After the Sister May left, Larissa's entire body sank into a state of fear and unease. She stumbled out of the chair and ran into her bedroom and took out her luggage, wanting to pack her things and quickly leave.

When she threw her clothes into the box, she stopped moving. Finally, she sat down on the floor in pain and worry. One of her hands supported her forehead; she was extremely pessimistic.

"I can't escape. Even if I run to the ends of the earth, I won't be able to escape from them." That Sister May was even more ruthless than Barry. Since she had personally come to threaten, then it meant that she had made all the preparations and would not let her easily escape.

"Do I have to fight to the death?" Larissa muttered to herself as she hopelessly looked out the window at the night sky.

Just as Larissa's face was ashen, Edwards had already pulled out an encrypted phone to give Joseph, and chat with him about the information he had.

"Larissa? Who is she?" Joseph was currently standing in front of the window in the Grant family's second floor bedroom, staring out of it like a cold moon. The winter night was dark, like a giant net that could swallow people whole.

"I'm not sure either. I've investigated her information and she's pretty innocent, but she's obviously a trap set up for me by the Old President. You should replace someone to watch over her; maybe you'll get something out of it." Edwards replied calmly.

"Alright, I will replace someone to watch her closely. Since she is someone arranged by Old President, you should be careful too. I'm afraid that this woman is a beauty who would bite, so don't be fooled." Joseph's tone was a little joking. After all, they were both men. The saddest thing for a man is that the beauty.

With regards to women, you don't have to worry about me. On the other hand, I heard that you are soon going to be engaged to that big miss of the Miller Family. Edwards also ridiculed him.

"I only have one thought, marry her!" Joseph's tone became more serious.

"Is that so? Who said that they would think of a way to reject the marriage?" Edwards laughed and joked.

"Edwards, I'm really going to beg you to be lenient with your words. I also did not expect that I would arrive at my current stage. I didn't expect that I would fall in love with her." Joseph also started to mock himself. Of course, he was still very happy in his heart.

"If you fall in, don't even think about out of the love. She's definitely a good girl; otherwise, it's not worth it for you to think about her day and night." When Edwards said the first sentence, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Can't we still have a good chat? Your words make me blush, what do you mean by 'can't pull it out'? You make it sound like I'm very shameless." Joseph was speechless.

"Don't men like to chat more directly? You can still blush? I really want to see it." Edwards laughed even more complacently.

"I really should ask my sister-in-law to control your mouth properly. Otherwise, if I go out and take liberties with other women, I will definitely play one game after another." Joseph was even bigger than Edwards, which was why he called himself sister-in-law.

"No, no, no, you definitely can't tell her. She's a coward, she'll definitely argue with me for half a day." Joseph had accurately had been found his shortcoming, causing him to no longer dare to joke around. "Heh. Young Master Wayne is indeed a good husband's role model. After I get married, I'll have to learn more from you." Joseph finally turned the tables on him and had the chance to tease him. "Alright, we'll share this problem when you get married." Edwards laughed heartily.

After hanging up, Joseph called his assistant, Warren, and told him to keep an eye on this woman.

Joseph went downstairs and saw his sister sitting cross-legged on the sofa eating snacks, giggling at the male lead in the TV series.

"How's your homework? I heard you did your homework in a mess." Joseph was still considered to be a very dutiful brother, since young, he had started to take advantage of his younger sister's studies. However, since they were both children of the Grant family, the gap between the two of them was extremely large.

"No, I passed all my exams this year!" Wendy immediately said confidently.

"You've only passed the mark, and you're still proud of it?" Joseph had nothing to say.

"It was you who said it; it would be great if I could pass!" Wendy immediately pouted with grievance.

Joseph sat by his sister's side and looked at her seriously: "Why can't you just study seriously? Tell me, what is the reason?"

Wendy was most afraid that her brother would use such a serious tone to talk to her. She shrunk her neck and quickly stuffed a potato chip into her mouth, then closed her mouth and did not say a word. "Don't tell me you have long been in love with a scholar?" Joseph guessed the reason in a low voice.

"No, no, absolutely not!" Wendy quickly answered as she vaguely opened her mouth and waved her hands anxiously.

"Then why are your results so poor? You know what? A few days ago, when a minister was chatting, he mentioned his son and heard that he was in the same class as you and that he was one of the top students. I'm too embarrassed to share your problems with others." Joseph looked helpless.

"Brother, can you lower your requirements for me? I also read books seriously, and fought my way up until late into the night every day. I don't know why, but even if I can't remember it all, there's nothing I can do about it." Wendy's pretty face was about to cry, she was most afraid of talking about life with her excellent brother.

"Then what do you remember in your head every day?" Joseph was also troubled by his life. It was this good-for-nothing sister that made him deeply feel that the Grant family's child might not necessarily be born outstanding. If he were to have such a daughter in the future, what kind of headache would he have?

"It is not my fault, My parents gave birth to me at the age of thirty-three, and I was still malnourished when I was born, only four pounds. I was born before I was even a full month old, and I was sent to live in a thermostat for half a month. I'm sure my brain didn't develop well at that time. Otherwise, I must be as good as big brother." Although Wendy was young, she had a good eloquence. When it comes to reason, it's a set of rules.

Joseph's pair of beautiful eyes instantly widened, could this also be considered a reason?

Wendy looked at her big brother with her pair of deer-like eyes, blinking, as if this was her final reason.

"Alright, I won't be able to control you!" Joseph could only give up. After all, he had spoiled his little sister since she was young.

"With big brother protecting me, I don't have anything to worry about in this lifetime." Wendy had a smug look on her face.

"What if you fall in love with an outstanding man in the future and he despises you for being not outstanding enough? What will you do then?" Joseph placed the most realistic question in front of her, allowing her to answer.

"What can we do? Destiny is very strange, maybe the more outstanding a man, the more he loves a fool like me? Just like Big Bro and Sister-in-law Alvina, Big Bro also said that he would definitely not fall in love with her. But now you really like her much!" As Wendy finished her sentence, she threw Joseph a playful smile.

Joseph was speechless; he had no choice but to give up his education.

"Bro, can I play with Sister-in-law?" The last time I saw her, I felt that she was a very easy-going person, very similar to me in personality. I'm sure we can get along." Wendy asked with anticipation. "Not now. When the political situation stabilizes, you will meet every day." Joseph shook his head.

"Big brother, although I don't care about politics, I'm worried for you. You and sister-in-law must love each other well, be together, and give birth to a pair of cute little nephews. Mom said that she really wants to hug her grandson." Wendy immediately urged.

Joseph's handsome face slightly blushed as he glared at his sister. "Kids are not allowed to speak carelessly!"

"I'm going to be eighteen soon, I am an adult!" Wendy rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction.

Joseph suddenly recalled the scene from that night, when the girl laid on the bed with her back facing up, suddenly feeling hot air flowing through his body, causing him to quickly turn around and go upstairs.
