Chapter 4

Five days later, Joseph would call his secretary, Max Johnson, to the office.

“How is your investigation on Raya?”

The man looked out of the floor–to–ceiling window over the Medo landscape. His tall and straight figure projected an extremely oppressive silhouette.

“S–sorry, Mr. Sawle, there is no progress.”

Max wiped his sweat nervously. “And after leaving that night, Young Madam did not return to the sanatorium she worked at before. I even personally went to Madam’s hometown, Cloudtown. The address on it is fake. There is no family with the surname Lewis there.”

“The address is fake?” Joseph suddenly turned around, his eyes dark and oppressive.

“Yes, I went to the local police station to investigate, but there was no one there.” After all, Max had called Chloe the Young Madam for three years, and he really could not change his mind.

Joseph’s mind buzzed. Who did he marry? Was she a female spy?

“She left with Oscar that night, and there was no clue to investigate Oscar?”

“To tell you the truth, Mr. Sawle. If Mr. Thorp really wants to hide a woman in a golden nest, we probably can’t find anything…”

“A woman hiding in a golden house.” The seven words made Joseph’s eyebrows jump fiercely, and his dark eyes surged with anger.

“Oscar seems to have a good personality. How can he have the means to snatch my woman away?”

“Uh… not really snatching. This is supposed to be called a rebound guy…” Joseph’s sharp eyes flew over. Max was so shocked that he could not catch his breath and coughed.

The scene of Oscar protecting Raya that night was vivid in his mind, and the affection in the eyes of the man was deep and strong.

Joseph did not know why, but his heart was stuffy.

How could his dull wife be so charming that even Oscar, the famous

ruthless and heartless “spinach” in the circle of rich and powerful families, became her flower protector and minister under her skirt?

“Joseph, can we… not divorce?”

“Because… I love you!”

“Liar!” Joseph narrowed his eyes, his whole body exuding a chill.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became; the angrier he became, the more he thought about it.

At this time, the phone on the table vibrated.

Joseph collected his thoughts, and when he saw that it was a call from Grace, he hurriedly picked it up.

“Grace, what’s wrong?”

“Brother Joseph, I’m in Sawle Group’s lobby. Can you come and pick me up? I brought you some snacks that I personally made. I want to give you a taste as soon as possible.”

Grace’s voice came from the phone. It was both greasy and sweet, and it made Max’s bones numb.

“Are you downstairs now?” Joseph frowned.

“Yes, Brother Joseph. What’s wrong? Don’t you want to see Grace?” Grace asked coquettishly.

“I do, I’ll ask Max to pick you up.”

After hanging up the phone, Joseph looked a little depressed.

Right now, he had not finished the formalities with Raya, and there was still no public news of the divorce. At this time, Grace came to the group to find him openly, which would cause a lot of gossip.

He was not afraid of anything, but…

At this time, the phone vibrated again.

Joseph looked down at the screen, and his heart suddenly tightened.

“Grandpa.”

“Son of a gun! What did I tell you that you disregarded?”

“I told you that since you married Raya, you are not allowed to have any contact with the daughter of the Brown family!” Old Master Sawle shouted angrily.

“Not only did you break your promise, you also brought her to the group It doesn’t matter if you are self–deprecating. Where do you want Raya to

put her face? Get over here!”

In the reception room, the pressure was suffocating.

Rory held his walking stick and sat steadily with the support of his

personal secretary and Jake. His face was as black at ink

Joseph stood straight in front of the elder Grace was blocked outside the

door In Old Masters words, this kind of woman who was like a

concubine did not deserve to see his face.

“Speak! What happened to that woman? Rory slammed his walking stick to the ground.

“Dad, please calm down first. Jake hurriedly patted Old Master’s back and glared at Joseph

‘Grandpa, the three years are up

“You promised me that I would only marry Raya for three years. When the three years are up, to continue the marriage or to divorce, it is up to me. Joseph’s voice was hoarse as he said word by word.

Rory’s face turned pale, as if he had been struck by lightning

For the past three years, Raya’s good company had made him live happily every day, without realizing that the deadline had arrived after more than a thousand days!

Now, I choose to end this marriage and be with the person I truly love. You should not have any objections Raya has also signed the divorce agreement. She will go with me to go through the procedures. Joseph lightly opened his thin lips, indifferent and heartless.

“What? You have already divorced Rory was furious, and when he got up, his vision went black and he almost fell down.

Joseph rushed forward to help his grandfather, but he was pushed away by Old Master resentfully.

‘Dad! They haven’t got the divorce certificate yet. They just signed an agreement. You must stay calm in case you have a stroke!” Jake was worried that Old Master’s chronic illness would flare up, so he quickly tried to reassure him.

“What a sin! What a sin! My daughter–in–law is already not good, why can’t my granddaughter–in–law be the one I like?”

Joseph was frozen in place and did not know whether to put his hands

away or not. Jake got criticized for no reason.

“I want Raya! Go and fetch my Raya! I can’t rest easy without her. I don’t want anyone else. I want Raya to be the granddaughter–in–law of our Sawle family!” As Rory aged, he began to look more and more like a child.

“Joseph, quickly call Raya so she can come and visit Grandpa!” Jake said urgently.

“Grandpa, what you are doing is meaningless. Even if I call her back to accompany you now, our marriage has come to an end, and there is no possibility of continuing.”

Joseph thought it was better to have short pains than to drag them out; he decided to directly refuse his grandfather.

“Ah!” Rory’s whole body trembled, and he fell back straight.

This time, Jake and his son were frightened, calling the doctor and looking for medicine for a while.

Joseph had no choice but to grit his teeth and call Raya.

As a result.

“The phone number you dialed is empty.”

Not only did Raya disappear, but she also cancelled her phone number!

“Damn it!” Joseph was so angry that his eyes turned red, and he clenched his fists.

On the other side, in front of KS WORLD’s hotel.

The higher–ups were already waiting outside to greet the leader who had descended from the sky.

“I heard that the general manager who came today is a young woman!”

“Tsk, the four male managers who came here didn’t make a comeback, and this girl can turn the tables when she comes? What a joke!”

“I heard that she is Director Thorp’s biological daughter…”

“Director Thorp has three wives and four concubines. I guess she is an illegitimate daughter who is not favored? How can his precious daughter be sent to clean up this mess?”

Everyone snickered.

“It’s here! The new boss is here!”

A top Rolls–Royce steadily stopped in front of the big door, followed by several top Maybach. The line–up was quite spectacular.

When everyone saw the license plate number 9999, they instantly fell silent and held their breath.

As soon as the car door opened, a pair of super high–heels with a black front and a red background was the first thing they saw.

In the next second, a breathtakingly beautiful woman with a graceful figure, cascading black hair, and a stunningly attractive face emerged from the car with a leisurely air. Her gaze was as sharp as the autumn wind, sweeping away the fallen leaves with an intimidating force, making it impossible for anyone to meet her eyes.

“Alright, everyone.”

“I am your new general manager, but I am not an illegitimate daughter. I am sorry to disappoint you.” Chloe said.

The few people who were talking earlier were so scared that they were sweating.

A few minutes ago, in the car.

Chloe picked up her laptop and directly hacked the two surveillance cameras at the entrance of the hotel.
