Joseph’s face momentarily froze. “A house?”
From over there, a voice responded, “Yes Haven’t you seen it yet to the divorce agreement, there are
two houses that belong to Ms. Shepherd. Apart from that, Me Shepherd left with nothing else!
Joseph really didn’t know, he thought that the divorce agreement Deborah was using was the one he
had brought over in the morning
That was the n he had devised for Deborah.
The agreement was quite straightforward, Deborah had no intention of iming any of Ashton’s assets,
and since they had no children, there were no issues regarding custody arrangements.
Only then did Joseph carefully examine the agreement, and he saw that an additional use had been
added, which referred to the two houses mentioned by thewyer.
Sitting nearby, Deborah noticed the sudden change in Joseph’s expression and heard him mention
“house.” She quickly developed a bad feeling about the situation.
Joseph replied to him, “Alright, got it. Thank you, Mr. Knox
As soon as the phone call ended, Deborah asked worriedly. “Is there a problem with those two
houses?”*
Joseph restrained his emotions and gently asked her, “Did Ashton request to add this? Did he say
anything else?”
Deborah’s face grew even more uneasy. “He said that I paid for these two houses myself, so naturally, I
should take them back. What’s wrong? Is there a problem with the houses?”
Joseph hesitated for a moment before saying, “It’s nothing, no problem. I just noticed that this line was
addedter, so I casually asked.”

Deborah had been living with Joseph day and night for two years, so she could tell whether something
was wrong, with
him or not.
The house definitely had some issues, but Josephi didn’t want to mention them, fearing it might affect
her mood.
After thinking for a long time, Deborah came up with the only possibility. “Could it be that the price of
this house was artificially inted, and it was purchased with a loan? If the house is given to me, then
I’ll be the one stuck with the huge debt, repaying the high-interest loan?”
It didn’t cross my mind.
She already knew that Ashton wasn’t a good person. She should have just said she didn’t want those
two houses.
Joseph remained silent for a moment, and Deborah’s heart began to sink. “Is it a huge loan? How
much is it?”
It must be at least in the millions of dors to make Joseph show such an expression.
Deborah couldn’t take it anymore. She stood up and said, “I’m going to find him and make him take the
house back!”
Joseph immediately reached out and grabbed her arm, “That’s not true, there really is no problem with
the house.”
Deborah turned around, her face serious, and looked at him. “Then tell me the truth. What’s really
going on? Don’t hide it from me.”
After a long silence, Joseph finally spoke, “Those two houses have been fully paid for. The total value
of the houses ist over 150 million dors.”
Deborah was so stunned that she couldn’t speak for quite some time.
She considered many possibilities, even including the haunting of the two houses, but ultimately, she
believed that Ashton had malicious intentions to harm her.
As a result, there were no issues with the house, but it was still a sky-high price?
Deborah looked at Joseph, still not quite able to regain herposure.
Joseph cautiously asked her, “How about giving the house back to Ashton?”
Deborah finally snapped out of it, her face full of confusion. “If he gave it to me for free and there are no
other issues,
why should I return it?”
Lucien told her that Ashton had done so many things to hurt her.
Including cutting her liver, causing her to have a miscarriage, and resulting in the loss of her uterus.
Her body had endured such immense pain, perhaps he too hadmitted many misdeeds and wished
to atone by suttering financial loss.
Then why doesn’t she want the house he’s offering for free?
Precisely because of his insane actions, it’s possible that she and Joseph might not be able to have
their own children
for the rest of their lives.
Deborah made up her mind and brought back the divorce agreement, saying, “You’re not allowed to
return it to him, and I won’t either!”
Joseph always felt that something about the house left a bad taste in his heart.
But when Deborah said that, he couldn’t find the right words to refute her, so he could only nod and
say, “Alright, I’ll follow your advice.”
150 million dors, no matter how wealthy a person may be, is by no means a small sum.
Now, Ashton both agrees to the divorce and offers the house as well.
Did he really let go just because he said he did?
Deborah didn’t rack her brains thinking about all these details. If Ashton was offering something for
free, why not take it?
Once she was sure that there were no other issues with the house, she felt at ease and quickly put the
matter behind
her.
After getting divorced and unexpectedly receiving 150 million dors, she felt extremely delighted.
Humming a tune, she went upstairs to pack her luggage and called out to Joseph, “Joseph,e up
and help me pack. We’re going back. to Oceanview City!”
Joseph, with a mind full of concerns, still got up and followed.
Deborah entered the bedroom and opened her suitcase, tossing things inside while she counted,
“Clothes, bags. So many clothes with Joseph’s name on them, left at that jerk’s ce. That’s quite a
loss.”
Joseph felt uneasy inside, and walked over to her side, “Debby, I might not be able to return to
Oceanview City for a while. I just told my dadst night that I would be going to the ck Group to get
used to the job in the next few days.”
Deborah paused for a moment, recalling the matter at hand, “Oh, right, You stay here for now, and I
need to go back. I
have several design drafts to submit, and this whole ordeal has already caused a dy of several
days.’
Joseph hugged her from behind and said, “I don’t feelfortable letting you go back alone.”
Suddenly, he became so proactive that Deborah’s ears turned a little red. She felt that there was
something a bit odd
about him.
“Then I’ll submit the design draft ande back to see you in a day or two.”
Joseph spoke in a low voice, “Don’t go looking for Ashton anymore.”
Deborah finally understood why he seemed so strange.
She pushed his hand away, turned around, and looked at him. “What are you thinking? It took me so
much effort to divorce him. How could I possibly go back to that psycho?”
“As for the house, it’s something he owes me, so I don’t feel guilty about taking it.”
Joseph hugged her tightly, burying his face in her hair, and remained silent.
Deborah gently stroked his head andforted him, “Be good, I only like you, and I like you the most.”
Joseph became exceptionally gentle under her touch, nuzzling his head against her neck.
He strick with her for quite a while before finally taking her to the airport.
At the airport, he couldn’t bear to see her leave and clung to her, almost causing her to miss her flight.
Deborah truly felt that he was so soft and tender in front of her, she wished she could just pack him into
her suitcase and take him away.
“Joseph, Joseph, don’t worry about the ck Group anymore. Just go with Debby. She’ll support you
with her design
sketches.”
Joseph grabbed her arm and was about to head inside, “I’ve already bought the tickets, let’s go
Debby.”
Deborah’s expression changed in an instant as she blocked his way, “Go, go, go, I really have to leave
now. Behave yourself in Richmond, and don’t even think about getting involved with that woman,
understand?”
Joseph watched her go inside, his eyes glued to her, wishing he could leave with her.
Deborah was in an indescribable good mood. After passing through the boarding gate with her
documents, she happily boarded the ne.
As soon as I settled into my seat in first ss, it felt like a bucket of cold water had been dumped on my
head.
Ashton was sitting right next to her.
