided by Charlotte, the driver brought the car to an address on the outskirts of the first ring road. Upon arrival, the driver seemed bewildered.
“This place…”
He remembered that this place had been circled and it was supposed to be developed. Why did it look like this now?
Joe led Charlotte out of the car and was stunned when he saw the magnificent and grand four-courtyard estate in front of him.
If he remembered correctly, this piece of land should have been in the hands of Trevor. He had considered buying it before, but Trevor had held onto it and refused to let it go. He never expected it would end up in Charlotte’s possession.
“Is this the surprise you have for me?” Joe tightly held Charlotte’s hand and instantly understood.
No wonder he had been instructing Jack to arrange the land auction for so long without any follow-up. It turned out Charlotte had secretly prepared this surprise without letting him know.
Charlotte smiled and said, “I asked Jack to keep it a secret from you. He even wanted me to clarify that I planned this all by myself, and he had no involvement.”
Joe chuckled softly and led Charlotte inside.
They pa*sed through the corridor, and inside was a small garden. A delicate pond and an artificial hill stood in the center of the garden, surrounded by layers of greenery and flowers that extended all the way around. Walking in, they both felt a sense of tranquility and pleasure.
They walked through the gallery and arrived at the main residence.
For the sake of comfort, Charlotte had chosen a three-story small house. The mythical creatures on the roof were all charming and adorable.
