Chapter 787 Reminiscence and Isles
He carefully thought back to all the times he had been with Charlotte. They
had spent time alone, but it seemed they had never actually been on a date.
Seeing Joeâs expression change, Charlotte guessed the answer.
She frowned, âWas our relationship not good before? Or was it a business
marriage?â
âNo, it seems we were both too busy to go on a proper date,â Joe said
helplessly.
Charlotte looked thoughtfully out the window and nodded.
Joe took Charlotte to an island.
He led her familiarly to a seaside villa and took her inside.
âWhat is this place?â Charlotte looked at Joe in confusion.
Joe smiled faintly, âThis is your island.â
âMy island?â Charlotteâs eyes widened in shock. Did she actually own an
island?

Joe remained silent, although Love Island had better scenery, the place left a deep psychological scar on him, so he didnât want to go there before Charlotte fully recovered. As a compromise, he brought Charlotte to the island she owned. He gave some instructions to Terry, the housekeeper, and then took Charlotte upstairs, âYou rest here for a bit. Iâll take you out to sea later.â Seeing his mysterious manner, Charlotte simply nodded. Just as Joe was about to leave, Charlotte suddenly called out to him, âWhat if Ben and Anna find out weâve left so hastily?â Ben and Anna had been clinging to her lately, and would probably be heartbroken if they suddenly found her missing.
âDonât worry, Sir Smith will take care of them,â Joe smiled. Upon reflection,
they had left Ben and Anna alone several times before, so they should be
used to it by now.
Seeing that Joe wasnât worried at all, Charlotte also felt relieved.
After Joe left, Charlotte toured the villa and found that the decorations and
furnishings were very much to her liking, making her feel very comfortable.
At this point, Terry came over and looked at Charlotte with a warm smile, âThe
decoration and furnishings of this place were all meticulously arranged by Mr.
Smith. All the blueprints and staff had been reviewed by Mr. Smith himself.
We were all curious about who would receive such special treatment from him. Seeing you today, I think you two are a perfect match.â
Terryâs words made Charlotte feel a rare sense of shyness. If nothing had
gone wrong at their wedding, she and Joe would be very happy right now,
wouldnât they?
Joe was gone for the whole afternoon, and Charlotte eventually fell asleep
while waiting for him.
It wasnât until the sky began to darken that Charlotte woke up.
Groggily, she saw a figure sitting beside her bed. She was about to scream
for help but realized that the person was Joe.
âWhy are you sitting here?â Charlotte asked curiously.
âI saw you sleeping so soundly, I thought Iâd let you get some good rest. Itâs
not often that you can let go and relax,â Joe said with a smile to Charlotte.
Charlotte paused and realized that the nap she had just taken was the most
comfortable one she had in a while.
âIâve had enough rest, youâ¦â Charlotte hesitated, looking at Joe.
