Chapter 153

“No, I’m not with him. Quit the nonsense, Joe,” Madison said calmly, her expression unchanging.

“Jessica,” Joc called out.

Joe tapped the table and gave Madison a pointed look, “Has anyone ever told you that you’re terrible at fibbing? If people find out you’re my sister, it’d be embarrassing.”

‘In this dog-eat-dog corporate world, I haven’t met a sly old fox yet. When they spout their nonsense, they don’t blush or sk ip a beat. No one is like her. Joe thought.

Madison murmured with a slight frown, “You seem quite pleased with yourself.”

Joe and Madison were so close, that he overheard the murmurs without effort.

Joe raised his eyes and said, “What’s so bad about being pleased? Jessica, you’ve got to get street-smart. The world’s full of deceivers, and you can’t even bluff? Seriously, why the hell are you bringing this up? Be straight with me, why’d you end up in the hospital. today? How’d you get hurt?”

In the end, he suddenly woke up and realized that he had digressed, so he brought the conversation back to the original topic.

Madison felt cornered and confessed. “It’s nothing. Just nicked myself and ended up getting a tetanus shot”

Joe glanced over and his face darkened slightly.

The scars on the wound did not appear to be serious, but when they were on his younger sister’s body, they still caught the eye.

Joe scoffed, unable to contain his irritation, directing it at Leo. “What’s the deal with. you and that kid? You were even photographed together. Don’t fall for him, Jessica. I mean it, don’t you dare fall in love. We don’t need more drama to dig through.”

Joe never really planned to question her, but given the turn of events, he could only ask

out.

Madison nearly hid her face in her hands. “Joe, the idea of romance is foreign to me.”
