Chapter 376
376 You’re So Enchanting
Isabella shivered and gave Joseph a fake punch. “Jerk!”
Joseph chortled, “Now you know...”
His warm breath blew on her cheek. Joseph let go of Isabella and frivolously touched her red face. “Jerk? Sweetie, now that I know your weakness, you are in serious trouble. In the future, you will beg me to take you. You won’t give me a break, even if I’ve worked for the whole night or am in a bad mood! Sooner or later, I will be worn out.”
Isabella covered her ears, blushing. Indeed, Joseph had found her weakness. Looking at Joseph’s smug look, she felt embarrassed. Suddenly, she jumped up onto Joseph, her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist.
“Bring it on! Let’s do it a hundred times. Both of us are new to this. Why should I be afraid of you?” Isabella challenged.
Joseph stumbled back and bumped against the wall because of Isabella’s sudden action, reflexively reaching out his hands to hold Isabella’s butt. He said in surprise, “Isabella, you surprise me. You are so enchanting...”
Before he could finish, Isabella sealed his lips with hers.
Joseph froze. He had been flirting with Isabella, but she fought back to take the lead and kissed him!
Joseph’s male ego was hurt.
.....
He couldn’t accept it!
Having been turned on, Joseph ignored the doctor’s order and sat Isabella on the shoe cabinet and lifted her dress. “Sweetie, I’m gonna show you how strong I am!”
There was a knock on the door.
William said, “Mr. Joseph, you said you wanted a video meeting with the office at 8:30. Just now, Hank called to say that everyone had been waiting for 20 minutes.”
“Tell them to wait for another two hours. Wait, tell them the meeting is canceled...”
Joseph moved his hands down from Isabella’s waist and was about to do something in response to Isabella’s challenge. However, Isabella suddenly let go of him and retreated with a frown. “No, I’m sorry. Joseph, I don’t want it today.”
Joseph was stupefied.
“You barely touched me, but it already hurt so much that I almost cried.”
Isabella said pitifully, “I shouldn’t have turned you on just now. You should go to work.”
Joseph was upset instantly. “Isabella, how can you do this? Do you have any sense of responsibility? You made a move first, but now you’re telling me that you don’t want it? Are you trying to torture me?”
Joseph did not go on to take Isabella despite what he said.
Isabella looked at Joseph’s dark face, hesitated for a while, and then wrapped her legs around his waist again, looking grave. “Fine, darling, for you, I can take the pain. I promise you I won’t cry. Go ahead. Ignore my feelings and enjoy yourself.”
Joseph remained silent.
“Come on, darling! I’m ready to put up with anything. I love you!” Isabella shouted.
Joseph let out a roar sullenly.
He pushed Isabella away and rushed to the bathroom. “I hate you, Isabella! You did it on purpose!”
Isabella looked at Joseph from behind and laughed. “You shouldn’t have nibbled my ears or messed with me. You deserve it.”
Then, Joseph went to work with an irritable look.
Joseph was gentle most of the time. Since Doctor Morris said Isabella couldn’t take any more today and Isabella was not feeling well, Joseph sure wouldn’t touch Isabella no matter how much he wanted it.
So, he could only burn his excessive energy at work.
Isabella lay on the bed and used the password she had just got to unlock Joseph’s tablet, reading the news.
It felt different after their relationship became official. Whatever that belonged to him also belonged to her, and vice versa. A couple shared everything.
Isabella figured she should get a few valuable accessories from Joseph and put them on to dazzle David.
Isabella clicked the webpage and found the “video” of Lukas and Miles made all the headlines as expected.
If it were three days ago, their behavior might have been forgivable, because both of them had been unmarried at that time. Lukas would have been criticized for cheating on his girlfriend, but after six months when things started to quiet down, he could come back again.
However, Lukas slept with Miles right after he married Rosy. That was a different matter.
Lukas was condemned for having an affair, while Miles was condemned for seducing a married man.
Such reputations could ruin the future of celebrities.
Isabella watched the video widely spread online. Although the key parts had been mosaiced, Lukas’s rude movements and Miles’s excited look could still be seen in the video.
Lukas’s sweet gentle image and Miles’s innocent image were completely ruined.
At the thought, Isabella fell into a trance. If it wasn’t for Joseph and Cedric who saved her, she might have been the woman in the video. She wondered how her life would have turned out to be in that case.
Isabella bit her lips in lingering fear.
She shook the thought out of her head and continued to read the webpage. Sure enough, the movie “Meet You, Love You”, which claimed to be about innocent youth, was harshly condemned before it was released.
“Netizen A: I used to look forward to the movie, thinking that it would remind me of the innocent love on campus, but now, I find it disgusting.”
“Netizens B: I can’t believe this guy had an affair only two days after he got married. He’s sick.”
“Netizens C: Miles seduced my idol! Bitch!”
Isabella sighed. It was her first movie. Although she only played an insignificant character, at least it was a chance to show her face on the screen. Sadly, it was ruined by those two people.
Isabella continued reading the webpage, which was filled with comments condemning and mocking Lukas and Miles. Isabella felt upset and was about to turn off the computer.
But then, something struck her, and she clicked the webpage again.
She searched “Joseph”.
Isabella raised an eyebrow as she saw the search results. It was the news about Joseph attending various events as the CEO of the Global Group. Some articles had photos, which were all taken from far away and blurry. Joseph’s page on Wikipedia only had one sentence about his personal introduction:
The eldest grandson of Charlie Wilson the founder of the Wilson Consortium, the CEO of the Global Group.
