Chapter 238

The cameraman following Joseph was caught off guard, but Joseph reacted quickly, grabbing onto a rock on the slope before he could fall. If he had not, the drop would have been dangerous if not life-threatening. The bodyguards rushed to pull Joseph back up. "Are you okay, Joseph?"

"I'm fine." Joseph hissed in pain and winced as his clothes, now torn, revealed a large gash on his arm, blood mixing with dirt and sand. A bodyguard immediately pulled out a first aid kit, disinfecting and bandaging the wound.

Unlike the base of the mountain, the peak had no medical stations, and the descent would take too long. To prevent unnecessary injuries, the staff responsible for safety handled the situation on-site.

Selina and Trevon noticed the commotion above. She glanced up but then turned away, resuming her conversation with Trevon, showing no concern for the fact that Joseph had just narrowly avoided a severe accident. Her indifference caused a sharp pain in Joseph's heart.

He thought, 'Selina, how could you be so cold, so heartless, that you don't even care about my safety? Even if you've severed ties with the Harvey family, I'm still your biological brother. I've never wronged you. So why must I bear the brunt of your anger and coldness every time we cross paths in Sokovis?'

Joseph felt wronged. He thought back and realized he had done nothing to deserve this treatment from Selina. If anything, he had always been the one isolated and bullied.

"He keeps looking at you," Trevon said, his eyes narrowing with a dangerous, icy gleam. He was tempted to gouge out Joseph's eyes for daring to covet what was his. All the unknown sufferings Selina had endured were caused by the Harvey family. Thus, Trevon could not understand what right Joseph had to look at Selina with such a victimized expression.

"Darling, I've told you, the Harvey family is full of crazies. They get more arrogant when you give them attention. But it's funny, isn't it? I used to be so humbled, always trying to please them, hoping for a sliver of their attention. They ignored me then, but now the tables have turned. It's just laughable," Selina murmured in a voice only the two of them could hear.

It was not just Manuel and Lloyd, Joseph had changed too. Perhaps the Harvey family had this twisted belief that what they could not have was the best, while what was easy to get was worthless. Fortunately, Selina had not inherited that disgusting trait. Trevon raised an eyebrow. "Did you just call me 'darling'?"

"Why? You're my husband, after all," Selina said.
