Chapter 603 Small Courtyard “Your… father?” Charlotte looked at him in surprise. Before marrying Joe, Charlotte only knew that his parents had died in a car accident, leaving behind a teenage kid Joe and an elderly man Sir Smith. The family of the Smith Family was very simple. Even on holidays, few relatives came to visit. In addition, Joe had always kept his parents’ death a secret, so Charlotte had never known about them. But now, it seemed that there was something else. Unfortunately, Joe seemed to have no intention of continuing, so Charlotte could only put aside her doubts for the time being. Joe drove Charlotte to an antique and unique courtyard. At first glance, it seemed to be similar to the CAL Restaurant, but after careful observation, one would find that this courtyard was mixed with a lot of modern and fashionable decorations, which looked inexplicably harmonious. Charlotte thought for a moment and remembered. “Isn’t it difficult to book this?” She looked warily at Joe. “Don’t tell me you run it again?” Joe lowered his head and chuckled. “It’s really not like that this time. It’s just that I happen to know the boss here. Recently, he has been asking me for a favor, so he specially reserved a place for me.” “What do you mean by asking for help?” A clear male voice sounded. Charlotte looked in the direction of the voice and saw a strong middle-aged man with a mustache coming in. He was holding an exquisite plate in his hand. “He’s the owner of this shop, Sheehan Lee. If there’s anything you’re not satisfied with, you can look for trouble with him directly.” Joe glanced at the man indifferently and explained to Charlotte. Enter title… Charlotte glanced at him. She knew that if they didn’t have a good relationship, Joe wouldn’t have acted so casually in front of him.
Sheehan also laughed and quickly put the dishes on the table. “He’s right. If you’re not satisfied, you can come to me.” After Sheehan left with a smile, Charlotte looked at Joe in surprise. “I didn’t expect you to have a friend of such an age.” “It’s just a coincidence.” Joe glanced at the dishes on the table and began to introduce them to Charlotte one by one. Not long after, someone knocked on the door of the private room. Charlotte looked up and found that it was Julie, whom she had just met during the day. Compared to the company, Julie looked much more relaxed. “I heard from Sheehan that you were eating here, so I came over to say hello. You don’t mind, do you?” Julie asked with a smile. Julie looked Charlotte up and down and suddenly took out an exquisite jewelry box. “I didn’t have time to give you a gift when we met at the company. You won’t be angry if I make it up to you now, will you?” “A gift for our first meeting?” Charlotte became more and more confused. Why did she feel that Julie seemed to treat her as a junior? Julie put down the jewelry box with a smile and nodded slightly at Joe. “You’ll explain the rest to her.” After that, she turned around and left the private room, as if she really just came in to give a gift and then left. After she left, Charlotte looked at Joe suspiciously and said, “Why do I feel that… she seems to be very familiar with you? She even treats you like an elder treating a junior.” Joe hesitated for a moment before nodding. “You’re right. Perhaps she has always thought herself to be my senior.” “But…” Charlotte’s question was not over yet. Joe asked her to finish dinner first, and then talk about the rest later. Charlotte had no choice but to have lunch with Joe out of curiosity. However, after this incident, she was absent-minded. Julie was really weird.
