Chapter 408: Chapter 408

408 Who Is Michael?

Joseph knew Isabella lied to him. Isabella indeed wanted to be in a commercial. Thus, he smiled at her. “Alright. I can’t deny that I am rich. But I will never stop you from doing what you want to do. You’re a human being. You have the right to make decisions for yourself.”

“Really?” Isabella said excitedly, “Darling, does it mean I can pursue my career?”

“Kind of that. I know you don’t want to depend on me. And earning money will make you feel happy. Just do what you want to do. I will be with you forever.”

Isabella was moved. “Darling, thank you!”

Joseph smiled helplessly. “You can do whatever you want. But I have requirements.”

Isabella nodded without hesitation. “What are your requirements? Tell me. I promise I will satisfy you with your requirements!”

Joseph held onto Isabella. “Well, my condition is that you can only sign my company’s endorsements.”

Isabella was stunned. “What? It is a little weird. Why can’t I cooperate with other companies?”

Joseph thought for a while. And then he asked, “Weird? Of course not. You are going to be my wife. Isn’t it normal I want to be your partner in your career?”

.....

Isabella pouted unhappily. “But I want to rely on my own.”

Joseph said, “No way, my silly girl. You are pure. I don’t think you can take care of yourself. Have you forgotten what happened when you came to meet Director Lee? I won’t let such kinds of things happen again. You can depend on me. Oaky?”

Isabella was speechless.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Isabella knew what Joseph said was the truth, but she still didn’t change her mind. She then pretended to look angry. But when she met Joseph’s eyes, she flinched. Isabella put her palm on her face to pretend to cry. “It’s fine if you don’t want me to cooperate with other companies. But how could you say so? Silly girl? Have you ever tried to believe me? I can take care of myself.”

Joseph felt funny about what Isabella did. He took away Isabella’s hands from her face and said, “Forget it. I’m kidding. You can work for other companies. But I will be your agent to deal with these matters.”

Isabella threw herself into Joseph’s arms like a little cat. “That won’t be a problem! I was afraid of being cheated! If you are willing to be my agent, I won’t have to worry about anything! Thank you, darling!”

Joseph rubbed Isabella’s head with gentleness. He teased, “Then can I get any rewards for that?”

Joseph’s words warmed Isabella. Thus, she got Joseph’s point and didn’t refuse him. Joseph then had his reward that night.

Isabella had an appointment to talk about the endorsement at half past nine. But the crazy night made her a little tired.

Joseph had gotten up. And then he saw Isabella rubbing her waist and legs on the bed. It made him laugh. “Do you need my help? I don’t think you have the energy to change clothes yourself.”

Isabella recalled what happened the last time Joseph helped her put on her clothes. Then she refused. She didn’t want to be late. Isabella shook her head. “I can do it myself. But I need you to send me my clothes.”

Joseph laughed and then got out of the bed to find the clothes.

After that, Joseph and Isabella went downstairs.

They saw Charlie discussing with William the details of their engagement party. Isabella walked over happily. “Grandpa, do you need help?”

“No, I can handle it.”

Charlie took off his glasses and said, “I’ve been looking forward to this day for a long time. Thus, I must check all the details in person. Just enjoy yourselves. I will handle it.”

“But it may make you feel exhausted. Let us help you. Okay?” Isabella persuaded.

“Don’t worry. I can deal with these things during the day and rest at night. By the way, Isabella looks tired. Joseph, take care of her,” said Charlie.

Isabella didn’t know what to say.

She then stared at Joseph angrily. Joseph was the real culprit who made her look tired.

Joseph shrugged. “Grandpa, I’ve taken care of her day and night. I am innocent. I think Isabella needs more exercise. Am I right, Isabella?”

Isabella blushed. ‘How could Joseph tease me like this? How could he say these words in front of grandpa and William? Take care of me day and night? He must want to do it to shame me.’

Isabella grinned. “Joseph, I think you are the one who needs more exercise.”

Joseph felt a little offended. He then glared at Isabella.

It didn’t scare Isabella. Isabella stared right back.

Charlie raised his head and changed the topic. “By the way, Joseph, Michael will be back with Andy and Andrew in a few days. Be ready to welcome them.”

Joseph paused. Then he nodded. “I see.”

Isabella and Joseph went out together after breakfast. Isabella asked with curiosity, “Who Is Michael? Is Michael your dad’s brother? I seem to have read it on the Internet. And who are Andy and Andrew? Are they your cousins?”

Joseph checked his schedule and said with indifference, “Yes.”

Isabella was excited. “This is the first time I’ve seen your other family members! I’m so excited! How old are your two cousins? Are they cute? I quite like cute stuff. And I once felt sad that John was not as cute as before. John was an adorable child when he was young.”

Joseph sneered. “Cute? Andy and Andrew are not cute guys. They are three years older than you. How could they be cute?”

Isabella looked at Joseph and thought for a while. “You don’t like them, do you?”

Joseph shrugged in disdain. “Of course. I’m not a fool. I won’t like them. Why do I like those who want to fight over inheritances with me?”

Isabella was stunned for a while. She didn’t expect there to be many grudges between Joseph and his family members. She then smiled at him. “Take it easy. Anyway, grandpa loves you a lot. Everyone knows it well. After all, not all grandpas will be willing to supervise all the details of an engagement party for their grandsons.”

Joseph closed the schedule and said, “Michael is not a good thing. Otherwise, grandpa won’t choose me to be his heir. And I know grandpa loves me a lot. Thanks to that, I can take charge of the Global Group smoothly after losing my dad.”
