Chapter 493

Lucy Katz heard this and her body stiffened.

She suddenly thought about that night with that person and those embarrassing moments. Her heart could not help but feel a tinge of guilt.

Nonetheless, she never showed these emotions and pouted her lips instead. She flirtatiously said, “If you continue to tease me, I’ll ignore you!”

Mace Smith leaned his head on her shoulders and laughed giddily.

Joel Foster kept watching Lucy from afar.

When he saw her laugh with ease, his expression softened.

This all vanished as Mace appeared.

Joel witnessed the intimacy between the two of them and saw their loving atmosphere. His brain was instantly clouded with jealousy.

His eyes turned a fiery red.

He violently downed his glass of wine and marched towards Mace and Lucy.

At that moment, Joel Foster did not have much time to think. He was dominated by the madness in his heart, which forced him to make this decision.

Lucy frowned as she noticed Joel’s figure because she had a bad feeling about this.

They were childhood friends for close to 10 years. Even if they had not met in the past few years, she still knew Joel’s character well.

Just by looking at that face filled with repressed anger, she could predict that he was about to do something crazy.

For some reason at this critical point, Lucy did not leave with Mace. Instead, she pushed him away, turned around, and tried to hide the panic she felt in her heart.

Mace was taken aback by Lucy’s actions.

He saw the guilt on her face and frowned tightly.

“What was wrong with Lucy?’

At this moment, Joel swooped in and said, “I have a project recently, I’m not sure if Young Master Smith would be interested in hearing me out.”

Mace was originally still wondering why Joel would come here, but upon hearing this, he let out a sigh of relief.

“I’m all ears.”

Joel’s red-rimmed eyes stared at Lucy’s figure. His voice was light and calm, but the words that came out of his mouth were like a crash of thunder.

He forced himself between Mace and Lucy and erupted. “The premise is, you leave her.”

Mace did not even consider and directly rejected him.

“Impossible.”

Lucy fiercely turned around and stared at Joel in shock.

“Joel Foster! What do you mean by this?”

He smirked ruthlessly and replied, “It’s whatever you heard.”

Joel then turned to Mace and added, “A billion-dollar business. I’ll give it to you, but on one condition. You must break off your engagement with her.

Mace, do you want this business?”

Mace was stunned at the mention of those numbers. His expression changed and he asked, “One billion? President Foster, are you insane?”

Joel did not answer the question because he was indeed out of his mind. He only countered, “You can just say that you don’t want it.”

Lucy’s face paled.

She had no idea what Joel was up to!

“One billion. That was not a small amount. Joel casually just gave it away but under the premise that Mace broke up with her...’

“What did he mean by this?!’

Suddenly, Lucy thought of a possibility.

In the next second, she dismissed the idea.

Lucy could not believe that Joel cared this much about her. She was just overthinking it. Yes, she must be in over her head.

She was only worried about Mace.

Lucy did not know what he would choose.

She looked towards Mace while thinking.

During this time, Mace’s expression oscillated between predicament and determination.

“Not everyone would be able to casually hand over a billion-dollar business over a woman. At the very least, the Smith family did not have this capability.’

“Mace knew that a billion-dollar business would bring earth-shattering changes to the Smith family. It could improve their status by a few folds.’

“However, he would have to give up his fiancée, his beloved woman!’

Once he thought about this, Mace abruptly stopped himself from agreeing.

“He could not give up on Lucy because of money. He could not do this.’

“Even so...that was one billion!’

Just as Mace was deliberating with himself, Jada Swanson smiled and walked towards them.

“Joel, what joke are you cracking this time?”

Their commotion had already attracted the attention of others.

The people at the party were whispering and gossiping about Joel’s absurd actions.

They were all curious as to what made Joel act on such an impulse.

As Jada’s plastic posse caught her up on the surprising events, she felt a raging fire of jealousy burning within her.

“Lucy Katz! It was her again!’

Now, Jada could confirm that the woman Joel was pining over was indeed Lucy Katz.

“Otherwise, with Joel’s usual calmness, he would not do this sort of thing!’

Jada could not hold back the bitterness in her heart when she thought about this and hurriedly walked over to them as graciously as possible.

When she arrived, Mace was about to make his decision.

Jada was unaware of this.

All she could do was to stop this from happening.

She could not allow Joel to behave recklessly as her ultimate goal was to become Mrs. Foster!

Jada successfully interrupted Mace and stopped him from answering.

Mace finally came to his senses and a layer of cold sweat clung to his back.

Now he could not remember his answer.

However, he knew that if he made a decision, never mind Lucy Katz or the one billion, he would have regretted it. He might also regret it for life!

Mace felt incredibly lucky that Jada appeared at the right time.

He looked at Jada with gratitude but noticed that the latter had focused all her attention on Joel.

Jada flirtatiously said to Joel, “Joel, you’re only kidding, right?”

Joel’s complexion looked glum.

He stared bitterly at Jada and retorted, “What are you doing here?”

Jada froze and tried her best to exude elegance and sexiness.

“I’m here to attend the party. Naturally, upon hearing such big news, I will have to take a look for myself. You, on the other hand, are just being too rash tonight.”

The rain cloud over Joel’s face almost oozed water.

“Jada Swanson, you’re overstepping.”

Jada bit on her plump lips and felt somewhat wronged. Her heart continued to irradiate bitter envy.

“This Lucy Katz was rather oblivious to her current status! She even managed to seduce Joel into making such an irrational decision.’

At this point, Jada blamed Lucy for all the faults. One could see the hostility in her eyes.

Joel focused all his attention on Lucy and he was uninterested in Jada.

Even though he had his eyes on Lucy, the words from his mouth were directed to Mace.

“Young Master Smith, your decision?”

Mace’s face instantly turned pale. He gritted his teeth and pondered for a few seconds before he decisively said, “I will never give up Lucy.”

Joel curled up his lips cruelly and stated, “Oh? Is it? Is the amount too small?”

Lucy Katz and Jada Swanson simultaneously staggered.
