322 I Felt Very Uncomfortable
“I fell on the glass when I was a child,” Isabella said as she said before. “It is a little ugly, right?”
Although Joseph had asked someone to make spas for her a few times and the marks of some scars had indeed faded, those that were deeper were still very obvious.
“Not at all.”
“Your body is the most beautiful body I have ever seen.” Cedric’s eyes darkened.
Isabella smiled, “Cedric really knows how to talk. Just now, you disliked me and asked me to wear a student swimsuit.”
Cedric smiled, approached her, and whispered, “That’s because I don’t want anyone to see you are so sexy.”
Then, he gently hugged Isabella’s face and kissed her.
Isabella did not expect Cedric to kiss her in public. Before she could react, Zachary, who was beside her, became crazy, “Cedric, why do you show affection before me? How dare you?”
Cedric smirked and said, “You have more girlfriends than your fingers. Even if I show affection before you, you can respond to me any time.”
.....
Everyone laughed loudly. Joseph suddenly shouted, “Doris, come here and lie down! I will also apply some sunscreen on you!”
Stella was already lying down. When she heard Joseph’s words, she was stunned.
“M ... Me?”
Doris was also stunned. Then, she walked over, feeling flattered. Before she could react, Joseph pulled her over and pushed her onto the chair. His large palm wiped her body.
Doris called out delicately, “Mr. Joseph, please be gentle! Be gentle! Oh, no! It’s so comfortable.”
The sound of her cry attracted everyone’s attention. Isabella felt as if there were nails in her eyes, and she became gloomier.
“Cedric, I’m hungry. I’ll go to the kitchen to find something to eat.”
Isabella felt she could not tolerate it anymore and didn’t want to see this kind of scene. She stood up. “Do you want some? I’ll bring some for you.”
“I will go with you.” Cedric stood up.
“No, I’ll be back soon. Just get me some fruit juice and wait.”
“Alright.”
Isabella put on her clothes and felt very unhappy. Her mind was filled with the scenes in which Joseph happily applied sunscreen to Stella. She immediately felt as if something was stuck in her heart. The more she thought about it, the more depressed she felt.
Isabella walked towards the kitchen and saw someone standing at the end of the boat and commanding others to salvage something. Thus, she simply walked over.
“Gerry, you’re here too.”
The commander was Joseph’s personal bodyguard and assistant Gerry, who always kept a poker face.
“Miss Isabella.”
Gerry immediately turned around and stood respectfully with his head bowed. He did not find it hot, but still wore long clothes and trousers, looking like he was restricted.
“Don’t worry about me. I’m just bored and came to take a look.”
Isabella looked at the things that were fished up from the net with great interest. A few large green crabs were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. She could not help but say happily, “Are you guys trying to fish crabs for fun?”
“I wasn’t playing. I just casually fished them up. I was wondering if I should order someone to steam them and treat them as snacks for you,” Gerry said.
“Oh, that’s great! There are crabs for us to have!”
“They look very fresh. Gerry, will we eat them for lunch?” Isabella squatted down and pressed on the crab shells.
“I will ask Mr. Joseph for instructions later.”
“Oh, the things in the sea seem to be interesting.”
Isabella smiled like a flower. Looking at Isabella who was very happy, Gerry could not help but be willing to say a few more words to her. “Yes, there will be fishing activities today. You will see more interesting things.”
Isabella raised her head and narrowed her eyes as she listened to Gerry. She did not notice that her fingers were hanging in front of her knees, nor did she notice that a crab was struggling to crawl out from inside and actually clamped her index finger!
“Oh my god!”
Isabella screamed and immediately jumped up. She stood up and swung her hand with all her might. “Gerry, help! Gerry...”
“Miss Isabella!”
Gerry was so scared that he immediately rushed over. He pulled Isabella by the arm and put her hand into a bucket next to him. Isabella did not dare to look at it and turned her face to the side. The large green crab soon let her go.
Gerry heaved a sigh of relief. He pulled Isabella and said, “Miss Isabella, see, it’s already done.”
“Thank you so much.”
Isabella looked at her swollen and bleeding fingers and immediately stopped crying. She turned her tears into a smile, “I’m really embarrassed. Such a small matter can scare me into tears. Gerry, I felt so sorry.”
Looking at Isabella who was so embarrassed, Gerry became a little kinder. “It’s okay, I’ll get the medicine box and dress the wound for you.”
“OK.”
Gerry moved quickly. He immediately took out a first aid kit and dipped a cotton swab in iodine. He carefully cleaned Isabella’s wound, “The crab clamped you because you made it feel dangerous. The more you wanted to break free from it, the harder it would let you go. Put it on the ground or in the water. Thus, it felt safe and naturally wanted to escape, so it would let you go.”
Isabella looked at Gerry in shock. The latter also felt her gaze and looked up in confusion.
“Wow, Gerry, I’ve known you for so long. This is the first time I’ve heard you talk so much.” Isabella looked at Gerry with a smile. As a result, the man with a poker face looked a little embarrassed. He hurriedly wrapped Isabella with a band-aid and stood up.
“When you steam the crabs later, remember to leave the one pinching me for me.”
“Okay, I will go to deliver the medicine box first. Miss Isabella, don’t touch those crabs again.”
“Oh, okay.” Isabella looked up with a smile, but the expression on her face suddenly froze.
Joseph stood in the shadows beside the cabin door, crossed his arms, and looked at her coldly.
“Mr. Joseph.”
Gerry, who had just turned around, did not expect Joseph to be here. He did not even know when Joseph had come here. Gerry immediately bowed and stood straight.
“You may leave.”
Joseph casually instructed Gerry to do so. His voice was so cold that it caused the temperature of the hot weather to drop by a few degrees. He began to walk towards Isabella.
Gerry paused for a moment, but he immediately obeyed Joseph’s order and left.
Isabella froze with a smile. She could learn from Joseph’s expressions that he targeted her.
She was a little terrified as she watched Joseph walking toward her. She couldn’t help but want to retreat, but there was a railing behind her. There was no way to retreat, so she endured and said, “Joseph, why do you look for me again? Can you stop picking on me?”
Joseph stared at Isabella for a while and said, “Let me see how your finger is doing.”
Isabella was stunned.
“Did you hear that? I say I want to see how your finger is going.” Joseph said louder.
Isabella immediately stretched out her hand.
“You are risking your life eating the crabs!”
Joseph rolled his eyes at Isabella. He picked up her finger and looked at it casually. Then, he looked down at her meaningfully. “Why did you suddenly panic when you saw me applying the sunscreen on Doris?”
