Chapter 574 Ahh, the Charm of an Ex, How Precious

Author: Aurora Summers
Joseph felt troubled. "She had something to tell me about you, so I agreed to give her a ride."

"About me?"

"About your pregnancy."

Chloe's expression darkened as she turned to look at Xavia. "How did you find out about my pregnancy?"

"I saw your belly showing signs of protrusion when we were underwater at the pool yesterday.” Xavia shrugged.

"Is that so?" Chloe sneered. "Normally, if someone can't swim, they wouldn’t be able to open their eyes underwater."

Xavia shrugged and stated, "I don't know how to swim, and Joe knows that. What good is there for me to deceive you?"

"Xavia really can’t swim." Joseph nodded, addressing the matter at hand.

In the past, Xavia had never participated in any water-related activities. There was even an incident where she fell off a boat and almost drowned.

Chloe snorted sarcastically. "Yeah, right, You just seem to know everything, don't you?"

‘He offered no defense and instead chose to side with Xavia. Ahh, the charm of an ex. How precious,’

    Xavia could not contain her cry of pain as a sharp tearing sensation shot through her scalp. Fear gripped her as she said in desperation, "If you dare lay a finger on me, I'll get Duskfall to kill you!"The next moment, a resounding sound reverberated through the air as a powerful slap struck Xavia's face. The strength behind a man's strike was vastly different from that of a woman's. While the slap from Chloe the previous day had been painful, it was within her tolerance levels. However, the force of Noah's slap left her reeling, her face throbbing as if her skin had been torn apart.Xavia's chest heaved uncontrollably. The intense pain twisted her features and she trembled with a mixture of anger and agony."You hit me… How dare you!" She seethed with fury, her anger overpowering her as she lunged toward Noah, ready to strike back.Noah remained calm and composed, not bothered to evade her oncoming attack. Seizing the moment, he firmly grasped her hair once more and delivered ano

    Tyson stood there in shock, his face filled with astonishment. He blurted out, "Pregnant? So soon?"Chloe just had an abortion a little while ago. Only a month or two months had passed since then, so how was she pregnant again? How was that possible?'Joseph could be forgiven as he had no clue, but how could Chloe not know how to cherish herself as a woman? After all, her health should come first no matter what.Frowning, Joseph asked, "What do you mean by 'so soon?’”"You don't know?" Tyson spewed, "How many months has it been?""Four," Joseph replied.Drawing upon his years of investigative experience, things started to make sense in Tyson's mind. It seemed that Chloe did go through with the abortion and instead told Joseph that the child in her womb was his.'My goodness… Young people nowadays are bold. They're full of lies.'"Do you know something?" Joseph's gaze fixed upon Tyson, his eyes sharp and penetrating. Though his expression remained devoid of emotion, his stare he

    Otto leaned slovenly against the reception desk, his cunning eyes narrowing as he locked his gaze on Chloe."Grubby paws? She should be happy that someone as handsome as me is willing to touch her," he remarked."I don't care if you're handsome or ugly. The only thing I see is your hands attempting to touch my employee, unsolicited," Chloe responded coldly, positioning herself protectively in front of the young receptionist.Otto shrugged nonchalantly. "Calm down. I came to discuss business with you.""I won't collaborate with someone like you. Leave, now," Chloe declared."Fine. I wanted to approach this diplomatically, but if you refuse to show me respect, I'll go straight to the point then," Otto said with a bold grin.A sense of foreboding washed over Chloe, causing her nerves to tighten.Otto placed a business agreement in front of her and chuckled arrogantly. "I've acquired the land you're currently standing on."Chloe quickly scanned through the agreement, her eyes widen

    Chloe chuckled self-deprecatingly. "I’m all right. Just getting by.""Do you have time for a meal?" Icarus asked.Setting her jaw, Chloe replied, "I'm sorry, I don't have time right now. Let's catch up next time. Joseph and I will treat you."A wave of disappointment washed across Icarus. "Are you still bothered by the fact that I lied to you before?""Not at all. It's all in the past. Now that I'm pregnant, it's not good for others to see me alone with a man," Chloe explained sincerely."Are you afraid Joseph will get jealous?" Icarus asked.Chloe smiled silently. She was not afraid of Joseph getting jealous. She simply did not want the trouble and could not be bothered to explain to him. After all, he would not believe her explanation anyway.Icarus did not press the matter and took a look at his watch. "You’re still on the clock, right?""Yeah. Why?""I have something to give you. I'll bring it over later," Icarus replied."You don't have to... You've already helped me tod

    Chloe was stunned for a moment. "Are you for real?"He playfully pinched her nose. "When have I ever lied to you?"Rolling her eyes, Chloe retorted, "Well, you've never lied, but you always made direct announcements or gave commands."Joseph was stumped. In the long thirty years of his life, he was always surrounded by studying and work and had grown accustomed to such direct interactions. Directness and efficiency were his way of dealing with people.Chloe looked up at him and asked, "What about Xavia's child?""Tyson wants a second child, but they can't conceive due to certain circumstances," Joseph explained.Understanding dawned upon Chloe. It would be acceptable for Tyson to adopt the child. It would protect the child from being mistreated and also avoid direct contact between Joseph and Xavia.Seeing her remain silent, Joseph cautiously embraced her. "Is this arrangement okay with you?""It's fine, and you're right. Xavia’s already six months pregnant. I can't ask her to

    Raising his eyebrows, Joseph's magnetic voice took on a chilling tone. "What are you trying to say?""Haha!" Otto laughed, his voice cold and grating to the ear. "Nothing much. It’s just a friendly reminder. Earlier today, I happened to overhear a man who went to see your wife saying, 'Let's prepare some new clothes for our child.' The word 'our' is quite interesting, isn't it?" Upon hearing this, Joseph hung up the phone without hesitation. He turned his gaze toward the trash bin at the company's entrance, and his face sank. After not hearing his footsteps for some time, Chloe paused and turned around, looking at him with a puzzled expression.The man stood bathed in the orange glow of the setting sun. His nose was high and prominent, his gaze held a deep intensity, and his thin lips were tightly pressed together. From a side view, he exuded an air of indifference and aloofness."What's the matter?" Chloe asked.Was throwing away the gift from Icarus not satisfying enough? Did h

    Chloe took a deep breath. ‘I’m so tired of hearing that name.’She handed the lunchbox to Lucas and forcefully kicked open the office door in frustration. Xavia let out a startled cry. She covered her face and hid behind Joseph while Megan looked Chloe up and down in disdain. "Why didn't you knock? You scared me.""Why should I knock when I'm looking for my husband? Are you doing something inappropriate that you don't want others to see?""How dare you! O-Of course, not…" Megan retorted, stealing a glance at Joseph. It went without saying that she secretly wished she could engage in some secretive affair with him. That way, her life would have changed entirely, just like Chloe's."Are you here to have lunch?" Joseph looked at Chloe lovingly.However, Chloe locked her gaze on Xavia behind him, her eyebrows furrowing slightly. "Why are you covering your face? It's not like you're a ghost that’s afraid of the light.""Xavia has suffered enough. Please choose your words carefully,"

    Chloe chuckled sarcastically. 'Afraid of offending the Sullivans? Trying to use reverse psychology, huh?' She crossed her arms and looked at Joseph threateningly. Joseph met her gaze and groaned inwardly. To be honest, he really wanted to take this opportunity to teach Noah a lesson, and it had little to do with Xavia. "I’ll call Noah over,” he said. Xavia's face lit up, tears shimmering in her eyes. "Thank you, Joe. You're so kind to me."Chloe scoffed. Her anger flared as she retorted, "If you find trouble with Noah today, don't expect to step foot in my room tonight."Joseph took Chloe's hand and pulled her aside. He looked at her helplessly and said, "I’m not helping Xavia. I just want you to see Noah's true colors." Since Xavia dared to confront Noah, it meant she was speaking the truth. It would be perfect if he could expose his true nature in front of Chloe right now. "Even if it was Noah, so what? He was just helping me to get revenge. And what about you? Are you help

    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
