The young man said indifferently, “I will help you cancel the contract. You are not qualified to make Mr. Joseph wait.”

“...”

Lukas looked in the direction where Isabella disappeared and pinched his palm. “I’ll be right there.”

In the pavilion, Joseph poured Lukas a cup of coffee elegantly.

Lukas was so anxious that he broke out in a sweat. “Mr. Joseph, about your investment in our company...”

“Mr. Lukas, you seem to have something urgent to do?”

Joseph raised her eyebrows, “Is there anything more important than redeeming your family business for you?”

Then he laughed heartily. “Are you afraid that your beautiful fiancée will be anxious to wait for you?”

.....

“No.”

Lukas pinched his thigh under the table to calm himself down, and then he said, “The Shaw Company is the work of my parents for the rest of their lives. And it is the most important thing at the moment to me. I wonder if Mr. Joseph has considered it.”

Joseph said calmly, “I heard that the entire Shaw Company is only worth 8 billion dollars.”

Lukas froze.

“Although you are smart and capable, and you have been involved in the showbiz for a long time, you are not experienced in business operations. It will be difficult for you to take back your parents’ business in a short time just by providing a little financial support. However, it will be different if you acquire everything online.”

Lukas’s eyes flashed with surprise. “Mr. Joseph, do you mean...”

Joseph sipped his coffee, with his movements elegant and his expression indifferent.

Lukas could not see through the man in front of him, but he knew that the suggestion Joseph provided was the most practicable scheme, and he could not help but be excited, “I know that you will never sustain losses in business, but please believe me and give me a chance. As long as I control the Shaw Company, I will use the shortest time to make you profit!”

“Sure.”

Joseph put down the coffee cup without hesitation, “I can help you, and I can also send a special coffee to help you deal with all the problems in the shortest time possible so that you can quickly adapt to the business management, but I also have a condition.”

“Speak please!”

Lukas did not expect Joseph to be so decisive and said excitedly, “No matter what the conditions are, I can agree to them!”

“You said that you will agree to it no matter what the conditions are? Mr. Lukas, you are a straightforward person. I like it.”

Joseph smiled and gestured. Gerry immediately handed over a document.

“This is the contract. Take a look, please! If there are no problems, you can sign at the back. The eight hundred million dollars will be credited to your account in batches within three days.”

“That’s right!”

Lukas excitedly picked up the pen and flipped the contract. Then, he was stunned.

“First, from now on, cut off all connections with Isabella...”

Lukas looked at Joseph in confusion, “Mr. Joseph, what is the meaning of this? What does this have to do with Isabella?”

Joseph smiled.

He said, “I am very interested in Isabella. Someone as smart as you should have seen through it, right? Otherwise, why did you hesitate when she lit me a cigarette?”

Lukas looked at Joseph and finally realized that beneath the calm appearance, Joseph was a black-bellied and cold person, making him feel cold all over.

“Isabella is outstanding. It is normal for men to fall in love with her...”

Lukas lowered his head and said, “But it is the matter between you and her. Why must you write it into our contract?”

“Because she has been secretly in love with you for more than ten years, and she still loves you!”

Joseph laughed out loud, full of sarcasm, “Even as an outsider, I can see through it. Could it be that you have been focusing on Miss Rosy, so you haven’t noticed that?”

Lukas gritted his teeth.

“Since the woman I love is not with me, then the most effective solution to solve it is to make her completely abandon you, isn’t it?”

Joseph pushed the contract forward, “Spending eight hundred million dollars to buy a woman I’m interested in. I think it’s worth it. I wonder how you feel.”

Lukas clearly knew the sarcasm in every word Joseph said, but he was unable to refute it.

“But you use a contract to restrain me. What is the difference between this and letting me betray Isabella...”

“That is your problem.”

Joseph shrugged his shoulders in a relaxed manner and said, “You already have a wife. You can’t be with Isabella. Why compete with us bachelors for beautiful women? Besides, with eight hundred million dollars, what woman can you not get?”

Lukas did not speak anything.

“I will give you five minutes to consider.”

Joseph looked at the watch and smiled. “You need to choose one between eight hundred million dollars and Isabella. No matter which one you choose, I will respect you and never reveal what happened today.”

Lukas’s eyes trembled. “If I don’t sign the contract, will you give up on Isabella?”

“That is not something you should consider.”

“Are you sincere towards Isabella?”

“That is also not something you should consider.”

“...”

Joseph smiled evilly. “But to be honest, a woman worth eight hundred million dollars should be able to play for a few more days, right?”

“Please don’t...”

Lukas lowered his head, coffers swirling in his eyes. He said, “Please promise me that you will never hurt Isabella anyway. Don’t hit her, don’t abuse her, and don’t bully her. She has suffered a lot. Although she didn’t say it, I know it. I know that she is a very simple person. She has been working very hard...”

Joseph’s eyes darkened as he enunciated each word, “So you have made a decision? You will stop all the connections with Isabella for eight hundred million dollars?”

Lukas did not answer, but picked up the pen, with his face ashen. He said, “About the contract, especially the part about Isabella, I hope it becomes the eternal secret between us.”

Joseph smiled. “Sure.”

“Swear on the Wilsons’ reputation!” Lukas’s eyes were bloodshot, and he said excitedly.

Joseph raised an eyebrow and became a little more serious. “I swear on the Wilsons’ reputation. Only the people present know of what happened today.”

Lukas nodded. After a moment of silence, he signed his name at the end of the contract.

“Then the matter is settled.”

Joseph put away the contract, stood up and smiled brightly, “I wish you a happy wedding.”

“Thank you, Mr. Joseph. It’s my pleasure to cooperate with you.”

Lukas had just stood up and was about to shake hands with Joseph when he suddenly felt something was wrong and turned around.

It was Isabella who was leaning against the pillar behind him. At that moment, she was slowly sliding down like a doll that had lost its power...
