Chapter 175
Ever since returning to Medo, Max had been paying close attention to Chloe’s movements.
As a result, the reply Joseph received was that Young Madam’s movements had never been updated.
She was still busy with the various big matters of the hotel, and even had never left Medo.
Joseph sat in the office and looked at the city scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window. There was a thick cloud of suspicion between his eyebrows.
Seeing that Ada’s wedding date was getting closer and closer, was she not in a hurry at all? Or had she secretly given up on Alexa and was plotting something else?
The incidents at Rose Manor and the last time Aubree was arrested, as well as the interruption in Balin City, have made Joseph, this towering and resolute man, somewhat wary of Chloe, this little woman.
To be reasonable, how could there be a man who was afraid of his wife after getting married?
At this time, the internal phone rang, and Joseph pressed the hands-free button.
“Mr. Sawle, Young Master Anderson is here to see you,” The secretary said respectfully.
“Let him in.”
As soon as Vincent entered the president’s office, he followed up with his own home. He lazily fell on the sofa, almost falling off his shoes.
“How many times do you want me to say it? You are not allowed to come to me without permission. Do you think I am as idle as you?” Joseph did not even lift his eyelids, only lowering his eyebrows to sign the document.
“Tsk tsk. Who do you think you are? Napoleon or Hitler?”
“But you don’t say. My mother watched a palace drama a while ago. I think you are indeed a little similar to Napoleon. You are both heartless pig trotters.” Vincent crossed his legs and laughed mockingly.
“If you have something to say, say it now. If you have nothing to do, get lost.” Joseph buckled up the pen and straightened his back.
“Zoey has come back, right? My mother invited you to my house for a meal.”
“I’ve been a little busy recently. If this matter with Ada is not settled, I really don’t have the mood to join a dinner party.” “Tell me, how long has it been since you last saw your godmother? My mother said she was going to cook for you as soon as she came back from overseas. You really did not give her
any face!”:
“It’s a shame that my mother still remembers what you like to eat the most. The ingredients are all prepared. If you don’t come, how disappointed will she be?” Vincent pouted.
Joseph pursed his lips and said gently, “Okay, I’ll go.”
“Hey, that’s right! Zoey will be happy to know that you are coming. Don’t think that you don’t have much popularity in your family. In our Anderson family, you are a group pet!” Seeing that he agreed, Vincent was immediately in high spirits.
Joseph suddenly remembered what happened that night in the concert hall and remembered Zoey’s excessive intimacy with him. He immediately felt both psychological and physical discomfort.
Back then, he held Zoey’s hand and walked around the park because Zoey was only ten years old at that time. She was a cute little girl, and she was the younger sister of his best brother. He regarded her
as his younger sister.
But now, although she was young, she was still an adult. She could be insensible, but he couldn’t be careless.
So he thought for a moment, and his thin lips just opened. “Zoey, she…”
At this time, a knock on the door interrupted him.
Come in
“Mr. Sawle! You asked me to investigate the relationship between the Young Madam and Jerome, I have also checked the relationship between Xavy Group and Thorp Group!” Max held the information in his hand and walked in with his signature loud voice.
Vincent blinked his phoenix eyes. “…”
Joseph almost broke the pen. His face turned dark.
Eh… Mr, Mr. Sawle, you have a guest. Then, I’ll take my leave first. You can chat…” Max smiled awkwardly and retreated step by step.
“Tsk, Fm not an outsider since I’m already here.” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Vincent smiled evilly and picked up a tangerine from the fruit plate. As he peeled it, he glanced at Joseph’s unhappy expression. “What? In the end, you are still unwilling and want to chase her back?”
“Eat your oranges. Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.” Joseph lowered his eyes, but his heart skipped a beat.
“Why shouldn’t I ask? It was me who chased after Chloe first. You and that little white face with kidney deficiency had to wait in line!” Vincent threw a piece of tangerine meat into his mouth and chewed it
hard.
“You chased her first. What’s the use of it?”
Joseph’s dark eyes flashed with a hidden desire for possessiveness. He tightened his lips and gritted his teeth. “In the end, she still married me, but she could never belong to you.”
“F*ck, why are you showing off here? You’re just a divorced man!”
Vincent really wanted to throw the orange in his hand at his face. His eyes widened. “If you have the ability to separate from Chloe, why don’t you have the ability to chase her back? What’s the use of sending Max out to investigate these broken things?”
“When you finish grinding here, she and Jerome will have a bunch of kids!”
Joseph’s heart trembled, but he still said coldly, “Who told you that I want to chase after Chloe? I checked their relationship because Chloe stole another project of mine and cooperated with Jerome. This may affect some of Sawle Group’s subsequent arrangements.”
“Hehe, okay, what you say is what you say. You are always stubborn.” Vincent sneered and threw a piece of orange peel at him.
Joseph reached out to catch it, his handsome face turned white with anger, and the orange peel was crushed.
Max, who was at the side, tried hard to hold back his laughter, and said with force, “Mr. Sawle, Young Madam and Jerome don’t seem to have any special relationship.”
“In the past three years, Young Madam has been by your side. Other than you, there is no one else in her eyes. In the past ten years, I didn’t find out anything about Young Madam and Xavy Group.”
When Joseph heard this, his face turned slightly better.
It seemed that Chloe had not been taken down by Jerome yet. It should be, it was just that boy’s wishful thinking.
But a few days ago, I found out that Director Xavier brought two unmarried sons, Patt and Jerome, to Sea Gate. They should have gone to visit Director Thorp.
Combined with the relationship between Thorp family and Xavier family… Director Xavier couldn’t have intentionally allowed his two sons to marry Thorp family, right?
Marriage?
Joseph and Vincent were both stunned!
They were of the same age and were of equal social status. They were childhood sweethearts and had a long history…
No matter how one looked at it, it was a match made in heaven, perfect and fitting!
An earth-shaking sense of crisis swept towards Joseph in an instant. It was unstoppable and unavoidable.
“It’s over.”
Vincent looked meaningfully at Joseph’s slightly red eyes and laughed frivolously, “Even if that person surnamed Xavier is in a hurry to stick to my goddess, as the saying goes, a strong woman is afraid of a pestering man.”
This Director Xavier once again lowered himself and personally went to the door to talk about marriage. The father and son had a set of combination fists. If Director Thorp pressured him again, it would be
hard to say if Chloe would agree.
A certain man’s face was cold as snow.
“Ahaha, aiya, it won’t be long before you’re going to attend your ex-wife’s wedding. Don’t you guys have a close relationship with each other?” Vincent teased him while eating the orange.
“Impossible. Chloe can’t listen to the arrangements of her family and choose a business marriage!” Joseph said in a hoarse voice.
It was even more impossible for her to like Jerome. How could a woman who lived with a lion dance with a wolf?
“Whoa! So sour!”
“Vincent!” Joseph narrowed his eyes.
“Tangerine, I said it’s so sour. Why are you in such a hurry?”
At night, Joseph followed Vincent to Anderson family as they had agreed.
Although he was already very familiar with Anderson family and had recognized Madam Anderson as his godmother since he was a child, he was not lacking in etiquette. He still prepared valuable gifts for his elders. They were all high-quality supplements that were beneficial to his body.
Madam Anderson also doted on Joseph. The table was full of good dishes. 80 percent of them were what Joseph liked to eat, and 20 percent was what Zoey liked.
“Mom, your bias is too exaggerated!”
Vincent held the fork and pouted gloomily, “The dishes I asked you to cook before I left were all ignored by you. It’s said that you forgot your mother after marrying a wife. It’s too heartbreaking for you to have
Joseph forget your own child!”
“You’ve already eaten my dishes for twenty years. Joseph doesn’t always stay by my side. Of course, I have to treat him well. You don’t have to compare this.”
“Joseph, these are all your favorites. Eat more.” Madam Anderson was very happy to see Joseph.
“Thank you, godmother.” Joseph responded with a smile and picked up his fork.
“Second brother, eat more!”
Zoey deliberately chose a seat next to Joseph and used her fork to pick up the food. “This dish and this one are personally made for you, quickly try it!”
However, her fork did not even touch Joseph’s plate before they were blocked in the air by his hands, causing her to freeze.
“Thank you, I will do it myself.”
