351 You Are Arranged to Leave Tomorrow


    Isabe thought for a while and said, “Cedric, actually, I think...”


    “No, no, no, don’t say it.”


    Cedric suddenly pressed Isabe’s shoulder with strength, as if he was afraid of something. “Forget it, and don’t say anything now. Take a good rest these few days, live a good life, andplete your graduation ceremony. Don’t think about anything and don’t say anything either. Okay? Let’s hold everything until you’llpletely think it through and let go of it.”


    Isabe looked at Cedric with her eyes twinkled.


    Cedric’s eyes softened. “Isabe, at the blind date party that night, I said that we were very fated anyway and could get along with each other in a different identity. However, I don’t think that what I said is urate.”


    Isabe tilted her head and looked at Cedric.


    “Isabe, I love you.”


    Cedric said seriously, “I want to marry you and create a future with you. It’s not because I think we are suitable for each other... After spending a few days with you, I found that I really like you. I can’t live without you anymore. I want a home, where you wait for me to get off work every day and cook together every day...”


    Hearing that, Isabe was stunned.


    .....


    ...


    At the psychological treatment center of Peace City at 10 p.m.


    When Ste turned off the TV remote to lie down for rest, she saw Joseph entering her room, which made her pleasant and surprised. Her eyes twinkled, looking as pitiful as a deer. “Joseph, it’s sote. Why are youing here?”


    Joseph sat beside Ste’s bed, rubbed her head, and said gently, “Sorry for leaving you in the Tears of Blue Mirror but there was something unexpected that happened this morning.”


    “It’s fine. Didn’t you send a new ne to pick me up?” Ste held Joseph’s big hands and asked intimately and warmly, “What did you go this morning? Is it for business? When I asked Jayden and the others, they couldn’t tell me clearly.”


    Joseph looked down. He did not answer but said directly, “Ste, I have contacted a famous psychologist in the UK and arranged for you to go to the UK tomorrow morning.”


    Ste was stunned. “The UK... Will you go with me?”


    Looking at Ste, who was beautiful and gentle, Joseph’s eyes darkened. After quite a while, he said, “I can’t go because something happened to Gerry and I need to take care of him.”


    Ste said anxiously, “What happened to Gerry?”


    “He did something wrong. In order to prove his loyalty to me, he cut off one of his fingers.” Joseph said expressionlessly.


    The smile on Ste’s face suddenly froze.


    Ste suddenly realized that Joseph’s expression had been very different ever since he entered the room.


    Even though he was still gentle and amiable, the coldness and sharpness between his brows could not be concealed.


    “Joseph...”


    Ste called in a low voice.


    Joseph lowered his head, stood up, and interrupted Ste, “Ste, I am relieved to see that you are fine. I have to go. I will assign someone to drop you at the airport tomorrow...”


    “Joseph!”


    Ste sat up from the bed and pulled Joseph’s sleeve tightly. “I was not on purpose. Please don’t drive me away! I can’t leave Peace City. I can’t leave you. And I can’t stand living without you!”


    Joseph’s body froze. “Ste, the doctor said that you can’t be stimted now. Some things are better not to mention. Go to the UK for treatment. I promise to provide you with the best treatment method so that you can recover as soon as possible.”


    Then, he pulled away Ste’s hands.


    “Why I did that was because I saw that you were so tired from taking care of me!”


    Seeing that Joseph had already made up his mind, Ste finally couldn’t help crying. “I thought that she was just acting spoiled to you, so I hung up the phone. I didn’t realize that I had caused trouble until I heard Gerry talk about itter! I asked Gerry to help me because I didn’t want you to misunderstand. Joseph, I really didn’t do it on purpose!”


    Hearing that, Joseph stroked Ste’s beautiful face, but his eyes were very cold. “Ste, Gerry has already paid the price for you on this matter. Let’s end it right here. I still have to go out to look for Isabe and take her back home. For the past few days, she hasn’t wanted toe back, which made me feel very nervous. I’m more nervous than I’ve ever been, and I think I might lose her because of my stupidity.”


    Ste nibbled her lips. “You merely wanted to anger me, which is not worth you doing this.”


    Joseph sighed, “I admit that I did have that sort of mentality before because I am still brooding about the failure of the contest with Kason back then. But now, it is only because I like Isabe. I want her back to me, marry me, and live with me for the rest of my life. Everyone at the Wilson Manor was so happy because of her, and I want to go on living that way.”


    Ste was shocked. “Do you really like her? But it’s been only one month since you met her, right?”


    “That’s right.” Joseph nodded. “I have known her for only a month, but I have never been so happy and rxed for the past thirty years in my life.”


    Ste looked at Joseph’s serious face and was slightly stunned. Then she lowered her head, and her hand slowly slid down from Joseph’s sleeve. “Got it. Joseph, you can go.”


    Joseph turned to leave.


    “I won’t go to the UK...”


    Joseph had already walked to the door. Ste suddenly shouted, “Joseph, let me stay and witness your happiness, will you?”


    Joseph pursed his lips. “Thanks. I’ll send you the wedding invitation.”


    The door was closed. Ste sat on the bed, with her eyes empty.


    Sylvia Allen, the agent who was taking care of Ste, walked in. Seeing Ste like this, Sylvia asked with concern, “Sunny, are you alright?”


    Ste’s lips trembled. She said hoarsely, “Sylvia, Joseph doesn’t like me anymore. He said he fell in love with another woman.”


    Sylvia thought for a moment and asked, “Is it that Isabe beside him?”


    Ste didn’t answer. She thought for a moment and said, “Because of this woman, Joseph didn’t even keep Gerry, who had served him for seven years... Sylvia, Joseph once said that he would love me for eternity. However, he has changed.”


    Sylvia thought about it and said, “Sunny, don’t worry too much. In my opinion, Joseph still values you more. Look, no matter what you do, he always puts you first. Compared to his so-called girlfriend, he is gentler and more considerate to you. Therefore, don’t be too anxious. Joseph is still brooding over the matter of your leaving back then.”


    Ste moved her lips as if she wanted to say something, but she did not speak out. Instead, she said, “Sylvia, you have wine in your bag, don’t you? Give it to me, I want to take a sip.”


    Sylvia immediately said, “That won’t do. You can’t...”


    “Sylvia!” Ste cried out as she tugged at her hair and shouted, “Give it to me now! I want to take a sip! I feel so bad!”
