Burning Love Cute Husband and His Little Wife

Chapter 27

27 What a Penny Pincher He Was!

The school bell rang.

Jane angrily rolled up her sleeves, “Damn. I have to reason things out with him. Why is this guy this heartless? If it weren’t for you, he wouldn’t have become a superstar and got his parents’ business back. If it weren’t for you, he might still be an incapable patient.”

“Jane!”

Jane is being impulsive and Isabella immediately pulled her back, her eyes moist. “Love is not repaying kindness, is it? I like him, but he doesn’t like me. Sometimes, things just don’t work out.”

Jane looked at Isabella for a while, then turned around and gently hugged her, “Isabella, don’t be sad. You will definitely meet someone who loves you. You will definitely have a happy life!”

“Thank you, Jane.”

Isabella raised her head and let her tears flow back. She joked, “Fortunately, you and David are be with me for so many years, so please forget about the handsome guys in the future. Let me be the only one in your eyes!”

“Come on! If I can’t see handsome guys, you might as well kill me!”

Jane wiped away her tears and pulled up Isabella’s hand. “Out with the old! Don’t think of all this mess. Let’s go. I’ll accompany you to pay the registration fee for the Art Competition first!”

.....

“This afternoon?” Isabella paused.

“The notice says that the deadline is 4:00 p.m. It’s already past 3:00 p.m. Hurry up!”

“God. I don’t have that much money with me.”

Isabella took out her wallet. There were only less than 200 in it.

“You are an adult. You don’t even have 200 in your pocket?”

Jane said with resignation, “Never mind. I’ll lend you the money. Don’t miss it. Hurry up!”

As the two spoke, they went to the school propaganda department.

Just as they turned the corner of the building, they saw a few black-clothed men with headphones on their ears and sunglasses crowding out of the administration building.

The headmaster, vice-headmaster, secretary, and even the school director followed behind, bowed their heads and said something.

However, when Isabella saw the handsome and arrogant man with narrow long eyes in the middle of the crowd, she immediately felt upset.

It was really a small world.

She had just stayed away from Joseph for two hours when she saw him again.

Why hadn’t she noticed that this big cheese had such a close relationship with this little school of theirs before?

“What happened over there?” Jane tilted her feet and said, “It seems that someone important has come.”

“Jane, you can go back. I have something else to do.”

When Isabella saw Joseph in the crowd, she suddenly had an idea and a smirk appeared on her face.

“What’s more important than paying your registration fee? Hey! Wait!”

“Don’t worry, Jane. I’ll pay it now!” Isabella didn’t even turn around and ran away in a flash...

The black limousine was driven from the school administration building and passed the deserted woods in front of the lake.

A figure rushed out and suddenly blocked the way.

The car stopped abruptly, leaving a long mark on the ground.

Joseph coughed.

Joseph was leisurely smoking a cigar in the back seat just now. Because of the sudden braking, he coughed and said angrily, “Gerry, do you know how to drive?”

“Sorry, Mr. Joseph, it’s Miss Isabella...”

“Miss Isabella...”

Joseph frowned and glanced out of the car window. He saw Isabella standing outside and smiling at him.

He opened the window and said bluntly, “You! If you want to die, jump into the lake over there. Or hang yourself from a tree. Don’t bother me!”

Sure enough, don’t look for musk in dog’s kennel.

Everyone said that the face was the index of the mind. Why was this wicked man so handsome and good-looking?

If it weren’t for his handsome face, she wouldn’t have been defeated twice by him...

Isabella cursed him inwardly, but she sounded sincere, “Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Joseph. Actually, I don’t want to die yet. I just came to ask you for something.”

“Ask me for something?” Joseph raised his eyebrows in confusion, “What is it?”

“I came to university from the Wilson Manor by bus. Can you pay the fare back to me now? I need the money.”

Joseph said, “By bus?”

“That’s right, by bus.”

Isabella worn a fawning smile, “You refused to have someone drive me to university, so I could only take the bus by myself. However, for me, this money was spent because I helped you act.”

Isabella glanced at Joseph’s expression and made sure that he was in a relatively stable mood. “In short, you have the obligation to reimburse me for this fare,” she said straightforwardly.

After Joseph heard this, his pitch-black eyes swept Isabella up and down with a trace of disdain. Then, he took out his wallet and said disdainfully, “How much is it?”

“Not much, only 100.”

When Isabella heard that he didn’t say no, she stretched out a finger and smiled happily.

“You blocked the way just for a hundred?”

Joseph unhappily took out a hundred and threw it at Isabella, “Isabella, are you crazy for money?”

“Not quite.”

Isabella happily took over the money and immediately took a step back. “If there’s nothing else, I won’t disturb you, Mr. Joseph. Goodbye!”

As she spoke, she turned around.

“Wait!”

Isabella froze, “Is there anything else, Mr. Joseph?”

“Do you think I’m stupid?”

Joseph always looked arrogant and patronizing. At this moment, his slightly evil amber eyes carried a hint of anger, sending chills down one’s spine.

Isabella did not know what she had said wrong, so she carefully asked, “What’s wrong?”

“It costs one per bus ride. You took the bus twice a day, and it’s only 60 a month. I am a generous man. I’ll give you 80, but you have to give me at least 20 back!”

Joseph said angrily, “You want to leave like this?”

Damn, he was the president of the Global Group and the successor of the Wilson Consortium. He owned hundreds of billions and had a powerful influence on Peace City. And now he was haggling over 20 with a poor little girl?

He even said that he was generous. Then, what was he going to do if he wasn’t generous? What a penny pincher he was!

Isabella cursed Joseph from head to toe inwardly, then suppressed her depression. She took out her wallet and smiled brightly, “Sorry, it’s my fault. I forgot about this. Don’t worry. I’ll give you change now.”

As she spoke, she opened his wallet.

Then her expression suddenly froze.

“What’s wrong? What the hell happened to you?”

Joseph looked at Isabella and said testily, “Don’t tell me you don’t have the money. You want to take advantage of me? No way!”

“I have change, but it’s not enough!”

Isabella showed the wallet to Joseph and said honestly, “Look, there are only eight left in change. Shall I give it to you later?”

Joseph looked at Isabella’s thin and cheap wallet and fixed his eyes on the only one hundred. He frowned and said, “Scram.”

Then he closed the window and left.

“You scram! Joseph, you really are a miser! You’re so mean. You must be a picky gay!”

Isabella couldn’t hold back her anger and cursed in the woods...
