Chapter 378



Isabella felt the softness of the big bed, listened to Joseph’s bath, and then looked at the pillow next to her head that was exactly the same as hers. Happiness filled her.

From today onwards, Isabella and Joseph would become husband and wife. From then on, they would depend on each other and support each other. This feeling was really good.

Although Joseph had a big temper, it was good that Isabella was no longer afraid of him. Instead, she felt that he was quite cute when he was angry.

...

Isabella rolled around happily on the big bed.

Joseph just happened to come out after the shower. Seeing Isabella rolling around like a bug, he could not help but laugh. “Stop, naughty girl. Hand over the green box over there. I’ll apply some ointment for you. You scratched your collarbone.”

Isabella passed the ointment to Joseph and thought for a moment. “I just saw the news about Lukas and Miles online. They can’t develop in this circle anymore.”

Joseph sat by the bed and threw away the wet towel that was used to wipe his hair. Then, he unbuttoned Isabella’s pajamas and said lightly, “I know.”

.....

Isabella moved over and lay on Joseph’s thigh before looking up at him. “Joseph, I remember that Lukas broke his fingers so as not to touch me. He is innocent...”

Joseph instantly recalled the scene of Lukas sitting in the corner with his upper body bare in the messy room. He fell silent.

If Joseph and Cedric hadn’t rushed over after receiving the call or Isabella hadn’t bitten Lukas until he was covered in blood due to excessive excitement, would Lukas have followed his desire and slept with Isabella?

As Isabella’s brother-in-law, Lukas, who had just married, would just be condemned for having affair with his sister-in-law. But what destructive damage would it cause to Isabella’s innocent life?

“Since we have decided to get married, we are the closest people. So, I will respect your opinion.”

Joseph revealed Isabella’s chest and gently applied the cold green ointment to her scratches. She finally said in a low voice, “The Global Group has completely taken up the Shaw Company. In fact, Lukas is just my puppet. Since you plead mercy for Lukas, I will pay a little more attention to him and give him more room for development. As for his reputation in the entertainment circle...I warned him not to have any contact with you, but he took you out to participate in the banquet and was not on guard against his own actions. He deserves the lesson.”

When Isabella sensed that Joseph’s air suddenly turned cold, she knew that he would not compromise on this matter. She realized that he was patient enough to give her such a calm explanation. Thus, she crawled behind Joseph. “Darling, let me help you dry your hair.”

“Okay.”

Isabella knelt on her knees and leaned against Joseph’s broad back. She turned on the hairdryer and gently scratched his scalp. His hair was black and bright. There was the scent of shampoo on his body and a faint smell of tobacco. It was a very reassuring smell.

The low hum of the hairdryer rang out from the room, and the air was slightly erotic.

Joseph suddenly reached out to hold Isabella’s hand. “Are you angry?”

Isabella was stunned and turned off the hairdryer. “What?”

“Well, it’s better for me to explain more clearly. I am not willing to help Lukas suppress this matter, because...”

Isabella suddenly covered Joseph’s mouth. “Don’t explain. I’m not angry at all.”

Joseph looked at Isabella in surprise.

“I believe that you have your own considerations, and you must have taken me into account.”

Isabella said seriously, “We have different thinking. I feel that in terms of major matters, you are much smarter than me. Since we are a family, I will support everything you do.”

Joseph found Isabella blushing. The feeling of being relied on and trusted cheered him up. Joseph leaned over and teased Isabella, “Isabella, I didn’t expect you to be so reasonable. I thought you were going to make a scene for your childhood sweetheart.”

Isabella wrinkled her nose. “I’m not as unreasonable as you think. You have drawn a clear line between you and Stella. Then I will follow suit. Lukas will only be my alumnus and my friend. He is nothing more...”

Isabella rested happily against Joseph’s arms. “Darling, I only need you.”

Joseph listened to Isabella’s soft and straightforward confession of love and was very moved. He couldn’t help but bent to kiss Isabella’s lips. Isabella was extending her head in response when she suddenly remembered something. “Wait! I have something very important to tell you now.”

Joseph paused and said gently, “Alright, go ahead.”

Isabella frowned. “Can you help me get my mother out of the Smith’s? Carl often hit my mother. I couldn’t tell you before because you didn’t like me. I had no right to ask you anything. Now that we are going to be a family, I don’t need to worry about anything.”

Joseph frowned. “Carl often hit your mother?”

“Yes. Not long after my mother married Carl, she found out that although he looked modest, he had a bad temper. He insulted her at first. Then he punched and kicked her...” Isabella nodded sadly.

Joseph paused and then touched Isabella’s face. “That’s not a problem. you’re a silly girl. Even if I didn’t like you before, I wouldn’t have left you in the lurch if you asked for my help.”

Isabella shook her head seriously. “One can’t owe others favors. If he does, he has to find a way to repay them.”

Joseph smiled. “You can threaten me by using my grandpa. I thought you were intelligent.”

“But that will only work for a month at most...”

Isabella explained seriously, “If my mother and I want to get rid of the Smith family, we have to find a place that Carl will never find or a place that he doesn’t dare to approach. When my back was cut by glass and I almost died, my mother secretly took me to a rented house in the suburbs of Peace City. Later, one day, the landlord suddenly seemed to have changed into a different person and drove us out. No one in the vicinity rented us a house and they all said that they didn’t want to.”

Joseph’s face darkened. “It’s obvious that Carl was behind it. He deliberately made things difficult for you and made you unable to leave him.”

Isabella nodded. “But my mother and I didn’t know that Carl was so bad at that time. It was raining that night when we were driven out of the rented house. My mother was pregnant with John and carried me on her back. We went to many places. When we went to small inns, the owners said that all rooms were occupied. No one was willing to rent a house to us. In short, we were completely desperate.”
