469 Finally, He Felt Assured
Joseph no longer felt sleepy. He opened his eyes and stared at Isabella’s face until the daylight came.
The phone vibrated. It was a call from Gerry.
Joseph carefully removed Isabella’s hands and feet from his body. Then, he got up and changed his clothes. He walked into the garden before calling Gerry back.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Joseph. I’ve disturbed you so early because I’ve found some clues about what you asked me to investigate last night.”
Joseph immediately said, “It’s fine, just tell me!”
“Apart from a trip to Mexico half a month ago to attend a suspected arms deal, Kason has not left America recently. He has been active in California and New York.”
Joseph relaxed a little. “What is the accuracy of this news? His whereabouts have always been unknown. Will there be any omissions? For example, will he be in China these days?”
“Although we can’t know his whereabouts completely, we can confirm that he will not appear in China recently.”
Gerry explained in detail, “Some gangsters have been messing with him over there recently. They seem to want to harm Kason, so Kason’s main job recently is to clean them up. Yesterday, there was a large-scale gang fight in Los Angeles. I heard that Kason had turned up there, so he couldn’t appear in China.”
.....
“Cleaning up?” Joseph raised his eyebrows, “So, that means he has been very busy recently?”
“Yes, that’s how it is.” Gerry thought about it and said, “The rule among the gangsters has always been to get rid of internal problems first then the external troubles. Betrayal is the most unforgivable. So if there is nothing particularly urgent, once they have a falling out with each other, Kason will first clean them up. This is a matter of principle.”
When Joseph heard this, he felt assured. “Alright, thank you for your hard work. Have a rest today. You don’t have to come over during the day.”
“Wait, Mr. Joseph.”
After Gerry replied, he did not immediately hang up the phone as usual. Instead, he said hesitantly, “Mr. Joseph, if I may, can you tell me why you suddenly asked about Kason’s whereabouts? Could it be that you have noticed something wrong?”
Joseph shook his head, “I saw a mixed-blood man last night. He was a little like Kason, so I got a little far.”
Gerry paused for a moment and said rationally, “This is almost impossible. Even if that person is Kason, he would have taken action if he wanted to do bad to you. He is more likely to explode the amusement park or destroy the facilities. He is not a very patient man. He is never used to bluffing when he does things. If he wants to do it, he will do it.”
Joseph thought for a moment, “Well, actually, I also feel that it is impossible... Maybe because I’m getting married, I’m a little nervous...”
Then he guffawed, “It seems that not only will women be nervous before marriage, men will also be. After all, I’m not alone. There will be many things to consider.”
“Joseph!”
Joseph was on the phone when Isabella sneaked up on him. She was so flexible that she hung onto Joseph like a monkey.
“Alright, Gerry, the little monkey in the zoo is here to mess me. I’ll hang up.”
Joseph hung up the phone with a smile and asked Isabella, “Why are you out? Don’t you like sleeping in?”
Isabella hid her face in Joseph’s neck and acted like a spoiled child. She said, “Since you’re not around, I don’t even want to sleep in. Why don’t I just hang on your body and sleep for a while? It’s good to be a little monkey once.”
“Hey, you. Did I wake you up when I got up?”
“No, but I heard that you were nervous before marriage. Are you nervous before marriage?”
Because the crisis regarding Kason was averted, Joseph felt much better. He couldn’t help but laugh, “Yes, I am very nervous because I am worried that you will abuse me.”
“Ah? Are you serious? You must be lying. I can’t beat you at all. You’re so big, and you can crush me easily.”
“But you have Grandpa backing you up, don’t you? Don’t you often let Grandpa support you to bully me?”
“That made sense.”
“I won’t bully you anymore. We treat each other well, and no one is allowed to bully anyone. We should be fine in the future.” Isabella hugged Joseph and kissed him on the neck.
“Agree with you.”
“Go! Joseph! Go and see Goldie! I must pluck a few hairs from Goldie’s butt and make them into a brush today!”
Joseph obediently carried Isabella and walked toward the zoo. “You shouldn’t bully Goldie. It is a good lion. It can cure diseases and save people.”
“Oh? curing illnesses and saving people? Why didn’t you mention it before?”
“Well, I asked Gerry to make your brother see our pet Goldie when sending your brother away. I heard that your brother’s legs immediately recovered, and he ran faster than a rabbit. It seems that your brother doesn’t need to continue the rehabilitation treatment.”
“You are so bad! Then if you hate me in the future, will you be bad to me too?”
“If you listen to me, I will not do anything bad to you.”
“Then how can it be considered as being good?”
Joseph tilted his head and whispered in Isabella’s ear. Isabella immediately grabbed Joseph’s ear and said, “You’re so perverted! Joseph! You have no morals!”
“Do not pinch my ears!”
“Who told you to say that?”
“You’re about to become my wife, so what are you ashamed of? I’ll even know how many hairs are in your nest in the future.”
“Oh my god! Your words are not romantic at all!”
“...”
“...”
The golden morning sun beamed on the entire Wilson Manor. Joseph carried Isabella on his back. They happily went to the zoo to see Goldie. They sang and laughed along the way, sweet and happy.
What was the future of happiness?
It was just that they would never feel lonely. They had each other in their hearts, making them feel full. Although there would be quarrels when they stayed together, they would never feel bored.
How good it would be if time could stop. Let all the happiness stay at this moment, and there would be no more sadness and pain...
Three days later, Joseph and Isabella’s engagement party was held on time. As they wanted to keep a low profile, the venue of the engagement was located at the Wilson Manor.
Early in the morning, Isabella began to get up and dress up as a bride. As soon as she finished her hairstyle, she heard that the car sent to pick up the Smiths had arrived at the gate of the manor.
As soon as Isabella heard that her mother had come, she was so happy that she did not care about anything else and rushed out.
The black Leicester of the Wilson Manor slowly came to a stop. the Smiths got off the car.
“Mom!”
When Isabella saw Rosa, she immediately pounced.
Rosa was dressed up very elegantly and beautifully today. She wore a simple purple-red dress with golden retro jewelry. Her fair skin and beautiful and gentle face made her look extremely beautiful.
