Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 563 She’s Depressed

"I’ll let her go, but you have to tell me how you learned about this."

Chloe had figured it out after three days of reflection.

"Noah told me." Harold said, "I’d never have known how out of line you’ve been acting if he hadn’t told me."

‘Joseph has locked Chloe up for a few days, but what about next time? Will he hold her captive indefinitely?’ Harold knew he could not let Joseph have his way.

Anger rose in Joseph's eyes. "What did he say?"

He had confiscated Chloe's phone, so how did Noah contact her? He had even informed Harold of what was happening.

"Don't find fault with him. He just mentioned it in passing."

"What else did he say?"

"The Walkers wish to ally with the Sullivans through a marriage. The youngsters have met each other once. I watched Naty grow up, so Noah was asking me about some of her preferences."

Harold sighed. ‘Look at how patient and serious Noah is in trying to gain Naty’s heart. In contrast, Joseph has a horrible temper. What an eyesore!’

Joseph soon understood Noah's scheme. Noah had complained about Joseph while asking Harold about Natalie's preferences. This aligned with his character and image.

For the first time, Joseph understood how women felt about women who liked to scheme. He swiftly ended his call with Harold and called Natalie. Although Natalie had stopped pursuing Joseph, she

still saw him as a handsome and excellent man. Since he was asking for her, she immediately got out of bed and instructed her driver to take her to Fairlight.

Natalie walked into the office with Lucas. She asked happily, "What can I do for you, Joe?"

"Have you been in touch with Noah recently?" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"Yes, we met once. He told me that he doesn't want to date, so we didn't meet again."

Natalie was a little naive and answered without any hesitation.

"What’s your impression of him?"

"Hmm... He's fine. I don't find him annoying. I’m willing to give it a chance."

Some women might not fall in love with handsome men, but they would never reject a gentle and pure man.

Joseph smirked. "Then you should go ahead and give it a try."

"Hmm?" Natalie became baffled. "But Noah doesn't want to date, so how could I possibly do that?"

"Noah admires you, but he's young and it's his first time getting to know a woman. He doesn't know the right words to say.”

"Really?” Natalie appeared suspicious and baffled. "But how did you know this, Joe?”

Joseph breathed out a ring of smoke. His attractive face appeared unfathomable. "He called my grandpa to ask about your preferences. I was even instructed to tell you that he wants to have lunch with you tomorrow."

Natalie was stunned before she blushed. "Oh, my. Why is he so shy? I'm not a fierce woman."

"Meet him at The Forest Moment tomorrow at noon."

"Okay, got it." Natalie waved at Joseph shyly. "I’m going home now. Help me pass on the message to him."

Joseph nodded and watched her leave.

"Lucas."

"Yes, Mr. Joseph?"

"Tell Desmond that Natalie agreed to Noah's lunch invitation. Tell Noah to meet her at The Forest Moment at noon tomorrow."

Lucas nodded and went to handle the matter.

Joseph worked for a little while more before driving home at half past nine. When the helper saw him come home, she put down her work and said to him worriedly, "Sir, Ms. Chloe hasn’t been eating much these two days. She didn't even make a scene and asked to be let out. I'm afraid that she might be depressed."

Joseph sneered. 'Depressed?'
