A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23 

When Joseph returned to the Mazeland, his whole body was wet as if he had been fished out of the sea. 

Aunt Gill hurriedly came over to wipe him, but he slowly pushed away the towel in her hand and walked upstairs with anger all over his body. 

“Young, what’s wrong with Young Master? Who offended him?” Aunt Gill asked Max with concern. 

“When you have time later, please comfort Mr. Sawle. He has been deceived!” 

“Ah? Young Master is more clever than a ghost than can be deceived Then have you called the police? Hurry up and call the police!” Aunt Gill was very frightened. 

Max shook his head repeatedly, “Yes, alas, it is useless for the police to come for such complicated cases.” 

“I told Young Master to set up an anti–fraud app a long time ago. He didn’t listen to me. If he often walked by the river, his shoes would get wet!” 

Max smiled bitterly. This time, Mr. Sawle had met his match. 

It was easy to deceive money, but the key was to deceive President Sawle’s self–esteem! 

… 

Joseph walked upstairs with a pale face. At first glance, he really looked like a handsome male ghost. 

“Second Young Master, Miss Brown is here. The chairman invites you to the study.” The servant came over and reported respectfully. 

Joseph pursed his thin lips into a straight line and went to Jake’s study 

room. 

“Brother Joseph! You’re finally back!” When Grace saw that Joseph was like a spider demon that had seen meat, she immediately ran over and hugged him. 

Joseph’s eyes were calm, and he did not immediately respond to her hug like before. 

When he encountered Grace tonight, a feeling of ineffable sadness_rose up in his heart.

“Joseph, how is the matter going? Did you see President Thorp today?” Jake asked seriously. 

The dignified chairman of Sawle Group, being very busy every day, found this small matter not worthy of his time to ask about it repeatedly. 

It was just that he could not stand Aubree blowing pillow wind for him every day, so he had to come out to pressure Joseph. 

“I think with Joseph here, he will definitely protect Grace’s family. After all, Joseph loves Grace the most. As long as he comes out to talk to that Miss Thorp, how can Thorp Group not give him face?” 

“Sawle Group is also not a small family. If they offend us, Thorp Group will never have a good end in Medo!” Aubree held her husband’s arm and snorted angrily. 

This was a trick she had used for twenty years. She had always used flattery on Joseph. First, she raised him up and praised him vigorously, making everyone’s expectations of him fill up. 

In this way, as long as he did something wrong, he could attract Jake’s resentment and provoke the relationship between them. 

“Dad, Aunt Bell, let’s end the matter with Brown Group.” Joseph’s dark eyes, which were deep in his eyes, did not show any emotion. 

“Joseph, what do you mean by this?” Jake frowned. 

“From now on, I won’t help Brown Group again. That’s it.” 

After saying that, Joseph turned around and walked out without looking back. 

He left Jake, Aubree, and Grace in the same place, looking stunned. 

“J, Jake, is Joseph joking?” Aubree’s smile gradually became stiff, and her heart was in a mess. 

Jake’s face darkened, but he did not say anything. 

Joseph went back to the bedroom wet. He was not in the mood to change his clothes and take a bath. His mind was full of the things that he had been played by Chloe! 

Chloe, why don’t you come out to see me in person? 

Are you ashamed, or am I, Joseph, unworthy 

“Brother Joseph! Why!? Why are you not willing to help us!?” 

A Billion–Rich Woman Was Chased by Her Ex–Husband 

Grace was desperate, “Now that all the orders have been withdrawn, the goods are all in the warehouse and are going to rot. If we can’t pay the workers, we, Brown Group, will go bankrupt!” 

Right now, all she wanted to do was save her own family, and she no longer had the virtuous appearance she usually had. 

“It’s getting late. I’ll ask Max to send you back.” Joseph’s voice was full of fatigue. 

“Brother Joseph! What exactly happened that made you change your mind? Can you tell me? Tell me quickly!” 

Joseph had been struggling for an entire day, and he was so tired that het cherished his words like gold. Moreover, how should he tell her the reason? Could it be that he wanted to tell her that his brother had 

committed a sin? 

Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. 

The box that was originally placed at his bedside with a suit had disappeared without a trace! 

Joseph pried open Grace’s hand and walked around the bedroom in large strides. With a sullen face, he shouted, 

“Aunt Gill!” 

“Yes, Young Master.” Aunt Gill hurried over. 

“I put it on the bed. Where is the box with the suit?” Joseph asked anxiously. 

“I didn’t move! You told me that you can’t move the things Young Madam gave you when cleaning your room.” 

“And today, Miss Brown came to your room. I also specially told her that Young Master cares about the box at the bedside. You must not touch it.” As she spoke, Aunt Gill glanced at the resentful Grace. 

She called Raya Young Madam in front of her to stimulate her and force her to tell the truth. 

“I threw the box.” As expected, Grace couldn’t keep her cool. 

“Where did you throw it?” Joseph looked angry. 

“Brother Joseph, why do you care so much about what Raya gave you? You have already divorced. Your current fiancee is me!” 

“You left the things she gave to me like a treasure. Have you ever thought about my feelings?” 

Tears welled up in Grace’s eyes. She had been trained by her aunt to the point of perfection. 

“I’ll ask you again, where did you throw it?” 

In the end, Joseph ignored Grace’s tears. His tone was colder than before, shocking her to the point that she forgot to cry. 

“In, in the garbage bin in the backyard…” 

Joseph ran to the backyard in the rain, rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt, and rummaged in the garbage bin for the discarded box. 

“Brother Joseph! Don’t go, it’s so dirty!” Grace stood in the corridor and called him. 

Dirty? 

Perhaps no one in the entire Sawle family knew that when he was an illegitimate child and his mother was wandering outside, he was only five years old. In order to survive, he went through countless garbage boxes just to collect some waste paper shells and cans that could be sold. 

He, Joseph, grew up in a garbage dump. He was too familiar with this. kind of filth. There was nothing to hide. 

Finally, Joseph found the dirty box and sighed in relief. 

At this time, Aunt Gill ran over to help him hold the umbrella. He couldn’t wait to open the box. 

The next second, his eyes were red and his face was black to the bottom. 

He saw that the originally ironed, spotless suit was cut into pieces and was beyond recognition! 

He looked back at Grace inch by inch. 

Grace retreated step by step, frightened by this cold and unfamiliar gaze. 

In the end, Joseph just held the box and silently passed by Grace. 

“Brother Joseph! Do you like Raya? Do you regret divorce” Grace gathered up her courage and hugged the man tightly.
