Chapter 896 896: Sometimes I Also Defeated You



"Leo, I do this for your sake. However, once the money is transferred through the corporate bank account, you cannot avoid your connection to it."

Leo laughed, "I never want to avoid the connection. I will do it on my own. I am not going to hide it."

"You are right." Scar thought of it for a while, "I will give you an overseas bank account soon."

"No problem."

After Scar left, Fredrick asked Leo, "Is he trustworthy?"

"Do you think he dares to ask for $500,000,000 just to cheat?" Leo asked. 

True. Nobody dared to do it. It was so challenging. They saw him personally. It was so easy to find such a person.

Fredrick hesitated, "We don't know him completely yet."

"It doesn't matter. I am not interested in it. I am only interested in the chips he was holding. Leo answered.

"Why do you do it with a corporate bank account?" Fredrick couldn't understand.

Leo just smiled lightly. He didn't answer.

Today's individual case was more serious, so Irish just worked overtime at the Linkus Mental Research Institute. She collected all the files again.

It was already 9 pm when she came back home.

As she stepped into the house, it began raining. It bumped on the windows, adding more noise at night.

Irish opened the light.

She noticed it was dimmed.

She entered and changed her shoes. She looked up at the hanging light. After a while, she checked her bag and took out her phone, dialing Joseph's private number.

Soon, it got through.

"Is there an alternative bulb at home?" She asked.

Joseph asked, "Doesn't the original one work?"

"No." Irish had a response finally, "Are you at a meeting?" It was quiet on the other phone.

Joseph said in a low voice, "Do not stay in the living room. Wait for me inside our room."

"Oh, don't bother. The light turned brighter now." Irish said immediately, "Just continue the meeting."

After the conversation, she looked at the darkness, regretting lying a while ago.

There was still electricity in other rooms. 

After taking a bath to ease her tiredness, Irish intended to surf the internet to check some TV shows. When she opened the computer, she saw the news about the Runestone Group again, she just closed it directly.

Coming back to the living room, she watched TV.

The rain got heavier. She began to worry whether Joseph had taken an umbrella or not. She then realized that she didn't need to worry about it since Daisy would not let Joseph be poured by rain.

The sight was not so comfortable. When she was at home, she liked to light it up, especially on rainy nights. Otherwise, she would feel lonely.

Standing up, she went around in the living room and tried her best to find an alternative bulb. Holding it in her hands, she felt so startled. It was an excellent crystal texture, which touched so well.

Irish took a glance at the alternative light in her hands and then the hanging light high above her head. She exclaimed about it and thought that one day when she couldn't afford to make a living, she could sell the light.

However, the problem now was that she must light it up, or it was so dark in the living room with floor lights only. Irish thought of it for a while. She was thinking about how she could change the broken light.

A utility room occurred to her mind. She remembered that there was a household ladder within it, so she just took it out immediately.

There was lightning and thunder outside.

Irish took the ladder out and made it firm. She put the alternative light into the pocket of her dress and then climbed onto the ladder. It was just a piece of cake for her.

Just at this moment, she felt that it was good to have a hobby of climbing. At least she wasn't afraid of heights when she was climbing the ladder.

But…

How to change the light?

Noticing her empty hands, Irish took out the alternative light. Was a tool needed? She thought.

Thinking for a while, frowned, she climbed down from the ladder and began to search for the tools.

She is having trouble thinking about which tool to use.

Irish had the whole tool case on her back and climbed up the ladder.

Anyway, there must be a tool that could be used on it.

But the problem was...

A significant clue was needed.

Irish couldn't figure out how to change the light.

She lifted up the flashlight and thought for a while. She still couldn't find the commissure on the modulator tube. 

She had been researching the bulb for twenty minutes.

She ended up getting annoyed. Irish felt angry. She couldn't believe that even a simple task she couldn't do. When she was to dismantle the light, the lift opened.

"What are you doing?" When Joseph saw the scene, he felt so shocked, so he just shouted out.

The shouting frightened Irish. Her body shook, and she nearly fell down the ladder. 

Joseph was shocked. He even had no time to change his leather shoes. He just walked forward and supported the ladder tightly.

Luckily, an accident was avoided. 

"Go down now," Joseph ordered.

Irish didn't want to flaunt her superiority, so she just followed him.

"Give me the tool case first." Joseph was afraid that it would be inconvenient for her to go down.

Irish handed the tool case to him. He grabbed it and put it aside, supporting the ladder constantly. 

He finally felt relieved when she went down, frowning, "Didn't I tell you to wait for me?"

"You are so busy, and I thought that it was only the bulb issue." Irish laughed as she climbed down.

Joseph didn't know how to answer, so he just ruffled her head.

"Do we need to call the repairman?" Irish asked.

Joseph didn't answer, quickly returned to the shoe rack and removed his shoes. 

Irish approached him and added, "Why did you just buy such a strange light? It's difficult to change it."

"Sully." Joseph smiled at her. 

Irish didn't like the comment, "Am I stupid in your eyes? You chose the bad light design."

Joseph took a glance at her and couldn't help laughing. However, he still scolded her, "Next time, if you still do this kind of task, I'll punish you."

Irish closed her lips lightly and smiled.

She followed him as she saw him entering the cloakroom, probing, "Don't we need a repairman?"

"If so, why do you marry me?" Joseph changed his dress in front of her.

Seeing his strong chest, Irish was full of admiration, and she praised him, "So sexy."

Joseph changed his clothes and poked her head as he was to leave, "Hold on," He walked to the ladder.

"How can I hold it while looking at your sexy body?" 

Irish strode forward and giggled.

"You are no match for me." Joseph opened his toolbox and took out two tools into his hand, laughing.

Irish was not convinced, "Sometimes I also defeated you."

"Like in which case?" Joseph got onto the ladder.
