Chapter 1020 You've Done Something Behind My Back
Truth be told, all the actors in the movie were the cream of the crop.
Their dialogue flowed smoothly, comfortable to listen to. When they exchanged words, their rapport was strong.
Gradually, many people grew fascinated and quietly enjoyed the plot of the movie.
Not only were there fewer people talking, but a few people's thoughts started drifting elsewhere.
Joseph still looked over to Waverly subconsciously.
Waverly was looking at the screen, watching the movie carefully. Perhaps due to the light from the screen, her eyes were sparkling and particularly moving.
Joseph regretted letting Waverly come to watch the movie. After all, he had the authority to ban her from attending. He had no idea what had come over him at that time by actually allowing her to come.
The movie came to an end.
One of the actors, who had attended, came forward and gave Bellamy a flower.
Bellamy took it with a smile. The reporters were all taking photos of the scene.
Bellamy stood up and directly walked towards Waverly.
Waverly was nervous as she held her breath. Her hands were clasped tightly under the table.
Bellamy's eyes were sparkling. Everyone could tell that he was walking towards Waverly.
The cameras were also focused on Waverly.
Joseph nervously stood up and frowned.
As soon as he stood up, the other guests who were watching the scene also stood up one after another.
Yasmine's facial expression turned a little strange, following Joseph and standing up. Her face was full of jealousy, envy, and hatred as she stared at Waverly.
Bellamy passed the flower to Waverly and smiled.
He was already handsome to begin with, but his smile right now, under the light, perfected his appearance. He truly was flawless.
Waverly stood up nervously and did not take Bellamy's flowers.
"You are from M Country and you grew up there. In the past, you were too busy. I didn't take good care of M Country and failed to treat you well. Tomorrow, can you come with me and take a look at your home country?" Bellamy asked softly.
Waverly was so shocked that she couldn't help but not reject him.
Previously, he had just said that he would give her flowers and then evoke the public opinions. He had to failed to mention that he wanted her to accompany him.
She was worried for Bellamy's safety. However, being together with him was too much of a temptation for her.
There was too much shock and contradiction in her mind. For a moment, she couldn't say anything.
Bellamy smiled slightly, lowered his head, and kissed her on the cheek.
The crowd burst into fervor, and all kinds of voices and lights constantly flashing in the room.
Waverly's mind was blank, but her heart was full of euphoria.
Bellamy actually kissed her. He had actually taken the initiative to kiss her in front of so many people. She would never forget this scene for the rest of her life.
"If you didn't say anything, I'll take it as a yes," Bellamy put the flowers into her hand and took her hand. "Stay in the palace tonight. I have a lot of things to say to you."
The crowd became even more excited. Since Bellamy had invited her to stay in the palace, wouldn't this become the great reconciliation of the century?
If only she could go back to him. If only she could stay with him.
"I... "
Before Waverly could say anything, she heard a bang. A bullet hit Bellamy.
"No!" Waverly cried out in a panic. She had no time to think. She was afraid that the killer would shoot again, so she stood in front of Bellamy.
The crowd fled in all directions.
Bellamy's bodyguard immediately rushed forward and took Bellamy away.
Waverly was worried about Bellamy's safety, so she followed his bodyguards, but her arm was held back by Joseph.
Joseph said in an overbearing and domineering manner, "Follow me."
Waverly was about to shake off Joseph's hand when she saw Bellamy getting farther and farther away.
If Bellamy were to die, then she didn't want to live, either.
"If you want him to die, just follow him. The palace is full of my people. It's easy for me to kill him," Joseph said angrily.
Waverly came to her senses, and her eyes were red. She asked, "Did you shoot him?"
Joseph curled his lips and stared at Waverly. He kept on staring and said coldly, "No. Come with me now."
Waverly shook her head. Worried about Bellamy, she looked in the direction where he disappeared.
Joseph gritted his teeth and ordered Yadriel who was beside him, "Take her away."
"Yes, Mr. Mccarthy," Yadriel said nothing else as he picked up Waverly. No matter how hard she struggled, he didn't let go of her. Then, he pushed Waverly into the car.
Waverly was about to get out of the car when Yadriel locked the door.
Waverly tried her best to break the door apart.
"I advise you to save your efforts. The car has been remodeled. Even if you leave now, you won't be able to save Bellamy. If you anger Mr. Mccarthy, Bellamy will only die even faster," Yadriel said unhappily.
"I'm only going to go take a look at him. When I see that he is safe and sound, I will leave. Let me go," Waverly almost pleaded.
"If you go on like this, you'll only be provoking Mr. Mccarthy."
Waverly was enraged and said, "Why would I anger Joseph if I go take a look at Bellamy? He won't be so unreasonable and domineering. I want to get out of the car! I want to get out!"
The car door opened.
The hope inside Waverly ignited and she got ready to get out.
Just as she popped her head out, Joseph gave her a hard push into the car. He gritted his teeth and released his anger by pressing the back of her head and kissing her on the lips.
Rather than a kiss, it was more like a punishment. He was simply biting down on her lips.
Waverly only felt pain. She pushed him away desperately and used all her strength.
He was like a sculpture that was made of steel and not moving at all.
"Ah!" Waverly tried her best to push him away. As she could not push him away, she started punching him. Then, she scratched him. Finally, she pinched him.
Joseph didn't let go of her until he kissed her for more than three minutes. His eyes were bloodshot and filled with overwhelming anger.
Waverly was still enraged. She slapped Joseph on the face.
Joseph didn't dodge. He endured her slap and three fingerprints appeared on his face.
Joseph tensed every muscle on his face, and his eyes were full of killing intent. He wore a smirk on his face, but it was more dangerous, like a devil from hell. He said in a cold voice, "I'm going to kill him now."
Waverly held onto Joseph's arm in fear and said, "You promised me that you wouldn't kill him!"
"And what did you promise me in return?" Joseph raised his volume and shouted.
"I refused the flowers, didn't I?" Waverly's voice was higher than his.
"So, do you think I'm blind to not sense that you did something behind my back? Don't tell me that you didn't know that he would give you the flowers and let you receive them. Don't tell me that you didn't know that he wanted you to stay in the palace!"
"I really didn't know about all that. Did I agree to that? I didn't! You can't be so unreasonable," Waverly was so anxious that she was about to cry.
At that moment, Bellamy's life was hanging by a thread. If Joseph wanted to kill him, it would be incredibly easy for him to do so.
Moreover, just as she had predicted before, if Bellamy died in the palace, Ronaldo would bear all the responsibility. Judging by his current power and influence, Joseph would be able to become the emperor.
By then, he would definitely kill Bellamy!!!
