NovelEnglishChapter 250 Joe Got a High Fever
Sir Smith let out a heavy sigh. “Joe had a fever a few days ago and it didn’t subside. He kept saying
sorry to you. I…”
Charlotte frowned.
When Joe left that day, everything seemed to be normal, but she didn’t expect…
“I know that he has let you down before and I don’t want you to forgive him.” Sir Smith sounded more
haggard. “I just want you to enlighten him, even if you have to scold or beat him. Is that okay?”
Sir Smith had established the Smith Group from zero and had been fighting in the business world for
half of his life. Even though he had retired behind the scenes, he still had a deterrent effect.
But now, he begged her with such a low attitude. Charlotte really couldn’t refuse him.

“Let me send you there,” Gideon said gently after listening to their conversation.
Charlotte nodded, and they drove to Sun House together.
Before getting out of the car, Gideon asked her, “Do you need me to wait for you here?”
Charlotte glanced at the villa behind her and thought for a moment. “Okay, it won’t take long.”
Gideon smiled and nodded. “It doesn’t matter. I’ll wait for you no matter how long.”
Charlotte was stunned, but since Gideon had already driven away, she did not say anything else.
The butler had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw Charlotte, he immediately
showed a big smile. “Miss Clinton. Sir Smith has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Charlotte nodded slightly and felt the tense atmosphere in the Sun House, as well as the overt and
covert inquiry sight lines.
She didn’t care and went straight to the study room of Sir Smith under the guidance of the butler.
Sir Smith was leaning against the sofa, resting with his eyes closed. When he heard her coming in, he
opened his eyes with a tired face and said, “Charlotte.”
“Are you all right?”
Charlotte looked at him with concern. No matter how Joe treated her, Sir Smith had been very kind to
her all these years. She didn’t want anything to happen to him.
Sir Smith shook his head. “I’m fine. I’ve seen all kinds of things when I was young.”
He changed the subject. “Do you know what’s going on with Joe?”
Charlotte hesitated for a moment and told Sir Smith about the story of the kidnapping and Wendy,
hiding the fact that she was the person Joe was looking for.
Sir Smith was furious. “He said that Wendy saved his life before. I thought it was something else, but it

fool!”
After scolding him angrily, he looked at Charlotte and said, “I have to trouble you to persuade him. If
you can’t persuade him, just forget it.”
He said in a deep voice, “The children of the Smith Family could withstand such a blow.”
Charlotte was noncommittal. She turned around and went to
Joe’s room.
The light in the room was dark. Charlotte turned on the light and saw Joe sleeping soundly on the bed.
She had never seen him so fragile. His pale face and abnormally red lips made him look particularly
weak under the light.
“Joe…” Charlotte called out twice but did not hear any response.
and leave, Joe slowly
opened his eyes.
Frowning, he looked in Charlotte’s direction and asked in a hoarse voice, “Why are you here?”
