A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband novel Chapter 163

Chapter 163 

Sawle Group, in the president’s office. 

Having just finished a high-level meeting, Joseph leaned back on the leather chair, unable to hide the tiredness in his eyes. 

The matter between him and Grace must have already spread throughout the Sawle Group, but no one in this building dared to gossip about Joseph. 

Unless, he wanted to die. 

Having attained the position of Deputy Director of the Board of Directors, he was now fully deserving of his title of power. 

But why was his mood especially heavy, without a trace of pleasure? 

“I didn’t expect that Aubree would have the ability to block Brown Group’s hole. It seems that she is a gold digger. She has consumed a lot of money. Hmph, then let her bleed properly this time.” As long as Max saw Aubree suffer a loss, he felt extremely comfortable. 

“Previously, it was Alan who helped her collect money. Now that Alan went in, she could still take out tens of millions of dollars. It can be seen that there is a way to collect money behind her.” Joseph’s starry eyes were half-closed, and there was a cold glint in them. 

“Could it be… that Essence Shop called EV?” 

Max was shocked and asked in disbelief, “Mr. Sawle, that ordinary Essence Shop really has such a huge money-absorbing ability behind it? Isn’t it just selling bags and clothes? How much money can it sell for if it goes to the dead?” 

“You have been with me for so many years, why are you still so naive?” 

Joseph frowned, picked up a paper plane that he had folded before and threw it accurately on Max’s chest. “Behind the premium product shop is a huge underground network of Medo that Aubree spent several years building.” 

“She sold luxury goods in the open, secretly sold fame and profit, and even darker transactions, which were uncountable.” 

“This old witch, we have really underestimated her!” Max shivered. 

“I have never looked down on her. If she is an enemy, I can not look down on her.” 

Joseph rubbed his tall nose and smiled coldly. “But it is not a day to deal with Aubree. She has deep roots in Medo and is protected by Jake. It is not the right time to touch her now. There is not enough evidence.” 

“Walking often by the river, how can she not wet her shoes? There is still a lot of time for us.” 

Max nodded bitterly. “That’s right! Sooner or later, we will release that old witch’s blood to worship the heavens!” 

“How is the follow-up of Ada Wang’s project?” Joseph changed the topic and asked indifferently. 

“Our team’s wedding plan has been revised and can meet up with Ada Wang’s team at any time.” 

Max paused, then carefully probed, “That… Mr. Sawle, didn’t you say that you wanted to compensate Young Madam? This is a good opportunity to compensate!” 

Why don’t you just give the right to Ada Wang’s wedding to KS WORLD? I think Young Madam will definitely… 

“Why should I give it to KS WORLD?” 

“I owe Chloe and I don’t owe KS. Why should I give the opportunity to Thorp Group?” Joseph looked at him coldly. 

Max felt awkward. “…” 

Really, f*cking logic! 

“She said that when we get to the business arena, we have to take out 100 of our abilities to compete with her. If I go easy on her now, won’t I look down on her?” 

The man lowered his eyelashes again and said coldly, “Prepare as you should. In the business arena, I can not do anything to lower my bottom line and destroy my principles because of anyone.” 

I’m not Jerome. 

Max blinked in confusion. 

‘Why did it feel like there was a sour taste in Boss’ words?’ 

At this time, the phone on the table vibrated and Vincent called. 

“What is it?” Joseph asked expressionlessly. 

“Joseph, I got a VIP ticket for the famous pianist — concert. Let’s go and watch it together!” Vincent was full of interest at the 

other end. 

“You’re going to listen to music? Can a donkey understand people playing the zither?” Joseph teased without hiding anything. 

“Tsk, I can understand you. Why can’t I understand music?” 

Vincent had been used to it all these years. He accepted it calmly and learned to laugh at himself. “Let’s go, let’s go. I’ll pick you up at Sawle Group’s building later.” 

“I’m not going.” 

“What are you doing? Close the door and lick your wounds? A single Grace beat you to this extent. Why are you not used to wearing a green hat for so many years?” Vincent took the opportunity to mock him. 

“Don’t confuse me with Grace. Don’t disgust me anymore. I’m hanging up.” Joseph frowned with disgust. 

“Wait, wait a minute!” 

Vincent really had no choice but to tell the truth, “Alas, Zoey came back from studying abroad in Puplen. She is the favorite student of Christian. Tonight, she will perform on stage as a guest at Christian’s concert.” 

“Originally, I wanted to give you a surprise. I didn’t expect you to not give me any face at all. They are all romantic to death. When it comes to you, you are romantic and must die. Romantic allergy!” 

Zoey was Vincent’s sister, the little girl that Joseph watched as she grew up. 

It was said that the elder brother was like a father, and Vincent doted on his only sister. The devil nature of his sister was no less than that of Oscar and the others towards Chloe. 

Therefore, Joseph thought for a moment and compromised, “Come and pick me up.” 

Night fell, in Medo National Music Hall. 

Vincent had already bought a private room on the second floor, the best viewing spot, and was ready to take a look at his sister’s elegant demeanor. 

Not only that, he had already ordered people to set up a “cannon” here. At this moment, he was playing with the camera in high spirits, wanting to take a picture of his sister’s entire performance. 

Joseph sat at the side, his heaven-defying long legs lazily overlapping, looking at Young Master Anderson, who was more, professional than the paparazzi. 

“The organizers of this kind of performance will record the entire process, and will carve it into a treasured disk to give to the performance guests. Your two brushes, don’t embarrass yourself.” 

“You heartless spinach, you don’t understand! Your biological brother took a picture full of affection. How can it be the same 

as the official one?” 

Just as Vincent adjusted the angle of the camera. 

Suddenly, his phoenix eyes widened and he shouted, “Chloe is here too? I didn’t make a mistake, did I?” 

“Who was the man next to her? Why was his face so white? Does he have kidney deficiency?” 

Joseph’s heart trembled violently. He quickly stood up and impatiently grabbed the edge of the railing. 

He saw that on the opposite side of the VIP room stands, Chloe and Jerome both sat down. The two of them not only looked at each other tacitly, but also laughed! 

On the other side, Chloé completely did not notice that there were two jars of vinegar that she had knocked over. 

There were few people on the second floor and the cold air was also full. Chloe only wore a thin dark green French dress. At this moment, there were already some chicken skin on her arm. 

Jerome’s gaze landed on her exposed skin. His dark eyes narrowed slightly as he took off his suit jacket. He got up and knelt down on one knee in front of her. 

“Fourth Young Master, you are…” Chloe’s almond-shaped eyes were slightly startled. 

The next second, he covered her slender and straight legs with his suit jacket. 

“If your legs don’t feel cold, then your body won’t feel cold anymore.” 

Jerome raised his face to meet her surprised eyes, and his thin lips curved into a beautiful arc. “I originally wanted you to wear it on your body, but the dress you wear today is really beautiful. It reminds me of the charming siren in ancient Greek mythology. 

I don’t want to cover up your beauty. 

Chloe took a deep breath, and her white toes uncomfortably curved in her high heels.
