Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 573 Rotten Scumbag

After dealing with Natalie in the afternoon, Noah went to the swimming pool too. That little brat sure knew how to keep busy.

Chloe grabbed the car keys and stepped outside, only to find Joseph glaring at her coldly. Feeling puzzled, she asked, "What's the matter?"

"Those candies on the table. Who gave them to you?"

"Noah."

"Don't accept anything from him. He has ulterior motives."

"Fine, then don't keep Xavia's child." With the matter laid out, Chloe's indifference was evident in her words. She would say whatever pleased her, regardless of the consequences.

"Come on," Joseph said, abruptly ending the conversation out of guilt.

Chloe muttered under her breath, expressing her discontent, "Rotten scumbag."

Joseph had no retort and reluctantly fell into silence.

Chloe remained fully focused and composed as she drove. When someone overtook her, she handled the situation calmly. Joseph felt relieved. His dumbo was not the typical female driver.

Suddenly, the car in front came to an abrupt stop.

"Brake!" Joseph yelled.

Chloe remained calm and responded, "Oh."

In the next moment, Joseph felt his upper body lurch forward. If it were not for the seatbelt, his head would have collided with the windshield. Meanwhile, Chloe firmly gripped the steering wheel with both hands and playfully winked at him.

"How was that? My driving has improved quite a bit, huh?"

"I suppose…"

Joseph could not bring himself to dampen her spirits, and Chloe wore a triumphant expression that said “I knew it.”

It took them an hour to reach the hospital from the Johnson villa. Upon arrival, Joseph fought down the churning sensation in his stomach and accompanied Chloe inside. If he had to sit in her car for another ten minutes, he would definitely vomit his guts out. He quickly texted Lucas to come and drive the car later. He was determined to never let Chloe get behind the wheel again.

After getting an X-ray and consulting with the doctor, Chloe was given a clean bill of health just like her previous visit. The doctor assured her and Joseph that everything was fine. As long as there were no complications, Chloe could relax and focus on having a good pregnancy.

"Does she need to take any medication to stabilize the pregnancy?" Joseph asked in a gentle and polite manner, visibly happy. The doctor recognized Joseph and understood his temperament very well. Surprised by this treatment, the doctor stumbled over his words, "Th-That’s not necessary. Just make sure to come regularly for check-ups."

"Thank you." Joseph expressed his gratitude and supported Chloe as they walked out.

Chloe was somewhat speechless. "My belly isn’t that big right now. I can walk on my own."

"No, the floor’s slippery. What if you fall? Remember to inform me about your next check-up. I'll come with you."

"Joe..."

Xavia, who had silently followed the couple and eavesdropped on their conversation, could not help but interject. Being six months pregnant herself, Joseph had never accompanied her for a single check-up, yet he was now willingly accompanying Chloe the moment he found out she was pregnant.

The contrast between being loved and being disregarded was so striking.

Joseph turned to look at her, instinctively furrowing his brows, "What are you doing here?"

"The doctor had already left when you dropped me off at the hospital yesterday, so I had to come back today..."

Xavia’s deliberate mention of Joseph taking her to the hospital caught Chloe's attention. She glanced at the man beside her, thinking, ‘So, he accompanies different women for their check-ups day in and day out. No wonder the doctor recognized him.’Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
