467 My Sweetie Is So Cute
An hour later, in the Wilson Manor.
Joseph sat on the sofa. Isabella pursed her lips and applied the salve to him with her fingers.
Joseph covered his face and took a deep breath, “Don’t be so harsh.”
“You’re getting engaged in a few days. How can you attend it with the wound? How embarrassing!” Isabella poked Joseph’s face.
Joseph held onto Isabella’s hand and smiled cheekily. “Doctor Morris said that this salve is very useful. You have used it before. I’m sure that I can recover in three days. Therefore, the wound won’t affect our engagement.”
Isabella was stunned. Then, she pulled out her other hand and poked Joseph viciously.
Joseph immediately covered his face and glared at Isabella. “Isabella! Don’t go overboard! You hugged other men today! I’ll get to you later.”
“You’re the one who’s going overboard!” Isabella was not afraid of Joseph at all. She said righteously, “Why can’t you be sensible? Can’t you talk with Cedric before making a move? It wasn’t easy for me to reconcile with him, and you ruined it! When Cedric left, he was going crazy!”
“Who allowed you to hug each other?”
.....
“That was a friendly hug! It meant we made up with each other. Not only did he help me, but he also agreed to come to the engagement party calmly. I was just excited!” Isabella shook her head helplessly. “In any case, you have seen the world. Aren’t westerners always hugging others anytime, anywhere? This is a way of showing extreme happiness! It’s a way of expressing friendship that is more precious and profound than an ordinary one!”
“Westerners even kiss others wherever and whenever they are! Are you a westerner?” Joseph retorted, “You are my wife, and you are not allowed to hug other men!”
“A hug means nothing. I often hug David! Isn’t there nothing wrong with it?”
“What? You often hug that sissy? Let me tell you, Isabella! Other than me, you are not allowed to hug any other man in the future!” Joseph held onto Isabella’s hand in an overbearing manner. He was like an unreasonable child. “Indeed, it means nothing. However, I won’t allow other men to touch your body! You have ample bosom!”
“Hey! Joseph, you rogue!”
Isabella went crazy and slapped Joseph on the head. “You’re so nasty. Ample bosom? I’m so angry!”
Joseph rubbed his head and looked at the angry Isabella hugging her arms. He thought for a moment and reached out to hug Isabella, “Alright, let’s have a hug.”
Isabella shook him off and said pretentiously, “I’m angry and I won’t hug you. If Cedric changes his mind because of this, I won’t forgive you! I particularly hope that he can reconcile with us!”
Joseph snorted. “Reconcile? Have you forgotten how he provoked us? He colluded with Stella to pit us against each other! It almost caused us to have a misunderstanding that is difficult to resolve!”
“Stella?”
“If you were to be honest with me, there wouldn’t be any misunderstanding at all. Besides, it seems that you thought it was all Cedric’s fault. It was your Stella who was the worst!”
“Stella is a patient, and she is mentally unstable. Even the doctor said that she is radical. Even if I am angry with her, how can I blame her? Don’t believe her, okay? However, Cedric is knowing and cunning!”
“You’re so annoying! You can’t talk about him like this! The culprit is obviously Stella! Cedric was fooled!”
“Being fooled? No one would believe it! He pretended to be a good person to gain goodwill after he failed to drive a wedge between us!”
“Joseph! You are so childish! If Cedric really wanted to do something to me, how could he let you see it? He would kidnap me directly! You know his methods!”
Joseph was silent for a while and stopped bickering with Isabella. “Hey, let me ask you, did Cedric really promise to calmly attend our engagement party?”
“To not let you misunderstand, he followed us the whole day just to find a chance to apologize to me alone!”
Isabella sighed. “We could improve the relationship, but you... If I were Cedric, I would also be furious! He finally made up his mind to reconcile with us! But he was beaten up by you!”
Joseph was silent again and said slightly, “If he comes to our engagement party calmly this time and doesn’t stir up trouble, I will forgive about the past and treat him well like before.”
As he spoke, he went to hug Isabella, like a fawning child.
“Can you be more mature? You’re already so old, but why are you so childish sometimes? Even if you can’t get used to it, shouldn’t you think twice before you take action? Listen to the reason first!”
Joseph smiled and touched Isabella’s face. “Because you are so cute, and there are many bad people who want you.”
Isabella rolled her eyes and smiled helplessly. She leaned into Joseph’s arms and suddenly thought of something. She immediately pushed him away. “Go take a shower. You’re sweating all over from the fight!”
Joseph smelled his clothes and shook his head with a smile. He had to stand up, “Although we aren’t married, now you are completely like a hostess.”
Isabella immediately bluffed and said, “So you have to please me in the future! Hurry up and take a bath. I’ll give you something fun later!”
“What?”
“Take a shower first!”
“Alright. As you wish, Your Majesty.”
Joseph closed the bathroom door happily. The moment the door closed and he saw Isabella’s smiling face. He paused thoughtfully and then turned on the shower.
The water ran down his hair and back, and the familiar figure that Joseph saw in the amusement park came into his mind.
Tall, flaxen hair with waves, a straight nose, defined outline, and that familiar but chilling smile...
There was one thing Joseph had not confessed to Isabella just now.
He had just lost control in the amusement park and beat up Cedric. A part of the reason was he felt panicking when he saw the figure that he was familiar with but was somewhat fearful of.
Because disasters were always along with that man, he was very flustered at that time and was very afraid that something bad would happen, so he hurriedly went to find Isabella and wanted to bring her with him. Unexpectedly, he saw Cedric hug Isabella.
