Torn Between Love and Hate

Chapter 63 Joseph Was In Love

Deborah's eyes, which had been dull for the past hall month, lit up the moment she saw the thing in Joseph's hand.

Her heart did a complete somersault, and she breathed fast as she jumped out of the wheelchair and reached for the thing in Joseph's hand

It was a lucky charm Deborah realized that it was the one that Alyssa wore around her neck before.

The flawless silver lucky charm glowed in the moonlight.

Joseph quickly raised the charm to avoid Deborah's hand. 'Why should I give it to you? You're going to die. Do you want to be buried

with it?"

While Deborah was anxious to get the charm, her mind was working fast. She remembered that Jeff had told Ashton that after Alyssa fell off the cliff, the lucky charm was burned black.

But the charm in front of her didn't show any signs of being burned.

When she thought of a certain possibility, her heart started pounding.

Seeing her jumping out of the wheelchair like a rabbit, Joseph was amused. "You seem fine. I thought you were crippled."

Deborah's face was flushed with anxiety in the cold wind. "I'm not crippled. Give me the charm!”

Joseph stopped teasing her, put down his hand, and handed the charm to her.

Deborah wanted to ask him what he wanted, but she bit back the words, looked at Joseph warily, and then quickly took the charm.

She thought Joseph gave her this charm on purpose in exchange for something.

But now she didn't have time to think about it. She took the charm and checked it carefully at once.

Alyssa's name was engraved on the back of the charm by Deborah herself.

The charm could be faked, but Deborah had an impression of the name, which couldn't be imitated by others.

Deborah stared at the charm for a long time before saying in a trembling voice, "This is Alyssa's."

Joseph snorted. "Of course. I have no reason to fake it."

Deborah grasped the charm tremblingly and looked up at Joseph, her eyes full of expectation and eagerness. "Why do you have this? Is Alyssa still alive? Have you seen her?"

Maybe because of the cold wind, Joseph felt that his brain seemed to have jammed, and he replied, "How do I know? I just found it." Deborah grasped the charm carefully with both hands. "Can I take it away?"

She tightened the clasp on the charm as if she was afraid that Joseph would take it from her.

Joseph looked at her with a frown. "Would you give it back to me if I said no?"

Hearing what he said, Deborah immediately put the charm into her pocket.

She knew that Joseph would not help her without asking for anything in return, so she thought about it and said, "You asked me to

help you deal with Ashton. I can help you if you want me to get something for you."

Joseph's mind was all messed up, and he replied absently. "Let's talk about it later."

Deborah was surprised by Joseph's reply. She thought that maybe he would make an offer later, so she didn't say anything more

She put her hand into her pocket and stroked the charm. Distressed, she couldn't help asking Joseph again, "Have you really not seen Alyssa? Alyssa wore this charm around her neck. Since this charm is intact, could she be..."

"I said I don't know." Joseph became a little irritable for no reason, and he raised his voice to interrupt her

Deborah, however, seemed a little dazed Maybe it was because the charm suddenly gave her hope

Did you find it yourself? Where did you find it Did you see anything else around there? Can you take me there to have a look?"

Joseph tamed to go without hesitation Deborah hurriedly chased after him "Please tell me. These things are really important to me Alyssa may still be alive. Please

Joseph pushed her hand imitably said I don't know I gave you the charm for nothing Let me got

As he turned around, he saw that Deborah was in tears.

As she spoke, tears flowed down her cheeks

In the darkness of the night, Deborah looked extremely pitiful

Joseph was stunned and suddenly felt sorry for her for a moment.

Deborah chased after him with pleading eyes. "Have you seen Alyssa? Is she still alive? Please tell me."

Joseph came to his senses slowly and said hesitantly, "She's been staying at my place. I took her home with me

Deborah froze and stared at him with tears in her eyes.

Joseph took out his mobile phone and showed her the video. "She's doing well at my place. She's seen by doctors twenty-four hours a day

"When I found her, she was wearing a seat belt. She took a hard hit to the head, and she couldn't remember anything. She's still alive,

and the doctor said she would survive."

Deborah was stunned for a long time, gasped for breath from crying and laughing, and grabbed Joseph's sleeve.

"Is it true? I'm going to see her. But Ashton said the car caught fire and her body was burnt."

Joseph didn't dare to look at her for some reason, and he looked away. "I don't know. She's still alive anyway. If you want to see her,

come to me later."

Deborah was both happy and anxious, her face covered with tears.

She wanted to say something else, but not far behind, Ashton called her coldly, "Deborah."

Deborah's face froze immediately as if she had just woken up from a dream.

Then she quickly let go and begged in a low voice, "Don't tell Ashton."

Joseph didn't say anything. As soon as she let go, he turned around and headed to the gate of the hospital.

The driver, Shawn, was waiting at the gate of the hospital. Joseph didn't stay in the hospital long before heading back to his car.

Shawn was surprised. "Mr. Black, you finished visiting old Mr. Mullen already?"

Joseph sat in the back seat with a sullen face. He came back to his senses after hearing Shawn's words and said irritably. "I didn't do

1. I forgot."

Shawn was stunned for a moment. "Huh? Didn't you come here to visit old Mr. Mullen? What did you do?"

Joseph became even more annoyed. "I ran into Deborah, and I gave her the lucky charm."

Shawn said, "Oh, that explains it. Did Ms. Shepherd agree?"

Joseph was confused. "Agree on what?"

Shawn felt that Joseph was strange when he came back.

Shawn replied, "Didn't you spend so much effort to restore the burnt lucky charm? Didn't you want to lie to Ms. Shepherd that Alyssa is still alive and with you so that she could work for you?" baeph Really care back to his senses

He almost forget his plan

He already made a decision, but for some reason, when he saw Deborah crying and taughing just now he had a strange feeling for a

Like pits, gul, and a lime bit of regret

In short, he felt sorry for her

Thinking of this reph couldnt help leheng

He had done countless had things and used countless tricks for so many years How could he have pity on a woman?

Seeing that Joseph was absent minded. Shawn drove back to the villa without asking any further questions

On the way, Joseph, who had been silent in the back seat, suddenly asked Shawn, "Do you feel sorry for Deborah?"
