Chapter 499
Joseph casually tapped his index finger on the coffee table in a rhythmic manner. Frank looked up and saw that Joseph seemed to be thinking of something.
He drank coffee and watched his actions and expression with interest.
However, Frank did not ask him what happened. Joseph held his phone and was conflicted. Combined with the conversation he had heard in the courtyard, Frank had most likely guessed that something was wrong with this non-marriage man, which meant that he might fall in love with someone.
Frank continued to drink coffee calmly. In the living room, Ava was still seriously discussing the knowledge she needed with Grace. Emma quietly listened and did not disturb them or interrupt.
After thinking for a while, Joseph sent a message. [Is the action alright? Is it going according to your thought?]
At the Yamin family.
Christina was indeed thinking about what to do and how to define an appearance other than their collaboration. Joseph’s words just now on the phone inexplicably appeared in her mind again.
Joseph’s name on her phone was a “p”, which meant that he was a man who was good at making photos with Photoshop. It was also to prevent Angie from seeing it. A single letter made her imagination run wild. Even if Angie saw it, she might think that it was a shortened name.

Christina did not sit up after reading the message. She continued to lie on the bed and typed with both hands. She replied politely. [Not bad. Your reaction speed is not slow. Have you studied how to act before?]
After reading the message, Joseph smiled. Coincidentally, this scene was seen by Frank. He smiled slightly and glanced at Joseph meaningfully. He was a little sure just now, but now he confirmed it. “He must have fallen in love with someone!” Frank thought to himself.
Joseph replied. [You can put it that way.]
Christina took a deep breath and did not continue to discuss whether Joseph was an actor. She thought for a moment and replied. [I only said to use your photo back then. Now that there’s an accident, I think the price should be increased. Just tell me how much money you
need.]
Joseph began to wonder how much money the Yamin family had. [No need. Since our previous cooperation was quite pleasant, you can treat this help as an additional gift for you.]
Christina thought, “Does he consider our partnership as the supermarket offers benefits? There’s even an additional gift.” Christina frowned as she looked at the message. She did not know how to answer. She wanted to say thanks, but she also wanted to pay. Why did she become a little conflicted? [Just should say it. I don’t like to owe people favors. That’s a separate matter.]
After sending it, Christina felt that it was better this way. Otherwise, she would not be able to figure it out.
On the other side, Joseph did not refuse. After working with Christina so many times, he naturally understood her personality. She liked to be direct, he could not do the opposite. [Alright, you are a person who keeps your word. For businessmen, send me 777 dollars later for good luck.]
Joseph thought for a while and chose this price.
Christina was not a pretentious person and readily agreed. [Alright, you can set the price. Don’t say that I’m stingy and will settle the score in the future.]
Joseph replied. [No, Ms Yamin, you can rest assured.]
After the discussion, Christina admired Joseph from the bottom of her heart. He was not annoying and was sensible. He was not greedy and his reaction speed was not slow. He was definitely good-looking.
She placed her phone on the side of the bed and crossed her arms behind her head. She stared at the white ceiling.
At night,
After taking a shower, Ava lay on the bed with the book given by Grace in her hand. She read it seriously and flipped through the pages.
At night, Ava didn’t even have time to look through the snacks that Joseph bought for her. Frank placed the snacks on a small table. He had already checked the snacks that Joseph bought. They were all the young girl’s favorites. Even Rose’s snacks were prepared by Joseph.
Frank came out of the bathroom with a white towel wrapped around him. He felt a little defeated. Ava was devoted to her career and began to ignore some things. He lifted the blanket and sat down. He pulled off the towel and threw it on the carpet.
His bare chest, smooth skin, and abdominal muscles on his chest were neatly arranged. However, the girl who was reading
seriously did flot even turn her head. Frank felt defeated again. “Baby Ava, what are you reading?”
Ava was looking at something interesting and couldn’t bear to look away. “What? It’s the book Grace gave me. I think the book Grace gave me is a treasure. After reading it, I want to continue reading it for five minutes. Wash…”
Ava didn’t want to ignore Frank. As soon as she looked up, she saw a man with hormones. His upper body was naked, and when he moved his legs, he realized that under the blanket was also…
She smiled and did not feel awkward. She closed the book and said sweetly, “Frank, you have taken a shower. Have you been working out recently? Your abs seem to have become firmer again.”
Frank’s back stiffened. He did not say about her minor course, nor did he ask her why she wanted to read the book Grace gave her. He just treated it as if she liked to read. He indulged the little girl as she climbed onto his lap. She hooked her arms around his neck and sat restlessly.
The temperature in the room was moderate, and Ava had a wicked smile on her face. She touched Frank’s body with her slender fingers, and she kept counting his abs. When her fingertips touched his skin, it was the beginning of a challenge, and it was full of provocation.
His willpower was not bad.
Ava played for a few minutes, but Frank was still very calm. The little girl was unhappy and pouted. She thought, “Why doesn’t Frank miss me after such a long time? Why is he so calm?”
