Chapter 387 Heâs Destined to Be Disappointed
Joe pretended not to notice her gaze and took her all the way back to his room.
Wesley was a little stunned. âMr. Smithâ¦?â
âWait a minute.â Joe motioned for her to sit on the sofa while he dialed a number to talk to the other party in H countryâs
language. Not long after, a person who looked like a doctor came to visit.
When he saw Wesleyâs wound, the other party frowned and said, âThis wound is a little deep. You may need stitches.â
Wesley turned pale. She glanced at him, bit her lip, and said, âIt doesnât matter. I can bear it.â
The doctor took out an anesthetic with a strange expression and injected it into her finger.
Wesley was speechless.
Her face instantly turned red. Carefully glancing at Joe, she realized that he wasnât looking at her. Only then did she let out a sigh of relief.
The stitches were quickly completed. The doctor left Joe with a few instructions before leaving in a hurry.
Joe looked at Wesley and said gently, âDonât get your hand wet for the next few days. You can rest in your room.â
Wesley quickly shook her head and said, âNo need! You donât need to rest. What if it delays your businessâ¦â
âAnd Jack, I donât need an injured employee to work for me.â Joe interrupted her disapprovingly.
Although his tone was stiff, it sounded like he was concerned about her. Wesley lowered her head and said softly, âAt
least let me do something within my ability.â
Enter titleâ¦
Her voice was very soft and seemed to carry a hint of coquettishness. Joe was silent for a moment before suddenly
asking, âHave we met before?â
Wesley was shocked and quickly shook her head. âWe havenât seen each other before. Why do you ask?â
âI feel a sense of familiarity with you,â Joe said bluntly.
Wesley changed her expression slightly and narrowed her eyes. âMaybe itâs because Iâm too ordinary-
looking that you
misunderstood me.â
Joe was noncommittal and sent her back to her room.
What she didnât know was that after she left, Jack immediately went to Joeâs room. âIâve investigated it.
Someone
deliberately sharpened the steak knife and sent it to the table.â
Unlike the gentle boss earlier, Joe was exuding a cold aura. He stood tall and straight by the window with a sneer on his
face. âSheâs quite ruthless.â
Before leaving, the doctor specifically told him that the injury caused by the accident would not be so deep and asked him
to pay attention to whether someone had deliberately framed Wesley. How could he have thought that it was Wesley
herself?
He thought for a moment and asked Jack, âCharlotte⦠how did she react?â
It was indeed unnecessary to go through so much trouble to investigate Wesley, but this was not Joeâs only purpose. He
wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Charlotte.
Unfortunately, he was destined to be disappointed.
âAfter you and Miss Wesley left, she also finished her breakfast not long ago, and then left with her assistant.â Jack looked around. They left very quickly and had no intention of asking about it at all.
Jack didnât dare to say that, so he could only gloss it over.
Just by looking at his expression, Joe understood what he meant. With an indifferent expression, he said, âTomorrow, Iâll
ask her to come into the room to get the documents. Get ready.â
Jack immediately nodded. âI see.â
