Chapter 133
Joseph changed direction and walked straight toward the figure he had just spotted.Wasn’t that the same woman he’d seen at Walton Corporation’s front desk posing as the younger heiress of the Walton family?
In an instant, the anger inside him reignited.
If not for this woman, he never would’ve said those things in front of Aurora.
Now, every time he faced her, there was an awkwardness he couldn’t shake, especially after spewing all that harsh nonsense and ending up thoroughly humiliated.
It was all this woman’s fault.
He had to find out who she really was.
Joseph stormed forward and saw her nestled against a man.
Without hesitation, he yanked Tessa away. “You bitch, who the hell are you?”
Tessa had still been stewing over Aurora’s moment of glory, her mind spinning with schemes for what to do next.
She was caught off guard when someone suddenly dragged her aside, and before she could even react, she was being showered
with verbal abuse.
No one would tolerate that calmly.
When she got a clear look at Joseph’s face, her fury erupted. “Let go of me, you lunatic!”
But Joseph refused to release her.
He’d finally caught this woman; he wasn’t letting go so easily. “No, I won’t. What can you do about it?”
“If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have mistaken her identity!”
Julian didn’t hesitate.
okay,
He punched Joseph straight in the face and swiftly pulled Tessa back into his arms, shielding her protectively. “Are you oka Tessa? Did you get hurt anywhere?”
Tessa shook her head and gripped Julian’s arm tightly. “I’m fine. It’s this man–he’s spouting nonsense.”
“Nonsense?” Joseph wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, glaring darkly at Tessa.
“That day in the lobby, weren’t you the one who told me you were the younger heiress of the Walton family?
“How else would I have made that mistake? Turns out you’re pretty calculating after all.”
To Joseph, she was nothing more than an opportunist, willing to say anything for a shot at climbing higher.

Tessa frowned. “I have no idea what you’re talking about. And for the record, you were the one who came up to me that day. I
don’t even know you.
“This is a Walton Corporation event. Don’t come here looking for trouble.”
Joseph scoffed, clearly unbothered. “Walton Corporation? Please, I know exactly what that means. But you? You’re nothing but a
fake. What are you even proud of?”
He reached out again, trying to grab her. “You’d better give me a proper explanation, or the Hunts won’t let you off the hook
“And that man beside you–he had the nerve to hit me? I won’t let either of you go.”
Julian’s patience finally snapped.
He swung his fist again, landing it squarely on the other side of Joseph’s face, creating a perfect match.
After the punch, Julian straightened his cuff and looked at Joseph with mock seriousness. “There. Nice and symmetrical. That’s
better.”
Tessa glanced at Joseph, now doubled over and groaning in pain, a cold glint flashing in her eyes, utterly satisfied.
What a worthless idiot.
At a time like this, instead of figuring out how to deal with Aurora, he was still clinging to her like some deranged stalker.
How could anyone be this brainless?
He was utterly useless.
Joseph exploded. “You hit me? Do you even know who I am?”
That line triggered a wave of laughter from the surrounding crowd.
