Chapter 468 - 468 An Unlucky Dream

468 An Unlucky Dream

He was in a dilemma. He was still in worry when Cedric took advantage of his absence to harass Isabella again.

No wonder Isabella had not returned for such a long time. For a moment, he was so shocked that his heart almost standstill. Oh, God...

Cedric was very annoying.

How could his woman be hounded by other men again and again? If it weren’t for Cedric, he and Isabella wouldn’t have had to clear up considerable misunderstandings. He was so despicable!

Therefore, Joseph exploded and threw a punch at Cedric...

And then, just like before, he ended up with a black and blue face.

Joseph thought for a moment, then couldn’t help but think back to that mixed-blood man. He couldn’t help but shake his head and wipe his face. “Impossible, there’s no reason for him to come here...”

After thinking for a while, he clenched his fists. “Anyway, I can’t be careless. I won’t let anyone take away what I cherish. I definitely won’t...”

Joseph hurriedly turned off the shower and casually took a towel to try his hands off. Then he picked up the phone next to him and dialed Gerry.

.....

“Mr. Joseph. It’s already so late. What can I do for you?” Gerry asked.

“Help me investigate...” Joseph’s voice hesitated for a moment, “where Kason Ward had shown up.”

Gerry was stunned. After a long time, he asked, full of doubt, “Kason Ward?”

“Check if he is in America now...” Joseph clenched his fists, “Or has he done something special recently, like going to China? Immediately reply to me when you find it.”

” ... Yes.” Gerry paused, “I will investigate as soon as possible and reply to you as soon as possible.”

“Alright.”

After hanging up the phone, Joseph was no longer in the mood to shower. He walked out of the bathroom with a towel around him. When he saw Isabella lying on the bed with her back to him, careless of drying his body off, he hurriedly went forward and hugged Isabella from behind. He said hoarsely, “Isabella, let’s hug for a while.”

He turned her over and found Isabella had slept soundly with stuff in her hand, which slipped out of her palm.

Joseph took a look and realized that it was a little devil doll.

The doll was much smaller than the one Ceres had bought with 30 yuan. It was also much more exquisite. The one before was purple, while this one was black with red horns and a tail. It was also covered in small fur. The small fork in its hand was very lifelike.

It should be a pendant.

Joseph picked it up and hung it in his hand. He couldn’t help but laugh. Although it was a little devil, its face was chubby and cute. Its buttocks were also plump. It might be a cute version. It should be the souvenir that Isabella had bought in the amusement park.

What a persistent girl. After knowing him for so long, she bought three things for him. Except for the filter smoke as his birthday gift, the other two were both little devils. Oh, the box for the birthday gift was also with a pattern of the little devil.

How much was he like a devil in her heart? He liked her and indulged her so much!

However, although it was a little devil doll, she would think of buying gifts for him when she went out alone after being mad at “betray”. This proved that even when she was angry, her feelings for him would not fade.

It was also quite good.

Joseph held the pendant and tittered. Although he was not childish and used to disdain this kind of little stuff, he did not know if it was because he had been assimilated by Isabella. He felt it was a little cute and loved it.

So, he lowered his head and kissed Isabella on the forehead. Then, he tucked her in and placed the pendant on the bed. He carefully held Isabella into his arms before turning off the bedside lamp...

In the night, Joseph had a dream.

In the dream, a tall man was wearing a silver-gray suit. His face could not be seen clearly, but his contempt was so clear and familiar.

“Young man, I admire your arrogance, but there will be no good results if you offend me...”

“You will pay the price. You will regret it one day.” Malevolence glittered in his dark green eyes.

“I will get rid of you! Devon Morgan!” At that time, Joseph was still an immature young man around twenty years old. He held his gun and shouted, “You dirty and despicable fellow! I’m telling you that I’m not afraid of death. I’m not afraid of anything!”

“Bang.”

As he spoke, a gunshot rang out, hitting Devon on the shoulder.

“...”

Devon clutched his bleeding shoulder. He did not seem to feel any pain at all. He only sneered with an even more sinister and cold voice, “Really? I look forward to it... I hope that you can always be so fearless and heroic. Otherwise, what fun would my life have been? How dare you barge into my headquarters alone? I will teach you one day that the most terrible thing in the world is not death but living in living hell.”

“Devon! Kill me if you dare!”

“Kill you? No, it’s too boring. Let’s play a game. Who do you think this is?”

Isabella instantly screamed, “Save me, Joseph! I’m scared! I’m so scared!”

“Isabella?” Joseph was stunned, “Isabella, where are you?”

“Joseph! I’m afraid. I’m scared! Help!”

“Don’t be afraid. I’m here to save you!”

In the dark space, Isabella’s face, which was full of tears and panic, was revealed. Joseph hurriedly reached out to grab it, but a pair of hands reached out from behind Isabella and grabbed her neck, dragging her into the darkness.

“Help!”

Isabella screamed and was quickly swallowed by the darkness. Joseph was so frightened that he immediately reached out to grab Isabella. However, no matter how he ran, Isabella kept getting further and further away from him. Her face was filled with horror and despair. With a gunshot, the air became bloody-red, blurring his vision.

“No ... No! Isabella!”

Joseph suddenly bounced up from the bed and reached out his hand to grab the air, sweating profusely.

Probably because he was too excited, he bumped into Isabella, who was next to him. Isabella muttered, “The food you bought is delicious.” Then she turned over and hugged Joseph again, sleeping soundly.

“Isabella...”

Joseph felt Isabella’s calf around his waist, and let out a sigh of relief. He closed his eyes and only regained his calm after a long time.

“Why would I have such an unlucky dream...”

Joseph mopped his brow and lay down again. He held Isabella into his arms, kissed her forehead, and stroked the back of her head as if he was holding a treasure.

Isabella, who was in her dreams, as if she dreamed of happiness or she felt Joseph’s warm embrace again, smiled sweetly in a dreamlike state, “I love you, Joseph...”
