Chapter 681 I’ll Leave With You

Once they finished speaking, a black car stopped before the studio, followed by Joseph's appearance. Charlotte hopped while waving to him. "Uncle Joseph."

With a smile, he approached her and looked at Zoe, asking, "Charlotte, who's this?"

"This is Zoe Hart, Leanna's friend," she replied.

After nodding as a greeting, he did not ask anything else and turned to Charlotte. "Come on. Let's go."

Yet, she took a step back and shook her head. "I have to ask for my dad's permission, but he's not answering my calls. Can we leave tomorrow morning?"

When Joseph heard that, he stopped for a moment. "What's the matter? Didn't we agree this afternoon? You think I'd harm you?"

"No, that's not it. I think leaving without saying anything is inappropriate, lest my dad gets worried."

He gently reasoned, "I'll contact your father immediately after we arrive. How about that?"

Then, Zoe pulled Charlotte to her side. "Mr. Woodley, how about waiting another night? That way, both Charlotte and her father would feel more assured."

Joseph glanced at Zoe and adjusted his glasses, explaining, "The situation is ever-changing. Who knows what might happen tomorrow if we wait another night?"

Charlotte suggested, "How about I call Dad again? Maybe he'll pick up this time."

Right after she took out her phone, several cars sped over and surrounded the workshop. At almost the same time, Keaton and the others immediately went forward and stopped those guys.
