From Contract To All My Life: I Own You novel Chapter 40

'No, maybe I really thought too much. I was just a dispensable contractual person to him. How could he be emotional because of me?

Would a cold man like him be emotional because of me?'

Joy laughed at herself. 'Obviously, he wouldn't.'

Joy sighed deeply and looked up at the stars in the sky, because she was afraid that tears would inadvertently fall down.

Joy sensed the change in her heart. She knew that something could not be returned to the beginning, at least her heart could not be returned.

When Amy came back, she saw the thin figure of Joy standing at the door of the tent. She looked up at the sky motionless, but her whole body was surrounded by sadness, like a lonely woman who was hurt by love.

"What's wrong?"

A soft voice sounded in her ears. Joy didn't look at Amy, who was standing next to her, but remained motionless.

"Amy, have you ever liked someone?"

Amy was puzzled by Joy's question. When she was about to shake her head and say no, the warm man she met yesterday appeared in her mind.

With a smile at the corners of her mouth, Amy turned to look at Joy and said, "Maybe it is love at first sight."

Surprised, Joy turned to look at Amy, who was obviously in a good mood and looked up at the sky.

Joy didn't expect that there would be a man that the beauty Amy would fall in love with, and Joy grew curious about the man Amy said she fell in love with at first sight.

Joy asked curiously, "Amy, tell me, what's the man's name? Where is he from? What does he look like?"

Amy shook her head.

This made Joy confused. 'What did she mean by shaking her head?

Did she see a man in her dream and fall in love with him at the first sight?

It was not impossible.'

Seeing that Joy was stunned as if she was frightened, Amy explained to Joy, "The reason why I don't know the specific identity of that man is that I met him by chance yesterday."

"What? Yesterday? Why don't I know? Did you go to see that man just now?"

Amy didn't say anything, which meant she acquiesced.

Amy did sneak around in the hope of meeting that man, but she didn't find him after she went through several camps around.

Her silence made Joy more curious. She grabbed Amy's arm and shook it coquettishly, "Amy, my good Amy, tell me what that man looks like."

Amy pushed Joy's hand away and glared at Joy, pretending to be angry, "It's not enough for you to disgust your brother just now, and now you want to disgust me."

Joy curled her lips in grievance.

'I just acted like a spoiled child. Was it so unacceptable?'

When Joy kept complaining in her heart, Amy said.

"I was in a hurry yesterday and I didn't see him clearly, but I remember his eyes." Amy smiled and continued, "His eyes are very charming, just like... Just like spring water reflecting pear flowers... "

"Anyway, he is a warm person. Even if I see him again, I will definitely recognize him."

——Warm.

Somehow, when Joy heard Amy talk about warmth, she thought of the man who looked like Wilson.

He hadn't been here since yesterday. Of course, Joy hadn't seen him either. Maybe he was busy saving the wounded, or the man had left the G City.

"Well, we haven't eaten anything yet, and we have slept enough. Let's go to eat something and pack it back by the way, preparing for tomorrow in advance."

Amy calmed down first and patted on Joy's shoulder, indicating her to go in and change her clothes.

The second morning, the two of them ran to the disaster area to collect information before it got dawn.

After several days of hard work, the rescue work was almost finished. More than half of the people under the ruins were rescued, and only a few were still buried under the ruins.

The two of them didn't come yesterday, so they didn't know that the G City had received nearly two thousand earthquake relief workers from different countries. At the same time, nearly a hundred vehicles of earthquake relief materials, medical equipment and other necessary supplies had been transported. It was said that these materials were donated by some rich people.

Joy also heard that someone in the A City had donated a total of five hundred million materials to the G City.

'Five hundred million? That's a huge amount of money! It's too much money. With such a great person's kindness, it seems that the people of the G City don't have to worry about food and clothing in the following days.

Hold on, is it Jimmy? No, no, No. how could a cold-blooded and greedy man like Jimmy do such a thing? It must not be him.'

However, Joy was really interested in the person that the crowd were talking about. After all, there was very few people who was rich and caring in this era.

In the past few years, as a news reporter, Joy often went to the parties, birthday parties and other places held by the upper class with the editor in chief because of her work. Naturally, she didn't dare to say that she had seen all the powerful people in the A City, but she had seen many of them.

However, they didn't mention the name of the donor. Joy didn't care about it and ran forward with the camera.

With the increase of volunteers, the rescue work today was exceptionally easy, but there were more news worth reporting, so the two of them were even busier.

"Miss Joy, a man named Mr. Li said he wanted to see you and asked you to go to the place written on it to find him." The man handed the note to Joy and continued, "You can walk 100 meters east from here. There is a black Cadillac in the parking lot. He will take you to find someone. !"

At this time, Joy was holding the camera to take photos. Hearing the sound behind her, she slowly stood up and took the note from his hand. The note said that she had to come, he would appreciate it. Staring at the note, Joy pondered for a few seconds.

Then Joy raised her head and asked, "Do you know why he wants to see me?"

The man said he didn't know, shook his head and left.

'His surname was Li, probably Ryan!

Did the editor in chief give any new order? Then why didn't he call me directly?'

When Joy was about to tell Amy, she looked around but couldn't find Amy.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Joy put the camera on her backpack and ran east, regardless of continuing to look for Amy.
