Chapter 373

373 Strange Welcome Party

Isabella fell silent. “When you coaxed Stella into bed, did you suddenly become gentle and patient like now?”

“Jane is right. Men are all like this. When they coax women into bed, they instantly become Mr. Good. You are also a man, and you are no exception.”

Joseph was stunned. “When I was with Stella...”

“Forget it...”

“How could I interfere with your past? You can only treat me well from now on. Let’s not talk about this anymore. Go home.” Isabella scratched her head.

Joseph grabbed Isabella’s wrist. “Wait, you have to tell me clearly when Stella and I...”

Isabella frowned. “Joseph, don’t go too far. Stella has already told me that you two used to be together every day. You...”

“Stella and I didn’t do anything.”

Joseph looked at Isabella in a daze. “Being together doesn’t mean we were doing it. If your intelligence can be synchronized with your imagination, I think you should be very smart.”

.....

Isabella was stunned. “But...”

“But what?”

Joseph frowned. “Although we were together for a few years, we were still young at that time. We didn’t do anything. Later, when we were a little older, my shrewd grandfather found out about it after we kissed. He even asked the bodyguards to keep an eye on me every day. When I secretly avoided the bodyguards to see her, it was only a few minutes at most. We didn’t even have time to talk. What else could we do? What kind of person do you think I am?”

As he spoke, his face darkened and he pushed Isabella on the head impolitely. “You have eaten too much junk food. Is your brain filled with rubbish? If you dare to hint at me again, I will punish you today!”

This time, Isabella did not complain about Joseph pushing her. Instead, she stared at Joseph in disbelief. “Don’t tell me you two didn’t do anything. You... You were childhood sweethearts. You grew up together and went through puberty together...”

Joseph was about to explode, shaking Isabella’s head. “Are you done yet? You and Lukas have been through puberty, and you haven’t done anything to him either!”

Isabella’s eyes flashed, and she suddenly became a little serious. “So Stella lied to me... The words she said that day... It is not true... How could this be...”

“I don’t know when you talked, and I don’t know what you two talked about.”

Joseph turned around. “But in any case, you just have to believe me in the future. Don’t listen to other people’s words, especially Stella. She is still under treatment because of emotional problems. Do you think you can believe her words?”

Isabella looked at Joseph’s serious expression and suddenly thought of something. She hugged him in surprise. “Mr. Joseph, if what you said is true, does that prove that you still keep your virginity for me for 30 years? Did you also...”

“What?”

Joseph’s face suddenly turned red, and he pushed Isabella away. “I have played with many women. How could it be possible? Stop dreaming!”

“But you said that there was nothing going on between you and Stella.”

“If I dare to sleep with women at that time, my grandfather will hang me at the entrance of the manor! But for an outstanding man like me, I had girlfriends before! Don’t you know that I am very popular?” Joseph pushed Isabella away impatiently. “Hurry up and sit down. Be careful. I will drag you out of my car!”

Isabella looked at Joseph’s nervous and embarrassed expression. She felt that she might be right. She gave him a wink and tied herself up with a seat belt with satisfaction. “If you haven’t, then so be it. Why are you nervous? It’s nothing.”

Joseph stepped on the accelerator. “Cut the crap!”

Isabella wrinkled her nose. “Actually, you’re right. With your terrible temper, only a bumpkin like me can accept you. Cedric once said that although you have a pretty face, all the girls who want to get close to you are scared away by you. You are scary... No wonder Grandpa is afraid that you won’t be able to marry a girl you really like...” She laughed.

“Isabella!”

“What? Darling?”

Joseph was about to go crazy.

But he wasn’t a good talker like Isabella, and he could not fight. He could only suppress his anger and return to the manor with a red face.

An hour later, the car arrived at the Wilson Manor.

Isabella saw the familiar scenery from afar and felt very comforted. However, just as she got out of the car happily, she was so scared that she almost fainted...

Joseph walked to her side and put his arm around her shoulder, showing off. “This was specially decorated to welcome you back. Do you like it?”

At the entrance of the Wilson Manor, the majestic gate was densely packed with all kinds of cartoon dolls. Then, with a gust of wind, the dolls hung there, drifting along with the wind...

The scene was so strange...

Isabella suddenly understood what it meant to “hang you at the entrance of the manor”. She instantly gritted her teeth and said, “Mr. Joseph, who did this?”

“Of course, it’s me!”

Joseph pointed to himself with his thumb and said proudly, “Don’t you like those stupid dolls? How is it? Today, I went to the bathroom to secretly call someone to arrange it. I moved all the dolls in the city. Of course, in addition to this, on the road to the manor, there are dolls everywhere in your room. Isn’t it romantic? Are you moved? Do you love me?”

“Well...”

“What do you mean by ‘well’? I’m asking you if you’re touched or not. I’ve got all you want for you!”

Isabella looked at Joseph’s serious and proud expression and was sure that he meant good. She instantly heaved a sigh of relief and tried hard to force a smile. “I’m so touched that I’m about to cry. But I think it’s more suitable for you to welcome me today with roses...”

“Well, then cry loudly in my arms.”

Joseph pulled Isabella into his arms, bent over, and carried her to the manor.

Isabella was stunned and struggled slightly. “Why did you suddenly pick me up? It won’t be good if people see it.”

“I think you can’t walk because of last night. I should just pick you up. After all, it was the first time that you’ve done it and we did it so many times. You won’t be able to take it.”

There were gardeners and servants all around who greeted them. Therefore, Joseph’s words made Isabella feel ashamed. He said it as if there was no one else around. She blushed and got hotter. Isabella pulled Joseph’s collar. “Lower your voice!”
