Chapter 11
The light in the box was dim.
The girl sat on Humphrey‘ lap, too nervous to breathe.
She had heard about Humphrey.
It is said that he and Willette, the eldest daughter of the Smith family, were originally in love with each other, but later for some reason he fell in love with her younger sister Joey.
Later, Willette was fired.
The girl thought that judging by the direction of the story, Joey must be a femme fatale, the kind that could seduce people.
Otherwise, why would this famous boss kick out Willette for him and become the drunken and dreaming person he is now?
Humphrey didn’t know what the girl was thinking.
He reached out and lifted her chin, examining her like a work of art.
At this moment, the girl suddenly plucked up the courage and put her arms around his neck.
Humphrey was stunned, but did not refuse.
He is not a gentleman at all.
After Joey left, all I wanted to do was piece together what she looked like from other people with similar faces.
Unfortunately, this time, the girl broke the taboo right away.

She leaned close to Humphrey‘ ear and called out coquettishly, “Brother–in–law…”
Hearing these two words, Humphrey‘ drunken eyes suddenly cleared
- up.
With a cold face, he pushed the girl off him!
The girl screamed and fell to the ground.
“What did you call me just now?” Humphrey looked down at her with a cold look in his eyes.
He was just drunk, but not crazy.
He knows that these people are not Joey and will never be able to replace Joey.
“I, I…” The girl was so frightened that she crawled out of the box.
Humphrey suddenly lost interest.
He loosened his tie and prepared to go out for some fresh air.
When passing by a private room, I caught a glimpse of a girl sitting inside.
The girl was wearing an Oxyork Universoty uniform, and her figure and hairstyle resembled Joey. At the moment, she was snuggling up to a man, listening to him singing tenderly.
Humphrey‘ pupils suddenly shrank, and a hint of disbelief and surprise flashed in his eyes.
He pushed open the door of the box eagerly, strode up to the couple, and pushed the man away with force.

Then, he hugged the girl tightly in his arms.
“Joey!” His voice trembled, and his arms held her like steel. “I’ve been looking for you everywhere, and you’re here hanging out with another man. Believe it or not, I’m going to kill you!”
The girl was terrified.
She struggled desperately, “I’m not Joey, let me go!”
Humphrey turned a deaf ear.
When the man saw his girlfriend being bullied, he quickly got up from the ground, picked up the bottle on the table and smashed it on Humphrey‘ head.
With a “bang“, the wine bottle broke into pieces.
There was a cry of surprise in the box.
When the boss arrived, Humphrey was already awake.
With gauze wrapped around his head, he sat on the sofa like a wounded lone wolf, clutching in his hand a half–knitted scarf for him by Joey.
After Joey went abroad, her roommate gave him this scarf.
From then on, he kept her by his side all the time.
Some people say he has mental problems, others say he is just. pretending to be affectionate.
Humphrey didn’t deny it.
}
After all, even he himself didn’t understand why it turned out like this.
His acquaintance with Joey was the result of revenge.
For two years he had been playing tricks on Joey for Willette, and finally he had driven her to despair.
The day before Joey left, he even told the kidnappers to do whatever they wanted with her.
How did she feel at that time?
Humphrey raised his head sharply and pressed his hand hard between his eyebrows, trying to resist the self–blame that was pouring in like a tide.
I don’t know how long it took, but an almost absurd idea came into my
mind.
He suddenly picked up the phone and dialed a number, saying in a tough tone: “I’ll give you three days to help me enter the global war zone as a communications expert. No matter where Joey hides, I must find her!”
