Chapter 17
Joe raised his eyebrows for a moment.
Some matters in the business world were sensitive, but asking certain questions, such as the non-renewal of contracts and the signing with other companies after the contract ended, was normal.
So, it wasn’t very impolite when Leo asked such a question.
Joe initially didn’t intend to hide anything, but as he was about to answer Leo, he suddenly changed his mind.
“We at XR Entertainment are indeed striving for it on this matter. I heard that Sylvia from M&L Studio was formerly the chief designer at Palmer Jewelry. But since the contract with on our side. Mr. Palmer, am I right?” Joe pointed out.
your side expired, it’s legal and count for us to strive for M&L Studio
“Of course,” Leo said slowly. His hand slipped into his pocket, his index finger rubbing against his thumb.
“I’m not afraid you will laugh about this, Mr. Daves, but I came to CTR today to I’m understand the situation. If you have already signed with M&L Studio, I’m afraid I’ll have to reflect on it when I go back.” Leo added.
Joe’s beautiful eyes curved. He said, “I thought Mr. Palmer came to interfere in our contract signing. It did make me worry for a moment. After all. Sylvia has been cooperating with the Palmer Group for three years, so you have a significant advantage.”
“If our advantage is significant, they wouldn’t have gone to someone else.” Leo said self- mockingly as he raised his head to meet Joe’s gaze. “Your concerns are understandable. Now that I understand Sylvia hasn’t signed with you, I’m afraid we’ll have to o compete for it a bit, Mr. Daves.”
Joe sighed heavily. Leo couldn’t figure out if he sounded lazy or troubled.
Joe replied, “Actually, I thought the signing matter was settled, but I waited the whole morning without seeing Sylvia, and I couldn’t get in touch with her either! Designers are so ter
Leo chuckled. “It seems like it depends on which of our companies put in more effort,” he responded.
Joe nodded firmly. “Yes!” he said.
It was hard to believe they were at odds just now from the harmonious appearance of
these two at present.

Leo raised his hand to look at his watch and said, “It’s not early anymore. I have to head back. You can go have lunch early, Mr. Daves.”
Joe waved goodbye to Leo with a smile and said, “Mr. Palmer, take care. I won’t see you.
off.”
When Leo finally departed, the handsome smile on Joe’s face disappeared.
“That b asta rd. He put in quite a lot of strength in that punch, Joe thought.
Walking into the company, Joe raised his phone to take a selfie, sending it directly to the group “Protectors of Our Little Sister.”
Joe sent a message with it. [Proud to be injured in protecting Madison. Extremely proud!]
Wesley responded instantly. [What’s going on, Joe? Which ba st ard bullied Madison again?]
Antoine replied, [Where’s Madison? Is she okay?]
John sent a text, too. [Already called Jessica. She’s fine. She’s having dinner with a friend, so everyone can stop worrying about it.]
The chat group instantly fell silent.
Joe looked at the chat history in astonishment, his eyes wide.
So, in the eyes of these five people, there was only their little sister. None of them cared about him at all?
What a group of men! All they cared about was Madison!
Just as he was about to complain about them, he received a message from Madison.
She texted, [Joe, have you applied the medicine to your face? Does your wound still hurt? I’m sorry. I didn’t consider your feelings just now and simply left.]
There was a second message. [By the way, Joe, have you had lunch yet? If you haven’t, come over to where I am now. The food hasn’t been served yet. I ordered your favorite. It’s a bit far from your company to Rose Garden, so we won’t wait for you to eat first. I’ll have the kitchen arrange for your food to be served when you arrive.]
Joe felt a sweet and bitter feeling spread in his heart.
Madison was indeed the best. She knew to care about him, unlike those five annoying

guys who were nothing but irritation!
He replied immediately. [Don’t wait for me. You guys go ahead and eat first! I’ll be there in a while.]
The Rose Garden was a restaurant in Sidovor City that was well-known and a bit
eccentric.
The reason was that its location was too remote, and the number of diners was limited. every day. Ordinary people who wanted a taste had to reserve a seat a month in advance.
In the large Sidovor City, only a few people had the qualifications to enter the restaurant without a reservation, and even fewer could have the heir of an imperial chef, Greg Holland, to cook for them.
When Joe arrived at Rose Garden, Madison and Blanche had just started eating.
Seeing Joe come in. Madison immediately stood up to greet him. “Joc, you’re here!”
Joe grinned and said. “You guys go ahead and cat first. Don’t get up. I still have a while.”
Joc intentionally brought medicine and took it out to apply it to himself.
Leo’s punch was really solid. Thank goodness his aim was slightly off, or else Joe would have lost a tooth! If that happened, then it would have ruined his charming face.
“Joe, let me help you apply it. Madison offered. She was full of guilt when she saw Joe. Joe wouldn’t have suffered like this if it weren’t for her.
“If it doesn’t trouble you too much, Jessica,” Joe said..
Joe immediately handed Madison the cotton swab and medicine and obediently sat beside her.
Madison applied the medicine very seriously to his face. “Joe, if it hurts, just say it.”
“It doesn’t hurt!” Joe said immediately. He grinned. The instant he did, pain flashed. through him, and he gritted his teeth. His grin vanished at once.
Madison sighed helplessly, lightening her touch as she applied the medicine. Joe, control yourself a bit. If you injure the corner of your mouth further, it may ruin your
appearance.”
“Lass, are you making fun of your brother?” asked Joe. He took out his phone, opened the camera, and took a selfie. He looked at himself. “I’m still quite handsome.”
After saying that, Joe secretly sent this photo to the chat group and then put away the
