Chapter 324

"Why did you even bother to bring her back? Don't you know that public figures like you, Joseph, areconstantly covered by a lot of eyes and cameras?" Lola couldn't figure out why her brother would makesuch a silly mistake. He was not a rookie at all!

Joseph couldn't deny that he made a mistake. He could only just scratch his head. "Only Lillian canhelp me. I don't do anything wrong, okay?" She was in Joseph's apartment last night. The reporterswould shut up if only she could be seen walking out together with him.

However, Joseph was not sure whether Lillian was still upset. He could not risk her health right now.

"You want Lillian to save you? She's so kind that she didn't even kill you for what you did." Lolaanswered sarcastically. If such things should happen to Harry, she couldn't imagine what she'd do tohim...

Stop thinking about that! Lola shook her head immediately. How crazy!

"What do you mean by saving me, my sister? I'm innocent. Okay?"

"Innocent? Didn't you take that woman to your home last night?"

"I have. But it doesn't mean that we did something wrong!" But he sent her away then. She didn't evensleep there.

Lola doubted how her brother survived in the entertainment circle for years. "You are not innocent sinceyou have let her in."

… Joseph started to agree with his sister. She had a point. He was at fault in this matter.

"I'll wait for Lillian to wake up. And I'll talk with her right away." The door of the bedroom opened whileJoseph was still speaking.

"I have to hang up, Lola. She's up now." Joseph immediately hung up the phone and rushed in front ofLillian. He greeted her with a voice as sweet as he could make, "Good morning, Honey."

What a "good" morning. Lillian just gave him a cold stare. His phone has never stopped ringing.

She already knew what was going on. She saw 999 Weibo messages on the phone screen notificationjust now.

She turned the silent mode on. There were still dozens of missed calls.

Joseph gave up when he saw Lillian having so much difficulty in walking around. He could handle thisby himself like a man.

"Go and wash yourself, honey. Let's have breakfast after." Joseph would rather eat with his wife beforehe went to work.

Lillian was puzzled as to why Joseph did not say anything about the matter. After all, nobody could helphim but her.

Lillian dressed herself up after washing and walked out of the apartment together with Joseph. Sheheld his hand as they walked slowly.

Surprised, Joseph looked at Lillian's hand and asked, "You already believe me?"

Lillian didn't answer. She pressed the elevator button and stepped in.

The silence caused Joseph to be a bit upset.

Outside the apartment, the media were anxiously waiting for Joseph and the young actress. At thesight of Lillian, they all got so confused. Their mouths gaped open in bewilderment.

Where was Cassie? Wasn't she there? How could the pregnant Lillian appear at this time?

Confused as they were, the media crowded around and poured out their questions. They neverconsidered that crowding the couple would force the pregnant Lillian into a tough situation.

"Mr. Newman, can you explain what happened last night?"

"Mrs. Newman, what do you think of your husband's infidelity?"

"Mr. Newman, how long have you been dating Cassie?"

The media had already jumped to conclusions.

Lillian just listened to their questions, scorning their shamelessness. She put on a smile and openedher mouth, "Please listen to me."

The reporters quieted down. Only the clicking of cameras can be heard.

Joseph looked at the woman beside him as well. He didn't mean to let her speak on his behalf. But hewould listen now that she has decided to speak out.

"There's a misunderstanding. I arrived here yesterday afternoon. My husband called me last night,saying a colleague of him was drunk, and asking me whether he could take her home and let her stayfor a while. I agreed because it was more inconvenient for him to go to a hotel."

Lillian explained, then took out the plane ticket from her bag to prove her arrival time.

She continued, "We didn't expect those reporters to begin writing some fake news. Besides, thatcolleague was soon sent back her home by my husband's agent. Because it was inconvenient for herto stay here. You could ask both of them if you want to be sure."

Immersed in the soft voice of his wife, Joseph was lost in his thoughts. She was willing to believe him,and more importantly, she spoke for him. She loved and cared for him so much.

After finishing her words, Lillian gave her husband a pinch. Joseph immediately came back to hissenses. "Yes, that's the truth. The magazines and the reporters who have been making up storiescould wait for the lawsuits from our company. We will follow up this matter. Thanks!"

"So it is..."

All the reporters were in an uproar, but the truth had been clear as Lillian came out of the apartmenttogether with Joseph. Yet, some reporters did not give up. They want more statements to put on theirarticle.

"Mrs. Newman, could you please explain why it was inconvenient for Cassie to stay? You agreed totake Cassie to the apartment, but you have said that it is inconvenient. Aren't your words contradicteach other?"

"Yeah, Mrs. Newman, could you explain that?"

Seeing these ferocious reporters, Lillian doubted whether they had professional ethics or not. Theydidn't even think that she was pregnant.

At that time, Joseph gave a stare at the reporters before putting his arm around his wife's waist, andsaid, "Are there anything left to explain? Of course, I need a secret space with my wife after such along time of not seeing each other."

…… Holding her anger back, Lillian lowered her head and grumbled about the shameless words of herhusband.

All the reporters burst in a mystical laughter. Soon after, they reported all the information they got onthe Internet.

At the same time, Joseph's company also released an indictment on the Internet. The signature of thelawyer at the lower right corner really shocked everyone -- it's Samuel!

Those magazines spreading rumors were dead meat. They would never recover their business again.

Watching the video online, Harry saw no need to act on it. He just needed to contact Samuel.

So could he take credit from his woman? After all, Samuel was not a lawyer who is easy to approach.

Just a few hours after noon, all rumors about Joseph were proved wrong. Some magazines evenpublished their letters of apology as early as they could. But, it was still too late.

Following his wife everywhere, Joseph began to comfort Lillian by all means. "You are so kind,sweetheart, I love you, love you, love you!"

Not in the mood to speak to him, Lillian opened the car door and sat inside.

"Let me help fasten your seat belt, my dear. I love you!" Oh, so many "love you"! Lillian couldn't stand itanymore.

"You are too disgusting and annoying, Joseph!" Such a childish man, she thought. She gave a coldstare to the grinning face in front of her.

But he gave her a kiss on her cheeks. "I can do anything you want me to do once you're not angryanymore."

……. Squinting at him, Lillian answered, "Was this the way you took that girl home?"

Joseph put on a disappointed face immediately. Already irritated, he replied, "Never mention thatwoman to me! I won't cooperate with her and that director anymore. I'll tell Harry tomorrow to send himto Mauritius."
