My Weak Wife Is a Real Goddess

Chapter 7

Howard froze in shock.

What did Mr. Joseph mean by suggesting that Lucille was wrongly accused?

And why was he bringing up Lucille's name all of a sudden? Wasn't he here because of Madam Collins?

Charles couldn't help but interject, "Mr. Joseph, you must be wrong. Lucille was not wrongly accused. She did push Zoey down the stairs last night."

Joseph gave him a cold glance and asked, "And who are you?”

"I am Charles Jules, Lucille's older brother."

Joseph's lips curved in a sneer. "No wonder."

Charles furrowed his brows and asked, "What do you mean?"

Joseph's eyes turned icy as he replied, "If even her own brother does not believe her and speaks up for an outsider, how can anyone else believe that Miss Lucille was wrongly accused?"

The color drained from Charles' face, leaving him at a loss for words.

Howard was struck with a sudden jolt.

His mind racing, he struggled to make sense of Joseph's cryptic words.

Lucille's eyes flicked with interest as she raised her eyebrow, taking an extra glance at Joseph. She never expected him to speak up for her.

Joseph noticed her gaze and looked up to meet her eyes.

As their eyes met, a spark of emotion flickered between them and silently grew.

Lucille kept her composure, appearing serene and unaffected.

Joseph chuckled lightly, gracefully standing up. "I've delivered the gift, so I won't disturb you any longer," he said.

Howard hurriedly offered to see him off.

"No," Joseph nonchalantly replied as he buttoned his suit. "Let Miss Lucille send me off."
