Wyatt's words unsettled Chloe, creating a sense of unease within her. She could not shake off the feeling that there was someone influential supporting Ava from behind the scenes. However, the substantial amount of money offered by Wyatt was too tempting to ignore.

Besides, considering that her relationship with the Johnsons was already strained, Chloe believed there was little to lose by assisting Wyatt. Therefore, she decided to help Wyatt. And as a show of sincerity, Wyatt transferred 50 thousand dollars as a deposit immediately after hanging up the phone.

Looks like Chloe was not the only one who found Ava detestable.

With the 100 thousand dollars, along with the money her mother had left her, she was getting closer to her goal of accumulating 280 million.

On another note, Emily had recently sent over the jewelry her mother had left behind, but Chloe had not had the chance to sort it out properly.

    Ava's ego balloon deflated a little, but she maintained her smile. "Are you jealous of me, Coco?""Why would I be jealous of you?" Chloe retorted.One of her colleagues tugged at her sleeve and said, "Chloe, are you one of Wyatt's haters?"Chloe innocently smiled, "Being a Wyatt hater is a waste of time."Everyone was stumped.“You've become a director in an entertainment company, Ava, so why settle for someone of such low status? You should at least aim for someone on the level of ‘Best Actor.’"Ava's eyes twitched, finding some truth in those words. Wyatt could not be considered exceptional in the entertainment industry, and given Ava's current position and status, she should have sought someone better.She glanced at the man who could not even utter a word when insulted and felt a surge of disgust.Having achieved her goal, Chloe did not give Ava a chance to speak further and grabbed her colleague's arm before turning away.Ava stomped her foot in anger and glared at Wyatt.

    Ava bristled at Joseph's comment, feeling her nerves being rubbed raw. Indignantly, she hissed, "Is this how you train your employees?"Joseph did not even spare her a glance. He scanned the lobby, taking in the scene, and asked, "What’s going on here?"Lucas turned his head and quietly explained the situation."Remove them from the premises," Joseph commanded."But they’ve already paid for the location, and breaching the contract would require triple compensation...""Do we not have enough money to pay for it?" Joseph asked, his voice indifferent."Understood, Mr. Joseph."After giving the order, Joseph and Alexander entered the elevator together.Lucas called the security guards to disperse the crew."We've already paid for the location. You can't do this to us. It's against the rules," the producer objected.With a polite smile, Lucas responded, "Our company will compensate for the location fee according to the stipulated penalty in the contract.""But we haven't finished

    Calvin was rendered speechless. "So I'm expected to educate Ava properly before introducing her to her grandparents?"Considering the circumstances, burdening the elderly couple once again would not be appropriate."I apologize for the trouble, Uncle Calvin," Noah said, rising from his chair and smoothing out the wrinkles on his white shirt as he prepared to leave.As he approached the door, Noah suddenly halted and turned his head toward Calvin. "During my journey to Aesper, I encountered a girl who bears a slight resemblance to Aunt Luciana.""There are plenty of people who resemble each other," Calvin said, casually brushing it off."Well, you're right." Noah paused a little before continuing, "I won't consider the arranged marriage between us. I'm only twenty this year while Ava is three years older than me. Besides, it appears she currently has a boyfriend."Calvin thought of Wyatt and felt a throbbing headache coming on. "Fine, fine. Just make sure you clarify the situation

    Lucas hesitated for a moment before handing over the tea tray in his hands. "I made two cups of chamomile. It's good for soothing nerves."Chloe nodded, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door."Come in."Joseph's voice came from inside, causing a sense of security to wash over her. With him around, she did not need to be afraid.Chloe pushed open the door and stepped into the room. Joseph was seated behind his desk, wearing a sky-blue tie that complemented his youthful and attractive appearance. As he caught sight of Chloe, his eyebrows arched in surprise.Calvin also noticed Chloe and immediately straightened his posture, his eyes fixed on her without blinking as he muttered to himself, "You...You do look a bit like her."‘In terms of appearance, the two of them share some resemblance, but it’s mostly their temperament that’s alike.’Luciana was only slightly older than Chloe when she passed away. In Calvin's heart, his beloved woman had always retained a youthful and ench

    Joseph enveloped Chloe in his arms and nestled his face near her neck. He then stated languidly, "I'll know after checking it out.""Hmm." Chloe found his hug a bit too tight, so she struggled briefly. "Let go. I can't breathe.""No. I won't let you go unless you kiss me."Chloe grasped his handsome face with both hands and gave him a peck on the lips before tilting her head and questioning exasperatingly, "Can you let go of me now?"Enjoying the moistness on his lips, Joseph's gaze darkened before he bent down and put his lips against hers again, kissing her deeply.After a while, Chloe pushed Joseph away, looking flushed. "Okay, that’s enough. We shouldn’t do such things in the office."Joseph's sharp, bewitching eyes lit up happily and passionately. "Okay, we'll continue when we get home tonight."Chloe knew what he meant, and her blush deepened. She stared at him bashfully. "We just started dating. You don't have to be in a rush to…""We're dating now, and you expect me to

  • Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love   Chapter 222 Maybe Xavia Isn’t That Wicked

    Chloe asked Xavia what it was about and asked if they could just discuss it over text instead, but Xavia did not reply.The appointed time Xavia fixed was an hour before Chloe got off work. After dwelling on it for a while, she decided to get up and took the elevator downstairs.It was just downstairs and was a very short distance. It would not take up much time.Outside the building, Xavia was silently waiting while holding an umbrella. Her complexion was horrible. She was wearing a sweater so that one could only vaguely see her hospital gown underneath. It was clear she had come straight from the hospital.Chloe raised her brows. "What can I do for you?""I'm sorry to disturb you again.""Just get to the point.""I've been undergoing chemo in the hospital recently, so I have no time to take care of Oreo. I'm worried about putting Oreo in boarding long-term, so can you and Joe please take care of my dog for a while?"Chloe's first response was to turn Xavia down. If she let Or

    "Of course not. That would be something a pervert does,” he teased before he explained seriously, "My friend lives here. I just had a meal at his place before coming out to get some fresh air. I also wanted to see if I’d have the chance to bump into you. Well, it's proved that we're destined to meet."Chloe nodded. She found that the dogs had had enough now and decided to head home. Unexpectedly, a stray cat ran out of the bush, exciting both Oreo and Toto. They excitedly pounced on the cat to play with it.Consequently, Chloe was dragged and, losing her balance, uncontrollably fell forward.Icarus reacted quickly and grabbed her before asking nervously, "Are you okay?""I'm fine." Chloe patted her chest to calm herself. After some difficulties, she struggled out of his arms. "Thank you. I would’ve fallen flat on my nose.""You're welcome."After that, Chloe lightly smacked Toto and Oreo's hips to punish them. Oreo seemed to have understood this. Its ears drooped as it looked at

    Chloe’s eyes went wide. When she noticed the teasing smile in his, she relaxed and groaned, retorting, "You’re the one who had a tryst with another man."“I have no interest in men."After that, Joseph recalled the call he got from Lucas earlier, and his voice turned dull. "Calvin and Karen don't know each other."Chloe pursed her lips. "Then it's impossible that Calvin likes Ava because of Karen. Does it mean that he truly likes her?"Many old people would adopt a child if they had no children. Although Ava was not very outstanding, she was great at acting, and Calvin might have a thing for scheming young women."This clue ends here but I found another one.""You found other clues?" Chloe widened her charming eyes and looked at him expectantly.Joseph answered slowly, enunciating every word he said, keeping her in suspense. "I'll tell you if you do a good job."She blushed vehemently and choked on her saliva before she started coughing. He patted her back calmly and smiled lik

    After Chloe calmed herself, she realized that the place she was in resembled the villa she lived in while overseas five years ago. However, upon closer inspection, the exterior scenery was different. She realized something and froze."Did you build a villa identical to the one I stayed in five years ago?" she asked.Noah was busy bandaging himself. Upon hearing her question, he replied, "Yeah, doesn't it look almost identical?"Chloe's gaze swept over every item in the room, and she admitted that she was touched. She turned back to Noah and looked at him gently as if she had returned to the time when she simply treated him as a little brother."How did you convince Tiffany to cooperate with you?"Tiffany had made her move while Noah distracted Desmond."I just told her about it, and she agreed."Chloe asked, "Do you think you’re treating her fairly?"Noah said flatly, "I’ll compensate her."Compensate? How? Chloe thought that youth was the most precious thing in the world, but

    In the Whitman family home, Joseph went to deal with a bunch of urgent company matters after putting Jasper to sleep. By the time he finished, it was already past three in the morning. He contemplated calling Chloe to ask about Noah's situation, but thinking it might disrupt her sleep, he abandoned the idea.When Joseph woke up the next day, it was already half past six. He recalled Chloe mentioning that Exotic Star had a new product launching today and that she would have to wake up early. He reached for his phone on the table, intending to call her.However, his hand slipped and the phone fell to the floor. The loud thud caused his heart to tremble. He stared at the shattered phone screen as he got a bad feeling. He grabbed his spare phone and quickly dialed Chloe's number. After ringing for some time, a cold, mechanical voice informed him that there was no one available to answer at the moment. Without hesitation, he immediately headed to the Sullivan Manor. When Joseph got ther

    “Yes, Grandpa, and I hope you won't stop me when the time comes," Noah said. "You're not discussing this with me. You're just informing me!" Desmond said exasperatedly. "I'm sorry, Grandpa.”Desmond hemmed and hawed for a long while, at a loss for words. He seemed to age ten years as he stared into the distance through the window. After a while, he said, "I've already had someone contact doctors abroad regarding your condition, so don't worry. All you have to do now is just focus on recovering. Don't give up so soon."Sensing Desmond's determination, Noah's eyes filled with tears. He too wished to spend a few more years with his grandfather.When they arrived at the Sullivan manor, the foreign doctors had replied. Upon learning that the renowned healer, Z, had treated Noah but only achieved limited success, they decided not to intervene.Noah was not discouraged by this. He comforted Desmond and said, "Grandpa, I would like to go abroad for a few days. It's been a long time sin

    Half an hour later, Desmond and Noah walked out of the ward together.Desmond said, "The doctor told you to stay in the hospital for a few more days, so why don't you just listen? If something happens to you again, they can treat you immediately."Noah smiled warmly and said, "It's okay. The medical equipment at home is sufficient."Desmond sighed. It would be good if Noah stayed at home as well. At least there would be more pairs of eyes on him.Desmond instructed the driver to come to the hospital’s basement car park. When he hung up the phone, he looked around the corridor and wondered, "Wasn't Chloe just sitting here? Where is she?"Noah did not say anything and just lowered his head."And where's Tiffany too? Call her. We need to go home," Desmond said as he took his phone out to call Chloe.However, Chloe did not answer his call. Noah did not call Tiffany. Instead, he said, "Her brother had something to discuss with her, so he came by and brought her home. Maybe Chloe ha

    Chloe looked at Tiffany and said sarcastically, "Not everyone is willing to contribute their entire life knowing that the other person doesn't like them."Tiffany had a heart problem. She might die at any moment, yet she chose to live around someone who did not love her back. Chloe often marveled at the greatness of love, but she would never possess such a sacrificial spirit.Tiffany laughed coldly. "It’s because I have compassion and you don't. When Xavia died before your eyes, you just coldly stared at her body."Chloe raised her head sharply, glared at Tiffany, and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Xavia took my child, stole my man, and wrecked my marriage! She nearly got me killed several times! If she hadn’t died, it might have been me! I should've celebrated her death with fireworks! None of you know what I've been through, so stop pointing fingers at me!"At first, she had felt responsible for Xavia's death, but she had since come to her senses. Xavia's death had nothing to

    Desmond was taken aback that he even forgot his cane and almost tripped on the carpet. He quickly got back up and headed for the second floor. The butler immediately called for an ambulance while the other housekeepers guided the panicked guests away.Chloe furrowed her brows, following Desmond into Noah's bedroom. The curtains were drawn tightly, blocking out all light. But just standing at the door, one could detect the strong scent of rust from inside.A helper flipped a switch, and the room was flooded with light. The wooden furniture was neatly arranged while neatly folded clothes sat on the sofa.Chloe looked around but did not see Noah. She then looked toward the bathroom and her face sank.Tiffany pointed to the bathroom and said, "He's in there."Desmond trembled as he pushed open the bathroom door. Inside was a mess, with red stains covering the floor. Noah was in the bathtub, his wet clothes clinging to his body. His arms hung limply over the tub's edge, and his head sl

    Chloe did not know how to answer."Say something. You wanted her dead, right? Are you happy now that she is dead?!” Kenneth shouted angrily at her, his eyes bloodshot and his gaze piercing.He was so loud that it drew the attention of many nearby. Callum and Joseph rushed over, and Joseph shielded Chloe behind him. He pushed Kenneth back several steps and said sternly, "Never speak of that woman in front of Chloe again. Otherwise, there'll be consequences!""Hah! Are you protecting a murderer?" Kenneth laughed. "Oh yeah, you’re both responsible for Xavia's death after all."Smack!Callum slapped Kenneth across the face, instantly silencing him. "Get a grip, Ken! Xavia deserved to die. Stop embarrassing yourself in front of Chloe.”Kenneth held his face as he muttered, "Yeah, you're right… Xavia should’ve died. She was evil. She deceived and took advantage of me… She should die..."Then why was he so tormented over her death? He could not sleep or eat. He knew Xavia deserved th

    Joseph frowned. "Of course not. Her death has nothing to do with you. Promise me you won’t think such thoughts."The unexpected turn of events caught both Chloe and him off guard. Xavia clearly wanted to haunt Chloe forever by killing herself in front of her. Although he felt shocked, he was not deeply shaken. After all, he had not witnessed Xavia's jump, and Xavia probably thought that the third floor was not enough to kill her. After all, being in the hospital for treatment was better than being detained by the police.Chloe looked at Joseph with vacant eyes and smiled bitterly. "You're right. It’s good that she's finally dead. She got what she deserved, and I should be happy," she said."Exactly. Even if she didn't jump, the police would’ve arrested her," Joseph said gently, "It's my fault for asking you to buy us some time. If she comes back as a ghost to haunt you, I'll stop her."Joseph, Tyson, and a few officers had arrived just moments after Xavia jumped. He had brought a g

    Everyone erupted into gasps. As a deafening crash came from below, the staff scattered. Some ran downstairs to try and rescue Iris. Some who had rushed to the windows shouted anxiously, "She's still alive!"Everyone around Chloe was running as her mind was filled with an endless ringing. The whole world became a blur. She never imagined that things would end like this. The meeting hall was on the third floor. It was not too high, but it could be fatal if one were to land on their head. Everyone's accusatory gaze fell on Chloe, and the crowd started to murmur."Damn, how could she do this to Iris? Do you think she’ll be haunted by nightmares tonight?""Yeah, why does she insist that Iris is Xavia?""What if Iris dies? Won’t Ms. Chloe indirectly become a murderer?""Do you think Iris will come for revenge in the middle of the night when she dies?"Something inside Chloe snapped, and she shouted, "It wasn't me! What she did has nothing to do with me!"Her outburst silenced the ro
