Chapter 443 The Photo’s Secret

"Do you think I want to save you? I would have run you over just now if it weren't for the Master's command that we must never leave a fellow disciple to die," Madeline retorted unhappily.

"Isn't there more to it? You'd like to know more about your parents, right?"

Joseph, who resembled a yandere beauty, was leaning against the car window with his head propped up in his right hand.

Madeline, however, had no interest in his honey trap or his good looks.

After putting his hand down, Joseph felt somewhat defeated by his futile attempt.

"Anyway, are you going to tell me the truth in exchange for me saving your life?" Madeline raised an eyebrow and asked him.

Joseph shook his head and said with a smile, "If I tell you, you won't take care of me anymore."

Madeline cursed, "Wily old fox!"

"I'm only two years older than you, Maddie. I don't look that old."

"Hmph!"

Madeline did not take Joseph back to Maple Forest Villa. Instead, she handed him to Albert. They two met halfway as Albert was already rushing toward her location in a hurry.

Joseph protested unwillingly, "I cannot be treated this way, Maddie. I'm your dearest Jo. Do you still recall what the Master told you?"

Madeline said sarcastically, "Master said that I have to bring you back to him even if I have to cripple you, but it’s fine as long as you’re still breathing."

"Master is ruthless."

Joseph protested, but Albert nevertheless forced him into the car.

As soon as the engine started, Joseph threw a lucky charm out from the car window.
