A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband

Chapter 250 

In the study room, Aubree and Skyler were both there. 

Jake naturally wouldn’t let Rory come over. After all, in his eyes, Old Master was someone who was on Joseph’s side. 

Until now, the father and son had been almost diametrically opposed. 

Ever since Quinn, Joseph’s birth mother, committed suicide, it seemed that their father-son relationship had become only 

nominal. 

The gap between them had worsened once again because of Chloe. 

However, this scene was what Aubree wanted to see the most. 

Only when they were at each other’s camp would she be able to take advantage of the chaos to gain benefits from Sawle Group! 

Taking ten thousand steps back, Jake was the father of this bastard. So what if he was a monkey king? Wasn’t he still going to be pressed under the Five Finger Mountain? 

“I called you here to inform you of something.” 

Jake sat on the sofa with a cold face and casually threw a fresh printed letter of appointment in front of Joseph, “I have decided to officially hire Johan as Sawle Group’s legal consultant and also the director of the group’s legal department.” This appointment will be issued tomorrow. I have already signed it, so I don’t need you, the president, to sign it. 

Aubree and her daughter secretly smiled proudly. 

“I don’t agree.” Joseph said without hesitation. 

“I don’t need you to agree. It’s enough for me to agree. Johan is a rare talent. Don’t you know how important it is to accept an excellent lawyer to a consortium?” 

“You should have heard the conversation between Chloe and Johan clearly, right?” 

“That kind of ungrateful, selfish, and unscrupulous lawyer, did you call him over because you wanted to associate with him?”. Joseph sneered. 

“You! You arrogant unfilial son!” 

Jake suddenly stood up, and because his movements were too big, his vision went dark. Fortunately, Aubree caught him in time. 

“Jake, don’t be angry. Being angry is harmful to the body!” She stroked her husband’s back and laughed in her heart. 

Thorp family has been a great help to Stewart family. His family is taken care of by Director Thorp. Even his own brother, Jordan, works for KS Group. Even so, he still has a rebellious heart. For his own selfish desire, he broke his promise. 

“Do 

you think you can control such a person? In the future, if someone offers more tempting conditions, do you think he can still obediently stay with Sawle Group and be used by you?” Joseph hit the nail on the head, not giving him any face. 

“Joseph! You are just making excuses for yourself to protect that ghost girl Chloe!” 

At this moment, there were no outsiders present. Jake finally stopped holding back. He was so angry that his eyes were red as he roared, “You are so protective of her… Could it be that you are moved by that loathsome girl!” 

“So what if I am moved?” Joseph lightly opened his thin lips and lightly spat out a few words. 

Only the heavens knew that his heartbeat at this moment was so fast that it seemed as if it was about to fly over! 

When he heard these words, Jake was like he was struck by lightning and was fiercely stunned! 

Aubree and Skyler probably did not expect him to give such an answer, and they were also stunned. 

They couldn’t tell whether Joseph had genuine feelings for Chloe or if he was just trying to defy Jake by saying something quickly 

After all, this evil creature had only been stupid once in his life, and that was to be with Grace and abandon the beautiful Chloe, who was the daughter of heaven. 

“Joseph! You want to come to me to find regret medicine? There is no way!” 

“Let me tell you, even if you fall in love with Chloe, you should cut off your thoughts as soon as possible and give up on that idea!” Jake was furious. 

“As long as I live for a day, I will never agree to you being with that wretched girl Thorp family!” 

“I knew she was Stefan’s daughter… I would never let you marry her back then! I let her fool our family for three years and let her delay you for three years in vain!” 

His lips and tongue pierced through Joseph’s chest like a thousand arrows. 

In an instant, his eyes reddened with anger. His dark pupils narrowed into two sharp, cold stars, radiating a burning hatred.

Joseph picked up the crystal ashtray from the coffee table, raised his arm high, and then smashed it on the ground in the next second. 

Pa -! 

“Ah!” 

Jake trembled all over, and Aubree and Skyler screamed out in fear! 

The crystal smoke jar fell to the ground, breaking into pieces, and sharp pieces of debris flew everywhere. 

Some of them were so loud that they directly cut Aubree’s skirt and arms, causing blood to leak out. She was shocked and angry, and almost cried on the spot! 

“Chloe did nothing wrong. What right do you have to talk about her?” 

“What’s wrong with her marrying me? After three years of marriage, how did she let me down? Did she let you down? Did she let Sawle family down?” 

“I let her down. It was the entire Sawle family who let her down! If anyone says no to her, even if it is you, don’t blame me for being merciless!” 

This look… 

It was this again. It was as if the eyes of both humans and demons came from the Asura Realm of carnage! 

Jake held his breath and his lips trembled. 

Back then, when Quinn jumped down from upstairs, the young Joseph hugged his mother’s bloody body tightly. When he looked at his late father, it was just like this, the same gaze! 

He hated it, he hated it, but he was even more afraid! 

Now, for the sake of a mere Chloe, he actually wanted to shed all pretenses with his biological father? 

Aubree and Skyler originally wanted to see Joseph laugh at them, but in the end, they didn’t see the joke and instead. received a shock. 

They didn’t even dare to breathe heavily. 

Joseph closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He felt that there was no need to say anything more and turned around to 

leave. 

“Joseph!” 

Jake called his name in a hoarse voice, his voice trembling. “You are protecting Thorp family’s daughter like this… Are you going to stand with Thorp family and disobey me, your biological father?” 

“Don’t forget what your surname is. Don’t forget whose blood is flowing in your body. Don’t forget, if I didn’t support you, how could you sit in a high position? How could you have power throughout Sawle Group!” 

Old topics are discussed with no new ideas. 

Joseph heard this and felt bored. 

“If you dare to go against me… believe it or not, I will make you roll down from the position of president! Believe it or not, I will make you not even a fart!” Jake was simply hysterical. 

Even as a wife, Aubree had never seen him so angry. 

“If you want to do this, then do it. If you really have the courage, then do it.” 

Joseph slowly looked behind him. His gaze seemed to have been cut off from the world. It was so resolute that it was soul-stirring. “For her, I don’t mind becoming enemies with the entire Sawle Group.” 

Just as Joseph left the study room, his straight and broad shoulders drooped. He felt as if his soul had been sucked out. 

“Joseph.” 

A gentle voice sounded. His eyes turned red and he saw Rory appear in front of him. 

Just now, he was completely immersed in his complicated emotions and did not realize that there was someone in the corridor, 

The old man did not change into his pajamas. It was still the same gown he came from. It seemed that he had no intention of spending the night with Mazeland Manor. 

Ever since his grandmother left and Jake married Aubree, he felt that this place was no longer his home. Morning Moon Bay, who was in the mountains, was his home. 

“Grandfather…” 

Joseph said softly. He found that his voice was very hoarse and even choked. 

“I heard everything you said to your father in the study room.” 

Rory was sitting in a wheelchair, so it was not convenient for him to stand up. Joseph obediently leaned over, making it convenient for his grandfather to touch him. 

“Although talking back to your father is impolite, but… hehe, this time, we want to go together!” 

“I also don’t want that Johan to enter Sawle Group. Your idea is right, the mercenary is not in line with our corporate culture!” 

“Don’t worry, although my old man has retired, I have not completely retreated.” 

“I will still keep my word. If your father insists, I will stop him.” 

“Grandpa, as the president, this matter should be handled by me. You should enjoy your later years and stop worrying about these messy things.” Joseph did not want to move his grandfather into action for such a small matter. That was really unfilial. 

“It’s fine, it’s fine! Use the remaining heat! Hey, hey…” 

Rory blinked his eyes and asked expectantly, “Just now, you said that you wanted to protect Raya and even said that you were tempted by him… Are you serious?” 

Joseph’s eyes widened and his heart beat like a drum. 

After a while, his Adam’s apple rolled and he replied in a deep voice, “I was angry for a moment, but I didn’t think too much 

about it.” 

“Tsk, alright! Since you don’t want to admit it, then it’s up to you!” Rory was a little disappointed. 

“Grandfather,” Joseph frowned. 

“Let’s go. Send me back. I’m bored on my own. You can chat with me!” 

“Alright.” 

Joseph wheeled the grandfather and grandson to the other end of the corridor. 

The old man, his back to him, revealed a playful smile. 

Such a silly boy. 

The words that he blurted out were the words in his heart.
