424 Refuse to Tell Her the Truth
Half an hour later, Gerry and Isabella bought so dicinal wine for Jane and sent her back to her small apartnt. Jane hung on Gerry’s back, looking rather weak.
Isabella quickly took out the dicinal wine when seeing Jane’s weak face. She said with heartache, “Jane, does it still hurt now? I’ll wipe the dicinal 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, “Isabella, you idiot!”
Isabella 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 with the dical wine!”
Jane bead with joy, “Can’t you see that I’m pretending to be in pain? I feel uncomfortable on my hands, not my feet. I want him to carry on his back because I am interested in him. Co on! You idiot!”
Isabella did not react to this sudden change. “Are you really interested in Gerry? But you said that you are interested in Jayden!”
Jane slapped Isabella’s head with her hands, very flexible. “When I face a fool thing who has to go Dutch with before having sex and a hero who can fight and help with my injuries, of course I choose the latter one! Quickly let him in! If you stop from getting my future boyfriend, I’ll get mad!”
Isabella hurriedly said, “I see! I will imdiately let Gerry in!”
.....
...
After a long ti, Isabella finally took in Gerry, a silly man, and he helped Jane with the dical wine After doing this for more than an hour, during which Jane often let out sweet and embarrassing howls, Gerry finally ca out of Jane’s room with a red face. He reported, “I have done it, Ms. Isabella...”
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 can co over to help Jane, who is inconvenient to move around. This way, you’re helping .” Isabella patted Gerry.
...
Jane imdiately gave Isabella a aningful thumbs up from afar.
...
Although Isabella felt guilty for causing Jane’s injuries, she was happy that nothing serious happened. Jane seed to have returned to normal. Moreover, she could even happily teas Gerry. Isabella felt much better to see this.
But Gerry might have suffered a little...
What made Isabella the most uncomfortable was how to face Joseph tonight.
At 10 p.m...
Half an hour after Isabella returned to the Wilson Manor, Joseph also returned.
Unexpectedly, Joseph ca back a little later than she did.
“I brought back a delicious snack for you.”
Joseph entered and saw Isabella 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 at the door every ti I co back from work?”
Isabella imdiately nodded seriously. “I will.”
Joseph smiled. “I heard that you just ca back. Have you had fun?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Gerry beside him and instantly frowned. “Gerry, why are you injured?”
Isabella was stunned. Seeing that Gerry was about to speak, she was afraid that Gerry would tell Joseph everything. So she imdiately interrupted, “It’s Jane. When we were eating outside, we had so confrontations with soone. Jane was impulsive and fought with that person. Fortunately, Gerry...”
Joseph imdiately looked at Isabella with concern. “Are you okay? Why do bad things always happen when you go out? Just stay at ho in the future!”
Isabella smiled and said thoughtfully, “Did the business go well tonight? You ca back so late. 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 the company that this was gorgeous. So I bought one for you to try. I know that as long as there is sothing delicious, you will feel happy.”
Isabella 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.
Isabella 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 t Cedric. Then things might be...
A sound ca.
The bathroom door opened. Joseph walked out with a large towel covering his wet hair. When he saw Isabella in a daze, he waved his hand in front of her eyes. He smiled and said, “What are you thinking about, sweetie?”
Isabella snapped back to reality. “Oh, about the engagent party.”
After a pause, she said, “Tell 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.”
Isabella 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 sothing 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 about them. I’m not as stupid or unreasonable as you think. I won’t criticize your plans or ideas, so can ... can you...”
Isabella bit her lip. “So from now on, can you stop being perfunctory about what you have done to ?”
Joseph paused and smiled as he patted Isabella’s head. He teased, “What do you an? Do you want to learn how to do business from ?”
Isabella’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 Isabella on the forehead. He said affectionately, “You have to be busy with the engagent party or sothing these days. But you don’t have to work so hard. So things should be shouldered by n.”
Isabella thought for a mont 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?”
