Chapter 130 She Is Willing

Vanessa’s cheeks flushed, then drained of colour, sensing a stark change in Maggie’s demeanour. It seemed- a deliberate effort to complicate matters for her.

Trapped inside the vehicle, Vanessa’s eyes appeared red and swollen, lending her a sorrowful expression as tears cascaded down her checks.

As Maggie noticed the tears streaking her cheeks, she plunged into profound contemplation.

“Maggie, Vanessa and I both agreed to what happened between us. If you find it hard to accept, there’s no need to complicate things for her. If you’re upset, aim your emotions at me.”

Joseph’s words dripped with frostiness as he felt the weight of his duty as a man to confront the situation.

“You?” Maggie sneered at him and responded directly, “I have no interest in further interaction with you. Why would I blame you? Or perhaps you are willing to forsake everything for love and rush to Vanessa’s aid?”

Joseph frowned, saying firmly, “Don’t be obstinate. This isn’t the time for outbursts. The future of Luster Corporation hangs in the balance at this moment. We can delve into this matter further after we return.”

Stripped of the veil of childhood memories and the countless times he had come to her aid, Joseph meant nothing to her.

At that instant, she came to the stark realisation that Joseph’s presence was utterly abhorrent to her.

“You’re overanalysing. I don’t harbour such a trivial grudge, especially towards you. The success of Luster Corporation is important, but your betrayal of emotions and open affairs is also significant. Have Mom and Dad instilled deceitfulness and duplicity in you all these years??

Maggie smiled, her crimson lips forming a sardonic curve as she spoke frankly.

Joseph’s countenance grew sombre, his discontent clearly visible.
