Stay Around You Now And Forever novel (Hunter Jackson)

Chapter 402: Joseph Isn’t Good Enough for You?



Chapter 402: Joseph Isn’t Good Enough for You?

It was all Joseph’s fault! He was the one who forced Emily!

Did that mean that Emily was forced?

Joseph put the burden on himself to protect Emily.

Patriarch Gale knew Joseph better than anyone.

Joseph wouldn’t force a woman.

Lottie did not believe that. Joseph was extraordinary. A lot of women liked him.

It was impossible for him to force a woman.

He just wanted to make Emily feel better!

“Dad, shouldn’t we let them tidy up and talk about this matter later?”

Joseph was not dressed properly. It was like he had been caught adultery in the act.

Lottie couldn’t bear to see her son like that.

Patriarch Gale finally reacted. Emily was still lying on the bed. How could he let everyone continue to stay?

“Well, why don’t we go down to the lobby and have a drink?” Milo said immediately.

Patriarch Gale also hurriedly said, “Alright, tell the servants to prepare some supper. Let’s go downstairs.”

Wendy and Sasha took the lead and walked out. Behind them was Hunter.

From beginning to end, he didn’t seem to look at Emily.

Perhaps he did, but his eyes were very cold.

Everyone left. Patriarch Gale walked at the end. He looked at Joseph and then at Emily.

He still couldn’t accept that.

Milo tugged at the corner of his clothes. “Patriarch Gale, let’s go down first. Don’t make things difficult for them.”

“Alright.”

Patriarch Gale finally left.

Instantly, there were only Joseph and Emily in the room.

“Have we been schemed?” Emily did not remember what had happened before.

What she only remembered was that she fell into Joseph’s embrace while she was so hot.

She lowered her head and looked at her body. Fortunately, although her clothes were very messy, her underwear was still there.

At the very least, nothing had happened.

Joseph got out of bed and turned his back to her.

“Put on your clothes first.”

Emily immediately frantically put on her clothes.

Joseph went to the bathroom to make sure that he hadn’t touched her before letting out a sigh of relief.

No matter what, Emily was hurt the most.

Joseph didn’t expect that someone in this family wanted to attack him.

Was this family going to become complicated?

When the two of them went downstairs, many people were talking in the hall.

Seeing them come down, Patriarch Gale who had regained his senses immediately waved his hand. “Emily, come here.”

Emily walked over and secretly looked at Hunter.

Hunter was sitting with Wendy, who was personally pouring tea for him.

They looked great.

Emily ignored him, walked to Patriarch Gale and sat down.

Sasha suddenly laughed. “It turns out that Joseph and Emily’s relationship is so good. Why didn’t you tell me?”

Lottie did not say anything. She had never heard her son mention anything about women.

Moreover, with Joseph’s status, his wife should be helpful to his career.

Emily’s background and family were not good enough.

Joseph sat beside Emily on the sofa.

At this moment, Joseph was gentle and warm as usual.

He looked at Sasha and said indifferently, “However, she didn’t agree to be my girlfriend, so I didn’t tell anyone.”

Emily glanced at him, and Joseph signaled her to calm down.

Emily could only pretend that she wasn’t drugged.

Emily was at the Gales’ mansion. If anything happened, it should be settled by Joseph.

As an outsider, Emily should not act rashly for the time being.

“You already …”

Sasha glanced at them and covered her mouth with a smile. “How could you say that Emily did not agree to be your girlfriend?”

Joseph only replied with a faint smile. He did not respond to this question for the time being.

He said, “What happened just now? Why did you all go to my room?”

Regardless of the relationship between him and Emily, Joseph knew that it was not simple when they went to his room together.

Why did everyone rush in at the same time?

“Just now, the maid said that she heard a girl’s cry in your room. She thought that something had happened, so …”

As Sasha spoke, she subconsciously looked at Emily with a faint smile.

“Alright, it’s just a misunderstanding. You guys. It looks like a good thing is coming, doesn’t it?”

No one replied.

Sasha thought for a moment and then turned to look at Wendy and Hunter.

“Dad, look, shouldn’t we also talk about the wedding of Wendy and Hunter? Now, Joseph and Wendy’s younger sister … Good things should be in pairs.”

After Patriarch Gale calmed down, he accepted this matter happily.

He had truly loved Emily as his granddaughter from the start.

However, Emily was not his real granddaughter after all. She was a child of someone else, so he could not snatch her away.

But tonight, the situation was completely different.

Emily became Joseph’s girlfriend, which was consistent with Patriarch Gale’s hope.

Patriarch Gale wasn’t concerned whether Wendy was with Hunter or not.

If Emily could marry Joseph, then she would stay here in the future, and Patriarch Gale would be able to see her every day!

The more Patriarch Gale thought about it, the more excited he became. He was looking forward to it.

“Joseph, no matter what, you must give Emily a promise.”

Patriarch Gale purposely showed a stern expression.

“Why don’t you let me set a date for you to get engaged first?”

“What?” Emily was so scared that she almost stood up from the sofa.

Engaged? Was Patriarch Gale kidding?

“Of course, you will get engaged! Joseph bullied you. It can’t be ignored. It’s not good for you.”

Patriarch Gale held her hand tightly.

“Don’t worry. I will definitely do justice for you. I will definitely not let this brat hurt you.”

“No, Patriarch Gale, Joseph and I didn’t …”

“Look at me, I’m such a fool. You don’t need to call him Joseph like Wendy.”

Patriarch Gale patted his head and hurriedly said, “In the future, you should call him Joey or Joe.”

“But we really didn’t do anything. We just …”

“Everyone has seen what happened just now. Emily, don’t be shy.”

Seeing her father so happy, Sasha couldn’t help but help him. “Do you think Joseph isn’t good enough for you?”
