Chapter 10

Lucille left the Jules Villa and walked to the roadside to wait for the bus.

It might sound unbelievable, but as the daughter of the Jules family, she had no money on her.

Howard had frozen all her bank accounts as a punishment.

And even the driver of the house had been assigned to serve Zoey, not her.

The reason for Howard's action was to force Lucille to hand over her 40% shares.

Thinking of this, Lucille couldn't help but sneer.

Oh, how she looked forward to showing Howard the true definition of regret.

Beep!

Suddenly, a loud car horn startled her out of her thoughts.

She raised her head and saw a top-class luxury car slowly stopping in front of her.

The car window rolled down, revealing a man with a stunningly gorgeous side face. "Hey, little girl, get in the car," he said.

Lucille looked at Joseph, who was sitting in the back seat, and her eyes narrowed slightly. "Mr. Joseph, what a coincidence?"

Lucille's choice of words was not lost on Joseph, as the word "coincidence" carried an implicit message.

Joseph turned his head, revealing a sharp, refined gaze that settled upon Lucille's exquisite, fair features Though her lips curved into a smile, they appeared superficial, never reaching her eyes. There was some vigilance deep in her eyes.

Joseph couldn't help but laugh.

Her superficial mannerisms and polite gestures came across to him as insincere and lacking in genuine warmth.

He withdrew his gaze and smirked, "It's not a coincidence. I have been planning this for a long time."

He had been planning this for a long time?

Lucille squinted her eyes. "What does Mr. Joseph want from me today?"

Joseph didn't answer her question. He just lowered his head and fixed his sleeves, saying, "Get in the car, and I'll tell you."

Without a second thought, Lucille pulled open the car door and hopped inside.

Around the street corner, there was a white luxury car parked.

Zoey and Samuel sat in the car, staring incredulously at the scene before them.

What did they just witness?
