Chapter 777
Joseph was shocked.
Yes, Megan had been outside for a few years, and during those years, Joseph had no idea what had happened.
How could Joseph know if Megan had changed?
Mabel had not completely grasped Marcus in thirty years, whereas he had only been with Megan for twenty years.
"Joseph, you are not an average person. You are the leader of the Hernandez group, a person on the Madison Pyramid. Your marriage garners more attention than others. You've been divorced once, and if something goes wrong again the second time, it will tarnish your reputation. ."
Mabel stood up seriously and said, "Think carefully."
After she finished speaking, she turned and left.
Joseph sat alone in his office chair for a long time until he heard a gentle knock on the door from outside. Then, Sophia's little head peeked in from outside, "Uncle Joseph, can I come in?"
Seeing Sophia's careful and pleasing appearance would make Joseph very happy, even if he was in a bad mood.
"Sophia, aren't you supposed to be at school today?" Joseph noticed that she was still wearing a red school uniform.
"Grandma said you were in a bad mood and asked me to come and keep you company," Sophia said, tilting her head.
Joseph suddenly felt warm.
Joseph never expected that Mabel would care about him as well.
"Uncle Joseph, this is for you." Sophia said as she ran to Joseph, awkwardly climbed onto his lap, and opened her palm to reveal the chocolate inside. "Whenever I feel upset, eating some chocolate helps me stop crying."
Joseph looked at Sophia with a smile until she pushed the chocolate into his mouth.
Joseph rarely ate sweets, but at this moment, the sweetness lingered in his mouth.
"Uncle Joseph, are you feeling better now?" Sophia asked, looking at him with her innocent eyes .
"Much better, thank you, Sophia." Joseph rubbed Sophia's head.
"Uncle Joseph, you smell kind of stinky..." Sophia suddenly said with a disgusted look.
Joseph felt embarrassed. He had not slept much in the past few days and had not even taken a shower.
"I've been busy with work lately and forgot to shower. Just wait here, and I'll go inside and freshen up." Joseph awkwardly turned on the TV for Sophia.
"Okay." Sophia sat on the sofa and watched cartoons.
Joseph cleaned himself thoroughly in the bathroom, from head to toe, and even shaved his beard. He emerged wearing black trousers and a white shirt, emitting a handsome and elegant presence.
Sophia's eyes sparkled, "Uncle Joseph, you look so handsome. Would you like to go on a date?
Joseph was speechless, "Sophia, do you know what a date is?"
"I watch TV, and they always talk about going on dates," Sophia giggled. "Can we go to the amusement park? I really want to go."
"Sure."
Joseph immediately agreed.
Working in the office every day was dull for Joseph, but he preferred to stay in rather than going out and encountering Michael and Lucas.
If it was Sophia, Joseph was more than happy to spend time with her.
When they parked near the amusement park, Sophia's smartwatch beeped, "Sophia, I'm at the entrance. Where are you guys?
