Chapter 470 A Bundle of Nerves
Joshua held his wrist, his expression as pitiful as a puppy. He had tears hanging from the corners of his eyes when
he pouted.
“Colton! Why is this woman at your office so cranky?!”
Colton held back the amusement in his eyes upon hearing that. His face when he looked at Joshua after that was
already calm.
“I told you to let go. You are the one looking for trouble by not listening. Serves you right.”
Joshua wiggled his butt as he slid backward and away from Nicole. It was only until he was considerably far from
her that he pitifully whined, “How was I supposed to know that such a fragile-looking pretty little lady was so

Nicole still didn’t hold herself back even after learning Joshua’s identity. Her eyes were fixated on him as she
warned, “Mr. Fleming, please make sure you keep a certain distance with women, especially ones that you have just
met. You won’t be let off so easily next time.”
Joshua felt even more aggrieved at her cold words.
“Hey, didn’t you hear Colton say who I am just now?” he muttered.
“I did.” She raised her eyebrows and crossed her arms across her chest, putting on an arrogant look. “So what? I
know that your name is Joshua. And?”
Joshua looked at the woman in front of him, and he found his curiosity piqued. Even though the Flemings’ main
business was not within the local market, it was well-known globally.
After all, the Flemings had the monopoly in the oil industry, and Joshua was the only heir to the family.
“I am the sole heir of the Fleming Family. Aren’t you a bold one, woman?!” Joshua eventually scolded, only to
subconsciously shrink away when Nicole’s frigid eyes landed on him.

The pain on his arm earlier was as clear as day. He was afraid he wouldn’t be able to handle it if he had to
experience it another time.
Nicole’s lips curled into a smile, and she suddenly became respectful as she told him, “Mr. Fleming, I definitely won’t
do anything if you don’t overstep the line. It was just an understanding earlier.”
Seeing her being respectful, he thought that Nicole was afraid of him, so he suddenly jumped up and went
rampant.
“It is too late for you to be scared! I’ll have you know—”
He hadn’t even finished his words when Nicole suddenly cut him off.
“I think you have misunderstood something, Mr. Fleming. I am not scared. I only want to tell you that if you do
something like this again, your arm might end up being plucked off.”
All of a sudden, the words that Joshua wanted to shout at her earlier were stuck in his throat.
What a vicious woman! he thought.
He then turned to look at Colton while he pointed at Nicole.

The corners of Colton’s lips lifted slightly at that. In a raspy voice, he replied, “It is the result of my pampering. No
big deal.”
Hearing that, Joshua quietly wondered again, Is this what marital harmony is?
“Alright, alright!” he muttered. “Have fun, you two. I don’t know if my wrist is fine or not. I am going to get a pretty
nurse to give me a checkup.”
After Joshua said that, he immediately left the office.
Colton only looked at Nicole after Joshua left.
“What do you think of Joshua?” he asked.
Meanwhile, Nicole had no intention of hiding her thoughts as she directly commented, “He is a bundle of nerves.
And he doesn’t seem very bright.”
Her opinion of Joshua made Colton chuckle. Even he had to agree that Joshua did give off such an impression with
how the situation ended up earlier.
However, Colton knew all too well that that was just a façade Joshua put on in front of others. The latter was
actually a decisive and ruthless person when facing his enemy.
