After the Sister May left, Larissa's entire body sank into a state of fear and unease. She stumbled out of the chair and ran into her bedroom and took out her luggage, wanting to pack her things and quickly leave.
When she threw her clothes into the box, she stopped moving. Finally, she sat down on the floor in pain and worry. One of her hands supported her forehead; she was extremely pessimistic.
"I can't escape. Even if I run to the ends of the earth, I won't be able to escape from them." That Sister May was even more ruthless than Barry. Since she had personally come to threaten, then it meant that she had made all the preparations and would not let her easily escape.
"Do I have to fight to the death?" Larissa muttered to herself as she hopelessly looked out the window at the night sky.
Just as Larissa's face was ashen, Edwards had already pulled out an encrypted phone to give Joseph, and chat with him about the information he had.
"Larissa? Who is she?" Joseph was currently standing in front of the window in the Grant family's second floor bedroom, staring out of it like a cold moon. The winter night was dark, like a giant net that could swallow people whole.
"I'm not sure either. I've investigated her information and she's pretty innocent, but she's obviously a trap set up for me by the Old President. You should find someone to watch over her; maybe you'll get something out of it." Edwards replied calmly.
"Alright, I will find someone to watch her closely. Since she is someone arranged by Old President, you should be careful too. I'm afraid that this woman is a beauty who would bite, so don't be fooled." Joseph's tone was a little joking. After all, they were both men. The saddest thing for a man is that the beauty.
With regards to women, you don't have to worry about me. On the other hand, I heard that you are soon going to be engaged to that big miss of the Miller Family. Edwards also ridiculed him.
"I only have one thought, marry her!" Joseph's tone became more serious.
"Is that so? Who said that they would think of a way to reject the marriage?" Edwards laughed and joked.
“Edwards, I'm really going to beg you to be lenient with your words. I also did not expect that I would arrive at my current stage. I didn't expect that I would fall in love with her.” Joseph also started to mock himself. Of course, he was still very happy in his heart.
"If you fall in, don't even think about out of the love. She's definitely a good girl; otherwise, it's not worth it for you to think about her day and night." When Edwards said the first sentence, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Can't we still have a good chat? Your words make me blush, what do you mean by 'can't pull it out'? You make it sound like I'm very shameless." Joseph was speechless.
"Don't men like to chat more directly? You can still blush? I really want to see it." Edwards laughed even more complacently.
"I really should ask my sister—in—law to control your mouth properly. Otherwise, if I go out and take liberties with other women, I will definitely play one game after another." Joseph was even bigger than Edwards, which was why he called himself sister—in—law.
"No, no, no, you definitely can't tell her. She's a coward, she'll definitely argue with me for half a day." Joseph had accurately had been found his shortcoming, causing him to no longer dare to joke around.
"Heh. Young Master Wayne is indeed a good husband's role model. After I get married, I'll have to learn more from you. " Joseph finally turned the tables on him and had the chance to tease him.
"Alright, we'll share this problem when you get married." Edwards laughed heartily.
After hanging up, Joseph called his assistant, Warren, and told him to keep an eye on this woman.
Joseph went downstairs and saw his sister sitting cross—legged on the sofa eating snacks, giggling at the male lead in the TV series.
"How's your homework? I heard you did your homework in a mess." Joseph was still considered to be a very dutiful brother, since young, he had started to take advantage of his younger sister's studies. However, since they were both children of the Grant family, the gap between the two of them was extremely large.
"No, I passed all my exams this year!" Wendy immediately said confidently.
