Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy
Chapter 842

The man very casually said something, but it caused Elizabeth to be stunned. She stood where she was, a pair of clear eyes flashing across the man's face. Lowering her eyes, the man opened his fingers and tightly gripped her wrist. The warmth came from his palm, which made the cold winter more warm.

Elizabeth was very surprised that a man's palm could be this warm.

It was as if he was trying to dispel all the coldness that she'd felt in the past few days.

Seeing her standing there in a daze, Joshua slightly squinted his handsome eyes, with a trace of impatience in his voice: "What's wrong? Don't you want to have a dinner?"

It was only then that Elizabeth seemed to wake up from a dream, and a misty look appeared in his eyes again. When she spoke, she realized that she was choked with sobs. "Why did you invite me to dinner? Didn't we break up already?"

Elizabeth felt that since they had broken up, it was a relationship that was even stranger than strangers, but what kind of situation was this? Joshua just barged into her house like this, holding her hand as she brought her to dinner. It's more exciting than when they didn't break up.

Joshua's handsome face stiffened. Obviously, he didn't expect her to ask this.

"Who said that after we broke up, we wouldn't be able to meet and eat?" Joshua could not answer, so he asked her one question instead.

Elizabeth choked, there really wasn't anyone who had set any rules for this, but...

She still felt that something was wrong.

"Joshua, forget it, we have already caused harm so it's better that we don't contact each other anymore. I can't stand it when you mentioned about breaking up again, why not..." Although Elizabeth's heart was in a mess, and all sorts of impulses wanted to jump into his embrace, they were all suppressed by logic in the end. Elizabeth felt that even if Joshua wanted to ask her out, he could do so whenever he wanted to, but she couldn't let herself get lost, because the more she loved, the more one would be unable to extricate herself from it.

Joshua already understood what she meant, the big hands he was holding her right now loosened, both of his hands were crossed in front of his chest, looking down at her from above. He locked onto her little face, and spoke with an unclear voice: "You wouldn't really break up with me, right?"

Elizabeth trembled. It sounded like that she was the one who wanted to break up.

"Just who wanted to break up? Can you be more reasonable?" Elizabeth did not want to admit to this crime, it was clearly he confessing the fact that they had broken up in front of the reporters, why was she the one to blame now?

Joshua frowned, after thinking about it carefully, it seemed like he was causing trouble for no reason.

"Can't you see that I'm purposely trying to provoke you?" Joshua asked again.

Elizabeth had a dazed look on her face as she bit her lips, "How could I be able to tell that. The expression on your face is so serious."

"It's just an excuse to make a scene in the entertainment circle. Haven't you noticed that ever since I broke up with you, your popularity has skyrocketed again? Now it's the Queen of the talk." Joshua continued to pick up a few nice words to say.

Elizabeth laughed dryly: "That's right, 99% of the topics, were all scolded that I deserved to be kicked away by you, if this is considered to be an explosive rise in popularity, then I have nothing to say!" "Then do you want to go out to eat with me or not?" Joshua did not want to bother about these things with her anymore. He was hungry now, and did not eat breakfast nor lunch.

"I'm not going!" Elizabeth took a seat on the sofa boldly: "Joshua, I have something to tell you!"

Just now, Elizabeth suddenly thought of that recording. She felt that for her aunt's safety, she should tell Joshua in advance, letting him know that John Wayne was a villain who had lost all sense of humanity, and make him guard against him.

"What is it?" The light in Joshua's eyes stiffened, and his expression became slightly tense.

Elizabeth lowered her head, after hesitating for two seconds, she took a deep breath, as though she had made a decision.

"Is my new phone still in your possession? There's a recording in that phone. You can open it and listen to it. My aunt sent it to me. I believe it will be helpful to you. "Elizabeth said in a low voice.

Joshua's expression froze for a moment, and then he sneered, "I thought you didn't intend to bring up this matter with me anymore."

Elizabeth was startled by his words, she turned around quickly and looked at him: "You .... You don't know about it, do you?"

Joshua nodded: "Yes, I got it. Just this morning, when I accidentally flipped to that recording."

"Ah, then why didn't you come and cause trouble for me? I hid it from you again!" Elizabeth was so scared that her face turned pale.

Joshua's face darkened, after that, he folded his hands across his chest, and sat beside her: "I was originally very angry, and wanted to throw you into outer space, because you lied to me, but after hearing tha recording, I can understand you, April Jones is your relative, and you can't bear to make her admit defeat, that is what a human usually does."

"Really? Can you understand?" Joy flashed past Elizabeth's beautiful eyes.

Joshua nodded his head, and said with a serious expression: "Before, I was too angry, so it was simply impossible for me to think about this from your standpoint, but now, after my anger has dissipated, I can more and more understand why you aren't willing to reveal April Jones's whereabouts."

Elizabeth never thought that he would actually understand her bitterness. Her beautiful eyes reddened and she almost cried.

"Elizabeth, do you still want to break up with me?" Joshua suddenly extended his hand out, and placed it on her shoulder, his handsome face turned, and stared straight at her as he asked.

Elizabeth was startled by his sudden action, she shook her head: "Of course not, I never thought about it."

The man smiled. "Oh? So that's how it is!"

Elizabeth was unable to figure out the meaning behind his words, and her voice revealed a hint of unease: "Why did you say so? Did you already guess that I wasn't serious about breaking up?" "You can't hide the love in your eyes from me. It would be hard for me not to know!" Joshua raised his eyebrows, and said very confidently.

Elizabeth's beautiful face instantly turned red, and she shyly lowered her head: "Really? Is that really the information that's reflected in my eyes?"

"Otherwise?" Joshua raised his eyebrows, and then, his thin lips came close to her ear: "Your reactions in many aspects gave an answer!"

Elizabeth felt even more embarrassed. She fiercely pushed him away and stood up in a hurry: "Didn't you say you were going to treat me to a meal? Let's go, I'm hungry!"

Seeing that she was being bashful, Joshua slowly stood up and fixed his collar: "It's cold outside, wear more!"

Elizabeth did not expect him to care so much about it. She blushed again, and went back to her room to grab a jacket.

"Let's go!" Joshua stretched out his hand once again, but this time, it was not to grab her wrist, but to snap her five fingers together.
