Chapter 82

82 Drowning

“Ever since he became the president of the Global Group.”

Charlie smiled and said, “Anyway, Isabella, I think Joseph is like ice and you are the flame. You are born for each other.”

“Grandpa, you are really good with words.”

Isabella was aware that he wanted to say something more, but she was so smart that she didn’t go further and just followed Charlie’s words.

Curiosity was not a good thing. Maybe it was better for her not to know the ongoing things of such a big family.

Anyway, a month later, it had nothing to do with her.

“It’s true. Although Joseph seems to be independent in everything, he is amateur in going after a girl.”

Charlie helplessly waved his hands. “He doesn’t understand romance at all. A little boy can say sweeter thing than him. I’ve always been afraid that he would never find a close and loving partner.”

“But I think he’s pretty good.”

.....

Isabella raised her eyebrows. Who was rocking the party? Who almost got laid with her in the Emperor Entertainment? Who was surrounded by numbers of bikini girls on the beach?

Charlie worried this grandson would be single forever while his dear grandson had already with many women.

‘What a hypocritical man.’

“Mr. Charlie, Mr. Joseph is back.” Gerry walked over and bowed.

“Joseph is back?” Charlie was confused, “Didn’t he say that he would be busy at work today?”

“Work is pretty much done.”

Just as they were talking, Joseph walked in with good mood, “Considering that this is a rare opportunity, I decide to be with Isabella this afternoon.”

As he spoke, he looked at Isabella with gentle in his eyes.

Isabella had goose bumped all over.

“I see.”

Charlie smiled and said, “Joseph, you know how to take care of someone now. Good.”

Ever since Isabella saw Joseph appear at the door, she couldn’t help feeling disappointed....

‘Didn’t he promise to leave her alone? Why is he back? I’m having a good time without him!’

‘I don’t need this man to be around at all!’

“What’s up, Isabella? It seems that you don’t want me to be with you at all.”

Joseph took the chair beside Isabella and said with a smile, “Do you?”

“How is that possible?”

Isabella immediately changed her attitude and used her hands to cover her face with embarrassment. “It’s just embarrassing that you say such words in front of Grandpa.”

“Didn’t you send me photos to call me back? There is nothing to be ashamed of.”

However, Joseph’s expression shown that he was not friendly at all.

Isabella didn’t know why her photos could summon a devil like him, so she shrunk her neck and said, “I just keep my promise.”

In the afternoon, the two of them went swimming at the beach.

Isabella walked in front with Joseph following behind. Then, he looked at Isabella’s white legs and suddenly felt annoyed...

“Gerry.”

“Mr. Joseph, what can I do for you?”

“Clear the place where we go to later. Do you copy?”

“Yes!”

“You can let a few beauties stay.”

“Yes....”

Isabella noticed that whenever Joseph shown up, the happiness of her was took away thoroughly.

‘Is it because of Joseph’s fierce looking? He can make a noisy place silent immediately by just passing through.’

“Joseph, actually you don’t have to be here with me. I won’t complain to grandpa.” Isabella scratched her head.

“What?”

Joseph glanced at her coldly, “What did you just say?”

“I mean.... Could you let your bodyguards go away? They are scaring people.”

Isabella held her raft that shaped like a big yellow duck and negotiated, “No one dares to play with me anymore. What’s the point of us coming out?”

“I’m playing with you.”

Joseph was lying on the raft with a glass of red wine in his hand, leisurely passing by.

...

‘Hey! Joseph, it seems that you are waiting for someone to serve you instead of playing with me.’

“Why are you still wearing sun-protective clothing in the sea?” Joseph seemed that he was just asking a casual question.

Isabella paused, “I’m afraid of suntan.”

Joseph said, “Actually, those scars aren’t that ugly. There’s no need to be ashamed. Come on, take it off and show me the bikini I bought.”

“I’m not ashamed!” Isabella’s face flushed and she immediately paddled away.

“Don’t go.”

Joseph grabbed Isabella’s collar and said with a wicked smile, “Would you pull my raft and drag me forward?”

“Why would I?”

“I’m not your slave!” Isabella shook Joseph’s hand off.

“Yes, you are indeed not my slave. You are a slave with patterns on your back.” Joseph pulled Isabella back.

“You’re the slave!”

Joseph was really nasty. He had knew what she cared about the most. Isabella struggled hard and said, “Let go of me!”

Unexpectedly, the raft was unstable on the water, and Joseph suddenly fell into the sea.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Isabella knew that she was in trouble. She was so frightened that she immediately paddled away.

“Isa.... ”

Joseph cried out in panic, “Damn woman, I can’t swim!”

“What?”

Isabella had been pleased. But when she turned around, she saw Joseph struggling. However, the raft was already far away from him. She was so scared and screamed, “Why did you go into water if you can’t swim? Gerry! Come and save your Mr. Joseph!”

At this moment, Gerry and other bodyguards were all restrained by Joseph after he commanded them to stay away. They didn’t even see what was happening here.

Moreover, they were too far away to hear Isabella’s calling for help.

“Joseph, hold your breath!”

As Isabella anxiously cried for help, she paddled towards Joseph. She approached him and grabbed his hand.

Joseph floated up, but he was unconscious.

“Joseph! Don’t scare me! Wake up!”

Isabella placed Joseph’s arm on her shoulder. Her tiny body was pressed. It was as if she was carrying Joseph, such a big man, on her back. Thanks to buoyancy.

Then she held her duck’s legs and swiftly paddled towards the shore.

“So you are a slave that enjoys carrying its master!” Joseph laughed and said.

Just as Isabella was exhausted, Joseph suddenly opened his eyes and pulled Isabella into the water.

“No!”

Isabella screamed and sank into the water with Joseph.

The water was ice-cold, something that Isabella had never experienced before.

She panicked and closed her eyes to hold her breath. Suddenly, she felt a pair of hands reaching her chest and pulling her sun-protective clothing off.

Isabella opened her eyes in surprise. The person behind her directly grabbed her face and kissed on her lips...
