Chapter 709
The CEO’s Surrogate Wife
âBig brothers, Granny, Iâm wrong. I wonât wander around anymore...â
However, although she bursts into loud sobs, there is no one to help her.
Hungry and tired, she can only hear her own echo.
She looks around and finds it pitch dark everywhere. Afterwards, she canât help but burst into tears.
Perhaps she is tired from crying, and when she hears the sound in the surroundings, she involuntarily thinks of ghosts... Then she becomes even more frightened, curls her entire body behind the tree and looks around in fear, afraid that something terrifying will suddenly jump up.
However, not long after she tenses up, she breaks into tears again.
If she had known, she wouldnât have been so playful and secretly run out. Brothers and Granny, could they have forgotten about her?
Thinking of this, Joey feels more aggrieved. Her cries become louder and louder. She doesnât want to care so much. She just wants to return home and eat.
âMom...â she mutters to herself.
Then, a flashlight is shining on Joeyâs body.
As the light is too strong, she can only block it with her hands. She then stares ahead with her eyes wide open.
Because she knows that her savior is here.
âDare you run outside alone next time?â A cold shout rang out.
Joey immediately recognizes it. This is the voice she is most familiar with.
Thus, regardless of the situation, she directly pounces forward and sobs excitedly. She hugs Ben who is walking towards her, âBig brother, I know you will come looking for me.â
Right now, it is as if she has grabbed onto a life-saving straw and is unwilling to let go anyhow.
âSuch a crybaby! Why did you run so far and get lost? Do you know that our entire family has been out to look for you?â Ben is bluntly criticizing her.
Usually, Joey would not be polite to him. But now, she feels warm. As long as she is by her brotherâs side, she will be satisfied.
âBig brother, I know that Iâm wrong. Iâll listen to you in the future, and I wonât run around anymore.â Joey is afraid of the dark and ghosts the most, so she will learn from the lesson and behave well.
âDo you know that we are all worried for you?â Andre adds, looking at his sister unhappily.
Carmen even steps forward and pretends to spank Joey, but, she does not exert any strength at all.
Only now does Joey know that everyone has come. At this moment, all her bad feelings are gone.
âThe next time you sneak out, Iâll find you and lock you up in your room every day. I wonât even let you out of the courtyard,â Carmen is shouting.
Joey doesnât dare to refute her at this moment. She just nods obediently.
Her obedience makes Carmen not bear to keep accusing her.
âYou should be hungry now, right? You look dirty all over. Letâs go home and take a bath and eat. Everyone is hungry,â Carmen instructs her.
Joey feels remorse. It turns out that everyone didnât eat in order to find her. She has done something wrong this time, and it is such a serious mistake.
âGuys, donât worry. There wonât be another time.â
On the way back, Joey keeps repeating this.
Ben retorts impatiently, âYouâre going to be a repeater. You keep repeating that.â
After hearing this, Joey doesnât dare to speak again.
âAlright, let it pass. Donât tell Mom and Dad about it so they wonât be worried.â Carmen feels that she should also talk to the bodyguards, in case they tell Miya.
After returning, Joey bathes herself and eats silently. She doesnât even dare to make a sound, just like a child who has done something wrong.
Carmen is unaccustomed to the silent Joey who has always been lively and cheerful before.
âJoey, just remember not to be so mischievous.â Carmen canât help but say.
Joey immediately puts down the bowl and chopsticks.
âIâm full. Take your time.â
Carmen looks at Joeyâs bowl and finds that it is still full. However, when she turns around, Joey has already run upstairs.
It looks like Joey is burdened by guilt and regret.
Everyone looks at each other and no one speaks.
...
Alex Villa.
Miya deliberately leans towards Alex, âI really miss Joey and the others...â
Alex pretends not to hear that and keeps typing on the computer. It seems that he must concentrate on his work, so donât disturb him.
âHey...â Miya canât hold on any longer.
The man who is working on the keyboard still doesnât respond.
Heâs pretending to be a workaholic now, isnât he?
âIf you donât answer me now, Iâll run away.â It is time for Miya to show her trump card.
As soon as she finishes speaking, Alex hurriedly closes the computer in his hand and puts it aside. He smiles playfully and walks over, âWife, donât be angry. I am here.â
âLetâs go and bring the children back.â Miya doesnât know what this man is thinking.
âThe time is not ripe yet. We have to wait,â Alex says seriously to Miya.
Miya says impatiently, âYouâve always been saying this. What exactly are you doing secretly? Tell me the truth. How long do we need to wait? Give me a specific time.â
She feels that she canât wait for a second.
âOtherwise, Iâll immediately go over there by helicopter and live with the children.â Miya has already prepared for the worst.
Upon hearing this, Alex is a little anxious.
âHoney, donât worry. Itâs just these few days anyway. Let me tell you, weâll be able to bring the children back next week,â Alex says confidently.

Miya looks at him in disbelief, âIs what you said true?â
Alex nods seriously.
âAlright. If you donât bring the children back in a week, Iâll go to the island and leave you alone.â Miya feels that she must say something unpleasant to scare him.
âWife, donât be so cruel to me.â Alex feels as if he has been played around by this woman. However, he enjoys this.
Miya has become more and more adorable.
