Chapter 984 A Selfish Love

Author: Aurora Summers
Damage caused by hypnosis was irreversible, yet Noah still cruelly chose to hypnotize Chloe to get his way. He was just as ruthless as Cyrus, ignoring the safety of the one they loved. It was sickening!

Desmond fell silent.

Puzzled, Chloe asked, "What do you mean he tampered with my life?"

Joseph caressed her head and lied through his teeth. "You misheard me. I said he might hurt you since he has the heart to betray Exotic Star."

Chloe was doubtful. She could not tell if Joseph was telling the truth.

"Sir, you may meet with a few of the board members and listen to their side of the story when you're feeling better. You'll find out then if Gary really is that influential or if someone is helping him."

Desmond remained silent, looking extremely sullen. He gave off an oppressive feeling. Chloe decided to end the conversation as she knew that he could not accept Noah's betrayal at the moment. She promised to resolve this and told him to rest well and not worry.

    In an attempt to help Xavia, Megan said, "Mr. Kenneth, you can't do that. Everyone knows that Xavia's pregnant with your child. Don’t believe those bastards and break up with Xavia. You have to take care of her.”Megan had long realized that Xavia was insincere toward her, but having others curry favor with her when they heard that she was acquainted with the prince's fiancee was a great feeling. Her career was improving, and she no longer had to compete against inferior internet celebrities for lousy advertisement gigs. To protect her dignity, she had to side with Xavia."Are you calling my father a bastard?" Kenneth questioned Megan coldly.The frightened Megan shook her head and denied, "No, I was talking about Chloe!""She didn't mean that, Ken." Xavia tried to grab Kenneth's sleeve but he avoided her. Xavia said sorrowfully, "We can have an amniocentesis if you don't believe the child is yours. The results won’t lie."Kenneth repeated her words when he recalled something. "Th

    His words frightened Xavia and drove her mad. She frantically gripped his shirt and interrogated him desperately, "Not only do you want to give me up, but you also want to kill your child? You’re too cruel, Kenneth Gillingham!""Stop! You’re the one who caused this mess. If you had told me the truth from the beginning, Chloe and Joseph wouldn't have had the chance to expose your lies. You’ve disappointed me!" As Kenneth pushed her away, his last bit of compassion vanished. Every member of the palace knew that he had been fooled by this woman. But he deserved it, and he could blame no one. He would be a fool to believe her lies again after learning about the truth. If Xavia had been honest with him from the get-go, he might have been biased toward her. But now, he wondered if the person he loved was Xavia or just the persona she had created. Otherwise, how would a person's character change so much overnight? "I was forced to lie to you. I didn’t want to. Just try to understand my s

    "My God..."Everyone in the conference room held their breath in horror as they watched the scene. They felt that Chloe must have gone mad. It was clear they had to be careful not to infuriate her.Gary's fluffy hair was drenched, watering down his earlier superior look. He now looked awkward and hilarious. He wiped his face and realized that it was not a dream. All eyes turned on him as he stared at Chloe sinisterly and raised his arm to hit her.Chloe had been watching him and immediately retreated. She asked the obvious, "You want to hit me?"Yes, she was provoking him, but she would call the cops on him if he dared to hit her. She had never done this before and wondered if making a scene would work. Sometimes, one would gain more compassion by acting like the weak.Gary, who had never been fond of women, wanted to hit her even more after hearing her provocation. But upon recalling what Noah had told him, he stopped. The plan had only just started. Although he was currently the

    The girl paused and stared at Joseph’s hands. She bit her lip and asked, "But you're not wearing a wedding ring. Do you think I'm too young for you?"Joseph’s brows furrowed, his impatience evident. "Didn’t you hear me?""I..." Caught off guard by his stern tone, the girl came close to tears. "I made a bet with my classmates that I could get your number. They’ll tease me if I don’t get it.”Samuel looked around and spotted a few other schoolgirls peeking out from behind the trees. Eager to wrap this up, he told the girl, "Your bet is your problem. It's dangerous to ask strangers for their number. If you really want to keep your reputation intact, I can give you my friend's contact info."Her eyes lit up. "Really? Thank you!""But he won't accept your request," Samuel added, keen on not wasting any more time. His minutes were valuable.The girl’s smile vanished. "So you're just messing with me?""I'm being realistic. You and my friend here aren’t from the same world, and he's int

    “Yeah, let's find a place to talk. I have plans this afternoon." Samuel agreed.As he strode off, He looked eager to get things over with. What he truly wanted was to get the pair some private space. Sure, he loved making money, but his friend’s happiness was also a priority for him. Joseph had finally succeeded in holding Chloe's hand. Though he maintained a cool facade, he was surely buzzing with joy on the inside.It was now late August. The weather was milder, a welcome relief from the peak of summer. A gentle breeze blew at the hem of Chloe's skirt, showcasing her radiant skin. The sunlight rested upon her head like a divine crown. She looked as if she were lost in a daydream, untouchable and divine like a goddess.Joseph's gaze lingered on her, his heartbeat momentarily slowing. He had always known she was beautiful, but now, he felt that every aspect of her fascinated him. At times, he even felt too old for her.Realizing he was staring, Chloe touched her face. "What are you

    "All right then. Let's work together to regain Exotic Star’s shares," Joseph declared.He could just snap his fingers and take over the company, but he recognized that Chloe was more than just a pretty face. She was valuable in her own right, and he wanted to give her the space to prove her worth.Samuel twiddled a pen between his fingers, suddenly having an idea. He turned to Chloe and suggested, "If Noah is the one backing Gary, why not just reach out to him directly?"Chloe let out a weary sigh. "If it were that easy, we would've done it by now.""What do you mean?""Noah’s gone missing."From the moment Desmond had ended up in the hospital, Noah's phone had been out of service. The security footage at the manor had also been tampered with. All that could be seen was him running out of the hall. The rest of the footage was just static. Noah knew the ins and outs of the Sullivan manor well and had easily wiped out the proof, leaving them with nothing.Joseph's gaze turned seri

    As they exited the cafe, they ran into Vince and Bethany. The pair were joking around and laughing together, forming a picture of happiness. Vince was holding a cup of smoothie. Chloe was not familiar with him, but with his towering frame, she did not pin him as a smoothie enthusiast. She figured the drink was more likely Bethany's. The two of them looked very much like a couple."There you are, sir. We were just about to look for you," Vince said, smiling broadly, oblivious to the presence of the stunning Zoelle.Joseph looked indifferent. "What is it?""Nothing much." Bethany stepped forward, her eyes twinkling as she smiled. "I've just been curious about your company, Fairlight. I haven't had any contact with the outside world for years. The company you’ve built is remarkable. You're amazing, Joe.""There's not much to see there. You should focus on your recovery," Joseph advised."I feel great, actually. I’ve been feeling cooped up in Imperium and am itching to see the world."

    “She doesn't," Joseph responded, his expression unchanged."She absolutely does," Zoelle insisted."I think so too," Chloe chimed in."See? I’m not making it up. It's obvious from just a glance," Zoelle exclaimed, slapping her thigh as if she had found a kindred spirit."Something was different about her gaze as she looked at Joseph," Chloe concurred,Bethany’s gaze had seemed innocent, but it hid a deep meaning."Whatever. I don't like her anyway," Joseph declared.Women often had a knack for such things. Though Bethany had not done anything to purposely rub them the wrong way, there was something unsettling about her demeanor. She came off as a seemingly innocent girl hiding a secret, and it was uncommon for people to address Joseph as Joe.Chloe kept her thoughts to herself, but she agreed with Zoelle's assumptions. She also had an unexplained aversion to the girl."Did she do something to upset you two?" Joseph asked in puzzlement. After all, they had only exchanged brief

    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
