22 Being Inexplicably Accused
Joseph looked at Isabella, his eyes sliding from her exquisite and slightly exposed collarbone to her round and plump chest, and finally to her slender waist...
Then he suddenly felt his lower abdomen heat up and something scratched his heart strangely.
“He’s already entered the gate. He’ll arrive in ten minutes.”
Joseph frowned and sensed the heat in his body. He hurriedly turned around and said, “I’ll go to the bathroom first.”
Isabella nodded, “What kind of courtyard takes ten minutes from the door to the door? Could it be that rich people are afraid of danger, so they have to go through a lot of security?”
With that in mind, she took a step forward and looked at the courtyard...
What the hell was this boundless green?
Was this a courtyard in front of her?
Were they sure it was not a plant exhibition park?
.....
She coughed.
Isabella retracted her widened eyes, cleared her throat, and asked the poker-faced man standing at the door, “Hey, bro, how big is the yard of the Wilson’s? Aren’t you tired from walking around?”
“This is the Wilson Manor, including the front courtyard, backyard, viewing platform and zoo, covering almost half of the southern suburb.”
The poker-faced guard replied cleanly, “So if you need to go out, you need to tell the housekeeper or servant first. People here usually pass the courtyard by sightseeing bus.”
Alright, there was actually such an amazing area as a zoo...
She finally understood as a wealthy man why Carl still uses her to curry favor with the members of the 10 billion clubs.
Compared to these people, Carl was a nouveau riche, a bumpkin who had never seen the world before!
However, rich people were tired. They even went back home so dramatic. No wonder Joseph was such a bastard...
“Your expression tells me that you’re cursing someone.”
Joseph returned. He leaned against the door and looked at Isabella with a hostile look.
“How is that possible?”
Isabella was shocked and immediately smiled. “I’m just surprised that your courtyard is so spectacular. How much does it cost! If you don’t believe me, ask him! We were just chatting!”
Joseph frowned slightly, “Gerry, did you just chat with her?”
“No, I just answered Miss Isabella’s question.” The guard replied calmly.
“Well.”
Joseph snorted in disdain, “It seemed that you’re really confident with your charm, carrying on with my subordinates? Let me tell you, Gerry won’t fall for your tricks!”
“Which of your eyes saw me seduce your subordinates?” Isabella was inexplicably accused and was somewhat angry.
“You’d better not.”
“If you dare to carry on with other men during this period, just wait to be thrown to the bottom of the lake.” Joseph said with a gloomy face.
“We’re not real couple.” Isabella suddenly felt cold as she said weakly, “Who cares about your thought?”
“You have to be professional. My conditions have been stated. You must follow my plans.”
Joseph sneered, “Or are you unable to endure a month of loneliness? Do you still want to continue hanging out with other men?”
“Joseph, you scum! Why are you humiliating me?”
“Who are you calling scum?”
When Joseph saw that Isabella retorted him, he couldn’t help but be angry. He went up and grabbed Isabella’s wrist, “Are you...”
Before he finished speaking, Isabella suddenly found that Joseph’s expression changed completely.
Then she was dragged into his arms and he said gently, “Bad girl, don’t lose your temper all the time!”
Isabella felt goose bumps all over her body. At the same time, she saw a walking stick landing beside her feet.
“Grandfather!”
Isabella instantly understood what was happening now. She immediately switched to acting mode and pushed Joseph away. She blushed and said, “You’re back.”
Charlie laughed.
Charlie saw the interaction between them just now and smiled. “You two are really sweet. It seems that I don’t come back at the proper time.”
“No.” Isabella said shyly, “Joseph is always so shameless.”
“Isn’t it because you’re naughty, bad girl?”
Joseph looked at Isabella with a vicious threat in his eyes. “Next time if you lose your temper, I’ll hug you so hard that you won’t be able to breathe.”
Isabella almost wanted to retch.
“Your eyebrows hide a delicate aura, and your voice is gentle and smiling.” Charlie looked at Isabella from top to bottom, “You’re really beautiful today, Isabella.”
“Thank you, Grandpa.” Isabella replied with a smile, “Grandpa likes opera?”
“Well, you know it?”
“This is the description from the opera ‘A Dream of Red Mansions’. Thank you for your praise.”
Charlie’s eyes flashed with astonishment, “I didn’t expect that you would like this kind of thing at such a young age. You’re knowledgeable.”
“Grandpa is overpraising me. My mother used to like opera, so I have an impression.”
Isabella said sweetly, “Grandpa is a true expert. You must know much about the ancient culture.”
“Well, it’s so nice of you.” Charlie laughed, “How do you know that?”
“There are three reasons. First, the Wilson Manor is luxuriously decorated, but it is still dominated by gardens. The ancient charm still exists. Second, there are many paintings and calligraphy works in the house. Those works are vigorous and powerful. It can be seen that you’ve been practiced for many years. As for the third... it is also the most important...”
“What?” Charlie’s interest was thoroughly aroused and he immediately asked.
Even Joseph looked at Isabella curiously.
“Joseph’s name.”
Isabella covered her mouth and laughed, “Joseph is from the Bible. It means that his character is noble and decent. In other words, grandfather hopes that Joseph will be an educated and decent person!”
Charlie clapped.
Charlie couldn’t help but praise, “Isabella, you really made grandfather look at you differently. I was afraid that Joseph would find an eye candy. I didn’t expect...”
Joseph’s eyes were full of affection as he looked at Isabella smiling sweetly. He did not realize that he put on a faint smile unconsciously...
Charlie nodded in satisfaction and then looked at Joseph. “Joseph, Isabella is a good girl. Do you know that? Let me tell you, if you dare to bully her, I’ll break your leg!”
Joseph smiled and said, “Grandpa, you’re overthinking it. I love her so much, so why would I bully her?”
Isabella rolled her eyes 360 degrees behind Charlie.
Joseph raised his eyebrows and gave her a fierce warning look.
“You’d better not. Isabella, this is the first time we have met. Grandpa should have given you a greeting gift.”
Charlie pulled Isabella to sit on the sofa. “But I don’t know what you young people like, so I just prepare this.”
As he spoke, he signaled for an old waiter to pass an envelope to Isabella.
