My Weak Wife Is a Real Goddess novel Chapter 229

Buy It 

Joseph’s gaze was endlessly deep. 

Staring at the storage box that Lucille had handed him, he was stunned for a few seconds before regaining his senses. 

If he remembered correctly, Lone Shadow had bought that box after specifically telling the driver to stop on their way back to Niterol City’s airport when they finished their mission. 

There was a Deep Lotus in the storage box. 

Joseph stretched out his hand. In order to verify his suspicions, he opened the lid of the storage box without hesitation. 

Water vapor filled the room, and a Deep Lotus was lying in it. 

Because it had been carefully taken care of, the lotus was well preserved, and 

it was still fresh and beautiful. 

All of a sudden, memories from that afternoon surfaced in Joseph’s mind. 

In the remote and uninhabited wilderness, Lone Shadow, who was sitting in the back of the off–road vehicle, suddenly yelled at the driver to stop. Then, she climbed over the stone bridge and jumped into the lake without hesitation just to get the Deep Lotus. 

She was drenched and looked like a total mess. 

When he offered to pay for the Deep Lotus, Lonely Shadow refused without hesitation, saying that the flower was very important to her and that she could not give it to him. 

It turned out that the lotus was picked for him. 

Joseph was a little dazed. Lucille and Lone Shadow’s slender figures overlapped in front of him. Gradually, they became one person in his mind. 

It turned out that Lucille was Lone Shadow, and Lone Shadow was Lucille. 

No wonder he found Lone Shadow a little familiar the first time he saw her. 

So that’s how it was. 

A cluster of flames ignited in Joseph’s heart. When he thought of how Lucille had plunged into the water to pluck the Deep Lotus for him, the fire in his heart. blazed brighter. 

Lucille’s face was full of confusion. 

She saw Joseph’s constantly changing expressions and could tell that his eyes were full of emotions. There was a light shining in his gaze, but it was hidden so deeply that no one could figure out what he was thinking. 

What was going on? 

Why was he suddenly looking at her as if he was going to eat her? 

Lucille subconsciously took a step back. However, Joseph immediately reached out and held her firmly in his arms. 

“Hey!” Lucille was furious. She couldn’t help but push him away. “Joseph, -you’re breaking the rules!” 

When they made an agreement, there were various terms written in the third clause. They had agreed that when they were in private and there was no need to put on an act in front of others, they would not engage in any physical 

contact. 

However, he had violated the rules time and time again. 

Lucille was exerting quite a bit of strength, but Joseph didn’t budge at all. 

His arms were like iron pliers, firmly locking onto her waist. It was impossible. for her to get out of his grip. 

The warmth from his palm came in waves, and the air around him seemed to be a little ambiguous. 

Lucille wanted to curse, but at that moment, she heard Joseph whisper in her 

ear, “I’m sorry.” 

If he was sorry, then why wouldn’t he let go of her? 

She angrily retorted, “Joseph. I spent a lot of money to get this lotus. Pay up!” 

“Okay.” 

Joseph had finally let go of Lucille, but the amusement in his eyes and the 

smile on the corners of his mouth remained the same. 

He was apologizing because when she jumped into the water to pluck the Deep Lotus, all he had done was give her his jacket as a show of civility. 

In the end… he even allowed her to throw the jacket away because he didn’t want to touch any clothes that had been touched by another woman. 

If he had known that Lonely Shadow was Lucille, he would not have been willing to let her suffer from the cold. 

Lucille froze for a moment. Under the burning gaze of Joseph, she was almost immediately defeated. “I’m going to eat. Take your time.” 

After that, Lucille turned around and went downstairs. 

In the dining room, a sumptuous dinner was prepared on the table. 

Overwhelming Aroma 

Lucille’s index finger twitched. When she recalled a certain someone’s horrible. attitude, Lucille decided not to wait for him. Thus, she told Molly to sit down. and immediately began to eat. 

She was absolutely starving. 

Everything else aside, the private chef’s cooking skills were top–notch. Even boiled vegetables could look appetizing and delicious, not to mention the ribs and braised pork. The food melted the moment it made contact with her tongue, and it had an overwhelming aroma. 

Having been around Lucille for so long, it was the first time that Madam Dahlia saw her eat so much. It was as if she had been starved for days. She could not help but plead, “Slow down, Miss Jules. You’re going to choke.” 

Lucille nodded. 

At that moment, Joseph, who had changed into a new set of clothes, sat down 

across from Lucille. 

He looked at her calmly and thoughtfully poured a cup of warm water before pushing it in front of her. 

Lucille viciously cut the steak that had just been served in front of her. The murderous way she did so made Joseph laugh. 

She was holding a grudge against him. 

After finishing the sumptuous meal, Lucille went upstairs. Just as she was about to close the door to sleep, a pair of clean and slender hands reached out to stop her from closing the door. 

She stilled. 

Lucille looked at him. There was a silent question in her gaze, asking if he had something to say. 

Joseph chuckled. He handed Lucille a cup of ginger tea and said, “Have a cup of this tea to clean your palate.” Most importantly, it would stop her from catching a cold. 

Lucille refused decisively. “I don’t like ginger tea.” 

“It’s not spicy. It’s not that bad at all. Try ” 

There was a smile in Joseph’s eyes. He find no intention of forcing her, but Lucille knew that if she didn’t drink it, he would probably stay there forever. 

Lucille took the cup and gulped it down. 

It was just as Joseph had said. Indeed, it wasn’t that bad. Although it carried. the spice of ginger, the sweet taste diluted the bitterness of it. 

It worked so well that her stomach and body started to warm up.
