Chapter 387 387: I Want To Get Some Fresh Air



"Roy, trust me. I really didn\'t mean to hurt them." Shirley was so anxious.

"Why did you hire people to track them?" Roy took a glimpse at Ruby and found she was also helpless, so he sighed and added, "These are things of our young people. Joseph is Ruby\'s husband, and they know how to deal with it. You have to stay out of their business."

Roy was not an idiot, and he could perceive Joseph\'s care for Irish when he called him from South Africa and asked him to pick her up at the airport. He knew that he wouldn\'t call him for no reason. And he was also not blind, and when Cassie was sent to the hospital, he could see that the person Joseph really cared about was Irish, though he was so anxious at that time. They were all of his sisters, so he couldn\'t be angry with any one of them. If it was not for Irish, he would definitely slap Joseph violently.

Shirley still wanted to argue for herself while Joseph suddenly said at this time, who looked like a spectator that had seen enough of the inferior performance, and he said calmly, "Mr. Lake, I think it is perhaps a misunderstanding. As for me, I was shot....." He stopped for a few seconds, taking a quick glance at Irish while there was a faint light flickering in his eyes as the light from the morning sun, and then continued with a faint smile, "I have been accustomed to it since whenever I went to South Africa, I will risk my life. But it is natural because where there is profit, there is danger."

"Yes, yes. Henry, do you hear that? Joseph had explained to you, do you believe me now?" Hearing the words from Joseph, Shirley hastily indicates her innocence to Henry as if she had found a savior.

Before Henry could say something, Joseph said again, "It is a reunion day, and don\'t let this trifle affect your mood. Let it go, and now that I don\'t care about that, you can be relieved."

His words finished the farce while others also persuaded Henry not to be angry anymore, while Irish just kept silent. She was an outsider in the Lake family, so it didn\'t matter if she would join them. But during this short time, she cleared several things.

The first thing was that she had misunderstood Joseph, and he did not mention what happened to them in South Africa to Henry at all.

The second thing was that she thought Henry would show no interest in their company\'s business since he had resigned from a leading post. However, she forgot that the older man was the wiser. He could still get much information through many channels though she did not know how much news he had got. At least, he had known that they were tracked by others, and he even knew that someone was going to kill them. Then did he know that Joseph was shot because of her? She just made an observation and then got the conclusion that he may not know the truth about why Joseph was shot.

Another reason was Bell. Bell was dismissed because she sent messages secretly to Shirley, but from her reaction of Shirley, it was likely that Bell did not tell her the whole thing but just told her that she was also in South Africa with Joseph. However, Bell did not tell her that she lived with Joseph together because if Shirley got this news, she would not leave the matter at that. In this way, Bell was dismissed because she spoke out of turn.

Thinking about this, Irish\'s heart beat so fast and was a little self-sentimental since she suddenly thought Joseph discharged Bell for her because she was jealous and Joseph cared about her feelings. But soon, Irish stopped her thought since she felt it was impossible because he was a meticulous man and he could make a clear distinction between public and private interests.

Additionally, things were controlled by Joseph. Obviously, he was trying to cover it up. Though she did not know if Shirley had hired people to kill them, at least Joseph did not hope many people would get involved in it. He had rich experience in South Africa, and he could know clearly who was eager for profit and who wanted to kill him. He was a man who would consolidate at every step, and he had been suspicious about this incident when they were still in South Africa, so how could it be possible that he would cancel once and for all simply? There was only one possibility that he was still investigating this.

The chefs served many delicious dishes, and they were all very expensive, and she enjoyed a range of food cultures and food colors to enjoy cooking methods. It turned out that Henry did lash out for this meal. The life of rich people was a real luxury.

Even the household utensils were very fastidious since the color, material and even the shape of the utensils were closely related to the dishes. Irish sneered in her heart, and she suddenly reminded her mother, who had never enjoyed such treatment when she was still with Henry.

She felt sorrowful, and the invisible sullenness soon aroused from her heart that made it hard to breathe. Her hand suddenly trembled, and the fork fell down to the ground, causing a harsh sound.

When she was just about to bend down to pick it up, Henry hastily said, "It doesn\'t matter." And then he hastily asked the steward to bring a new set of tableware. Before the steward could replace it for her, she replied indifferently. "There is no need for you to do that. I can get it myself. Excuse me, I want to get some fresh air." Then she left the dining hall, ignoring Henry, who was embarrassed.

There was an independent room to set the tableware, and there were even some servants who were responsible for the management of tableware. Irish had never seen the luxurious life of the rich since she was still struggling for a residence while the Lake family set a room for tableware. She sneered and touched that tableware gently with her finger. They were high-quality silverware, Austrian luxury crystal plates, and exquisitely sculpted small spoons, and each of them was as if coming from the fairy tale world. And now she felt that she was wrong since she thought she could live a good life as long as she struggled hard, but now it seemed ridiculous, and she realized perhaps she could not catch up with them through her lifelong struggle.
