The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 44

In the Hospital of B City, rapid footsteps sound in the quiet corridors of the VIP senior ward.

Dressed in casual attire, Joseph strode through the corridor with four bodyguards and headed straight for Master Dawson's ward.

Outside the ward stood Master Dawson's bodyguards and caretakers. When they suddenly saw Joseph, they were so excited.

Especially Tracy Baker, the caretaker of Master Dawson, came over and said, "Young Master Joseph! Young Master Joseph, you are back!"

"Hm! What's going on with my dad?"

"He's not very well. He has been talking about you all the time. It's good that you're back. The sight of you will make him half better."

As she spoke, she pushed open the door of the ward. Master Dawson, who was lying on the bed, heard the voice and was trying to sit up. Joseph quickly walked in and stretched out to hold Master Dawson, "Dad, you've lost a lot of weight!"

"My child, why didn't you tell me you were coming back? If I hadn't been sick, would you have never come back?" Master Dawson stared at Joseph with love in his eyes.

"No, I didn't say I wouldn't come back. It's all because I have too much work to do." Joseph smiled and helped Master Dawson sit up, then he put a cushioned backrest behind Master Dawson's back.

"Too much work? Joseph, I know you too well." Master Dawson sighed.

Joseph was handsome and had inherited his good genes, but he never did what he wanted to do. Joseph was not as decisive as he was, and only knew how to play with women.

Sending Joseph to study abroad was in the hope that he could study hard and become capable. Joseph, however, disappointed Master Dawson.

He was not very absorbed in his studies Instead, he liked to go to nightclubs and hang out with women.

Over the years, word of his womanizing abroad and changing girlfriends like changing clothes kept coming back to Master Dawson.

He was really worried about the little son on whom he had such great hopes.

As he watched Master Dawson sigh, Joseph's expression didn't change, "Dad, I didn't do anything either. Rest and take good care of yourself!"

"How can I have a good rest when you're like this? Joseph, you won't leave this time, will you?"

Well, I…"

"I'm old and I won't live long. Please don't leave and stay with me, okay?"

"Okay!" Joseph nodded.

Master Dawson was very satisfied with Joseph's obedience, "You've reached a certain age, don't fool around all day. When I'm alive, you don't have to worry about anything, but if I die, what will you do?"

"So dad, take care of yourself for me." Joseph replied with a smile.

"No matter how long I can live, I can't stay with you forever. Joseph, you need to change your bad habits."

"Yes, I will." Joseph went along with Master Dawson's words.

Joseph made no objection, and Master Dawson was much relieved. Just as Master Dawson was about to talk to Joseph about his work, a bodyguard's greeting came from outside the ward, "Mr. Dawson!" Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Charles was coming!

His quick arrival made Joseph's lips curl into a cold smile, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Soon after, Charles entered the ward and put on a surprised face when he saw Joseph, "Joseph is back? When did you come back?"

"Last night," Joseph answered lightly.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming back? I tried to call you several times to tell you father was ill, but I couldn't get through to you."

Charles was so scheming. It was obvious that he deliberately concealed the fact that Master Dawson was sick, but now it seemed was Joseph's fault.

Joseph said coldly, "Did you even call me? Why doesn't it show on my phone? Looks like my broken phone should be replaced."

Charles wasn't that stupid. When he heard the sardonic tone of Joseph, he smiled awkwardly. Why did Joseph change his mind all of a sudden?

Joseph had never retorted when Charles slandered him before. When Charles was thinking, he saw Master Dawson frown.

"You've come just in time. I was talking to Joseph about him staying. Joseph has been studying abroad for so many years, now it's time for him to make a contribution to the Dawson family. He doesn't know anything. You can arrange a training position for him in the company. I think I can arrange for him to be the part-time manager of the administration and human resources department."

"Isn't Master Dawson so biased? He asks an ignoramus prodigal be part-time managers of two important positions in the company!" Charles hated it in his heart, but he had no reason to refute it. He was the president of the company, but the real shares were in the hands of Master Dawson, who was the real decision-maker.

After visiting Master Dawson, Charles and Joseph left together. Charles put on a fake smile and said, "Joseph, I'll hold a banquet in Wolf Group tonight and invite George and Philip to come to welcome you."

"No, I'm not in the mood for a banquet now. Instead, I have a favor to ask of you."

"Don't say so, we're brothers. Just let me know if you need any help." Charles replied in hypocrisy.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony. I've run out of money recently..."

"No problem. You can use this card." Charles handed a card to Joseph.

"If you are out of work and need money, I will give you money unconditionally. But if you're going to work for the company in the future, I'm not obligated to do that. After all, when you have your own job and salary, it's not good to ask for money from me, is it?"

"You are right. I wonder how much money I can make a month for the job my father has me do"

As soon as Charles spoke, Joseph knew what he was planning. Wasn't it because he was afraid that Joseph would go to work at the company?

"Not much. It's not enough for you to spend a night at a nightclub."

Did Charles take Joseph for a fool when he told him how low the Dawson manager's salary was?

Joseph was really speechless. How did Charles get the confidence to think that he was stupid? Was it just because of the so-called woman-playing game that Charles arranged?

"Ah, so little? Then why do I have to go to work? I don't want to go to work. It's better to keep my fun being all beer and skittles." A smug smile flashed across Charles's face when he heard what Joseph said. Then, Joseph continued, "But I can't stay away from work for the rest of my life. I'd better listen to dad."

His words made the smile on Charles's face disappear instantly. He strode to his car and said, "Joseph,

I have something to do, so l have to go first. Call me if you need anything."

"Okay!" Joseph had a mocking smile on his face as he watched Charles' car drive away.

He slowly took out his mobile phone from his pocket and looked at it. There was a missed call on the phone.

He called back immediately, but the call was soon hung up.

Paige didn't answer the phone. Joseph made two more calls, and all of them were hung up.

"It seems that the rabbit is angry! Things have gotten serious!"
