Chapter 109

109 Confess When He Had Fever

“What happened?” Isabella asked, “Why shall we evacuate from here? It’s terrifying.”

“Mr. Joseph is a devil when he has a fever. He might lose his mind.”

William explained, “He might smash things, tear things up, curse people, or even hit people. Therefore, even though you want to take care of Mr. Joseph, I still ask you to leave.”

“I understand! I don’t want to be hurt!”

Sure enough, Joseph was a complete devil. Even if he was sick, he was still a trouble-maker. Before William could finish his words, Isabella had already rushed to the attached building, as if Joseph was chasing after her.

William was shocked.

William looked at Isabella, who was running faster than a rabbit, and frowned, “Didn’t she ask to help Mr. Joseph just now? What changed her mind?”

Before he could finish speaking, Isabella returned while everyone retreated. William was moved and said, “Miss Isabella, you couldn’t leave Mr. Joseph alone after all.”

“I left my bag upstairs! All my belongings are in there!”

.....

Isabella rushed upstairs and said, “Don’t close the door! Wait for me!”

William didn’t see this coming.

The bag that Isabella was looking for contained 10,000. To be exact, it was less than 10,000.

If she recalled correctly, she casually threw it on the bed because she was in a bad mood when she came back last night.

‘Although she didn’t know what Joseph would become when he had a fever, she was still afraid that he would destroy her cash? With his bad character, would he compensate her when he woke up?’

‘He wouldn’t do it.’

So the thought of defending the cash made Isabella return hurriedly.

If she remembered correctly, Joseph was in his bedroom now. So as long as she was fast, there shouldn’t be any problems.

Isabella sneaked into Joseph’s bedroom carefully and opened the door to her bedroom.

The room was pitch-black, and nothing could be seen except moonlight that shone through the gap between two curtains.

Isabella didn’t dare to turn on the light, and she was afraid that something would attract the attention of Joseph in the next room. So she knelt on the ground and carefully crept into the room.

“It should be at the left corner of the bed.”

Isabella smoothly reached for her bag. She took it with her mouth, and climbed towards the door.

“Shoot! It’s stuck.”

Isabella thought that the bag strap was stuck, so she leaned over and groped around.

‘Warm and soft. What was it?’

“Wow.”

Before Isabella could react and turn around to escape, Joseph rolled off the bed and directly landed on her.

Isabella screamed, “Joseph, why are you in my room?!”

Before she finished speaking, Joseph unbuttoned her blouse and buried his face around her neck, enjoying the scent of her body.

Isabella was shocked. Just as she was about to call Joseph a pervert, Joseph bit her on the shoulder.

“What are you doing?”

Isabella suddenly recalled the rumors that William had said earlier about Joseph going crazy when he had a fever. So she immediately screamed, “William! Help! Joseph is starting to go crazy!”

Isabella’s mouth was instantly shut by Joseph, but he didn’t kiss her. He didn’t flirt with her and kissed her romantically.

Instead, he bit her lips.

‘It hurt so much.’

The salty blood went into the two people’s mouths. His crazy behavior of biting and kissing made Isabella cry out in fear.

Unfortunately, the sound was completely drowned out. Only a tiny bit of sound could be heard around her throat.

Isabella kicked and scratched him fiercely. Finally, she swung her bag over Joseph’s head. Then she got up and climbed towards the door.

Joseph pulled her back just when her fingers touched the door.

She still wanted to struggle, but Joseph suddenly hugged her from behind. There was something in his hoarse voice that she had never heard before. He was begging for mercy, “Don’t leave me, please.”

Isabella was shocked.

Joseph tightly hugged her and placed his face on her back. He looked like a drowning person who had finally found a straw to save his life. He breathed a sigh of relief.

Joseph held her so tight that she could feel his heartbeat.

Isabella suddenly felt her face turned red.

‘What was Joseph doing? He had bitten her just now, but now he begged her not to leave.’

‘Was it a confess? He took advantage of the timing to confess?’

‘Also, how could a conceited man like him actually use the word “beg”?’

‘What should she do? She suddenly felt that this man was a little cute.’

‘I heard that people tended to tell the truth when they lost their rationality. Could it be that Joseph has a crush on her?’

‘No way! Stop the imagination!’

‘Isabella, pull yourself together! You can’t like a man only for his handsome appearance!

‘Come on!’

After her wild imagination, Isabella regained some rationality and said, “Anyway, let go of me first. You’re hurting me so much.”

Joseph didn’t say anything, but he loosened her up a little.

Just as Isabella let out a sigh of relief, Joseph suddenly sat down on the ground and let her sit on his lap.

He put his head on her chest.

Isabella got goose bumps again.

‘God, Joseph treats her like a weak kitten. Could it be that he was really sick and lost his mind?

“Joseph.”

Although she felt that her current posture was a bit embarrassing, Isabella couldn’t scold him. Judged from Joseph’s heating head, she couldn’t be too serious with a person whose brain was burnt out. So she carefully asked, “Are you thirsty? Let go of me. I’ll get you some water.”

Joseph shook his head like a helpless child, “Don’t leave me. I feel so uncomfortable.”

Isabella was shocked.

“Hold me tight.”

Isabella had always been a righteous woman, and she absolutely couldn’t bear to leave him alone.

And now, Joseph...

His normally meticulous black hair was in a mess. He looked at her with his pitiful big eyes. He looked so vulnerable.

Isabella couldn’t stand it anymore.

He looked so sick and delicate. No one could resist this side of Joseph at this moment.

Isabella immediately stretched out her hands, hooked Joseph’s neck, and hugged him into her arms. She was extremely heroic, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here!”

Joseph was satisfied. He held her waist with both hands and rubbed her chest again.

“Do you feel better now?”

“Yes.”

Isabella sat on Joseph’s lap with her chest sticking to his heating face. Although Joseph didn’t do anything that crossed the line, Isabella’s heart still beat fast.
