Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 1479
Fade was about to comfort Moore when he saw this.
Just then, Fade's cell phone rang. He glanced at the number and found that it was Joey calling. He immediately picked up the phone. "Joey, you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, on the other end of the phone, Joey hurriedly said, "Fade, don't speak."
"Huh..." He was a little puzzled. Although he was confused, he still kept his mouth shut.
On the other end of the phone, Joey asked, "Fade, is that person beside you now?"
He was dumbfounded for a moment before he turned his head to stare at Moore and replied, "Yes."
"Well, Fade, you come out and find someplace private. I want to talk to you alone."
Although he was puzzled, he still stepped out of the room and came out to the corridor. He asked, "Joey, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
On the other end of the line, Joey kept silent for a moment before saying, "Fade, don't worry. I'm fine. I've already arrived in Long City."
"Then come here then. We're at the hotel. Forget it, I'll pick you up. Are you at the airport?"
She hurriedly answered, "No."
"Joey, what's wrong?" He asked in a worried tone.
"Fade, I, I'm a little scared. I-1 don't know how to face him. I don't know what to say when I meet him. After all, we have never seen each other before. Fade, do you understand what I mean?" Upon hearing this, he finally understood her feelings.
Previously, she had been looking around for news about her parents, and it had become a belief that was deeply rooted in her heart.
However, when all of this was really about to happen, the hopes and dreams that she had held for so many years were finally coming to be a reality. She just couldn't believe it; it seemed so surreal. She was panicking.
After a moment of silence, Fade replied, "Joey, I can understand what you are going through. I know it seems a little too sudden for the two of you to meet up."
"Well, I won't tell him first. What if I go and fetch you, and well talk about it first. What do you think?" He suggested.
On the other end of the phone, Joey fell silent for a while. After giving it some thought, she finally replied, "Okay, sure. Fade, please come alone!" "I know." He immediately asked for Joey's location, and then hung up the phone.
Back in the room, he made up a lie saying that the flight had been delayed. He asked Moore to wait for him and then went out by himself.
Joey was in a hotel not far from the airport. When he arrived there, the coffee and dessert on Joey's table had been left there for so long that they had turned cold, but she was still frozen in place. "Joey!" Fade called out softly, and walked over to her.
She, who had her head lowered and was lost in her thoughts, raised her head when she heard him. When she saw him, she smiled in surprise. "Fade, you're here."
He sat opposite her. As he stared at Joey, who looked slightly upset, he asked with concern, "Joey, are you not feeling well?"
She shook her head, pointed to her heart and said, "Fade, I-I can't describe what I'm feeling right now. I feel as if all of this is just a dream. I am a little nervous and even a little scared. Now, I-1 don't have the guts to meet him. I..."
He held her hand and whispered softly, "Joey, don't worry. I can totally understand your feelings. I know that you are a little nervous."
"I can tell you that he is as nervous as you are now. From morning till now, he has been trembling, and hasn't even taken a sip of water!"
"What, really! Can, can his body endure the stress?" She was a little worried.
Fade smirked and answered, "Don't worry, he's fine. He's not any ordinary person. He's a martial artist, and he's also at the peak of the Earth Level. He'll be fine even if he doesn't eat or drink for a month." "I see! He's so powerful. What kind of person is he?"
Then, he gradually told her about Moore, as well as what had happened to them when they explored the Dragon Mausoleum.
Unconsciously, she gradually calmed down. She listened to his words with interest, and asked about Moore from time to time. She seemed to be very concerned about him.
After chatting for more than an hour, Fade saw how relaxed she was. He couldn't help but laugh but ask, "Now, are you relaxed? Can we go to the hotel to meet him?"
She paused, and then nodded her head.
He then stood up, took out his wallet and said with a smile, "Then let's leave!"
Immediately, he called the waiter over, paid for the
bill and left.
Just then, the door to the next room swung open, and a man in his thirties with glasses strode out.
The man's face was flushed red. He was covered in the scent of alcohol. His footsteps swayed a little as he waved his hand and shouted to the waiter, "Hey, come over. Two more bottles of wine. I want Lafite. Remember, I want two more bottles of Lafite wine."
"By the way, remember to record it in the school's account. Understood?" The man shouted. When he saw this man, Fade frowned and didn't care much. He paid and was ready to leave.
However, when Joey saw this man, she was a little surprised. "Pollard, why are you here?"
When Pollard heard her voice, he glanced over and saw Joey. His eyes widened, and a glint of surprise flashed across his face. "Joey Chen? Why are you here?"
"Pollard, I had some personal affairs to attend to, so I took a day off to deal with it here. You..."
He waved his hand, and the scent of alcohol mixed with his breath as he replied, "I-I'm here to discuss a project."
As he spoke of this, his eyes lit up. He stepped towards Joey and added, "By the way, Joey, it just so happens that you're here. Come on, come with me. Let's go in and propose a toast to Mr. Xu."
As he spoke, Pollard stretched out his hand to pull Joey's hand, trying to pull her into the private room.
Upon seeing this, she frowned, and quickly took a step back to avoid his reach. She remarked in disdain, "Pollard, I still have something else to do. I'll take my leave first."
After that, she turned around and was about to leave.
Pollard's expression fell upon rejection. His voice grew cold as he questioned. "Joey Chen, what are you doing? Do you know that I'm giving you a chance? What do you mean by this?" "Pollard, I don't understand..." She frowned.
