Chapter 1037 1037: I’d Rather Lose It
?
It could only be explained that some people want Irish to see this evidence, using Irish to bring down William.
So, Joseph began to suspect that this person was Kelly.
If so, who would her target be? Was it Irish? Or him?
He couldn't take it!
Daisy rushed into the office, "Mr. Manager, the ticket was booked."
He calmed himself down and looked at Daisy with a serious face, "I will go to Los Angeles. You stay here."
"Really?" Daisy stared at him with widened eyes, "Mr. Dover, you..."
"You mentioned that you are more familiar with the situation here than anyone else. You have also accompanied me to South Africa multiple times and have knowledge of the diamond industry. Therefore, Daisy, I need your assistance this time. Once the client arrives, I want you to handle the reception and signing tasks," Joseph stated, emphasizing the importance of Daisy's involvement in the upcoming responsibilities.
Daisy's breath began to be quick, "But if the customer insists on seeing you..."
"I'd rather lose it." Joseph's attitude was very firm.
Aware of the seriousness of the situation, Daisy knew Joseph had a reason to insist on leaving. So she took a deep breath and nodded, "Okay, I understand how to do it. You can be assured; I will be responsible for that."
Joseph raised his hand, heavily patting her shoulder, "Thank you."
Joseph turned and left, then took out his cell phone and dialed a string of numbers.
Irish couldn't be connected.
He frowned and called Leo.
He also couldn't get through.
He called Antonio again, and he got through.
"I found out that Kelly is in Los Angeles."
"Kelly's daughter, Lilith, is attending the Los Angeles Jewelry Fair, and she accompanied her daughter."
"She's still in Los Angeles?"
"Yes, she and Lilith stay in the hotel but rarely go out. It is Lilith's work to go to the fair, and she just stays in the hotel."
Joseph was alerted.
After a while, Joseph asked, "Antonio, can your associates reach the fishing village?"
Antonio felt puzzled and responded, "The fishing village? Yes, it can be done, but it will take time. However, you're aware that the Los Angeles police are closely monitoring my people. I can only access the village by boat, but we must also evade any inspections."
Antonio agreed and told him to be careful.

Fishing Village, Los Angeles.
Leo woke up early, drinking coffee on the deck outside the hotel. Behind him was a large colorful cloud stretching thousands of miles away. Irish first saw such a scene, and then Leo said hello, "So early." And then she went to see the sunrise.
"It's still early?" Leo was disgruntled and looked up at the wrist, "Sister, you are accompanying me to find the answer, not for vacation."
Irish took a glass of water and rolled her eyes, "Please, you come to look for the answer, and I, just want to take a holiday, and then I'll book a ticket to South Africa."
Suddenly a group of people kidnapped them and imprisoned them in the house.
And there was gunfire behind them.
Gunshots were getting closer and closer. In this critical moment, Joseph, with a team, arrived.
He kicked open the door, and Joseph shouted to Leo, "Take the gun."
After managing to kill some people, Leo bit his teeth and said, "Joseph, you remember, I died because of you."
Joseph carried a gun and accurately hit a mercenary who was shooting at his side, whose voice was clear, "If you die, I will avenge you."
"If you die, I will avenge you." Leo, holding a gun, coldly sneered.
Joseph's pupils shivered, and there was a haze across his eyes, "No, Leo, you promise me one thing."
"You won't let me return to Runestone Group, will you? You can't do that, if you can, get it yourself." Leo shot one again.
Joseph aimed at one of the mercenaries, accurately buttoned down, and the other side fell to the ground, he said, "You promise me first."
"Well, I promise," Leo said.
"If I die, you will not avenge me." Joseph, holding the gun, said word for word, "Take care of her for me forever."
Leo didn't expect him to say that. He was stunned for a moment. Then he said, "Joseph, it is your wife. Take care of her yourself!"
"Boom--"
Then a car ran through the woods and shouted, "Get in!"
A group of people were against the front of the mercenary, and in the safest position, it was Irish.
Joseph turned his head to Irish, shouting, "Get in the car!"
"Joseph..." Irish saw the situation more dangerous and painfully called him.
Seeing her not moving, Joseph was angry, and he roared, "Run!"
"Run!"
The word was like a bomb. Irish only felt her brain "banged", and many memories suddenly occurred to her.
Once there was a boy who said this to her, and he used his body to block those adults, shouting at her, "Run!"
In the Light Town. In that alley, the little boy under the green light...
Irish suddenly turned her head to see Joseph not far away, his face...
His face and the boy's in his memory began to overlap, and all the scenes that had happened appeared.
No...
It was not true.
No!
"Ah --"Irish suddenly bent her head and screamed in panic and despair.
"Irish!" Joseph seemed to realize something and wanted to pull her up.
But at this moment, Irish fell completely into the darkness of memory.
In front of her was the ancient town she had been to, that long lane, and the boy, she clearly said to him, "Brother, you wait for me to grow up, then I'll be your girlfriend."
No...
With a shot, Irish only felt that something suddenly exploded in front of her. The sky was bright, and the smell of blood was thick.
"Joseph..." Her voice was shaking, and she wanted to touch his face, but her pupil quickly widened, and then there was a blankness….
Everything turned dark.
****
At that time, it was very dark, she finally saw the moonlight, only to see the surroundings. It was an ancient town.
No one was left behind.
In this way, not knowing how long she waited, there was light and shadow in the long lane, and a little person was moving.
She could first see the delicate leather shoes, the boys' shoes. Then she looked up, and the child's face was shrouded in shadow. He asked her who she was, how she would appear here. She did not know how to answer, and fear was suppressed for a long time.
When she saw the boy's face clearly, she suddenly felt that she was not afraid.
"Irish!" Behind her was Joseph's anxious voice.
Irish turned around.
When she looked at Joseph's eyes, she thought about her childhood with him and their promise.
"We..." Irish opened her mouth but felt her throat dry, "We have known each other since childhood, right?"
