How to Get a Wife novel Chapter 48

After Joanna left, Wilson turned to look at Richard, "Sit down."

With a touch of smile appearing on his lips, Wilson's eyes became cold and deep. 'Money?' He had never planned to give that money to Richard. As a typical rich second generation, he was good at eating, drinking, gambling but had no business acumen.

"I agree with your decision of doing business. I was going to give you money, but..." Wilson spoke in a louder voice intentionally. "Recently, the Yan group is carrying on a new project. The funds are tight. I'm afraid we have to postpone your case."

Richard flew into a rage. He pointed at Wilson and asked, "did you do it on purpose?"

'The Yan group was short of money. It was obvious that he didn't want to take the money out.'

"You had wronged me. I'm not the only one to make decisions in the company. The directors all agree to develop this project. As the president, of course, I can't refuse it. I have to put the money into the new project." Then he turned on the computer and found the information sent by the financial department. "If you don't believe me, you can have a look. It's the material just received from the financial department. There is really no extra money for you to approve."

"……" When Richard looked at the data on the screen of the computer, he would have a headache. He knew how to have fun, but he didn't know how to look at the data and table.

Wilson also expected this. Therefore, he had found a piece of file for him to read casually.

"Wilson. You win." Richard left in a rage.

Wilson stared at Richard with cold smile all the time while tapping the table with her fingers. Then he turned around and stared at the papers with a deep look in his eyes.

It was the investigation material of Joanna. It was done in a short time. It only took a morning to get the information about Joanna. Above all, the files were attached photos of different ages.

The more he read, the more distressed he was.

He closed the file and rubbed his eyes. He couldn't believe that he suspected her. She had suffered so much, and she treated him that way. It was unforgivable.

But no matter how much he pitied her and wanted to protect her, he couldn't keep her by his side before he got rid of Richard.

After coming out of the office, Joanna sat in her seat, in a daze. What if Wilson really thought that she was that kind of woman if he didn't trust her all the time?

Thinking of Wilson's behaviors, she felt a little sad. Why was it so easy for Wilson to let go of everything? And why was it so easy to keep her out of his life?

When the internal phone rang, Joanna was startled. She answered it and it was an emotionless voice of Wilson.

"Miss. Joanna, please come in." Without saying anything else, he hung up the phone.

Joanna's hands and feet were cold and she was suddenly nervous.

She took a deep breath. She didn't do anything wrong. Why was she so nervous?

Joanna didn't know how she got to the office. A short walk had taken her a century.

Wilson stared at Joanna in front of him, feeling a pang of pain. He wished he could hold her into his arms right now and comfort her, but he could not do that.

"Aren't you satisfied to be an ordinary assistant?" Wilson deliberately made harsh remarks in order to let Joanna shrink back from difficulties.

"No, I didn't..." Joanna clenched her hands and bit her lower lip. Stubbornness filled her eyes.

There was only one thought in her mind: she would definitely not be fired no matter what happened.

"Then why did my brother..."

"No, I didn't..." Raising her head, Joanna stared into his eyes. The stubbornness in her eyes shocked Wilson. "I didn't do that. It was him who started it, so I slapped him back."
