455 Savior
Andrew lowered his eyes, a hint of disgust in them. He said, âEven if Joseph really wants to protect you and lower the difficulty of the examination for you. However, just from your education, you donât even have the qualifications to submit your resume. Besides, the Wilson Group doesnât belong to Joseph alone. There are more than ten prestigious shareholders. They canât turn a blind eye to you!â
John immediately retorted, âIt was indeed impossible for me to enter the Wilson Group. But wasnât the Global Group founded by Joseph alone? Since it was something that Joseph had the final say, who would dare not listen to him? Rosy is the production director of my fatherâs company. When she held the position, some people said that she was too young to be a director. But now Rosy has great power in the company. Whatâs more, as long as I have enough money, I can make a perfect education background for myself...â
âDonât say anymore!â
Isabella covered Johnâs mouth. She felt that her face was burning. She was completely ashamed as she pulled John and begged, âJohn, stop messing around. A job is not as simple as you think. Joseph canât completely take you under his wing. Go back to school! Be good!â
John threw Isabella away angrily and said, âIt was Joseph who personally promised Daddy that he would take care of me and would give me a small company to manage in the future. How can he not keep his word? Didnât you discuss my future with Joseph at all? I am your only brother. I have already told my classmates that I will soon become the CEO of a company. If you send me away like this, how can I face my classmates?â
âJohn!â Isabella pulled John and said, âJoseph has never promised to give you a company. He just said that he would take care of you. Donât say anymore! Hurry up and go back!â
Andrew frowned and wanted to say something. He did not succeed because someone took the initiative to speak.
âDo you know what the full name of the CEO is? If you can say it immediately, maybe I will consider giving you a small company.â
The sudden voice made everyone present pause. Josephâs pleasant and low voice sounded. Joseph held the railing with one hand and slowly walked down the stairs with the other hand in his trouser pocket. He looked at John evilly. Although he was dressed in casual clothes, his tall and straight figure, coupled with his imposing temperament, gave people a strong sense of oppression.
.....
Isabella felt nervous.
Although she hadnât known Joseph for a long time, she was still very clear about Josephâs personality. He never held his emotions to the things and people that he hated.
For example, Joseph would never try the food he disliked. Moreover, he would attack Cedric violently, completely disregarding his friendship with Cedric for decades when he knew that Cedric wanted to pursue his beloved.
Joseph disliked Michael and his family, so even if Andrew and Andy personally visited, he would not greet them.
Joseph didnât know how to suppress his emotions at all, let alone when he saw John, who was so rude and unbridled.
In fact, teaching John a lesson was a small matter. After all, John must have some ulterior motive for visiting Charlie. He should be taught a lesson. However, it would be terrible if something unpleasant happened in front of so many people. Isabella was afraid that her secret would be exposed.
The moment she thought about how Joseph had once hated John and even broke both of Johnâs legs, Isabellaâs face turned pale. She looked at Joseph nervously, wanting to stop him from getting angry. She didnât want the situation to turn to an irredeemable end. âJoseph, John just...â
Unexpectedly, Joseph calmly waved his hand at Isabella and made a gesture, signaling Isabella to keep quiet. Then, he revealed a bright smile. His voice was filled with love and warmth. âJohn! Welcome to my house!â
John looked at Joseph and his expression immediately changed. Although Joseph was smiling brightly at him, John felt terrified. Hence, he immediately stood up and bowed. âJoseph... It turns out that you are at home.â
Andrew and Andy immediately stood up and greeted Joseph politely.
Joseph pressed his hand down and walked over briskly. He enthusiastically walked to Johnâs side and stretched out his long arm to hug John to sit down as he said warmly, âDonât be so polite. Sit down. I want to spend more time with Isabella these days, so Iâve been at home all the time. Why didnât you tell us when you came to play today? Itâs your first time coming to my house. I should warmly greet you.â
John trembled. He felt the wounds on his legs and arms seemed to faintly hurt. âNo, I donât want to trouble you...â
âYou wonât trouble me.â
Joseph rubbed Johnâs head and said with a smile, âIsnât you Isabellaâs only brother? Besides, your legs are not healed. I should have asked someone to pick you up. How have your legs been recently?â
John felt greatly scared when he heard Josephâs words. His fingers gripped his pants tightly as he said, âIâm fine. I feel much better!â
âYou have to take care of yourself. Donât wander around. Otherwise, it will be bad if there are side effects.â Joseph said with concern, âAt such a young age, if you suffer a lifelong disability, Isabella will be worried about you.â
Andrew silently sized up Joseph while Andy raised his eyebrows and looked at John with a face full of interest. Andy asked, âWhatâs wrong with your legs? I saw that your legs were not nimble before, but I didnât ask you.â
âI... I am...â
John trembled so hard that he couldnât speak. Sitting next to Joseph, John felt that it was even worse than sitting on the tip of a needle. It was like someone had wrung his neck.
âHe was robbed by some hooligans before. He was so young and upright that he felt that he had to protect his things well. He didnât know how to protect himself. When he resisted, his legs were broken.â
Joseph was the first to explain. Then, he looked at Charlie and calmly said, âIsabella has been sad about him for a long time. However, this is something that happened when I just met Isabella not long ago, so I didnât tell you.â
Charlie nodded and said in understanding, âNo wonder... When I heard him speak, I felt that he was a little too straightforward. However, I quite like his straightforward personality. He is not pretentious.â
Isabella bit her lips and breathed a sigh of relief. She secretly gave Joseph a thumbs-up in her mind. She decided to praise Joseph to reward him for his impromptu and quick wit. His gentle treatment was so satisfying!
Joseph glanced at Isabella. Seeing Isabella secretly give him a thumbs-up, Joseph smiled. Then, he turned to John and said, âBy the way, John, letâs continue our topic just now. Do you want to manage a small company and be a CEO? What is the full name of the CEO? If you answer the question accurately, I will give you a small company.â
