"Well then, I'll take my leave first. You should hurry back to the hospital and have a good rest. You should value your body for only you know your own health. People always say that one will break down from constant overwork. You may think that it's alright now, but when you collapse, it will be too late," Waverly said gently. Bellamy looked at her silently, as if he had a lot to say. Waverly only lowered her eyes to avoid his gaze and walked towards the door. Quill looked at Bellamy. Bellamy nodded his head. Quill frowned and opened the door. Waverly got out of the car without looking back. "I'm sorry, Mr. President. I was the one being a burden. If I hadn't been so careless, you and Madam wouldn't have had such a big misunderstanding," Quill said apologetically. Bellamy sat still, not moving at all. His entire body seemed to be enveloped by an unknown aura, looking powerful yet lonely at the same time. Quill felt sad and said, "M
Waverly was seemingly ignoring her. She proceeded to sit on the chair and applied moisturizer on her skin. Yasmine was furious as she gripped Waverly's shoulder. She widened her eyes and said angrily, "Did you hear what I just said?" Waverly smiled briefly. She calmly looked at Yasmine's ferocious face and stayed quiet. Yasmine furrowed her brows and let go of Waverly. Confused, she said, "What do you mean by this? What are you sneering at? Do you know that you look scary and disgusting now?" Waverly turned around, applied some serum on her face, and continued to ignore Yasmine. "Waverly, what's this attitude? I am your leader, and you are just a mere assistant of mine!" Yasmine shouted. Waverly still acted as if she couldn't hear anything and applied a layer of foundation on her face. Yasmine felt completely disrespected and ignored. She felt her dignity and pride were all squashed by Waverly within seconds. Yasmine felt a gush of anger
"Excuse me, who are you?" Willie asked. For a moment, she failed to recognize Waverly. Joseph smiled. He held his wine glass, swirled it slowly, and locked his eyes onto Waverly. His eyes were crystal clear. "I'm Waverly Martell," Waverly said and sat down in the vacant seat. Willie opened her mouth in shock and looked at Yasmine. "Why did you dress up like this?!" Yasmine furrowed her brows together. Waverly poured herself a glass of red wine and took a sip, "Do I need your permission on how to dress up?" "Don't you think that you'll embarrass the Department of External Affairs?" Yasmine said unhappily. In the past, although Waverly had a cold personality, she would still dress up as a demure, gentle girl, giving off the impression that she was easy to bully. Waverly was like a wild cat now, no, a wild leopard. She looked sexy, elegant, charming, and mysterious. She could catch everyone's attention at a glance, and Yasmine was shocked by
Waverly was helpless. Based on the Mccarthy family's complicated background, even if she had five fearless guards with her, they wouldn't be of much help. During crucial moments, one or two would be enough to protect her. Moreover, if she hired fewer of them, the number of deaths could be reduced. She went back to her room, turned off her cell phone and packed up her luggage. Then, she put on a black trench coat, a hat, a pair of glasses, and a mask, and went straight to the airport. After Waverly left, Joseph also felt bored. He ate a little and asked Yasmine, "When are you leaving?" "The president of A Country said that I can leave tomorrow. I plan to stay for another day and go back the day after tomorrow. You rarely come here, so let's hang out and have some fun. I heard that Snowie Town is a pretty decent place to see. They have some villas there where some wealthy and respectable people live. Will you be interested in buying a new villa there?" Yasmine incited.
The Christmas Cactus that Joseph had given was still there, but Waverly was not present. He frowned and gave Waverly a call with cold eyes. "Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable," a mechanical female voice came from the phone. Joseph frowned all the more. He made a phone call and said in a cold voice, "If Waverly goes to Bellamy, call me immediately." "Yes," his subordinate replied. Joseph went out with a gloomy face and returned to his room. The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became. He called Joshua and ordered, "When Waverly comes back, call me immediately." "Yes, I'll send someone to constantly stand guard in front of Madam's door," Joshua replied. Joseph stared at the screen of his mobile phone and felt incredibly uncomfortable. Even after playing several games, he couldn't calm down at all. He called Joshua and asked, "Is she back yet?" "Not yet." "Send someone to the bar to look for her,
Beckham's lips curled into a smile. He calmly drank the tea in his cup and said softly, "See you in Country M, Joseph." In the evening, at Snowie Town. Joseph had already drunk his third glass of wine, "This is a nice mix. Let's have another glass." Sean mixed the wine slowly, "You can drink as much as you want, but if you get drunk, I'll throw you out. Don't make my woman's place dirty." Joseph's mouth curled up, and he said with a provocative attitude, "Then, I'll climb in through the window and secretly sleep in your house." Sean smiled and handed the wine to him, "I'm not one to be messed with." "Would you like to have a fight?" Joseph said with a smile. Truth be told, he was in a bad mood, such a terrible one that he was about to explode. "Do you think I am as boring as you? I never turn to fighting to solve my problems," Sean said with a smile. He took a sip of the wine and spat it out because it tasted bitter and spicy.
In Mexiland. After Waverly took a break, she turned on her phone. It was full of notifications. Among them, there were calls from Joseph, Yasmine, Bellamy, Hayley, Thomson, as well as a few unfamiliar calls. Waverly called Thomson first, "Uncle, I was on the plane yesterday, so I didn't turn on my phone. After I arrived at Mexiland, I found a hotel and went to sleep immediately. I'm sorry I didn't reply to you sooner." "You've gone to Mexiland?" Thomson asked curiously. "Well, I wanted to head out to relax on my own. I'll be back in a few days," Waverly said softly. "Come back. Ronaldo has decided to dub you as the Peace Lady. Joseph did a great job in fighting for the power of the Mccarthy family. That is the power of familial love," Thomson admired Joseph a lot. Waverly sighed internally. It hadn't been easy for her that after the assassination attempt as Thomson and Joseph had grown estranged, but in an instant, everything was back to normal
"You, h-how are you h-here?" Waverly stuttered. All sorts of guesses went through her mind. She suspected that Joseph had sent someone to follow her, but she immediately dismissed this idea. If Joseph's people followed her, she wouldn't even have been able to board the plane, but she would have been brought to Joseph instead. However, how did he find her? She was certain that he was able to make use of his resources to find out that she had come to Mexiland. It was incredible that he could find her within such a short time. "I called you but your phone was turned off. Were you on the plane? Nowadays, you don't need to turn off your phone during a plane ride," Waverly calmed down and quickly changed the subject. Joseph remained silent while looking at her slyly. Pursing his lips, he stayed quiet. "Yesterday, when I left, my phone was turned off..." Waverly wanted to explain. However, she realized that going to Mexiland was already su
