273 She Picks Him up from Work
Isabe sat on a bench and sent a message to Joseph, “Do you work overtime tonight? Are youing home for dinner?”
Joseph replied quickly, “I can work overtime if you want me to. And I can go home if you want me to.”
Isabe replied with a smile, “Don’t work overtime. That’s what I want.”
Joseph yfully sent her another message, “What do you want then?”
Isabe knew that Joseph was trying to find himself an out. She decided to y along with him, “I want you. I miss you so much.”
After almost one minute, Isabe received his reply, “I’m on my way now.”
Isabe was stunned. Was he going home now?
She immediately stood up and walked towards the Global Building.
She asked Cedric to drop her off here because it was near the Global Building.
.....
Thinking that Joseph took her homest night even was drunk. Not only did he exin, but also sleep with her, Isabe thought that she shouldn’t ask more.
Joseph had a terrible attitude when they met. But he had learned how to make an apology and exin to her in less than one month. Although it was something wrong with his attitude and the way when he did that, it was a great improvement for him!
She didn’t expect that a young man, who was born with a silver spoon, turned into a mature family man overnight. It was indeed a great improvement that he had changed for her!
Perhaps she was unreasonable sometimes. As Jane put it, Joseph treated Ste in the same way as Isabe treated Lukas. Isabell might step in and offered help if Lukas was in danger and might die, even he was scum.
It was eptable if she were in Joseph’s position. Joseph was not all bad. Isabe would not risk her happy future being ruined by misunderstanding.
Joseph said at noon that he was going to buy her a ring.
They had a future.
All of a sudden, she missed Joseph very much and decided to pick him up from work.
She wanted to give him a surprise. It was easy to deal with this moody man if she didn’t rub him the wrong way.
Thinking of this, Isabe speeded up and walked towards the Global Building.
Joseph’s car, an eye-catching Rolls-Royce, was pulled over at the entrance. Isabe knew that Gerry had driven the car here and Joseph would drive hometer.
Isabe smiled. She was thinking how Joseph would react when he saw her. She walked slowly towards the car.
The automatic doors slid open. Joseph quickly walked out. His ck hairbed back, revealing his smooth forehead and beautiful eyes. He looked capable and aggressive.
Dressing in a ck suit, Joseph was an outstanding, noble and invincible gentleman.
He was indeed attractive.
Isabe pursed her lips in satisfaction. Her future husband looked cool in silence.
“Joseph!”
Seeing that Joseph was about to get in the car, Isabe tried to stop him. Suddenly, a car came from behind.
There was no time for Isabe to react. Thinking that she was going to be hit, Isabe was so scared and stepped back, falling to the ground.
A pink sports car stopped right in front of her.
“Isabe?”
Hearing that a sports car stopped, Joseph and Gerry checked it and ran over when seeing Isabe. Joseph hurriedly bent down to pick her up, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.”
Joseph reached out his hand. Before Isabe put her hand into his, someone suddenly ran to Joseph.
Joseph didn’t catch Isabe.
“Joseph.”
A woman cried out in pain. Isabe saw a woman running into Joseph’s arms.
She was tall, slim, and stylish.
She was a beautiful woman.
Joseph was stunned, “Ste? Why are you here? I thought you are in the hospital.”
This woman was Ste Bell.
“I am so scared.”
Ste cried, “Whenever closing my eyes, I saw the kidnapper threatening me with a knife. I’m freaking out.”
“You should follow the doctor’s advice and get on with your treatment. You will be fine soon.”
Joseph held her and patted her head gently, “Believe me, there are no bad people here.”
“Joseph, I’ll only be safe when you’re by my side. Could you please stay with me?”
Ste cried in pain, “Please don’t leave me.”
“I’m busy with my work. I have sent people to protect you. Don’t worry about that, okay?” It was seldom to see Joseph being so patient.
Looking at them holding tightly, Isabe brushed off the dust and stood up. She sat on the steps aside.
Joseph looked up and realized that Isabe was there.
“Be a good girl, Ste. The psychologist is the only one who can help you get rid of your fear.” After saying that, he turned to Gerry and said, “You take Ste to the hospital personally.”
“Yes!”
Gerry answered. He came over to hold Ste. After letting go of Ste, Joseph nced at Isabe. He walked over and reached out, “Did you hurt?”
Although Isabe was unhappy to see her future husband holding another woman, she didn’t jealous since Ste had just survived and copsed.
Therefore, she said, “I’m fine. I just fell.”
Isabe put her hand into Joseph’s. Joseph pulled her up and leaned over to brush the dust for her. He was annoyed, “Why didn’t you watch your steps? What if you were hit? Why are you here?”
“I’ve just finished my work and decided to pick you up from work. That’s why I’m here.”
Isabe looked up and noticed that Ste was looking at them surprisingly. Her big eyes were very beautiful.
She looked stunning even her hair was messy.
Ste looked even more beautiful in person than on TV. No wonder Joseph was crazy about her. No man could resist her beauty.
She looked sad now and made people eager to protect her.
Isabe was suddenly relieved and smiled at Ste.
Joseph nced at Isabe and adjusted her skirt and shirt for her. Then he said in a low voice, “She is Ste. I suppose that you’ve seen her on TV.”
“Yes, I have seen her before.”
“We were...”
“It’s fine. I understand.”
Isabe turned around and faced Joseph. She then took out a tissue, wiping off tears on his suit. Looking at what she was doing, Joseph suddenly burstughter. He whispered, “Aren’t you jealous?”
“Yes, a little.”
Isabe said honestly, “But she does not look good now. She just survived a disaster and you saved her. I understand that shees to you when she is depressed.”
