Chapter 691 691: Don’t You Think That’s Serious?
There was an uncontrolled cry from Irish's mouth.
Just then, the fireworks bloomed again to cater to her cry.
Irish's body shook, and she groaned for a long time, which she never had. Because, at this time, she felt different.
The excitement lasted longer than ever.
Her wailing turned into groans and then to breathing, trembling, and convulsions. What exactly did he do to her?
This time, Joseph no longer gave her breathing time.
He did not stop for a second as she tightened and wailed up to the top, changed his slow pace, and began to make the speed rise and fall.
He gasped heavily at her body.
He became wild.
Irish's brain was blank, feeling like a boat in the waves, bumping in the storm.

The house of the Lake family was completely empty.
Although Shirley did not want to do so, she could not help and finally had to live in Roy's house first after receiving the lawyer's letter.
William Lake's family originally wanted to wait for Irish to come back for the acquisition of the old house, but they did not wait for her to appear. Later, through Joseph, they knew that she had gone on holiday. Joseph meant that Irish's private property legally owned Lake's old house, so no one was allowed to move in without the consent of the owner.
Therefore, William also moved out of the old house in anger.
At this time, Shirley was so depressed that Ruby's affairs made her completely lose face.
She had tried to find the girl named Emery, hoping that she could leave Ruby, but later, Ruby learned about it and simply moved into Emery's house after a big quarrel with her.
It never occurred to Shirley that one day she would object to a woman whom her daughter was dating.
One day, William Lake unexpectedly came to Roy, saying they would have a holiday together, but when Roy returned home and just sat down, William explained his intention.
He hoped Roy would suspend work at the airport and return to the Runestone Group to take control of the entire operation.
Roy was not interested in these things, and when he heard this, he was impatient. He said it was good that Joseph was looking at the company, as he did not know about the diamond industry, so he could not help the company.
After hearing this, Shirley began to persuade Roy, "Your uncle and I made a decision together. Roy, why can't you see the situation clearly?"
"What is the situation now?" Roy was puzzled.
Shirley began to analyze, "Although you are a major shareholder, Joseph now absorbs a portion of the Lake's shares, which is almost the same as yours in equity holdings. Is there anyone from the Lake family working in the whole company now? What does it mean that even your uncle's position has not been stored so far? It means that the Runestone Group is now Joseph's world, and he just wants to take it and remove every member of the Lake family from the company."
"How is that possible?" Lilith, who had been sulking at food, could not help but speak and murmur, "My brother-in-law is not that kind of person."
"Why do you still call him brother-in-law? Who he marries makes you call him brother-in-law?" Shirley yelled at her in a low voice.
Lilith looked aggrieved. "Even if he's not with Ruby, he's still with my second sister. Sooner or later, I should call him brother-in-law."
"What's the mess? How do you know about the relationship details between Joseph and Irish?" Shirley wrinkled her eyebrows.
"What? Don't you know? They are in a relationship," Lilith said.
Shirley stared at her with a cold face, "Keep on eating. If you don't help at Lake's house, just forget it. Don't mess with me. Do you think I don't know about your movements in Florida? I'll handle your affairs later!" 𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺
Lilith quickly shut up.
At this time, Shirley and Kelly were on the same team.
"Roy, let's see. The Lake is basically here, but are any of us working for the company? You can no longer stand idly. Even if you do nothing in the Runestone Group, at least you let the whole company know that the Lake family is still in charge." 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼m
"Does it make sense to fight for this false title? We all know Joseph is a more reliable and capable person to handle the entire Runestone Group." Roy frowned his eyebrows.
Shirley was shocked.
William sighed after hearing the words. "Well, I'll tell you something meaningful." He adjusted his sitting posture. "Just a few years ago, Joseph kicked out the only three old shareholders left in the Lake family from the board of directors. Don't you think that's serious?"
Roy was stunned. "Why don't I know about this?" He was the chairman of the board of directors, but he just knew that.
"Because you gave Joseph all the power to appoint." William looked serious. "He has your authorization, and he also owns a stake in the Lake family, so he is more fearless in shuffling his card. Roy, as the eldest son of the Lake, you must return to the Runestone Group; otherwise, it will be sooner or later for Joseph to annex the company."
Roy kept silent.
"There's one more thing you don't know." William added quickly, whose tone was a little hesitant and small, "It should be said
that none of us must know."
As soon as Shirley heard it, she urged him to speak quickly.
Even Lilith looked up at him curiously, wondering what it was.
William took a deep breath and thought about it for a long time. "Roy, I suspect your father's death has something to do with Joseph."
Hearing that, Shirley's whole body trembled.
And Roy felt like he heard a fantasy. "Uncle, are you okay? How do you come to such a conclusion for no reason? Is that what you're gonna tell me?"
"What is it 'for no reason'?" William frowned. "To be honest, I have no personal grudges against Joseph. I have only words about him on business. Originally I didn't want to doubt him, but the more I thought about it, the more wrong it was. I thought our family had already fallen into Joseph's careful design trap. Before your father died, the two of them had quarreled many times, and once at the Lake's house, I heard it myself. I heard your father yell at Joseph, saying he was retaliating on business and disobeyed his decision to cut down his power. And Joseph said that your father was old, and this was not his age. The two quarreled a lot. Then it happened that Leo made a blow against the Runestone Group, and I wondered how things could be so coincidental. Leo could do that at any time, but why did he do that when your father returned to the board of directors?"
