Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1208 A Plot within a Plot (5)

In the bathroom, Joe splashed his face with cold water, trying to stop the nosebleed. He stared at his reflection in the mirror, slowly coming back to reality.

He thought about how he'd been acting lately and felt a wave of shame. Normally, he was a pretty chill guy, but today? Man, he'd been a total jerk, even pushing Sadie around. What the heck was wrong with him? Joe mentally kicked himself while scrubbing at his clothes.

He was rocking a white suit tonight, now splattered with blood. If he walked out like this and the maids saw him, they'd definitely snitch to Amanda. Amanda, who doted on her only son, would be crushed seeing him like this. She might even blame Sadie, which would just mess things up more. Thinking about it, Joe got all jittery and tried to clean his clothes faster.

The faucet was running non-stop, drowning out any noise from outside. Joe had no clue someone had slipped in.

Barbara sneaked in quietly and locked the door behind her.

Seeing Sadie knocked out on the sofa, her eyes lit up. She glanced at the bathroom door.

Hearing the water running, she felt safe, quickly walked to the sofa, dumped some powder into a glass of water, shook it up, and made Sadie drink it. Then, she dragged Sadie into the wardrobe and stashed her there.

Just then, the water stopped, and Barbara freaked out. She quickly turned off the main light switch by the bed, stripped down, and got into bed. "Sadie, I can't get these bloodstains out. If I just ditch the jacket and go out like this, it should be cool, right?" Joe called out.

Joe stepped out of the bathroom and noticed the bedroom lights were off, with just a faint glow from the emergency light under the cabinet. "Sadie?" Joe asked, confused. "Why'd you turn off the lights?"

"Mm." Barbara, on the bed, mumbled like she was drunk.

"You okay?" Joe thought Sadie was wasted and cautiously walked over to the bed. "Why are you lying down? You feeling sick?" Barbara kept quiet, scared Joe would recognize her voice.

"You still mad at me?" Joe asked, feeling guilty. "I don't know what got into me earlier. I lost it. I'm really sorry. Please forgive me."

Barbara stayed silent, just shifting a bit to show off her long, sexy legs and half her curvy hips. She was trying to seduce Joe.

Joe stared at the legs peeking out from under the blanket, momentarily stunned. The sight slowly lit a fire inside him, and he started feeling hot.

But he quickly looked away, telling himself, 'no, no, I can't do this.'

He didn't know what was up with him today. It felt like something was crawling under his skin, making him super restless. But the last bit of his sanity told him he couldn't do this. He loved Sadie and couldn't take advantage of her when she was out of it.

"Sadie, I'm leaving. I'll get Annika to take care of you," Joe said softly.

Joe was about to leave when suddenly a hand shot out from under the blanket and grabbed him.

"Sadie!" Joe was stunned. Before he could react, the hand yanked him onto the bed, and a passionate kiss locked onto his lips.

At the same time, a pair of smooth, tender hands slipped inside his clothes.

Joe's eyes widened in shock, and his whole body stiffened. Instantly, the fire inside him roared to life, and a long-suppressed desire surged like a flood.

He couldn't think straight anymore. He flipped Barbara over and pinned her beneath him, kissing her fiercely and wildly.
