“Miss Bridges, tell me your term. Who secretly instructs you to slander Kathy?” Joseph always said in
an indifferent tone.
He turned a blind eye to Ella’s being cute.
Ella thought Joseph’s tone was so sold as if he only regarded her as a business partner.
It was different from her imagination.
“I want you to marry me.” She finally had the courage to say these words.
She didn’t expect she could meet Joseph again and she would never give up this chance this time.
Joseph heard her words and kept the same expression.
Ella was Sophie Fisher.
He knew it.
“If I don’t marry you, you will not help Kathy clean the air, right?” Joseph said in a low and dangerous
tone.
His gaze made her felt scared and nervous.
But she still tried to keep her courage and said, “I have no idea what you’re talking about. If you marry
me, you will be my husband and definitely I will help you. If you won’t, I won’t either.”
Joseph frowned. He understood what Ella meant.
He also knew that Kathy would definitely be dropped out of school without Ella’s help.
Now he still could not influence the decision of Ocean University but the woman in front of him was the
only one who could change the current situation.
Joseph pressed his eyebrows. Instead of drinking the glass of wine, he picked up the lemonade next to
him.
He knew her tricks too well.
That glad of wine had been already drugged.
“What do you think? Joseph, you would benefit from our marriage and my stepdad’s family is much
stronger than the Smith family.” Ella looked at him expectantly.
But Joseph’s indifference made her upset.
She looked down and felt depressed.
“Ella, we could get married.”
When she almost lost her confidence, she heard Joseph’s words in a deep tone.
She gradually felt hopeful and stared at this handsome man in front of her.
Was it all real?...
She pinched her thigh hard and it hurt.
It was real!
“Joseph…” She stared at him and kept laughing.
“Go back to City N with me.” Joseph indifferently said and didn’t continue to eat.
Ella was very happy, trotting to catch up with Joseph. “I will go back with you immediately. So when will
we get married?”
“One month later.”
“Wait for me at the airport tomorrow morning.” Joseph drove Ella back and told her.
“Won’t you come to pick me up?” Ella looked at him expectantly.
“I am busy.” Joseph said without expression.
Ella bit her lips and was about to speak. At this time Joseph indifferently said, “You forced me to marry
you so don’t expect too much. I don’t like you. Ella”
I don’t like you.
Ella kept thinking of Joseph’s indifferent words.
She sobbed in a low voice and ran into villa.
Ella didn’t see her brother Reece Bridges just coming downstairs and ran into his arms.
“Hum” Ella was angry.
Reece frowned and supported his sister. “Who makes you cry?”
“Myself.”
Reece still frowned, looking at the door. He gradually smiled.
“Do you talk with Joseph smoothly?” Reece sat on the sofa. He wore a pure black shirt and looked
mysterious.
“He agrees to marry me but he doesn’t like me.” Ella was annoyed.
“You should have anticipated this before.” Reece turned on the lighter with his slender hand. Under the
flames, he looked charming and handsome.
“But he is divorced with Kathy. Why does he dislike me?”
“It is enough for you to marry him.” Reece took the cigarette.
Ella drummed her cheeks and vowed, “I will marry him and he must fall in love with me.”
Reece turned to look at his young sister who dressed very maturely but still naïve.
He taught her for a year but she still didn’t change.
“Good luck to you. Remember not to say more.” Reece reminded her.
Ella looked at his back and shivered by his cold smile.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm down.
She could go back to City N with Joseph tomorrow and leave Reece.
In City N.
Bertie sent Kathy back to school and she felt better than just now.
Considering her physical condition, Bertie wanted to speak but stopped.
He finally didn’t say anything.
“Thank you.” Kathy politely said.
“You’re welcome.” Bertie watched her get out of the car and his eyes were full of infatuation.
He clenched the steering wheel and didn’t leave.
Kathy went back to the dormitory. She had a lot of homework and quickly she started to do her
homework.
But she unconsciously looked at the calendar. There were only three days.。
She picked up the phone but did not receive any message. Joseph still didn’t contact her.
Did she should not pin her hopes on him?
But she always thought they were lovers.
However, why did he not contact her for two days?
Kathy felt depressed. She found Joseph’s phone number and dialed him.
He answered the call this time.
“Kathy” His voice was hoarse and it seemed he hadn’t rest for a long time.
“I want to know do you find that nurse?” Kathy directly said her question.
“Yes, she was found already.”
“Could she go back to City N?”
“We will arrive at tomorrow morning.”
It was a good new but Kathy didn’t want to laugh.
And she even wanted to cry.
“I see.”
Soon Kathy hung up. Why did they talk in such an indifferent way?
She cared about him but she could not speak out.
Maybe everything would be fine after Joseph coming back tomorrow. He was just too tired.
Kathy comforted herself again but she had insomnia this night.
The next day, at City N airport.
Ella didn’t come back with Joseph. He took the early flight.
But he arranged people to drive her to the Ocean University.
She just went into the car and her phone rang.
“When you get to the school, John will take you to find Kathy.” Joseph indifferently said.
Ella bit her lips and discontentedly said, “I don’t want to go to the school now. I am tired and I need
rest.”
“Ok, you could go to platform for a rest then go to school in the afternoon.
“Joseph, Are you anxious for me to do it?” Ella unhappily said.
“Yes, otherwise you will not see me today.” Joseph said in a cold voice.
Ella pouted. If she could not see Joseph, she would be very upset.
“I will go to the school in the afternoon.”
After hanging up the phone, Ella directly ordered John to drive her to school.
