Chapter 145

145 I’m Scream Now

“Yes, Mr. Joseph.”

The subordinates looked at each other. They didn’t know why the boss suddenly bought ice cream and a dress. They all wondered if the boss came to make an evaluation about the operations of these two shops.

“Wait.”

The beautiful secretary turned around and said, “Mr. Joseph, is there anything else?”

Joseph hesitated for a moment and said, “Just pick out a few more clothes and send them to the stylist with the white skirt.”

“Yes.”

“As for the plan you mentioned earlier, make a new one.”

Joseph handed the folder to the man behind him, and his tone returned to normal. “There is a 7% error in the market research data. If this happens again, you can abdicate and give up your position.”

“Yes, yes, yes!”

.....

The man wiped his sweat and thought, “God! Wasn’t boss looking at the ice cream in a daze just now? Why can he find the 7% error?’

Everyone was shocked by Joseph.

Because of Lukas’s introduction, Isabella’s interview in the afternoon was extremely smooth. The director and producer told her to wait for the start of filming.

Then, at Lukas’s suggestion, she followed everyone out for dinner.

At 9 pm, Joseph sat in the study room with a stack of documents in his hand. At the top of the documents was a photo of Lukas.

“Childhood sweetheart? A man you have loved for years? So funny.”

Joseph sneered. “Isn’t this kind of excuse for you to flirt with men?”

“Maybe not.”

“After Lukas’s car accident, Miss Isabella took care of him for more than half a year. But when he woke up, he proposed to Rosy. If they really loved each other, how could they....” Gerry respectfully stood beside him.

“Rosy is Carl’s biological daughter. What does Isabella have?”

Joseph directly pointed out the heart of the matter and said with disdain. “Lukas just wants to occupy two women at the same time. Isabella is also stupid. The man she has taken care of for more than half a year was snatched by her sister in the end. And she actually looks so happy.”

Joseph covered his forehead and said, “I really want to stuff her head into the toilet to wake her up.”

“Do I need to remind Miss Isabella about Lukas....”

“Remind her?”

Joseph was speechless. Then he said, “Isabella has feces in her head. She won’t believe it even if you clearly tell her the truth. You want to remind her?”

“Brilliant!”

Suddenly, Isabella’s scream came from upstairs.

Joseph and Gerry exchanged glances. They immediately stood up and walked out.

“So beautiful! So beautiful!”

Isabella screamed as she ran downstairs. She pulled William and spun. “William, you’re so nice! I just saw this dress this afternoon. I didn’t expect it to be in my wardrobe now!”

She wore a white pendant gauze dress and danced like an angel.

“It’s sent by the stylist.”

William smiled and said, “She said that Mr. Joseph bought it for you.”

“That’s great!”

“Grandpa, do you think I’m pretty?!” Isabella went to show it to Charlie.

“Beautiful.”

Charlie was very happy. “Like a little princess.”

“Really?”

When Isabella saw Joseph come out, she danced in front of him. She also raised her skirt and bowed towards him elegantly. “Thank you, Mr. Joseph, for your kindness. Am I particularly beautiful today?”

Joseph looked down at Isabella and said coldly, “Just so so.”

Isabella was speechless.

Although she knew that Joseph would not praise her, Isabella ignored his unpleasant comments, for she was in a good mood. She ran into the living room and danced around Charlie.

William smiled and said, “Although you have eaten outside, I wonder if you would like to have some more desserts. Mr. Joseph asked someone to deliver some ice cream today.”

“Ice cream?”

Isabella couldn’t believe that happiness would fall from the sky today!

She carried her skirt straight to the kitchen. When she passed by Joseph, she even winked at him. “Joseph, you are so cute today!”

Joseph was shocked when hearing this.

Charlie laughed.

“This is the first time I’ve heard someone say that Joseph is cute since he was three years old. He’s obviously always cold-faced and aloof. If he hadn’t been handsome like me, it would have been difficult for him to find a wife.”

Joseph was speechless again.

Isabella went to eat her ice cream in the kitchen, while Joseph returned to his study.

He picked up the remote control on the table and was about to have a video conference with the foreign persons in charge when he recalled the happy expression of Isabella. He couldn’t help but laughed.

Noises came from the door.

Someone knocked on the door and Joseph frowned. Who dared to disturb him during his working hours?

Isabella’s face stuck out of the door and she smiled. “Can I come in?”

“What are you doing?”

Although Joseph sounded indifferent, he still closed the video meeting that had just been opened.

“I’m here to give you the ice cream.”

Isabella held a tray with seven small plates on it. Each plate had a bit of ice cream, and the color was different.

“I don’t like these.” Joseph glanced at those and refused.

“Then why did you still buy them?”

“The marketing manager gave it to me for evaluation. Except here, where should I put them? In the office?”

“So it’s like this.”

Isabella scratched her head with a regretful expression, but she still carefully pushed the tray to Joseph. “But this tastes really good. It can make people feel very happy. Try it.”

Joseph looked up at Isabella.

Isabella immediately looked away. “If you eat this. perhaps you’ll be happy. You don’t have to always look like you want to kill someone.”

“Isabella, do you come here to cause trouble? Get....”

“I’m sorry! I’ll scram now!”

Isabella knew what Joseph was going to say. She immediately picked up the tray and turned around to leave.

“Wait.” Joseph said.

Isabella rolled her eyes in pain and turned around. Her smile was so terrible. “Mr. Joseph, can you just pretend that I didn’t come? I didn’t mean to disturb you, I just....”

“An ice cream can make you change your mind. You’re really easy to buy over.”

Joseph interrupted Isabella. Putting his head between his paws, he observed her. “You used to skirt me before, but today you took the initiative to please me. Isabella, why are you so bitchy? Are you kind of woman that as long as a man treats you well, you’ll want to sleep with him?”

Of course, Isabella did not know that Joseph was aiming at her because she had hung out with Lukas. “I haven’t eaten ice cream for many years. The last ice cream was bought for me before my biological father died. Thus, I feel extremely happy today. I originally thought that this feeling should be shared with all of you. It’s my fault.” She said honestly.

Isabella nodded slightly. “Sorry, I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Isabella opened the door.

“Wait.”

“Is there anything else?” Isabella was about to cry.
