Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 692 No Wonder He Was Feeling Inexplicably Hot

Chloe took the blueprints and examined them carefully. After a moment, she calmly returned them to Joseph. "Even if Noah knew all of this, I wouldn't care."

She realized that if Noah had intended to harm her, she could have easily become a victim. In fact, he not only saved her but also helped uncover her familial roots and brought her back to the Sullivan family. The Sullivans possessed immense wealth, and with Noah being involved with them since childhood, it was natural for people to suspect him of having ulterior motives. But Chloe felt in her heart that Noah had no hidden agenda. She felt that he genuinely cared for her and treated her with kindness.

Joseph noticed her high regard for this man, and his expression darkened. "Noah is cunning. Sooner or later, he’ll deceive you and leave you nothing. You'll regret not believing me."

"Well, I believed you once, and we all know how that turned out." Chloe smiled brilliantly, but her eyes held mockery. "Mr. Joseph, handle the car accident properly. If I don't get a satisfactory result, I won't hesitate to make a scene over it."

With that, she emptied the contents of her wine glass and left the scene.

Joseph stormed toward Xavia’s apartment, impatiently kicking the door open to vent his anger.

Xavia was sitting at the dining table, preparing children's snacks. When she saw him, a hint of panic flashed through her eyes. "Joe, why are you here—-"

"Apologize to Chloe," he cut her off, leaving no room for refusal.

Xavia forced an awkward smile. "For what?"

Joseph's patience wore thin. "You used Megan's car to track Chloe, then attempted to cause an accident and harm her. Do I need to spell it out for you?"

To be honest, Joseph was skeptical when he first heard the news. He knew Xavia was jealous of Chloe, but he did not believe she would be so bold to take such extreme actions. Megan was currently an artist rising in popularity, and she cared deeply about her reputation. Despite their friendship, it seemed unlikely that she would go to such lengths.

"It wasn't me. I was home all afternoon," Xavia denied, putting on a fake concerned expression. "Maybe Megan accidentally hit Chloe. Don't be angry. Let's call her and confirm it, okay?"

"Is calling necessary? You probably already coordinated your story in advance. Are you sure you want to keep trying to deceive me?" Joseph’s brow furrowed and he felt deeply disappointed. He suddenly understood why Jasper never liked his mother.

Xavia was left speechless. She lowered her eyes, and a few tears dropped to the ground. "If you believe it's me, I have nothing more to say. Let me change my clothes and I'll go with you."

As he silently watched her head to the bedroom, a cold light grew in his eyes.

At the Sullivan manor, Chloe had just taken a shower. She emerged with an airy, strapless, mini- dress. Water droplets adorned her face, accentuating her fair and beautiful complexion. The floor heating provided ample warmth, and aside from the few house helpers who occasionally came up to clean, nobody came up here. Not even Noah or Desmond. This entire floor was her private space, so she dressed as she pleased.

Joseph suddenly appeared at the top of the stairs. "What are you wearing?” His gaze was dark and wolf-like as it fixed on her.

Chloe was startled and then blushed. "Who let you in?"

"I'm asking, what are you wearing? Aren't you afraid of freezing in this cold weather?" Joseph's tone was cold and tinged with a hint of jealousy. Had she seduced Noah and won him over with this method? This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Dude, there's underfloor heating here. It’s really warm. Besides, it's none of your business what I wear."

Joseph paused and tugged at his collar in annoyance. No wonder he was feeling inexplicably hot.
