Cosset You Forever

Chapter 324 Are There Anything Left to Explain

"Why did you even bother to bring her back? Don't you know that public figures like you, Joseph Li, are constantly covered by a lot of eyes and cameras?" Lola couldn't figure out why her brother would make such a silly mistake. He was not a rookie at all!

Joseph couldn't deny that he made a mistake. He could only just scratch his head. "Only Lillian can help me. I don't do anything wrong, okay?" She was in Joseph's apartment last night. The reporters would shut up if only she could be seen walking out together with him.

However, Joseph was not sure whether Lillian was still upset. He could not risk her health right now.

"You want Lillian to save you? She's so kind that she didn't even kill you for what you did." Lola answered sarcastically. If such things should happen to Harry, she couldn't imagine what she'd do to him...

Stop thinking about that! Lola shook her head immediately. How crazy!

"What do you mean by saving me, my sister? I'm innocent. Okay?"

"Innocent? Didn't you take that woman to your home last night?"

"I have. But it doesn't mean that we did something wrong!" But he sent her away then. She didn't even sleep there.

Lola doubted how her brother survived in the entertainment circle for years. "You are not innocent since you have let her in."

… Joseph started to agree with his sister. She had a point. He was at fault in this matter.

"I'll wait for Lillian to wake up. And I'll talk with her right away." The door of the bedroom opened while Joseph was still speaking.

"I have to hang up, Lola. She's up now." Joseph immediately hung up the phone and rushed in front of Lillian. He greeted her with a voice as sweet as he could make, "Good morning, Honey."

What a "good" morning. Lillian just gave him a cold stare. His phone has never stopped ringing.

She already knew what was going on. She saw 999 Weibo messages on the phone screen notification just now.

She turned the silent mode on. There were still dozens of missed calls.

Joseph gave up when he saw Lillian having so much difficulty in walking around. He could handle this by himself like a man.

"Go and wash yourself, honey. Let's have breakfast after." Joseph would rather eat with his wife before he went to work.

Lillian was puzzled as to why Joseph did not say anything about the matter. After all, nobody could help him but her.

Lillian dressed herself up after washing and walked out of the apartment together with Joseph. She held his hand as they walked slowly.

Surprised, Joseph looked at Lillian's hand and asked, "You already believe me?"

Lillian didn't answer. She pressed the elevator button and stepped in.

The silence caused Joseph to be a bit upset.

Outside the apartment, the media were anxiously waiting for Joseph and the young actress. At the sight of Lillian, they all got so confused. Their mouths gaped open in bewilderment.

Where was Cassie? Wasn't she there? How could the pregnant Lillian appear at this time?

Confused as they were, the media crowded around and poured out their questions. They never considered that crowding the couple would force the pregnant Lillian into a tough situation.

"Mr. Li, can you explain what happened last night?"

"Mrs. Li, what do you think of your husband's infidelity?"

"Mr. Li, how long have you been dating Cassie?" Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

The media had already jumped to conclusions.

Lillian just listened to their questions, scorning their shamelessness. She put on a smile and opened her mouth, "Please listen to me."

The reporters quieted down. Only the clicking of cameras can be heard.

Joseph looked at the woman beside him as well. He didn't mean to let her speak on his behalf. But he would listen now that she has decided to speak out.

"There's a misunderstanding. I arrived here yesterday afternoon. My husband called me last night, saying a colleague of him was drunk, and asking me whether he could take her home and let her stay for a while. I agreed because it was more inconvenient for him to go to a hotel."

Lillian explained, then took out the plane ticket from her bag to prove her arrival time.

She continued, "We didn't expect those reporters to begin writing some fake news. Besides, that colleague was soon sent back her home by my husband's agent. Because it was inconvenient for her to stay here. You could ask both of them if you want to be sure."

Immersed in the soft voice of his wife, Joseph was lost in his thoughts. She was willing to believe him, and more importantly, she spoke for him. She loved and cared for him so much.

After finishing her words, Lillian gave her husband a pinch. Joseph immediately came back to his senses. "Yes, that's the truth. The magazines and the reporters who have been making up stories could wait for the lawsuits from our company. We will follow up this matter. Thanks!"

"So it is..."

All the reporters were in an uproar, but the truth had been clear as Lillian came out of the apartment together with Joseph. Yet, some reporters did not give up. They want more statements to put on their article.

"Mrs. Li, could you please explain why it was inconvenient for Cassie to stay? You agreed to take Cassie to the apartment, but you have said that it is inconvenient. Aren't your words contradict each other?"

"Yeah, Mrs. Li, could you explain that?"

Seeing these ferocious reporters, Lillian doubted whether they had professional ethics or not. They didn't even think that she was pregnant.

At that time, Joseph gave a stare at the reporters before putting his arm around his wife's waist, and said, "Are there anything left to explain? Of course, I need a secret space with my wife after such a long time of not seeing each other."

…… Holding her anger back, Lillian lowered her head and grumbled about the shameless words of her husband.

All the reporters burst in a mystical laughter. Soon after, they reported all the information they got on the Internet.

At the same time, Joseph's company also released an indictment on the Internet. The signature of the lawyer at the lower right corner really shocked everyone -- it's Samuel Shao!

Those magazines spreading rumors were dead meat. They would never recover their business again.

Watching the video online, Harry saw no need to act on it. He just needed to contact Samuel.

So could he take credit from his woman? After all, Samuel was not a lawyer who is easy to approach.

Just a few hours after noon, all rumors about Joseph were proved wrong. Some magazines even published their letters of apology as early as they could. But, it was still too late.

Following his wife everywhere, Joseph began to comfort Lillian by all means. "You are so kind, sweetheart, I love you, love you, love you!"

Not in the mood to speak to him, Lillian opened the car door and sat inside.

"Let me help fasten your seat belt, my dear. I love you!" Oh, so many "love you"! Lillian couldn't stand it anymore.

"You are too disgusting and annoying, Joseph Li!" Such a childish man, she thought. She gave a cold stare to the grinning face in front of her.

But he gave her a kiss on her cheeks. "I can do anything you want me to do once you're not angry anymore."

……. Squinting at him, Lillian answered, "Was this the way you took that girl home?"

Joseph put on a disappointed face immediately. Already irritated, he replied, "Never mention that woman to me! I won't cooperate with her and that director anymore. I'll tell Harry tomorrow to send him to Mauritius."
