The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 142

"Abbie, I thought you hate him. Why are you pitying him now?"

"Hating him is one thing, but his background stories are still real, you know? I heard that he was sent abroad when he was very young. Joseph has always been very smart. He graduated with three degrees when he wasn’t even 20 years old. The university he graduated from is a top-tier university. Later, Charles found that things were not going well and he tried to lure him into doing bad things…”

"Alright, stop right there. Your brother told you all of these, right? I'm sure he just wants to brainwash you," Paige cut Abbie off.

Abbie was stunned for a moment, "Oh yeah! My brother must have wanted to defend Joseph... That's ridiculous. Alright, let's not talk about him anymore. Our food is here, let's just eat."

In another private room, Joseph walked over to Hayden with a smile and sat down beside him, "Dad, I've asked them to prepare some dishes that you like. You should eat more later when food is served."

Hayden smiled as he looked at Joseph, who was very handsome. It was such a pleasant sight the more Hayden looked at Joseph. He said, "Uh, you still remember what I like to eat. You're so much better than those brothers of yours."

"Well, it's still your money that is being spent. I'm just benefitting from it while trying to be a good son."

"Ha... This boy!" Hayden laughed heartily. He couldn't find anything wrong with Joseph at all other than being a playboy who didn't have a loyal heart.

Thinking of what Charles and Ethan had told him in the morning, he said tentatively, "Joseph, you're not young anymore, you should stop fooling around. Also, you should concentrate on your career and having a family."

"Oh, sure!" Joseph responded directly.

Hayden's heart thumped. It was because Joseph would always find excuses every time Hayden mentioned marriage. But this time he actually agreed. Did he really fall for Paige? C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

The old man was worried and asked with a straight face, "When will you bring your girlfriend to meet me?"

"Hm, not so soon," Joseph replied.

"Well, can I know her name?"

"Nope," Joseph poured himself a cup of tea.

"Dad, why are you in such a hurry? With such a handsome face and a good temper like mine, it's a piece of cake for me to get married and have kids."

"That's true. But you should look for those who are from good family backgrounds. I don't like messy or complicated women."

"Don't worry, I'll pick out a wife according to your preference. I promise I'll bring a good and pure girl back."

These words made Hayden felt much more at ease. Paige had been with Ethan for several years, and her pregnancy was all over the place. She was definitely not a pure woman. From the looks of it, Joseph was just playing around. So Hayden decided not to bring it up.

The dishes they ordered were quickly served.

Sure enough, they were all Hayden's favourite dishes. Joseph was all smiles as he served Hayden with dishes and soup.

Hayden was in a good mood and he ate a lot more than usual. After lunch, Joseph wanted to help Hayden get up.

But right at this time, his cell phone rang.

Aiden's voice came, "Joseph, where are you?"

"I'm having lunch in Wolf Group. What's up?"

"What's up? Don't tell me you're still kept in the dark about something as huge as this? I'm telling you, you've been framed and it is really... ugly. The news mentioned that you stole someone else's girlfriend and that you're unruly. How did I not know you have done that? Don't tell me it's your brother, his wife and Ethan's doing!"

Aiden's voice was very loud. Joseph was holding Hayden at this time, so Hayden heard it clearly.

Joseph actually did it on purpose. After waiting for Aiden to finish speaking, he let go of Hayden and

walked over to the side, "It's fine, I'm used to it. It's just a small matter, so don't worry about it. I'll talk to you later."

Then, he hung up the phone and looked at Hayden as if nothing had happened. "Dad, let's go!"
