Chapter 590 You Have a Fever Before returning, Charlotte had worried whether they could accept Peter, given that he was suddenly brought home as such a little brother. To her surprise, not only did they not reject him, but they even warmly welcomed him. “Now, I’m a big sister.” Anna affectionately held Peter’s hand, announcing their very close relationship! Seeing Peter’s helpless expression, Charlotte also smiled. “Mom! Let’s play a role-playing game?” Anna was very excited, hugging Charlotte’s thigh and swaying cutely. The dizziness Charlotte had felt inexplicably earlier came over her again. She hadn’t even had a chance to talk to Anna when everything went dark, and she fainted completely. When she woke up again, she had already been safely brought back to the bedroom. “Are you all right? Is there anywhere that doesn’t feel right?” Seeing Charlotte open her eyes, Joe promptly handed her a glass of warm water. “What happened to me?” Charlotte opened her mouth and found that her voice had become hoarse and unpleasant, and she even had trouble pronouncing some words. “You have a fever,” frowned Joe, looking at Charlotte. “Didn’t you feel anything at all?” When Vincent arrived, Charlotte’s temperature was nearly 40 degrees Celsius, a fever that was indeed quite alarming. “To be honest, I’ve been feeling a bit unwell, but I thought it was just temporary,” Charlotte forced a smile.

Mr. Brown personally invited you to the banquet tonight, and it wouldn’t be good to miss it.” Joe still insisted on staying to take care of Charlotte, but in the end, he couldn’t resist her determination. He said with a deep look in his eyes, “If you feel unwell, remember to call Vincent. I’ve asked him to stay here with you, and I’ll be back in at most half an hour.” A series of instructions made Charlotte find it somewhat amusing. She waved her hand, saying, “I know! If others discover that the usually aloof Mr. Smith is quite chatty, I’m afraid your image will be compromised.” Joe gave her a faint glance. “Besides you, who else would dare to speak to me like this?” Charlotte nodded with a smile. “Exactly! They are all afraid of you.” Joe gazed deeply at the obviously overly lively Charlotte, planted a kiss on her forehead, and finally left. Arriving at the banquet hall, Joe’s expression was not particularly pleasant. Those who knew him understood that he was not in a good mood right now, and no one dared to approach him.
