Chapter 866 You Want to Act Like It Never Happened?
When Charlotte, Ben, and Anna arrived at the airport, Joe was already waiting for
them.
Enter title…
“Working a whole day, you must be tried.”
Charlotte greeted Joe with a big smile. Ben and Anna enthusiastically rushed into
Joe’s arms, welcoming him with a warmth they had never shown.
If only this warmth wasn’t compensation for forgotten memories.
Joe helplessly held Ben and Anna, his gaze fixed on Charlotte.
Charlotte’s gaze shifted as she said, “We really didn’t do it on purpose…”
To divert Joe’s attention, Charlotte quickly told him about the trick that Ben and
Anna played on her.
Ben and Anna widened their eyes in surprise. They hadn’t expected their mom to
push them away at such a crucial moment.
But under their dad’s questioning gaze, they had to play along and act obediently.

private plane.
Charlotte looked puzzled at Joe and said, “Are you sure it’s okay to leave for
three months? You’ve been really busy lately…”
Joe chuckled lightly and gazed deeply at Charlotte. “I usually spend a lot hiring
so many professionals, isn’t it for moments like this? If they can’t handle these
tasks, they might as well not work at all.”
In Capital City, Jack, who was working remotely, sneezed forcefully.
Staring at the mountain of paperwork on his desk, Jack’s face twisted in
bitterness. He entertained the thought of resigning for the hundred and first time.
To reach Antarctica, they had to gather in a city in Sylverlyn first, where they
would board a cruise ship and sail at sea for nearly a month before reaching their
destination.
Even before seeing the cruise ship, Ben and Anna were already excited.
The two children huddled together, whispering secrets to each other.
Charlotte eavesdropped for a while and realized they were discussing how to
feed penguins, making her laugh.
Joe took the opportunity to approach her.
“Are you okay?”
Charlotte was initially puzzled but then understood Joe’s meaning. Her face
began to turn red.
After all the commotion caused by Ben and Anna, she had almost forgotten what
had happened last night. With Joe asking like this, those images came rushing
back into her mind.
If there were a crack in the ground in front of her right now, she would
undoubtedly dive right into it.
Watching her ears turn red, Joe chuckled and slowly leaned closer to her.
“What’s this? You want to act like it never happened after last night?”
Feeling anxious and embarrassed, Charlotte quickly covered Joe’s mouth with
her hand, taking advantage of the fact that Ben and Anna hadn’t noticed their
actions.
“Don’t talk nonsense in front of the children,” Charlotte scolded him, giving him

She looked vibrant and lively as if someone had carefully adorned her with
colors, and every move she made reflected her vitality. Joe couldn’t help but be
captivated.
“Dad?”
Ben and Anna finished their conversation and curiously looked at Joe and
Charlotte.
Although Joe and Charlotte weren’t currently speaking, the two children keenly
sensed something peculiar in the atmosphere between them.
They thought their parents had quarreled, so they each crawled into their parents’
laps and began chattering.
Joe and Charlotte exchanged a glance, and with a sense of resignation, they
reassured them, “Don’t worry. Mommy and Daddy didn’t argue. We were just…”
Charlotte quickly glanced at Joe and finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was
glad they didn’t have to discuss what happened last night.
