BXBX NOVEL Chapter 45
Doctor Morris said carefully, “Gerry, isn’t Miss Isabella Mr. Joseph’s girlfriend? I think they...”
Gerry said nothing.
“Listen to the voices inside. Those who don’t know think that they are committing domestic violence or murder.”
Doctor Morris wiped his sweat. “Will Mr. Joseph...”
Gerry still kept silent.
Doctor Morris finally realized that Gerry didn’t listen to him at all. He looked at Gerry’s expressionless face carefully and said awkwardly, “Alright, I won’t ask. I won’t say anything.”
...
“Your back...”
.....
Inside the lounge, Joseph was stunned after he lifted the clothes on Isabella’s back. “What happened to your back?”
On Isabella’s were dense scars.
“I was so naughty in the childhood that I fell on a glass fragment!”
Isabella roared, “Stop thinking of those useless things! Show the photos to Doctor Morris! I’m in pain!”
“OK.”
Joseph was somewhat confused by Isabella’s roar. He hurriedly stood up with his mobile phone and wanted to leave. When he almost walked to the door, he thought of something. He returned and carefully covered Isabella’s back with a thin blanket before leaving the door again...
Doctor Morris took his phone and looked at it carefully. “They are just bruises. Although each bruise is very small, she feels like being stabbed by a knife since there are too many of them. This kind of internal injury is more painful than bleeding. It will probably hurt for half an hour.”
Joseph listened in silence and took out two items from his pocket. “Take a look. Were the bruises caused by these?”
There were two items in Joseph’s hand. One was a silver ball, and the other was a small ball with four corners.
Each of the four corners protruded out, which was extremely sharp. No matter how they were placed, there would always be a corner upwards.
“Oh god.... it must be this.”
Doctor Morris was shocked. “How did she fall on this? It won’t kill her, but she must suffer a lot!”
“If there is no big problem, just give me a painkiller to relieve the pain!”
As soon as Doctor Morris finished speaking, the door to the lounge was burst open. Isabella hugged Doctor Morris’ leg and said, “It’s my turn in ten minutes. Hurry up!”
As Isabella came out in a hurry, the blanket already fell to the side, revealing some parts of her body.
Everyone outside was stunned. Joseph took off his coat in an instant and wrapped Isabella up. He said with anger, “Are you crazy? Don’t you know that you’ve sprained your foot? Join the competition? Why don’t you just go die?”
Gerry, Doctor Morris, and the bodyguards immediately turned their faces to the side.
“I’m alright if my bones were not hurt! Just give me a painkiller. I want to participate in the competition!”
Isabella grabbed Doctor Morris’ arm and said, “Doctor, please!”
“Why do you insist in participating in this damn competition?”
Joseph angrily pulled off Isabella’s from Doctor Morris’ body and carried her into the room.
Just as he was about to throw her onto the bed, he changed his mind and put her gently on the bed.
“You think it’s not important, but it means a lot to me!”
Isabella pulled Joseph’s clothes and pleaded, “Joseph, Mr. Joseph, please do me a favor and let Doctor Morris give me a painkiller. Please!”
She would have no opportunity if she lost this one.
Perhaps this was the only competition in her lifetime whose bonus was so high, but the registration fee was so low!
“Meaning?”
Joseph immediately understood Isabella’s thoughts. “What’s the point? The bonus?”
Then, he took out a check folder and wrote down a string of numbers. He tore it off and threw it to Isabella. He said arrogantly, “This is one million. Just stay here.”
The light check slowly landed in front of Isabella. She looked at Joseph with her eyes flickering. She calmed down.
Joseph sat beside her and bent down to look at her. “Isabella, are you satisfied now? If you want money, just tell me. I’m not stingy. It’s easy to get money from me.”
Isabella rolled her eyes. “Do you really give me the money like this?”
“Of course...”
Seeing Isabella’s beautiful face, which had turned red with excitement, Joseph suddenly paused.
She was wearing exquisite makeup today. It made her beautiful, charming, and also very attractive.
Joseph thought for a moment and leaned his hands on both sides of Isabella’s head. He looked down at her. “Well, Isabella, if you want money, I will give you a lot. As long as you sleep with me for once, I will.... Isabella! You damn girl!”
Before Joseph could finish his words, his hair and ear were pulled up by Isabella. She shouted, “I knew there was no free lunch in the world! I knew that only by dancing can I get one million at ease! Joseph! You are a pervert. You just know how to take advantage of others’ perilous state!”
Five minutes later, Joseph returned to the spectator seat with a dark face while rubbing his ears.
Charlie said with a smile, “Joseph, why did you go out for so long? It’s Isabella’s turn soon. What if you miss out?”
“I just got a call from the company.”
Joseph put down his hand and said respectfully, “But don’t worry, grandpa. No matter what, I won’t Isabella’s performance.”
Charlie nodded his head in satisfaction. He said earnestly, “Although work is important, as a man, you should also pay attention to your family. Only when your family life is harmonious, can you develop your career outside. As an old saying goes, how can a man conquer the world without taking good care of his family? That’s what I mean.”
Joseph immediately lowered his head and said, “You are right.”
“Why is your ear so red?”
” ... I was bitten by a mosquito and I rubbed it.”
“Alright. Continue to watch the show.”
...
Isabella’s struggle was paid off. Although Joseph had almost threw her out of the window since she bit and scratched him, he finally allowed Doctor Morris to give her an analgesic injection.
However, she knew that if she hadn’t been injured, she might have been beaten by Joseph.
If she recovered, would Joseph revenge on her or even beat her since he was so stingy?
It didn’t matter. As long as she had one million, even Carl couldn’t control her anymore, let alone Joseph....
She would immediately buy a house in another city, and then bring her mother away with her.
In short, she would leave far away from the Smiths, the Wilsons, and the Peace City for the sake of her life.
The host began to announce on the stage. Isabella pressed her right ankle, which had been injected with analgesic needles and tied tight. She was sure that she could withstand it. Then she stood up and walked out.
Not far away, Doris was also preparing backstage. Seeing Isabella, she frowned. “What’s wrong? Her legs were hurt, but why can she act like nothing happened?”
Audience applauded below the stage. Isabella appeared on the stage in a classic dress with golden string and a defined waist. She was dignified and beautiful. And her charming eyes were very attractive.
Charlie was so excited that he kept applauding. “Look at this outfit. It’s undoubtedly ‘The Beauty Worshipping the Moon’. Good girl. She chose a perfect music.”
