Chapter 995 I Want To Eat You
She looked out of the window as the car drove out from the mansion.
Joseph stood by the window and watched her car pull away.
Yasmine stood behind Joseph and put her arms around him, whining affectionately, "I drove for almost half an hour just to get here from home. I even got up an extra hour earlier than usual. I'm so sleepy now."
Joseph turned around and looked at her. He leaned against the windowsill and coaxed, "Next time, I'll go to your place for breakfast so you won't have to rush over."
"It will be very hard on you too if you had to come to my place. Why don't I move in? We are getting married this year anyway. I told my mother about this idea yesterday, and she agreed." Yasmine said as she walked towards Joseph and leaned against his chest.
Joseph stared at her and asked, "Once we are married, we will have all the time together. I'm just worried that you won't be able to catch your breath because of me."
"You're so annoying." Yasmine hit Joseph playfully and rolled her eyes. "Joseph, you wouldn't hide a girl in here, would you?"
Joseph pinched her nose and teased, "You guessed it right, you are so smart. Why don't I bring you around and see if you can find her."
"Humph, you think I won't?" Yasmine pouted her mouth and hinted for a kiss.
"I'll look for her with you. Let's go now and catch her off guard," Joseph joked as he held Yasmine's hand and walked out of the door.
"Alright, I'm just fooling around. I'm definitely not going to look for her. It will make me appear graceless." Yasmine pulled her hand back.
"I know you're the most graceful person ever. Did you think that I called you over just to mess with you?" Joseph said.
"What do you mean?" Yasmine was confused.
Joseph pushed the door open.
There were roses all over the place, forming a heart shape. At the center of the roses sat a limited edition Louis Vuitton bag.
Yasmine picked up the bag, and her eyes were shining bright with excitement. "I tried to buy this bag before, but I didn't manage to. How did you get this?"
"This is a limited edition bag, and there are only a few of them worldwide. I ordered this from a friend a while back," Joseph explained.
"Aren't you worried that I would already have a similar piece?" Yasmine asked softly.
"Then, I'll give it to Madam Lenny," Joseph replied.
"I like this bag very much. I like it a lot," Yasmine laughed happily.
The corner of his mouth twitched, but there was no warmth in his eyes.
If he gave this bag to Waverly, she definitely would not like it.
She was not interested in bags or jewelry at all.
"Let's go. I'll send you to work," Joseph urged.
Yasmine nodded and put all her belongings into her new bag. She kept looking at the bag, admiring its details and design. It was obvious just how much she adored it.
Joseph wanted to buy one for Waverly too when she saw how much it appealed to Yasmine.
With this thought in mind, he sent a text message to Joshua, telling him to handle this.
Then, Joseph drove Yasmine to work in her car.
"You should come to my place for dinner tonight," Yasmine invited.
Joseph glanced at her and asked, "You know how to cook?"
Yasmine shook her head. "No, but my mom found a multiple award-winning chef. His cooking skills are impressive. Speaking of chefs, since Bellamy is coming to M Country, Ronaldo has assigned Waverly to look after the matter, and she proposed to cook for Bellamy. Don't you think it's weird that she wants to cook her Bellamy? What was she thinking?"
Joseph's face fell, and he looked at the front with a cold expression. "You've agreed to this?"
"I proposed to hold a cooking competition," Yasmine admitted.
"Has the itinerary been arranged?" Joseph asked, seemingly casual.
"Yes, everything has been arranged. The tentative itinerary for Bellamy's visit to M Country would be for three days. The first day will be spent in the Royal Palace. The king and his queen, together with a few grandsons, would welcome them personally. Then, at night, they will watch a movie in the palace. A cooking competition has been arranged the next day from ten in the morning to one in the afternoon. After that, they will head to the museum, visit the moat, and have dinner at five in the evening. Then, there will be a performance at the moat at ten past eight. On the third day, from ten in the morning to noon, there will be a visit to the weapons academy. Lunch will take place from noon to two in the afternoon, followed by some rest time. Bellamy will be heading back after that," Yasmine explained.
Joseph's eyebrow bunched closely together, and concern flashed through his eyes. "And you want Waverly to be present for everything on the itinerary?"
"Of course not. I don't know what Bellamy was thinking. Why would he want Waverly overseeing his visit? Didn't Waverly cheat on him? That woman is a fox at flirting. A friend of mine told me that even Yazoo fell in love with her at first sight," Yasmine commented unpleasantly.
Suddenly, Joseph put the pedal to the metal and the car sped up.
Yasmine subconsciously held onto the door handle and questioned, "If Bellamy knew what Waverly was doing in private, I wonder what he would think of her?"
All of a sudden, Joseph slammed on the brakes.
Yasmine's body lunged forward and she hurt herself. She turned to Joseph in confusion, "What are you doing? Why are you driving like this?"
Joseph was silent as he stared at the space in front of him. There were mixed emotions in his eyes, and soon his face became unreadable. "Would you like me to make a move?"
"What?" Yasmine thought for a moment and gasped, "You want to kill Waverly?"
"I can't possibly kill her. She's the former Mrs. President, and she's from the Mccarthy family. But it's not entirely impossible for me to stop her from attending the event," Joseph added in a deep voice.
"The problem is that these are all Ronaldo's instructions. If I don't allow her to attend, the Department of External Affairs will be at a disadvantage. You know that my mother keeps a low profile, so she will definitely comply," Yasmine speculated.
"What if she voluntarily quit because of Yazoo?" Joseph retorted.
"Voluntarily quit? Because of Yazoo? Will she?" Yasmine didn't really buy it.
"It depends on whether you want to do it or not. If you want to, I'll see that this is taken care of. If you don't, then just forget I said anything," Joseph continued,
"I want to," Yasmine answered without hesitation. "I hope she will disappear from the Department of External Affairs as soon as possible."
The corner of his mouth twitched, but he didn't respond.
After a while, the car stopped at the entrance of the Department of External Affairs.
Yasmine got out of the car and waved at Joseph. "Be careful on the road. See you tonight."
Joshua returned the car key to her.
Yasmine took her key and looked over at Joseph charmingly. She then made a heart-shaped gesture at him.
Joseph noticed that someone was watching from the building, so Yasmine's gestures went unnoticed. He raised his head and saw Waverly standing by the window, staring down at him coldly.
He curled up the corner of his mouth, rolled up the window, and drove away.
Waverly's cell phone rang. When she saw that it was Joseph, she frowned and answered.
"When you're done with work, go back home straight. I want to come over for dinner. I want to eat your home-cooked dishes, especially your best dishes." Joseph gave her no room for excuses as he ordered in a firm tone.
