192 The Most Beautiful Dance

Isabella was a little excited. “I’ll go back and get change! Well, I’m wearing no shoes!”

She turned around and was about to return to the room.

Joseph directly pulled Isabella back, then he held her waist and lifted her up. He let her stand on his clean and bright leather shoes. “You don’t need to go back. This is enough.”

Isabella looked at her dirty bare feet and flushed. “My feet are dirty. I don’t want to make your shoes dirty. And how can we dance like this?”

“You still want to dance by yourself after drinking 11 shots?”

Joseph held Isabella’s slender waist with her big hands. He said, “Let’s just dance like this.”

As he said this, he slowly moved his feet, and they started to dance slowly.

“Who was your partner at the formal ball tonight?” Isabella leaned against Joseph and her body was stiff. She felt a bit nervous.

“The official ball?”

.....

Joseph thought for a moment. “Isn’t it the official ball now? You are the champion in the drinking competition.”

Then, he smiled and said, “I heard that you even drank more than men today. In that case, who dared to fight with you and dance with me?”

Isabella stared blankly at Joseph and asked, “So you haven’t danced today?”

“No, of course not.”

Joseph looked at the big eyes of Isabella seriously. He touched her small nose and said, “With you here, how dare I dance with other women?”

Isabella suddenly felt that her cold heart was warm again after hearing Joseph’s words.

She didn’t know if Joseph said these on purpose to please her or the words were from the bottom of his heart. But she didn’t want to know about it now.

It didn’t matter. Even if it was just a lie, she was willing to sink into his gentle eyes tonight. One night was enough.

Isabella buried her head in Joseph’s embrace and sniffed the scent of him. She relaxed her body and let Joseph guide her dance under the moonlight.

There was no elegant music and no charming lights. Nobody danced with them and nobody cheered for them.

Isabella was not even wearing a dress or high heels. She looked not elegant at all.

But she felt that this was the most beautiful dance she had ever had. Even she had been on the bigger stage and had much more audience.

But she was the most beautiful today.

“Are you asleep?”

Joseph’s voice was as gentle as the moonlight. He was not overbearing and domineering at all tonight. And he made her feel at ease.

“No.”

How could Isabella fall asleep at such a warm moment?

“You have drunk too much. Even if you vomit now, you would still be half-drunk.”

Joseph did not notice Isabella’s happiness and smiled. “There are still three minutes left. Do you have the strength to cut the cake with me?”

“Of course.”

Joseph smiled and bent over to pick Isabella up. He walked up the stairs and let her stand beside him.

The cake was already in a mess, and it seemed not worth being cut. However, Joseph did not care about it at all. He picked up a piece of the cake and placed it on the tray. Then, he put the half-broken candled on the cake and lit them up.

The orange little flame gave off a warm glow in the night.

“Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you...”

Joseph sang in a deep voice. Isabella had never heard him sing before. She felt that it was funny for Joseph to sing the song. So, she laughed excitedly. “I’ll sing for you! You can just make a wish!”

Joseph smiled and closed his eyes. Isabella looked at his handsome face and felt that every cell in her body was dancing.

“I’ve made the wish.”

They blew out the candles.

Joseph reached out and handed the cake to Isabella. Although he didn’t look excited, he was smiling. “I don’t like dessert. You can eat this for me.”

“But how can you not eat cake for your birthday?”

“Who said that one must eat cake for a birthday?”

“But this is your birthday cake.”

“I told you to eat it. Why are you talking so much nonsense?”

“Well, I can eat it, but you have to eat a little too. Otherwise, your birthday wish cannot be fulfilled.”

“Are you cursing me?”

“I didn’t curse you, but everyone said so. Can you just have a little...”

“You’re so annoying. If you don’t want to eat, then you don’t need to!”

Joseph was impatient. He picked up a piece of cake and stuffed it into Isabella’s mouth.

“How can you do this?”

Isabella was unprepared for it. In an instant, her face was covered with cream. She complained, “What are you doing? You made the cream on my hair!”

Joseph laughed out loud.

Joseph looked at Isabella’s face and said mockingly, “You really look like a monkey who is stealing food.”

“You’re the monkey!”

Isabella got angry, and she immediately put the cake in her hand on Joseph’s face.

Isabella laughed out loud.

“You really don’t look like a monkey. You look like a gorilla!”

Joseph was stunned and hurriedly wiped the cream off his face. No one dared to do this to him. He said angrily, “Isabella, what are you doing?”

The atmosphere suddenly changed.

Joseph’s voice turned cold. Isabella suddenly realized that Joseph was not a friend who could be joked casually. She was scared and said quickly, “I didn’t mean it!”

After saying that, she turned and ran.

“Do you think your apology is so useful?”

Joseph pulled Isabella back and pressed her face into the cake.

“Wow.”

Isabella cried, “Sorry, I shouldn’t have done so. How can you change so easily? Help, grandpa! Help!”

“Well, you really dare to do this to me, and now one is going to help you. Isabella, today I will teach you a lesson!”

Joseph didn’t care about his image. He put the cream on Isabella’s face excitedly. The vast Wilson Manor was instantly filled with Joseph’s hearty laughter and Isabella’s cries.

The bell rang in the distance. The midnight wind was cool, but there was a warm and sweet scent...

On the third floor, there was a room with no lights on. The moonlight shone in the room. Charlie leaned on his cane and watched the scene downstairs. He let out a sigh of relief.

William whispered, “Master Wilson, you can finally be at ease. Mr. Joseph’s birthday banquet today was very successful. Look how happy he is.”

“Isabella didn’t come to cut the cake with him. If this happened in the past, Joseph would definitely be furious and directly cancel this birthday banquet. I didn’t expect that they could still be so happy like this. Joseph has really changed a lot.”
