Chapter 202

Ronald nodded.

The two cabs went in different directions.

When Lucille returned to the Jules Residence, Molly rushed over happily. Seeing that she didn't have an umbrella, Molly raised her hands to shield her from the rain and complained, "Lucille, you went out in the rain again!" "It's fine."

Lucille stepped into the villa. She changed her shoes, took off her coat, and glanced into the living room. She saw no sign of Joseph, so she casually asked the maid beside her, "Is Joseph at home?

The maid answered with a smile, "Mr. Joseph is in the study on the second floor, Mrs. Collins."

"Oh, okay."

Lucille pondered for a moment before she went upstairs.

It just so happened that she had something to discuss with Joseph.

She had accepted the task regarding the missing cases in Niterol City and was going to set off at the end of the month. It would take at least ten days to half a month.

What kind of excuse was she going to come up with so that Joseph wouldn't suspect her? She needed to get him to agree for her to increase the dosage of the treatment. Lucille thought about it as she walked and soon arrived at the door of the study.

Waked Over Gracefully

Walked Over Gracefully

Speaking of which, it was her first time stepping into Joseph's study ever since the wall between their houses was torn down.

The door was very thick and had a double fingerprint password lock. The sound insulation was very good. She couldn't hear a single thing going on Inside even if she put her ear to the door.

Lucille was not interested in invading other people's privacy. She walked over gracefully and then raised her hand to knock on the door.

Knock, knock, knock.

Two seconds later, the door opened.

Culver walked out of the room and bowed to Lucille. "What's the matter, Mrs. Collins?"

"I'm looking for Joseph."

This time, Culver did not need to deliver the message. In the study, Joseph spoke in his low and magnetic voice. "Come in." Lucille walked in.

The study was very large. The few bookshelves inside were completely filled with books. The whole room was neat and spotless.

Sitting in front of the desk, Joseph casually threw a document into the drawer when Lucille came in. With a smile on his face, he asked lazily, "What is it, Honey?"

The way he addressed her was full of teasing.

Lucille ignored him and went straight to the point. "I'm here to tell you that the poison in your body will be completely suppressed in a few days as long as we increase the dosage. I'm going to visit Yoshua at the end of the month. If you don't mind, how about I adjust the dosage for you from today onward?"

Since it was a critical situation, she used Yoshua as a cover.

There was no excuse more effective than that.noveldrama

As expected, Joseph had no doubts at all. He agreed with a chuckle.

"It's up to you, Honey."

He was doing it again...

Lucille's face was calm and she didn't get shy at all She simply replied, "That's settled then." Then, she turned around and left the study.

Watching Lucille's retreating figure, Culver closed the door of the study room. After making sure that no one could hear him, he said, "Mr. Joseph, since Mrs. Collins can ensure that the toxins in your body won't act up for the next couple of days, then the task in Niterol City..

I'll accept it."

There was no trace of a smile on Joseph's handsome face anymore. He stretched out his slender hand and retrieved the document that he had just thrown into the drawer.

There were all types of characters, symbols, numbers, and other things on it. Ordinary people would only think that it was just a messy document, but in reality, it was Morse code, which only a few people could understand.

If it were to be translated, the message that was sent would be...

"The missing person cases in Niterol City are of great importance. I hope that you can help, Lord

of Border!"

Joseph had a quick glance at it and slowly threw the document into the shredder.

There was the buzzing sound of metal-turning, and the pages of paper were completely turned. into shreds that could no longer be pieced together.

Joseph's slender fingers tapped on the surface of the table rhythmically. It was casual, yet filled with an innate sense of arrogance and nobility.

"Apparently, Lone Shadow will be accepting the task about the disappearances in Nitèrol City," he remarked.

The corners of Joseph's lips curled up into a smile. His eyes were so bright that one could not take their eyes off them..

"We're finally about to meet. I'm really... looking forward to it."
