Chapter 233 He was stunned to see her
Allen was waiting impatiently, but just as he was about to leave in fury, he saw a man and a woman
walking towards him and his secretary.
The man was handsome in a white suit, but his eyes were icy-cold.
The woman was wearing a long red dress with a white satin belt. She had a slender figure. It was a
strapless dress with a high slit that set off her perfect figure. The dress fluttered as she walked
gracefully, subtly revealing her long and beautiful legs. She looked breathtakingly gorgeous.
Allen was stunned to see her. Her appearance came like a lightning strike.
“Baby…”his world suddenly went silent and he could only see Joey walking toward him.
Was he daydreaming?
Although the sunglasses covered half of Joey’s face, he recognized her at once. He had been
searching for her in the past four years, and she suddenly showed up and walked towards him. He had
missed her terribly, but why did she look so strange now?
She looked beautiful, sexy and confident, which was quite different from her in the past who, as he
remembered, had been a conservative, fragile, gentle and innocent girl.
Joey came up to him just as he was still reeling from the shock. She took off her sunglasses and
looked up at him with a beautiful smile. Her voice was slightly distant and calm, “Mr. Chares, how are
you? I’m Zoey. Nice to meet you. Thanks for picking me up at the airport.”
Just then, Ms. Carol, who had been staring at Joey in astonishment, accidentally dropped the sign she
had been holding over her head to the ground.
Ms. Carol had always thought that Mrs. Charles, Yolanda was the most beautiful woman she had ever
seen in real life, and for a time she had thought that she would never meet another woman more
beautiful than Yolanda. But she suddenly felt that she had come to her conclusion too soon.
Miss Zoey was absolutely more beautiful than Yolanda both in appearance and temperament.
She was so impressed by her beauty after she took off her sunglasses that she even forgot her duties
at the moment.
However, Allen paid no attention to her. All his attention was drawn to Joey’s sudden appearance. He
stared at her for a long time. Suddenly, he took a step forward and held her tightly in his arms. He was
overjoyed, “Baby, you’re back. You're back, baby…”
Her heart ached at his touch. She didn’t move or struggle as he held her in his arms. Her heart was
trembling. His embrace was as warm and familiar as before. It felt nice, but she couldn’t enjoy it
anymore.
Philip frowned at the sight, but he didn’t say anything or step forward to stop it. If she changed her mind
after a hug, it only meant that all her efforts over the past few years have been in vain and she hadn’t
changed for better. And he genuinely hoped that Joey was a mature young woman now.
In fact, Joey’s maturity and determination went far beyond Philip’s imagination. She allowed herself to
grieve for a minute and then pushed Allen away coldly, “I never thought Mr. Charles would be such a
frivolous person. I’m not your baby. I’ve said that my name is Zoey and I’m here to invest in your city. If
you don’t pay more attention to your behavior, I’m afraid this visit won’t be necessary.”
“No, you’re my baby. Why? Why do you claim to be Miss Zoey? And why do you act like you don’t even This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
know me? Tell me why.”
Her indifference completely stung his heart. He looked in disbelief at her who didn’t seem to know him,
and his eyes were heartbreakingly sad.
When Ms. Carol noticed how unusual Mr. Charles was today, she was afraid that he might upset Miss
Zoey and the investment plan would fall through. She quickly recollected herself and smiled at Joey
and Philip, “I’m sorry, I think Mr. Charles may have mistaken you for someone else. You must be tired
after such a long flight. I have booked a hotel for you two. The car is right over there, this way
please.”
