Chapter 555 Xavia Wants to Share Good News With Joseph

Lucas was speechless as Chloe had a point.

“All right. Don’t worry about us,” she said lightly before walking into the office with the

folder.

Joseph was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window when she entered. He turned to look at her and said, “Right on time.”

Feigning composure, she handed him the folder. “Go ahead. Open it and take a look.”

Joseph’s jaw clenched tightly as he pulled out the report. In just one glance, he knew the answer. His eyebrows furrowed deeply, and then he relaxed them. ‘Well, it’s time to play by

ear.’

Beside him, Chloe tiptoed to catch a glimpse of the report’s contents. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

As if a string in her mind suddenly snapped, Chloe’s heart was gripped with excruciating pain, rendering her incapable of rational thought. Although she had mentally prepared herself for this, the stark reality laid out before her was still hard to swallow.

Her footsteps became unsteady and she tottered. The composure she had maintained up till now shattered into pieces.

Joseph swiftly reached out to support her. “Chloe…”

“Don’t touch me.” Chloe fought to maintain her composure. “Give me the report. I want to read it all.”

Joseph understood her pain and tried to console her. “Don’t read it. There’s nothing worth seeing. Are you hungry? Let me take you out for a meal.”

“Give it to me.” Her voice trembled but held firm determination.

Seeing Chloe like this, Joseph opened his mouth but could not utter a word. Suddenly, everything was different from what he had imagined. He thought he had everything under control, but in reality, it seemed like he did not. He could not describe this feeling. He felt lost. and everything was spinning out of control. He disliked this feeling immensely.

Suddenly, he remembered the words Harold had told him.

‘Chloe isn’t being magnanimous. She compromises because she loves you.’

“Give it to me!” Chloe repeated, her eyes bloodshot.

Joseph met her gaze, feeling a sharp pang in his heart. In the end, he handed over the report in

his hand.

Chloe took the report. Seemingly falling into a trance, she meticulously read every word, over and over again. Her eyes became blurry from reading, but she could not find any loopholes. Her fingers loosened, and the report slipped from her hand, scattering all over the floor.

Joseph reached out to hold Chloe’s hand but she pushed him away. His face turned grim. “If you’re unhappy, you can express it. Don’t throw a tantrum.”

Chloe looked up at him, her gaze filled with disbelief. At that moment, she could not distinguish who was right and who was wrong.

‘Am I throwing a tantrum? Should I never have agreed to this in the first place? Now that I have, should I not get upset and just accept everything?’

“Joe!”

Someone with a lively and cheerful voice suddenly burst in. Xavia stood at the door, observing the obvious tension in the room. Despite her inner delight, she maintained a composed demeanor and hesitated before saying, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were here, Ms. Chloe.”

Chloe was unhappy at that moment and shot Xavia an unfriendly look. She retorted. sarcastically, “Don’t people usually knock before entering a room? Or do you knock when I’m not here and act like this when I am?”

“I wasn’t… I was just so happy and wanted to share the good news with Joe,” Xavia explained.

Joseph already knew what she meant by “good news,” and his expression turned dark. “I already know. Go home and take care of yourself and the baby.”
