Burning Love Cute Husband and His Little Wife-Chapter 23
23 Damn It
The envelope was thin, and she couldn’t know what was inside. Isabella opened it curiously.
It was actually a check for a million.
“No. I can’t take Grandpa’s money.”
Isabella immediately returned the check to the envelope.
“It’s just pocket money.” Charlie narrowed his eyes and smiled, “As my grandson’s girlfriend, it’s normal for grandfather to give her some pocket money.”
The Demon Isabella:
‘So much money! So much money! Isabella, take it!’
‘Take this and you could immediately buy a big house and take you mother out of the pit of Hell. Then, you would no longer be restrained by the Smith family and be beaten up every day!’
The Angel Isabella:
.....
‘No! No! No gains without pains. If you took this, you would definitely have to pay the price!’
The Demon Isabella:
‘It was okay! You didn’t lose her self-esteem or something!’
‘You made the old man happy with your sweet words! This is what you deserve!’
The Angel Isabella:
‘No, Isabella! You can’t accept undeserved gift!’
In an instant, the angels and devils in Isabella’s mind were fighting.
Joseph clasped his hands and looked coldly at Isabella. He could see some clues from her subtle expression, so he deliberately said, “Grandpa wanted you to have it. Just take it.”
Isabella glanced at Joseph’s strange expression and was even surer that the money was problem. She pushed the check onto the coffee table and forced a smile, “Dear, don’t you know me? Help me persuade Grandpa to take it back.”
A teasing look flashed across Joseph’s eyes. “Know you? That’s right. Don’t you like money? What if you regret it later?”
“...”
Isabella pursed her lips. ‘Joseph, damn it. I’m doing this for you and you were not helping!’
“Since that’s the case, then how about...”
Isabella picked up the check and smiled sweetly. She handed it to the old waiter beside Charlie and said politely, “Sir, I don’t know what Grandpa likes. Can you help me buy some delicious snacks for him? This is a gift from me.”
The old waiter was stunned as he looked at Charlie.
Charlie slowly revealed a smile from his serious face.
A moment later, Charlie’s hearty laughter burst out in the hall, “Great! I understand! You’re not going to receive favors casually and take money from others. You are really a smart and sensible girl! I know that Isabella is different from everyone else, as expected!”
As expected, the man in charge of the Wilson Consortium can’t be a common grandfather. He was shrewdly testing her.
Fortunately, the Angel won just now. Otherwise, she would be labeled as “greedy” or “mercenary”.
The Wilsons were all shrewd!
“Since it’s Isabella’s gift, William, you can keep it.”
Charlie smiled and stood up, “Joseph, take Isabella on a grand tour of the house and gardens. I’ll go change my clothes first and then eat with Isabella later!”
“Yes!”
“Grandpa, slow down.”
Isabella and Joseph stood up together and respectfully watched Charlie leave.
“I really underestimated you. My grandfather was very satisfied with you.”
As soon as Charlie went upstairs, Joseph sat back on the sofa and crossed his legs. The caring gentleman instantly became cold and evil.
Isabella used her thumb and index finger to show a small distance and counterattacked, “No, I’m still a bit shorter than you. Mr. Joseph, if you don’t inherit your family business, you can still support yourself by acting.”
Joseph said disdainfully, “You were actually tempted by that check for a million just now, weren’t you? You were so excited that your eyes nearly turned red.”
Isabella did not expect Joseph to be so observant. She retorted with some embarrassment, “What’s wrong with my expression? Who doesn’t like money? But I know what could be taken and what shouldn’t be taken!”
“My grandfather is very rich. It doesn’t matter whether you take it or not.” Joseph propped up his chin and glanced at Isabella, “Because he doesn’t care at all.”
Isabella became excited, “If I did take it, wouldn’t you take it back?”
Then, she excitedly pulled on Joseph’s sleeve and said, “Mr. Joseph, I’ll flatter Master Wilson later. Can you cooperate with me?”
Joseph looked at Isabella’s excited little face. A hint of playfulness suddenly flashed across his eyes. He reached out to grab Isabella’s waist, leaned over to her ear, and whispered, “Of course, but in return, let’s have sex.”
“...”
Isabella forcefully pushed Joseph away and glared at him angrily, “Joseph! You’re really bad!”
“Good merchants never do business at a loss.”
“You...”
Just as Isabella was about to explode, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Charlie coming downstairs. She immediately slammed her head into Joseph’s embrace and said coquettishly, “What nonsense! Don’t say that!”
Joseph was caught off guard by this powerful collision, almost bleeding on the spot. He knew that Isabella was intentionally retaliating against him, so he angrily pinched her waist.
However, he still smiled gently. “Isabella only likes to hear sweet words? That’s not a good habit.” 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m
“I just want to listen to sweet words!”
Isabella endured the pain and hooked Joseph’s tie with her hand. Joseph was immediately strangled and his face nearly turned purple. f𝔯𝒆𝚎𝚠𝑒𝚋𝓃૦νℯƖ.co𝘮
“You two are really sweet. Come over and eat.”
Charlie did not see them secretly pinching each other. He smiled and instructed, “William, serve the food! Today, we will properly welcome Isabella!”
“Yes!”
Joseph and Isabella rolled their eyes at each other.
The Wilson family was indeed worthy of being called the richest family in the world. For lunch, they had prepared dozens of delicious dishes from the chefs of the six countries, making Isabella’s horizons open wide.
She really wished she could finish all of them!
However, the stern and disdainful gaze from Joseph from time to time told her...
She had to maintain her demeanor! She could only taste little for every single one of them!
Throughout the lunchtime, Charlie was very happy and chatted happily with Isabella.
Joseph interposed from time to time with faint smile. At first glance, he looked like a prince with a noble aura.
In front of Charlie, he really was a good grandson with good manners.
An hour later, the sumptuous lunch finally ended. Charlie went upstairs for a break, while Isabella changed back into her casual clothes and prepared to rush back to school.
“Miss Isabella, do you want to bring some dessert to school?”
William Wood was a butler dressed in a black swallow-tailed deacon uniform. His short gray hair was combed meticulously.
At this time, he held the pink double-decker food box and smiled. “I saw that you liked this very much at lunch. If you don’t mind, how about taking the rest for afternoon snacks?”
“I can really take these?”
Instantly, Isabella felt a splendid firework burning in her heart. She was so happy and said excitedly, “Thank you so much, William. I really like these snacks. They are works of art!”
Joseph was sitting on the sofa looking at the information handed over by his subordinate. Hearing the conversation between Isabella and William, he couldn’t help but raise his head.
At a glance, he saw Isabella’s enthusiastic and flattering excitement.
“The Wilson Manor is under my name. Isabella, did you get my permission to take my things?” Joseph suddenly felt annoyed and interrupted.
