424 Refuse to Tell Her the Truth


    Half an hourter, Gerry and Isabe bought some medicinal wine for Jane and sent her back to her small apartment. Jane hung on Gerry’s back, looking rather weak.


    Isabe quickly took out the medicinal wine when seeing Jane’s weak face. She said with heartache, “Jane, does it still hurt now? I’ll wipe the medicinal wine for you. Hold on and you’ll be fine soon.”


    Jane opened one of her eyes and saw that only the two of them were left in the room. She said angrily, “Isabe, you idiot!”


    Isabe hung her head and said guiltily, “I’m sorry. It was my fault today. I didn’t expect Cedric to...”


    “I’m not talking about that! Hurry up and get that hot guy Gerry to help me with the medical wine!”


    Jane beamed with joy, “Can’t you see that I’m pretending to be in pain? I feel ufortable on my hands, not my feet. I want him to carry me on his back because I am interested in him. Come on! You idiot!”


    Isabe did not react to this sudden change. “Are you really interested in Gerry? But you said that you are interested in Jayden!”


    Jane pped Isabe’s head with her hands, very flexible. “When I face a fool thing who has to go Dutch with me before having sex and a hero who can fight and help me with my injuries, of course I choose thetter one! Quickly let him in! If you stop me from getting my future boyfriend, I’ll get mad!”


    Isabe hurriedly said, “I see! I will immediately let Gerry in!”


    .....


    ...


    After a long time, Isabe finally took in Gerry, a silly man, and he helped Jane with the medical wine After doing this for more than an hour, during which Jane often let out sweet and embarrassing howls, Gerry finally came out of Jane’s room with a red face. He reported, “I have done it, Ms. Isabe...”


    After a pause, he added, “Actually, I don’t think your friend needs her joints on the shoulders to be treated, but her head.”


    ...


    “So we shouldn’t try to argue with a fool like her. From tomorrow onwards, I hope that you cane over to help Jane, who is inconvenient to move around. This way, you’re helping me.” Isabe patted Gerry.


    ...


    Jane immediately gave Isabe a meaningful thumbs up from afar.


    ...


    Although Isabe felt guilty for causing Jane’s injuries, she was happy that nothing serious happened. Jane seemed to have returned to normal. Moreover, she could even happily teas Gerry. Isabe felt much better to see this.


    But Gerry might have suffered a little...


    What made Isabe the most ufortable was how to face Joseph tonight.


    At 10 p.m...


    Half an hour after Isabe returned to the Wilson Manor, Joseph also returned.


    Unexpectedly, Joseph came back a littleter than she did.


    “I brought back a delicious snack for you.”


    Joseph entered and saw Isabe waiting for her at the door. He felt warm. He hugged her and stuffed the beautiful snack box into her arms. He said warmly, “Will my sweet little wife wait for me at the door every time Ie back from work?”


    Isabe immediately nodded seriously. “I will.”


    Joseph smiled. “I heard that you just came back. Have you had fun?”


    As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Gerry beside him and instantly frowned. “Gerry, why are you injured?”


    Isabe was stunned. Seeing that Gerry was about to speak, she was afraid that Gerry would tell Joseph everything. So she immediately interrupted, “It’s Jane. When we were eating outside, we had some confrontations with someone. Jane was impulsive and fought with that person. Fortunately, Gerry...”


    Joseph immediately looked at Isabe with concern. “Are you okay? Why do bad things always happen when you go out? Just stay at home in the future!”


    Isabe smiled and said thoughtfully, “Did the business go well tonight? You came back sote. Usually it is because of business.”


    “We also had dinner and drank.”


    Joseph also smiled. “After that, I especially went around Peace City to buy you this snack. I heard from the girls in thepany that this was gorgeous. So I bought one for you to try. I know that as long as there is something delicious, you will feel happy.”


    Isabe looked at the beautiful box in her hand and smiled, but she couldn’t make a real smile.


    Joseph didn’t tell the truth at all. Moreover, he didn’t hesitate or pause when he said that.


    Joseph went upstairs to his room, got changed, and took a shower in the bathroom as usual.


    Isabe changed into her pajamas and sat on the bed. She held the magazine in her hand, her eyes wide open and in a daze.


    Should she ask Joseph herself? But if she did, he would know that she had secretly met Cedric. Then things might be...


    A sound came.


    The bathroom door opened. Joseph walked out with arge towel covering his wet hair. When he saw Isabe in a daze, he waved his hand in front of her eyes. He smiled and said, “What are you thinking about, sweetie?”


    Isabe snapped back to reality. “Oh, about the engagement party.”


    After a pause, she said, “Tell me how you dealt with that cunning old thing from the business world today. I want to hear about your heroic deeds.”


    Joseph said directly, “It’s all about business. I’m afraid you won’t understand even if I tell you. But I can tell you what delicious food I ate tonight and make you drool.”


    Isabe watched as Joseph described his story vividly. He showed nothing strange. She gently held his hand and said in a trembling voice, “Joseph...”


    Joseph was stunned. “What’s wrong?”


    “Joseph, I want to discuss something with you.”


    “Yes, go ahead.”


    “There are many things I know little about, such as the field you set foot in, and the things you do with others... But I still hope that you can tell me about them. I’m not as stupid or unreasonable as you think. I won’t criticize your ns or ideas, so can ... can you...”


    Isabe bit her lip. “So from now on, can you stop being perfunctory about what you have done to me?”


    Joseph paused and smiled as he patted Isabe’s head. He teased, “What do you mean? Do you want to learn how to do business from me?”


    Isabe’s eyes flickered. “Not really...”


    “After we get married, I’ll gradually teach you what you want to know.” Joseph lowered his head and kissed Isabe on the forehead. He said affectionately, “You have to be busy with the engagement party or something these days. But you don’t have to work so hard. Some things should be shouldered by men.”


    Isabe thought for a moment and suddenly hugged Joseph’s waist. “Honey, let’s give each other a chance to forgive each other. No matter what bad things happen in the future, give each other a chance to get back together, okay?”
