Chapter 395 The Woman in His Arms
Thanks to Joe, Charlotte finally understood what it meant to be rich but stupid.
But after thinking about it carefully, what he said made sense, so he said, “You don’t have to do this. I can afford it myself.”
Joe said helplessly, “Do you think I have too much money to spend? I can build an amusement park for Ben and Anna.”
The auction outside was still in full swing, and the two of them had already begun to discuss the usage of the island.
Downstairs.
Derek looked gloomy. He had never expected that the price of the island, which he was determined to get, would be raised to more than 300 million, and the other party was far more confident than him.
He rubbed his glabella.
His girlfriend, Vivian Mae, comforted him, “It’s just an island of unknown background. The rumor may not be true. Even if there is a mine, who knows what it is? It’s too risky.”

He nodded. “I understand. It’s just that the failure of this island will affect our follow-up plans.”
Speaking of this, Vivian bit her lower lip. “Do I have to do that?”
Derek leaned over and gently grabbed Vivian by the hand. “You know my family… Don’t worry. I won’t let you do anything against your bottom line.”
Vivian looked at her boyfriend and nodded.
Derek glanced at the picture of the island on the screen, and his eyes were gloomy.
In the end, Joe bought the island at a price of 350 million dollars, and it belonged to Charlotte.
Charlotte failed to refuse several times and had to accept it helplessly.
Then Charlotte bought a pair of emerald cufflinks as a gift to Joe to express her gratitude.
Joe put on the cufflinks on the spot to show that he liked them very much.
Behind him, Jack watched expressionlessly as Joe casually threw his cufflinks worth 200,000 dollars aside. Suddenly, he felt his teeth ache.
After the auction, Charlotte and Joe did not leave in a hurry because they had to wait for the organizer to complete the transaction procedure.
While they were waiting, someone suddenly knocked on the door of the private room.
Jack took a look through the monitor and found that it was Derek.
Charlotte frowned. She had an intuition that she couldn’t let Derek know that she had seen her here today.

She looked around and was about to go to the bathroom to avoid him when Joe pressed down on her shoulder.
“No, Mr. Clinton should have seen Sharon. Let him go.”
Sharon glanced at him coldly and walked into the bathroom.
“Then I…” As soon as Charlotte opened her mouth, she was picked up by Joe and placed on his lap with her back to the door.
Charlotte was shocked. “What are you doing?”
Joe pressed down on her head. “He won’t find out.”
She would rather Derek find out, because she and Charlie were in such a weird position.
But at this time, Derek had already walked into the private room. Seeing Joe holding his female companion in an ambiguous manner, he said apologetically, “Sorry to disturb you.”
Charlotte couldn’t move even if she wanted to. She could only lean on Joe’s shoulder.
After he felt that her resistance had decreased, the corners of Joe’s mouth curled up. He even deliberately changed into a more comfortable position for her. “It doesn’t matter. She’s a little tired.”
Derek glanced at the female companion in his arms and didn’t care.
“My surname is Clinton. May I ask if Mr. Smith would like to consider transferring that island? I’m willing to pay another 30 million dollars on the basis of your bidding,” Derek said politely.
