Burning Love Cute Husband and His Little Wife

Chapter 42

42 Be Greedy for Petty Advantages

As the music stopped amidst a series of high-pitched notes, Isabella could not react at all. When Joseph looked at her with his unfathomable eyes, she was completely obsessed with him...

“Does it sound good?”

Joseph smiled, as if he knew how charming he was when playing the piano. “It’s much better than your terrible music, right?”

“It sounds ... sounds good.”

Isabella told herself to keep calm, but she still fixed her eyes on Joseph’s charming and handsome face, so she couldn’t stop stuttering.

Joseph looked at Isabella and suddenly noticed that her face was burning.

The afternoon sunlight shone on her gorgeous hair and costumes. Her red lips and eyes were so charming.

She looked pure but alluring, causing ripples in his hearts...

“...”

.....

A sudden impulse occurred to Joseph. So he stretched out a hand and grabbed Isabella’s head to pull her closer. Isabella was completely stunned, permitting Joseph’s action.

She kept leaning down. She thought she could not control herself but fall into Joseph’s dark eyes...

They were getting closer and closer...

The auras of them surrounded each other. Joseph’s fingers tightened to pull Isabella down. Isabella pounced onto Joseph’s face, and at the same time...

Joseph screamed.

And the piano rumbled.

Amidst the chaotic rumbling of the piano, Joseph screamed miserably. Isabella was completely awake and realized that because of her movements, she had accidentally pressed down the piano lid and smashed Joseph’s left hand!

And his forehead was hurt by her teeth when she pounced on him.

“Oh my god! I’m sorry!”

“Isabella! Do you want to die?” Joseph covered his forehead.

“I didn’t do it on purpose! Joseph, are you alright? Do you need a doctor?”

The romance and obsession instantly vanished. Joseph once again became irritable, while Isabella cried with fear.

“Get out! You are so stupid! You don’t even know how to kiss! Get out!”

Joseph shouted as he covered his swollen fingers.

Obviously, three seconds later, Isabella was kicked out by the furious Joseph.

She walked to the door and smiled awkwardly at Gerry. “Joseph’s temper is quite variable.”

Gerry was expressionless, like a sculpture.

“...”

“Why are they so strange...?”

Isabella sighed and tugged at her face while leaving the lounge.

“Isabella, can you control yourself? You have to kiss someone you like, right? How can you be so crazy? Are you going to abandon yourself just because you can’t get Lukas? Although Joseph is handsome, he’s a devil. You almost fell just now!”

Isabella muttered as she turned around to leave. She had just taken two steps when she suddenly remembered something and then she stepped back.

Vice President Richard Miller hurried to the lounge with his precious daughter Doris. Doris was still tidying her skirts and hairstyle.

“Do they know Joseph?”

Isabella thought for a moment and rolled her eyes. “Like attracts like. They are all pretentious, arrogant and unreasonable.”

...

When Isabella returned to the dressing room, the people in the room were in a heated discussion.

Most people were discussing the whopping bonus, while some were speculating whether Joseph had a girlfriend.

All in all, the entire room was bustling with gossips.

Isabella was also very excited. Of course, she was excited for that one million.

No matter what, she had to get this bonus!

“Isabella, you are really a worrisome girl. It’s almost your turn for the competition but you even go out for a stroll.”

Jane walked over and looked around. Her expression suddenly became meaningful. “I just got a hearsay that Doris and some others with backgrounds are going to pull strings to join the competition.”

“Pull strings?”

“Didn’t they disdain to participate in the school’s performances? Hearing that the guests this time are big shots, they join in through the back door. Actually, the school said before that they were not allowed to sign up after the deadline. It seems that the rules are nothing more than words.”

Isabella marveled.

Isabella covered her mouth and said, “Oh, no. It’s said that Doris is from the International Dance Association. My championship is going to be...”

“She dances well, but you are still better than her. If you can afford to participate in the competition abroad, you would probably have become famous.” Jane said to comfort Isabella, “Don’t be nervous. Just perform as usual.”

“Yes, but she is the President’s daughter. Perhaps...”

Isabella remembered that Vice-President Miller had brought Doris to Joseph’s lounge. She said with some apprehension, “Actually, even if I can’t get the first place, second or third will also do. I’m not trying to compete with anyone. I just want the bonus...”

“So, don’t care about others. Just achieve our goal.”

Jane whispered, “Alright, I just heard that Doris is much worse than we imagined. If she says something to irritate you on purpose, don’t care about it. And don’t affect your performance.”

“OK.” Isabella replied.

Isabella smiled brightly. “I guarantee that no matter what she says, I will treat it as trash”

The two girls laughed heartily, but they did not notice that someone was glancing at then with a pair of beautiful yet aloof eyes from a corner not far away. “Isabella seems to be very confident and relaxed.”

“Doris, you always attend performances elsewhere. You may not know that Isabella is the ever-victorious champion of our school. When it comes to dancing, no one can match her. She is a talented dancer and she has also a lot of efforts.”

“Ever-victorious champion?”

Doris sneered. “She just has limited outlook. As I participate in this competition, there is no place for her.”

“Why does Doris care so much about this competition? Is it also because of the bonus?”

“My boyfriend can spend one million buying me a bag. Do I need to care about money?”

Doris said disdainfully, “I’m interested in the first place because Joseph will give the award. My father already said that Charlie and his handsome grandson enjoy dancing very much. If I can get Joseph’s appreciation...”

A wisp of intoxication and fantasy flashed through Doris’ eyes. “If I can date or even marry Joseph, then I...”

“Doesn’t Doris have a boyfriend? It’s Mr. Zachary...”

“Shut up! Can’t I dump him? People always struggle upwards! You can’t understand my ambition!”

The girl at the side did not dare to say anything else. Doris swept her beautiful eyes over Isabella. When she saw that Isabella was giggling and circling around on one foot like a beautiful butterfly, her eyes darkened.

Although she could also do this difficult action, it was impossible for her to do it so easily and continuously...

Isabella had never participated in an international competition. Was Isabella really better at dancing than her?

It’s impossible! She would never permit it!
