Burning Love Cute Husband and His Little Wife

241 He Comes!

Lukas saw Isabella curled up and hugged his knees. Obviously, she recalled the sad memories of the past. He comforted her softly, “I also believe that uncle couldn’t have secretly modified the gas path for extra benefits.”

Isabella looked up at him, “Thank you.”

Lukas shook his head and smiled bitterly, “I remember when I was young, and I often saw you being bullied by your classmates. I thought you were naughty and provocative.”

“But when I grew up, I found out that because that explosion covered far and wide, almost half of the street was blown up. Some of the relatives of the classmates were affected, so they transferred their hatred to you and your mother and often bullied you.”

Isabella nodded, “You’re right, when I was a child, the most I heard was that my dad was a murderer.”

Lukas looked at Isabella’s side face with upset under the firelight, he lowered his eyes, “I’m sorry, Isabella. I was just trying to free you from the accusations. I didn’t mean to bother you with the past. Let’s forget it, Rosy might have said it casually. Perhaps no one knew the truth.”

Isabella asked seriously, “I remember you told me that Rosy said that unconsciously. Why was she unconscious?”

Lukas paused.

“Was she drinking or dreaming?” Isabella asked curiously.

.....

Lukas looked down and his eyes flickered. Then he said after a long pause, “She shouted out of control after we reached the climax.”

“To what ...”

Before Isabella could say that word, she suddenly realized what Lukas meant. She bit her lips awkwardly and placed her chin back on her knees, “OK, I got it.”

“So it might be nonsense.”

Lukas’s eyes were dimmed and he said quietly, “Forget about it when you go back tomorrow. It has been so long, and it is meaningless. Just let it go.”

“Never.”

Isabella’s voice was not loud, but very firm, “Although I don’t remember my father, I want to get to the bottom of the explosion.”

Lukas was stunned, “How?”

“I don’t have a plan yet.”

Isabella rubbed her two bare feet, “But I will do my best. I also want to know whether my father’s death was a coincidence or a deserved one. If not, I will secure justice for him.”

If Slike’s death was because of Carl, then after she married Joseph, she would be able to investigate it.

Lukas frowned as he looked at Isabella’s face with stubbornness. After a long pause, he smiled in relief and extended his fist, “How about counting me in for this tough mission?”

It suddenly reminded Isabella of the tacit understanding between Lukas and her when they were students. She smiled and made a fist bump with him, “You are so straightforward... Will you drag me down?”

“Two heads are better than one. I will be helpful for you.”

Isabella laughed, “We have a long way to go!”

“May we succeed!”

They looked at each other and smiled as if all the conflict between them had vanished. Isabella was beaming when she suddenly saw a black figure in the rain.

“Bang-”

Lightning flashed across the sky, and Isabella was shocked.

“Jo ... Joseph?”

If it wasn’t for his cold and thin eyes that were too sharp and familiar, Isabella almost couldn’t believe that the person who was wearing muddy shoes and in a sorry state was Joseph. Because he should be in the Peace City far away.

Joseph stood in the rain. He was drenched although he held an umbrella. His hair was cluttered against his eyes. The rainwater fell down his cheeks.

He glanced at Lukas, then looked at Isabella. Then he smiled at Isabella and turned to leave.

“Joseph!” Isabella shouted.

“Wait! You forget the umbrella!”

Isabella shook off Lukas’s hand and jumped down from the high platform at the door. She ran out to catch up with Joseph.

“Let me explain, Joseph.”

Isabella trotted behind Joseph, “Lukas was just worried about my safety. I didn’t ask him to come and we were not on a date. Although we are not married yet, I am very loyal to you!”

Without saying anything, Joseph continued to walk forward.

“Darling, did you come to take me home?”

Isabella smiled flatteringly, “The mountain road is so muddy, how did you get in here? By the way, I wanted to call you, but there was no signal. How did you find me?”

Joseph completely ignored her.

“Darling, darling!”

Isabella didn’t care about the mud in the mountain, she followed Joseph closely and grabbed his sleeves tightly. She knew that if he went back with his misunderstanding, he would never see her again!

Joseph suddenly stopped.

And Isabella crashed into his back.

“Let go,” Joseph said coldly.

“Darling, I was wrong.”

The rain trickled down Isabella’s delicate face. She didn’t hold an umbrella, so she was drenched and was in a sorry state. However, she still looked up at Joseph and coaxed, “I know you are angry. Don’t hold it back, you can scold me. You came all the way for me. I am so touched that I am about to cry. Can you go back to the house and dry your clothes first? Or you will catch a cold!”

Joseph looked down at Isabella, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and he said in a cold voice, “I’m not your B-plan. Since you can’t let go of Lukas, get lost!”

“It was not like what you thought!”

“He is just my brother now!” Isabella pulled Joseph’s sleeve tightly.

“Well, your brother ...”

Joseph pinched Isabella’s chin, “I underestimated you and Lukas. What a nice excuse!”

Then, he flung away Isabella and turned to leave!

“Joseph! Please don’t go! Please!”

Isabella was wearing slippers, so she couldn’t catch up to Joseph. She was so anxious that she tripped over a rock under her feet and fell to the ground.

Joseph’s eyes flashed. He stopped and turned to look at her.

Seeing Joseph look at her, Isabella desperately crawled forward. She grabbed his pants and choked, “Joseph, I was wrong and you can scold me or do whatever that can please you now, just don’t ignore me. I like you so much! So why would I be entangled with another man? Besides my mother, you are the best person to me!”

Joseph’s Adam’s apple kept rolling in anger. After a long pause, he crouched down and covered Isabella with an umbrella. He took her hand, “Get up first.”
