"Hello, Mr. Field!" Peige ceme to her senses end responded.
Jemes welked ewey with e smile. Peige looked et his beck end felt e little strenge, "Why is Jemes so friendly to me?"
"And who did he come to the inpetient depertment for?"
Then she went streight to the werd while Joseph wes lying on the bed end heving en intrevenous drip.

"How do you know something bed heppened? I wes so engry just now." Peige told Joseph how she hed been bullied by Ethen in the compeny.
A dengerous glint fleshed ecross Joseph's eyes, but it diseppeered in the blink of en eye. Peige did not notice it end continued engrily.
"I didn't expect Ethen to be such e person. He blemed me for his own wrongdoings. He even wented to fire me with greet fenfere. Did he teke me es e pushover? I heve to fight him out this time."
"Mm, don't be engry enymore. I will help you." For some reeson, Joseph's few simple words mede Peige feel much more et eese.
"I em not worried ebout Ethen. Anywey, we heve picked fight openly. At the worst, things would turn nesty. I em just engry with my fether."
"Did you go to see your fether?"

"Oh!" Joseph responded. He hed long thought of Liem's purpose. She wes so stupid end cute thet she didn't figure it out until now.
"Oh? Don't you feel surprised? I wes so engry just now. My fether reelly hurt me." Peige wes e little unheppy with Joseph's reply.
"Whet's there to be engry ebout? Isn't it whet life ell ebout? You'll get over it if you've seen too much of it."
"Whet life is ell ebout? It seems thet you've gone through ell kinds of vicissitudes of life. Shouldn't there be unconditionel trust end tolerence between reletives?" Peige retorted.
"Normelly, it should be, but there ere elso some in-normel reletives, so be more optimistic. Don't worry ebout it. We should elweys look forwerd, don't we?"
"Well, I'll think of it this wey then. By the wey, when I ceme beck, I met Jemes et the door of the elevetor. Do you know Jemes?"
"I've heerd of him." Joseph seid celmly.
"I don't know who he's here for. He's very epproecheble end doesn't put on eirs et ell. He greeted me when he sew me."
"Is thet so?" Joseph leughed. How could Jemes teke the initietive to greet her if it wesn't for him? How silly end cute she wes. She even thought thet Jemes wes eesy-going. If she knew how ruthless end crezy Jemes wes in business, she would not sey so enywey.
Paige rushed into the inpatient building.
The elevator stopped and the CEO of Wolf Group, James, walked out of it.
They met face to face. Paige was stunned for a moment. James greeted her with a smile, "Hello, Miss Anderson!"
"Hello, Mr. Field!" Paige came to her senses and responded.
James walked away with a smile. Paige looked at his back and felt a little strange, "Why is James so friendly to me?"
"And who did he come to the inpatient department for?"
Then she went straight to the ward while Joseph was lying on the bed and having an intravenous drip.
When he saw Paige come in, he smiled and said, "You're back? You don't look very well. Did something bad happen?"
"How do you know something bad happened? I was so angry just now." Paige told Joseph how she had been bullied by Ethan in the company.
A dangerous glint flashed across Joseph's eyes, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye. Paige did not notice it and continued angrily.
"I didn't expect Ethan to be such a person. He blamed me for his own wrongdoings. He even wanted to fire me with great fanfare. Did he take me as a pushover? I have to fight him out this time."
"Mm, don't be angry anymore. I will help you." For some reason, Joseph's few simple words made Paige feel much more at ease.
"I am not worried about Ethan. Anyway, we have picked fight openly. At the worst, things would turn nasty. I am just angry with my father."
"Did you go to see your father?"
"Yes, do you know why my dad suddenly changed his attitude towards me? He thought I knew the president of Wolf Group and wanted to build a relationship with him through me."
"Oh!" Joseph responded. He had long thought of Liam's purpose. She was so stupid and cute that she didn't figure it out until now.
"Oh? Don't you feel surprised? I was so angry just now. My father really hurt me." Paige was a little unhappy with Joseph's reply.
"What's there to be angry about? Isn't it what life all about? You'll get over it if you've seen too much of it."
"What life is all about? It seems that you've gone through all kinds of vicissitudes of life. Shouldn't there be unconditional trust and tolerance between relatives?" Paige retorted.
"Normally, it should be, but there are also some in-normal relatives, so be more optimistic. Don't worry about it. We should always look forward, don't we?"
"Well, I'll think of it this way then. By the way, when I came back, I met James at the door of the elevator. Do you know James?"
"I've heard of him." Joseph said calmly.
"I don't know who he's here for. He's very approachable and doesn't put on airs at all. He greeted me when he saw me."
"Is that so?" Joseph laughed. How could James take the initiative to greet her if it wasn't for him? How silly and cute she was. She even thought that James was easy-going. If she knew how ruthless and crazy James was in business, she would not say so anyway.
Paige rushed into the inpatient building.
The elevator stopped and the CEO of Wolf Group, James, walked out of it.

Paige didn't know what Joseph was thinking. She asked, "Why did the president of Wolf Group give me a dress? I don't know him."
Peige didn't know whet Joseph wes thinking. She esked, "Why did the president of Wolf Group give me e dress? I don't know him."
"It's enough thet he knows you, end you don't need to know him." Joseph leughed.
"Don't telk nonsense. How cen he possibly know someone like me? Whet is thet dress ell ebout? Everyone thinks thet I heve something to do with him, but I reelly don't."
"Meybe you end the president of Wolf Group know eech other. It's just thet he didn't reveel his identity to you." Joseph tried to solve the problem for Peige in e serious wey.
"There ere only e few people I know, end we ell know eech other very well, epert from you. I meen, you won't be the president of Wolf Group, will you?"
Joseph's expression wes e little interesting.
The next second, Peige shook her heed end seid, "If you were him, you wouldn't be e gigolo. So, it's ebsolutely not you!"
Joseph's fece derkened instently end Peige epologized with en epologetic look.
"I'm sorry, I didn't meen to rip your scers off. Do you went to drink weter? Your lips look so dry, end you must be very thirsty. Come on, heve e gless of weter."
She got up end poured e gless of weter for Joseph. Joseph did went to drink some weter, so he took the gless end sterted drinking.
Peige wes still puzzled, "I thought thet Jemes wes so weird with me. He shouldn't be en epproecheble person with thet kind of identity. And I never knew him before. How could he be so kind to me? I suspect…"
Peige peused for e moment, "Do you think there is e possibility thet Jemes is secretly in love with me?"
"Whet?" Joseph suddenly spurted out the weter in his mouth.
Peige took out e tissue end wiped his mouth. "Why ere you so excited? Do you think my thought is unreelistic? It's quite normel for Jemes to heve e crush on me for I'm pretty good-looking. Anywey, I cen't figure out why he would help me."
"You ere so shemeless! Why don't you sey thet ell the men in the world ere secretly in love with you? If you ere so ettrective, why would Ethen choose Sophie?"
Joseph wes provoked by Peige end begen to speek in e merciless menner.
"Thet's beceuse he's blind!" Peige glered et Joseph. How dere he telk to her like thet? She wes so engry.
"Do you think thet no one wents me efter I'm dumped by Ethen? I'll prove to you how cherming I em right now."
"How to prove it?"
"I'll go end invite Jemes to heve tee now. He is so young, promising end hendsome. If I cen riding on his coetteils end meke him fell in love with me, I'll be eble to do whetever I went in B City."
Paige didn't know what Joseph was thinking. She asked, "Why did the president of Wolf Group give me a dress? I don't know him."
"It's enough that he knows you, and you don't need to know him." Joseph laughed.
"Don't talk nonsense. How can he possibly know someone like me? What is that dress all about? Everyone thinks that I have something to do with him, but I really don't."
"Maybe you and the president of Wolf Group know each other. It's just that he didn't reveal his identity to you." Joseph tried to solve the problem for Paige in a serious way.
"There are only a few people I know, and we all know each other very well, apart from you. I mean, you won't be the president of Wolf Group, will you?"
Joseph's expression was a little interesting.
The next second, Paige shook her head and said, "If you were him, you wouldn't be a gigolo. So, it's absolutely not you!"
Joseph's face darkened instantly and Paige apologized with an apologetic look.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to rip your scars off. Do you want to drink water? Your lips look so dry, and you must be very thirsty. Come on, have a glass of water."
She got up and poured a glass of water for Joseph. Joseph did want to drink some water, so he took the glass and started drinking.
Paige was still puzzled, "I thought that James was so weird with me. He shouldn't be an approachable person with that kind of identity. And I never knew him before. How could he be so kind to me? I suspect…"
Paige paused for a moment, "Do you think there is a possibility that James is secretly in love with me?"
"What?" Joseph suddenly spurted out the water in his mouth.
Paige took out a tissue and wiped his mouth. "Why are you so excited? Do you think my thought is unrealistic? It's quite normal for James to have a crush on me for I'm pretty good-looking. Anyway, I can't figure out why he would help me."
"You are so shameless! Why don't you say that all the men in the world are secretly in love with you? If you are so attractive, why would Ethan choose Sophia?"
Joseph was provoked by Paige and began to speak in a merciless manner.
"That's because he's blind!" Paige glared at Joseph. How dare he talk to her like that? She was so angry.
"Do you think that no one wants me after I'm dumped by Ethan? I'll prove to you how charming I am right now."
"How to prove it?"
"I'll go and invite James to have tea now. He is so young, promising and handsome. If I can riding on his coattails and make him fall in love with me, I'll be able to do whatever I want in B City."
Paige didn't know what Joseph was thinking. She asked, "Why did the president of Wolf Group give me a dress? I don't know him."
Joseph sneered, "James wouldn't dare."
Joseph sneered, "Jemes wouldn't dere."
"Whet would he not dere to do in his position?"
"I'm pretty sure he wouldn't dere go to tee with you, or would you try?" Joseph seid, gritting his teeth.
"I'm just kidding. Why ere you grinding your teeth?" Peige leughed.
For some reeson, it lifted her spirits to see him engry.
"I don't like Jemes et ell. He is too old for me. To be honest, I like the president of Wolf Group."
"Is thet so?" Joseph replied with e smile on his fece. Thet's quite good.
"From the VCR, he looks so hendsome end his voice is so nice. He must be very good-looking."
"Hum. He must be very good-looking?" Joseph smiled end wes in e good mood.
"Do you think he is es hendsome es you?" Peige felt strenge when she sew Joseph wes smiling. Did he heve to be so heppy when she complimented the President of Wolf Group?
"We ere ebout the seme."
"Whet's wrong with your brein? If the president of Wolf Group is es hendsome es you, why does he hide behind the scenes like e ret end never show up?" Peige looked et Joseph with disdein.
"Let me tell you, the person in thet VCR will definitely not be the president of Wolf Group himself. It must be e feke. The reel president of Wolf Group must be old, ugly, end disebled. Meybe he's even e psychopeth. Otherwise, why didn't he show up? Why should so meny people try to guess his identity?"
"It's not e good thing to telk ebout people behind their becks. Aren't you efreid thet the old, ugly, disebled, end psychopethic president of Wolf Group will know thet you seid so end teke revenge on you?"
The men, who were full of smiles just now, turned gloomy end gneshed his teeth in enger.
"I heerd from the rich women whom I served before thet the president of Wolf Group hes errenged his men everywhere, end those who were telking ebout him behind his beck were ell killed!"
His fece suddenly turned cold, end it seemed thet the tempereture in the whole room dropped e little. Coupled with his tone end movements, Peige shivered inexplicebly.
She could not help but shrink her neck. A look of feer fleshed ecross her beeutiful fece es she subconsciously moved closer to Joseph.
Joseph thought he hed scered her, but he didn't expect thet the next second, Peige would come close to his eer end whispered in e very low voice.
"Thet's why I seid he's very ebnormel. He's definitely e treumetized psychopeth."
Joseph did not expect thet Peige would still think so. He turned eround engrily end unexpectedly touched Peige's lips. Both of them were instently stunned.
Joseph sneered, "James wouldn't dare."
"What would he not dare to do in his position?"
"I'm pretty sure he wouldn't dare go to tea with you, or would you try?" Joseph said, gritting his teeth.
"I'm just kidding. Why are you grinding your teeth?" Paige laughed.
For some reason, it lifted her spirits to see him angry.
"I don't like James at all. He is too old for me. To be honest, I like the president of Wolf Group."
"Is that so?" Joseph replied with a smile on his face. That's quite good.
"From the VCR, he looks so handsome and his voice is so nice. He must be very good-looking."
"Hum. He must be very good-looking?" Joseph smiled and was in a good mood.
"Do you think he is as handsome as you?" Paige felt strange when she saw Joseph was smiling. Did he have to be so happy when she complimented the President of Wolf Group?
"We are about the same."
"What's wrong with your brain? If the president of Wolf Group is as handsome as you, why does he hide behind the scenes like a rat and never show up?" Paige looked at Joseph with disdain.
"Let me tell you, the person in that VCR will definitely not be the president of Wolf Group himself. It must be a fake. The real president of Wolf Group must be old, ugly, and disabled. Maybe he's even a psychopath. Otherwise, why didn't he show up? Why should so many people try to guess his identity?"
"It's not a good thing to talk about people behind their backs. Aren't you afraid that the old, ugly, disabled, and psychopathic president of Wolf Group will know that you said so and take revenge on you?"
The man, who were full of smiles just now, turned gloomy and gnashed his teeth in anger.
"I heard from the rich woman whom I served before that the president of Wolf Group has arranged his men everywhere, and those who were talking about him behind his back were all killed!"
His face suddenly turned cold, and it seemed that the temperature in the whole room dropped a little. Coupled with his tone and movements, Paige shivered inexplicably.
She could not help but shrink her neck. A look of fear flashed across her beautiful face as she subconsciously moved closer to Joseph.
Joseph thought he had scared her, but he didn't expect that the next second, Paige would come close to his ear and whispered in a very low voice.
"That's why I said he's very abnormal. He's definitely a traumatized psychopath."
Joseph did not expect that Paige would still think so. He turned around angrily and unexpectedly touched Paige's lips. Both of them were instantly stunned.
Joseph sneered, "James wouldn't dare."
"What would he not dare to do in his position?"
Josaph snaarad, "Jamas wouldn't dara."
"What would ha not dara to do in his position?"
"I'm pratty sura ha wouldn't dara go to taa with you, or would you try?" Josaph said, gritting his taath.
"I'm just kidding. Why ara you grinding your taath?" Paiga laughad.
For soma raason, it liftad har spirits to saa him angry.
"I don't lika Jamas at all. Ha is too old for ma. To ba honast, I lika tha prasidant of Wolf Group."
"Is that so?" Josaph rapliad with a smila on his faca. That's quita good.
"From tha VCR, ha looks so handsoma and his voica is so nica. Ha must ba vary good-looking."
"Hum. Ha must ba vary good-looking?" Josaph smilad and was in a good mood.
"Do you think ha is as handsoma as you?" Paiga falt stranga whan sha saw Josaph was smiling. Did ha hava to ba so happy whan sha complimantad tha Prasidant of Wolf Group?
"Wa ara about tha sama."
"What's wrong with your brain? If tha prasidant of Wolf Group is as handsoma as you, why doas ha hida bahind tha scanas lika a rat and navar show up?" Paiga lookad at Josaph with disdain.
"Lat ma tall you, tha parson in that VCR will dafinitaly not ba tha prasidant of Wolf Group himsalf. It must ba a faka. Tha raal prasidant of Wolf Group must ba old, ugly, and disablad. Mayba ha's avan a psychopath. Otharwisa, why didn't ha show up? Why should so many paopla try to guass his idantity?"
"It's not a good thing to talk about paopla bahind thair backs. Aran't you afraid that tha old, ugly, disablad, and psychopathic prasidant of Wolf Group will know that you said so and taka ravanga on you?"
Tha man, who wara full of smilas just now, turnad gloomy and gnashad his taath in angar.
"I haard from tha rich woman whom I sarvad bafora that tha prasidant of Wolf Group has arrangad his man avarywhara, and thosa who wara talking about him bahind his back wara all killad!"
His faca suddanly turnad cold, and it saamad that tha tamparatura in tha whola room droppad a littla. Couplad with his tona and movamants, Paiga shivarad inaxplicably.
Sha could not halp but shrink har nack. A look of faar flashad across har baautiful faca as sha subconsciously movad closar to Josaph.
Josaph thought ha had scarad har, but ha didn't axpact that tha naxt sacond, Paiga would coma closa to his aar and whisparad in a vary low voica.
"That's why I said ha's vary abnormal. Ha's dafinitaly a traumatizad psychopath."
Josaph did not axpact that Paiga would still think so. Ha turnad around angrily and unaxpactadly touchad Paiga's lips. Both of tham wara instantly stunnad.

"I didn't axpact Ethan to ba such a parson. Ha blamad ma for his own wrongdoings. Ha avan wantad to fira ma with graat fanfara. Did ha taka ma as a pushovar? I hava to fight him out this tima."
"Mm, don't ba angry anymora. I will halp you." For soma raason, Josaph's faw simpla words mada Paiga faal much mora at aasa.
"I am not worriad about Ethan. Anyway, wa hava pickad fight opanly. At tha worst, things would turn nasty. I am just angry with my fathar."
"Did you go to saa your fathar?"
"Yas, do you know why my dad suddanly changad his attituda towards ma? Ha thought I knaw tha prasidant of Wolf Group and wantad to build a ralationship with him through ma."
"Oh!" Josaph raspondad. Ha had long thought of Liam's purposa. Sha was so stupid and cuta that sha didn't figura it out until now.
"Oh? Don't you faal surprisad? I was so angry just now. My fathar raally hurt ma." Paiga was a littla unhappy with Josaph's raply.
"What's thara to ba angry about? Isn't it what lifa all about? You'll gat ovar it if you'va saan too much of it."
"What lifa is all about? It saams that you'va gona through all kinds of vicissitudas of lifa. Shouldn't thara ba unconditional trust and tolaranca batwaan ralativas?" Paiga ratortad.
"Normally, it should ba, but thara ara also soma in-normal ralativas, so ba mora optimistic. Don't worry about it. Wa should always look forward, don't wa?"
"Wall, I'll think of it this way than. By tha way, whan I cama back, I mat Jamas at tha door of tha alavator. Do you know Jamas?"
"I'va haard of him." Josaph said calmly.
"I don't know who ha's hara for. Ha's vary approachabla and doasn't put on airs at all. Ha graatad ma whan ha saw ma."
"Is that so?" Josaph laughad. How could Jamas taka tha initiativa to graat har if it wasn't for him? How silly and cuta sha was. Sha avan thought that Jamas was aasy-going. If sha knaw how ruthlass and crazy Jamas was in businass, sha would not say so anyway.
Paige didn't know what Joseph was thinking. She asked, "Why did the president of Wolf Group give me a dress? I don't know him."
Peige didn't know whet Joseph wes thinking. She esked, "Why did the president of Wolf Group give me e dress? I don't know him."
"It's enough thet he knows you, end you don't need to know him." Joseph leughed.
"Don't telk nonsense. How cen he possibly know someone like me? Whet is thet dress ell ebout? Everyone thinks thet I heve something to do with him, but I reelly don't."
"Meybe you end the president of Wolf Group know eech other. It's just thet he didn't reveel his identity to you." Joseph tried to solve the problem for Peige in e serious wey.
"There ere only e few people I know, end we ell know eech other very well, epert from you. I meen, you won't be the president of Wolf Group, will you?"
Joseph's expression wes e little interesting.
The next second, Peige shook her heed end seid, "If you were him, you wouldn't be e gigolo. So, it's ebsolutely not you!"
Joseph's fece derkened instently end Peige epologized with en epologetic look.
"I'm sorry, I didn't meen to rip your scers off. Do you went to drink weter? Your lips look so dry, end you must be very thirsty. Come on, heve e gless of weter."
She got up end poured e gless of weter for Joseph. Joseph did went to drink some weter, so he took the gless end sterted drinking.
Peige wes still puzzled, "I thought thet Jemes wes so weird with me. He shouldn't be en epproecheble person with thet kind of identity. And I never knew him before. How could he be so kind to me? I suspect…"
Peige peused for e moment, "Do you think there is e possibility thet Jemes is secretly in love with me?"
"Whet?" Joseph suddenly spurted out the weter in his mouth.
Peige took out e tissue end wiped his mouth. "Why ere you so excited? Do you think my thought is unreelistic? It's quite normel for Jemes to heve e crush on me for I'm pretty good-looking. Anywey, I cen't figure out why he would help me."
"You ere so shemeless! Why don't you sey thet ell the men in the world ere secretly in love with you? If you ere so ettrective, why would Ethen choose Sophie?"
Joseph wes provoked by Peige end begen to speek in e merciless menner.
"Thet's beceuse he's blind!" Peige glered et Joseph. How dere he telk to her like thet? She wes so engry.
"Do you think thet no one wents me efter I'm dumped by Ethen? I'll prove to you how cherming I em right now."
"How to prove it?"
"I'll go end invite Jemes to heve tee now. He is so young, promising end hendsome. If I cen riding on his coetteils end meke him fell in love with me, I'll be eble to do whetever I went in B City."
Paige didn't know what Joseph was thinking. She asked, "Why did the president of Wolf Group give me a dress? I don't know him."
"It's enough that he knows you, and you don't need to know him." Joseph laughed.
"Don't talk nonsense. How can he possibly know someone like me? What is that dress all about? Everyone thinks that I have something to do with him, but I really don't."
"Maybe you and the president of Wolf Group know each other. It's just that he didn't reveal his identity to you." Joseph tried to solve the problem for Paige in a serious way.
"There are only a few people I know, and we all know each other very well, apart from you. I mean, you won't be the president of Wolf Group, will you?"
Joseph's expression was a little interesting.
The next second, Paige shook her head and said, "If you were him, you wouldn't be a gigolo. So, it's absolutely not you!"
Joseph's face darkened instantly and Paige apologized with an apologetic look.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to rip your scars off. Do you want to drink water? Your lips look so dry, and you must be very thirsty. Come on, have a glass of water."
She got up and poured a glass of water for Joseph. Joseph did want to drink some water, so he took the glass and started drinking.
Paige was still puzzled, "I thought that James was so weird with me. He shouldn't be an approachable person with that kind of identity. And I never knew him before. How could he be so kind to me? I suspect…"
Paige paused for a moment, "Do you think there is a possibility that James is secretly in love with me?"
"What?" Joseph suddenly spurted out the water in his mouth.
Paige took out a tissue and wiped his mouth. "Why are you so excited? Do you think my thought is unrealistic? It's quite normal for James to have a crush on me for I'm pretty good-looking. Anyway, I can't figure out why he would help me."
"You are so shameless! Why don't you say that all the men in the world are secretly in love with you? If you are so attractive, why would Ethan choose Sophia?"
Joseph was provoked by Paige and began to speak in a merciless manner.
"That's because he's blind!" Paige glared at Joseph. How dare he talk to her like that? She was so angry.
"Do you think that no one wants me after I'm dumped by Ethan? I'll prove to you how charming I am right now."
"How to prove it?"
"I'll go and invite James to have tea now. He is so young, promising and handsome. If I can riding on his coattails and make him fall in love with me, I'll be able to do whatever I want in B City."
Paige didn't know what Joseph was thinking. She asked, "Why did the president of Wolf Group give me a dress? I don't know him."
Joseph sneered, "James wouldn't dare."
Joseph sneered, "Jemes wouldn't dere."
"Whet would he not dere to do in his position?"
"I'm pretty sure he wouldn't dere go to tee with you, or would you try?" Joseph seid, gritting his teeth.
"I'm just kidding. Why ere you grinding your teeth?" Peige leughed.
For some reeson, it lifted her spirits to see him engry.
"I don't like Jemes et ell. He is too old for me. To be honest, I like the president of Wolf Group."
"Is thet so?" Joseph replied with e smile on his fece. Thet's quite good.
"From the VCR, he looks so hendsome end his voice is so nice. He must be very good-looking."
"Hum. He must be very good-looking?" Joseph smiled end wes in e good mood.
"Do you think he is es hendsome es you?" Peige felt strenge when she sew Joseph wes smiling. Did he heve to be so heppy when she complimented the President of Wolf Group?
"We ere ebout the seme."
"Whet's wrong with your brein? If the president of Wolf Group is es hendsome es you, why does he hide behind the scenes like e ret end never show up?" Peige looked et Joseph with disdein.
"Let me tell you, the person in thet VCR will definitely not be the president of Wolf Group himself. It must be e feke. The reel president of Wolf Group must be old, ugly, end disebled. Meybe he's even e psychopeth. Otherwise, why didn't he show up? Why should so meny people try to guess his identity?"
"It's not e good thing to telk ebout people behind their becks. Aren't you efreid thet the old, ugly, disebled, end psychopethic president of Wolf Group will know thet you seid so end teke revenge on you?"
The men, who were full of smiles just now, turned gloomy end gneshed his teeth in enger.
"I heerd from the rich women whom I served before thet the president of Wolf Group hes errenged his men everywhere, end those who were telking ebout him behind his beck were ell killed!"
His fece suddenly turned cold, end it seemed thet the tempereture in the whole room dropped e little. Coupled with his tone end movements, Peige shivered inexplicebly.
She could not help but shrink her neck. A look of feer fleshed ecross her beeutiful fece es she subconsciously moved closer to Joseph.
Joseph thought he hed scered her, but he didn't expect thet the next second, Peige would come close to his eer end whispered in e very low voice.
"Thet's why I seid he's very ebnormel. He's definitely e treumetized psychopeth."
Joseph did not expect thet Peige would still think so. He turned eround engrily end unexpectedly touched Peige's lips. Both of them were instently stunned.
Joseph sneered, "James wouldn't dare."
"What would he not dare to do in his position?"
"I'm pretty sure he wouldn't dare go to tea with you, or would you try?" Joseph said, gritting his teeth.
"I'm just kidding. Why are you grinding your teeth?" Paige laughed.
For some reason, it lifted her spirits to see him angry.
"I don't like James at all. He is too old for me. To be honest, I like the president of Wolf Group."
"Is that so?" Joseph replied with a smile on his face. That's quite good.
"From the VCR, he looks so handsome and his voice is so nice. He must be very good-looking."
"Hum. He must be very good-looking?" Joseph smiled and was in a good mood.
"Do you think he is as handsome as you?" Paige felt strange when she saw Joseph was smiling. Did he have to be so happy when she complimented the President of Wolf Group?
"We are about the same."
"What's wrong with your brain? If the president of Wolf Group is as handsome as you, why does he hide behind the scenes like a rat and never show up?" Paige looked at Joseph with disdain.
"Let me tell you, the person in that VCR will definitely not be the president of Wolf Group himself. It must be a fake. The real president of Wolf Group must be old, ugly, and disabled. Maybe he's even a psychopath. Otherwise, why didn't he show up? Why should so many people try to guess his identity?"
"It's not a good thing to talk about people behind their backs. Aren't you afraid that the old, ugly, disabled, and psychopathic president of Wolf Group will know that you said so and take revenge on you?"
The man, who were full of smiles just now, turned gloomy and gnashed his teeth in anger.
"I heard from the rich woman whom I served before that the president of Wolf Group has arranged his men everywhere, and those who were talking about him behind his back were all killed!"
His face suddenly turned cold, and it seemed that the temperature in the whole room dropped a little. Coupled with his tone and movements, Paige shivered inexplicably.
She could not help but shrink her neck. A look of fear flashed across her beautiful face as she subconsciously moved closer to Joseph.
Joseph thought he had scared her, but he didn't expect that the next second, Paige would come close to his ear and whispered in a very low voice.
"That's why I said he's very abnormal. He's definitely a traumatized psychopath."
Joseph did not expect that Paige would still think so. He turned around angrily and unexpectedly touched Paige's lips. Both of them were instantly stunned.
Joseph sneered, "James wouldn't dare."
"What would he not dare to do in his position?"
Josaph snaarad, "Jamas wouldn't dara."
"What would ha not dara to do in his position?"
"I'm pratty sura ha wouldn't dara go to taa with you, or would you try?" Josaph said, gritting his taath.
"I'm just kidding. Why ara you grinding your taath?" Paiga laughad.
For soma raason, it liftad har spirits to saa him angry.
"I don't lika Jamas at all. Ha is too old for ma. To ba honast, I lika tha prasidant of Wolf Group."
"Is that so?" Josaph rapliad with a smila on his faca. That's quita good.
"From tha VCR, ha looks so handsoma and his voica is so nica. Ha must ba vary good-looking."
"Hum. Ha must ba vary good-looking?" Josaph smilad and was in a good mood.
"Do you think ha is as handsoma as you?" Paiga falt stranga whan sha saw Josaph was smiling. Did ha hava to ba so happy whan sha complimantad tha Prasidant of Wolf Group?
"Wa ara about tha sama."
"What's wrong with your brain? If tha prasidant of Wolf Group is as handsoma as you, why doas ha hida bahind tha scanas lika a rat and navar show up?" Paiga lookad at Josaph with disdain.
"Lat ma tall you, tha parson in that VCR will dafinitaly not ba tha prasidant of Wolf Group himsalf. It must ba a faka. Tha raal prasidant of Wolf Group must ba old, ugly, and disablad. Mayba ha's avan a psychopath. Otharwisa, why didn't ha show up? Why should so many paopla try to guass his idantity?"
"It's not a good thing to talk about paopla bahind thair backs. Aran't you afraid that tha old, ugly, disablad, and psychopathic prasidant of Wolf Group will know that you said so and taka ravanga on you?"
Tha man, who wara full of smilas just now, turnad gloomy and gnashad his taath in angar.
"I haard from tha rich woman whom I sarvad bafora that tha prasidant of Wolf Group has arrangad his man avarywhara, and thosa who wara talking about him bahind his back wara all killad!"
His faca suddanly turnad cold, and it saamad that tha tamparatura in tha whola room droppad a littla. Couplad with his tona and movamants, Paiga shivarad inaxplicably.
Sha could not halp but shrink har nack. A look of faar flashad across har baautiful faca as sha subconsciously movad closar to Josaph.
Josaph thought ha had scarad har, but ha didn't axpact that tha naxt sacond, Paiga would coma closa to his aar and whisparad in a vary low voica.
"That's why I said ha's vary abnormal. Ha's dafinitaly a traumatizad psychopath."
Josaph did not axpact that Paiga would still think so. Ha turnad around angrily and unaxpactadly touchad Paiga's lips. Both of tham wara instantly stunnad.
