The Rise of Dragon Temple

Chapter 49

In Gempoint Group president’s office, Joseph continued to make arrangements with Alpha 1. “After this, go to the Municipal Administration Department, Police Department, and the other departments to exchange information….” With a smile, Alpha I nodded and assured, “Don’t worry, Mr. Dawson. I have talked to all the departments in Oplen. They not only expressed their full support, but they are also grateful that you held your wedding here as it greatly benefits Oplen…”

To that, Joseph nodded. Then, when he wanted to say something, his phone rang. It was Paige who called. “Hey Paige, what’s up?”Joseph answered the call. Paige hesitated for a while before she whispered, “Joseph… Grandpa wants to have lunch with you. Are… Are you free?” When Joseph heard that, his eyes turned, and a few thoughts came across his mind. He thought Leonard was indeed quick-witted enough to suspect him. After all, he bought Estella a car and a house in Paragon Villa yesterday. Through this, Leonard must have caught on to something. However, to him, it didn’t matter as the wedding was driving near. Thus, he nodded and agreed, “Sure. I will come to you later…” After hanging up the phone, Joseph looked at Dennis and Ernie. “Alright. That’s all from me. You may go back to work.” With that, Dennis and Ernie left with great respect. Then, Alpha 1 smiled at Joseph and said, “Oh, it seems like Leonard is suspicious of something. Speaking of him, he is also a big shot. In recent years, he single-handedly expands Aceshine Group to what it is today. It’s just that he is too old, and I heard that he is now supporting his grandson, Maxton Mooney, who is serving in the military. Also, he has great expectations for Maxton, saying that Maxton will definitely lead his family to glory in the future…” However, Alpha 1 soon paused for a while and added in a playful tone, “Haha, but he is short-sighted after all. Perhaps he has been in a small town for too long, so he has no idea how big the outside world is. Why would he care about Maxton when he has a grandson-in-law that is way more powerful than the god of war?” Hearing that, Joseph chuckled and waved his hand, “Well, you also said that he is old and short-sighted. Whatever. I have been giving them chances all the time, and the choice is in their hands. Alright, you should also go ahead and do your work. The wedding must not go wrong. As for me, I will go and meet the old Patriarch of the Mooney family…” A smile flashed across his eyes. There was more than an hour before noon. When Joseph got downstairs and saw

whole time, Lily never stopped smiling, while Paige just sat silently with her hands secretly clenching under the table. As Lily had gotten Gempoint Group’s collaboration agreement, Paige felt somewhat unwilling. With that, she sighed inwardly, and a trace of helplessness flitted through her eyes. “Paige, where is Joseph? Have you contacted him?” Leonard—who was sitting by the window-asked Paige. “He just called me and said that he will arrive soon. Right now, there are some traffic congestions. Sorry, Grandpa…” Paige explained. “It’s alright. Let’s wait. We are not in a hurry anyway…” Leonard nodded without any hard feelings. Then, he opened the window, looked at the scenery outside, and breathed in some fresh air. But just at this time, a brand new black Mercedes pulled up abruptly in front of the restaurant entrance downstairs. Following that, the handsome and refined Joseph in a black suit got down from the car. At once, Leonard-who was looking down

even if he marries Paige, he is nothing but a grandson-in-law…” Lily mocked with disdain. Anyway, there was nothing she liked about Joseph. Upon hearing that, Leonard frowned and reprimanded, “Enough! Didn’t you

several years ago, Aceshine Group had always wanted to cooperate with Gempoint Group. However, they couldn’t achieve it throughout these times. Moreover, Rory and Lily were together for more than three years. If Lily got the contract only with the help of the Shelton family, she should have gotten it long ago. Therefore, Leonard couldn’t help feeling something was amiss. Even so, this wasn’t the right time to say anything. Hence, he only nodded and replied. “Alright, thanks for being considerate, Rory. The Mooneys are grateful for what you did this time. Thank you.” Hearing that, Rory also responded with a nod before he looked at Paige insultingly
