Chloe felt like her heart was in her throat, making her unable to articulate her emotions. She had worked hard and earned recognition from her teacher for achieving excellent results, only to discover that Joseph had already spoken to the teacher and secured her a high score.

She understood Joseph's good intentions but could not shake off her unease. She felt that all her efforts had been in vain. She had put so much heart into that proposal, yet Joseph seemed to doubt her capabilities.

Noah watched her expression closely and retrieved a brochure. He passed it to her, saying, “I’ve set up an office in Estre, which compliments your business quite well. We can collaborate if you’re interested. As for your family's company, we can explore a merger if you think it's viable."

Chloe was astounded. "You're opening an office in Estre?"

"I like Estre, and my grandfather also wants me to gain some experience there."

"But why me?"

Noah scratched his head and smiled gently. Two dimples appea

    Chloe suddenly calmed down. After all, she could not help but overthink things because she loved him."Let's go outside and talk," Joseph said, taking her hand as they left the ward.Xavia watched him leave without even a backward glance. She fiercely punched the pillow, her face contorting in anger. If she did not need the baby in Chloe's belly, she would have wished for the woman to get run over by a car."I didn't charge my phone last night. I received the caregiver’s call when I arrived at the office and rushed to the hospital. I wanted to call you, but that's when I realized my phone had died," Joseph explained.Chloe looked at the phone Joseph had stuffed into her hands. Indeed, it was dead. She returned it to him, asking, "Then why didn't you ask Lucas to come?""Lucas is on vacation," he replied somewhat helplessly, "I can't squeeze work out of him during his time off, can I?"Chloe paused and said seriously, "No, you can't." She knew Lucas was facing enough pressure. Now

    Cyrus' voice remained indifferent as he said, "Don't resort to killing to solve your problems. It's too bloody."Xavia swallowed her next words, thinking that he had done far bloodier things in the past, so why hesitate now?"The Sullivan Group is a partner company of the Whitman Group and Fairlight, so don't touch them. When I take over, I don't want these two companies to become useless messes." Not only did he not want to be the one to clean up the messes, but he also knew that Fleurette would feel heartache over such a situation."Okay… But what if Noah tries to blackmail me with it?""Having more allies is better than having more enemies. Do you know what I'd like to see?" Cyrus asked, his voice dripping with venom. "I know... You want to see the Whitmans isolated and defeated on all fronts," Xavia replied.From the other end of the phone came a low chuckle. That was right. Cyrus despised the Whitmans more than anything else in his life. *About a week later, Harold se

    Preston's face became as dark as the bottom of a burnt kettle, and Octavia looked distressed. Was Joseph destined to kick them out? "Tell Jon to get back here. How could he still be in the mood to go galavanting when we're about to lose everything we have?!" Octavia called Jonathan, but he told her some fantastic news."Mom, our chip research was a success. I'll be receiving 300 million dollars as a bonus."Overwhelmed with excitement, Octavia could hardly speak coherently, "This is great! You truly are wonderful, my son! "Preston snatched the phone and said, "Hurry up and come back. You're now our only hope of taking Joe down."Octavia hesitated for a moment and said, "But dear, 300 million dollars is nothing to Joe.""You fool," Preston berated her exasperatingly, "With that much money, we can do a lot. We don't have to confront him head-on."*After watching the live broadcast, Chloe called Joseph. However, he seemed too busy to answer her call.Worried about Harold's co

    Thankfully, Lucas got there in time and instructed the security guards to drive the reporters away. He then led her to the safety of the elevator."I'm afraid those reporters won't budge for the day. You’ll have to leave through the back door later."Chloe knitted her brows slightly. "Got it. Is Joseph very busy today?" Lucas nodded firmly. "Yes, he's been having meetings with the executives. Someone opposes the motion of dismissing Preston from the board. They think it's bad for Fairlight’s reputation.""Yes, it kind of is,” Chloe replied honestly.Lucas gave her a strange look. 'I wasn’t expecting her to be so kind. Octavia has targeted her many times, yet she doesn’t hold a grudge against Octavia's family.'"Dismissing Preston is ideal but it'd be better to do it quietly and not let everyone learn about it." Preston and his family were ungrateful pests. They leeched off Joseph but never once showed gratitude toward him. Joseph might as well give up such relatives.Lucas wa

    A stalemate ensued. Chloe could no longer hear Joseph's retorts. Subconsciously, she was enlightened—Edgar had been telling the truth."What are you waiting for, Lucas?" Gloominess spread through Joseph's eyes, his whole body exuding a cold aura. "Drag this madman out!"Noticing that he had achieved his goal, Edgar sneered and left without any prompting from Lucas. The latter did not dare to linger either. He gently closed the door and hurriedly left the warzone.Joseph wanted to take Chloe's hand but the latter shifted her body and dodged him.He said helplessly, "That was all in the past. Just let it go." "But Xavia is still in our lives right now. She's not the past."Chloe was irritated by the fact that Xavia would appear from time to time. She felt that Noah was right. A love affair should only concern two people, so why was there a third party?"She’ll become part of the past once she has given birth to the child."Chloe stared straight at him. "Will her child become a p

    The deep crease between Joseph's brows slowly smoothed out. He picked up the cup of tea and gulped it down."Where did she go?"Lucas pointed at the back door fire escape.Joseph nodded before hurriedly going after her.Shaking his head helplessly, Lucas felt that Joseph should be so tough since he should be coaxing her.When Joseph reached the back door, Chloe was nowhere to be found. He frowned and decided to call her."Mr. Joseph."He suddenly heard a gentle voice that sounded shy and surprised. He turned around and saw Hazel standing in front of him, her white T-shirt and pleated skirt setting off her pureness.Joseph narrowed his eyes. "What are you doing here?"Hazel grasped the hem of her shirt and asked anxiously, "Didn't my father come to you?" "Yes, he just left." "I'm sorry, Mr. Joseph. Please allow me to say sorry on his behalf." Her bow was sincere as she expressed her apology. "It's fine as long as you stop him from making a scene here again," Joseph stated

    Chloe closed her eyes. She then looked up at Hazel after a flash of understanding, her eyes ice-cold. "Your father left, and then you came. What the hell do you two want? Are you done here?"Hazel was frightened, so she explained timidly, "I'm here to explain. There's nothing else.""Are you here to explain or to get close to Joseph? I'm sure you know your own intentions."Hazel was not a virtuous woman since she was entangled with a married man like Preston.Joseph was hit by a wave of displeasure. "Watch your tongue.""Are you feeling sorry for her?" Chloe did not hide the sarcasm in her voice."Chloe…" he said her name slowly as anger and helplessness engulfed him. She was the only woman he cared about, but she still doubted him."Please don't fight because of me. I'll leave now," Hazel hurriedly chimed in."Go, and don't just say that for show. Don't be trying to fish for his compassion." With her arms over her chest, Chloe shot Hazel a fierce glare as if she had seen throu

  • Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love   Chapter 505 Joseph the Scumbag

    Joseph tilted his head, his face expressionless and his gaze indifferent. "Did they go to you for the lawsuit?"Samuel was Joseph's high school classmate. After Joseph went abroad to establish his business, the Whitmans thought that he and Samuel had ceased contacting each other."Of course not. I’m too expensive for them to hire." Samuel looked proud but a look of disdain engulfed him soon after. "Jonathan hired the second best—that lawyer who is always one level weaker than me."In the law industry, Samuel sat in the top spot while Victor Cottrell was in second.Joseph tilted his head and snorted. "Victor Cottrell?"“Right on the money.""His father came here to make a scene today."Samuel reacted. "So, this family knows Preston? Are they on the same boat?""Yes, they're the ones who will sink or swim together."Samuel poured a glass of water and swiftly gulped it down. "What's your plan?" Joseph shot his friend with a cold, scornful glare. "Can't you handle it?""Yes, I

    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
