Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 584 He’ll Protect Her Forever and Ever

Joseph’s lips pressed together tightly in silent agreement with Chloe.

Megan was speechless. "Xavia, you were the one injured, so why are you scared?"

Before they came here, they had agreed that one of them would play the good cop while another would play the bad cop. But now, Xavia had sabotaged their plan at the critical moment. If it were not for her desire to seek revenge on Noah for not choosing her as the ambassador, she would not have come here with Xavia.

Xavia ignored Megan. She deeply bowed to Noah, her voice filled with remorse as she said, "I'm sorry. I mistook you for someone else and caused trouble for you and Joe." NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Noah graciously accepted her apology. "It's fine. Do you need anything else?"

"No." Xavia shook her head anxiously, her distress palpable.

A faint smile played on Noah's lips as he glanced at Joseph. "It's a shame, Mr. Joseph. It seems you won't be able to seek justice for Ms. Xavia this time."

"Are you sure you mistook him for someone else?" Joseph squinted, his tone tinged with suspicion.

"I'm sure. I'm really sorry. This is all on me. I shouldn't have jumped the gun," Xavia said as tears began to well up in her eyes.

Joseph pointed at Eustace, his gaze deep and inscrutable. "Then what about him? Don't you know him?"

The sudden shift in the conversation left Xavia breathless and caused her scalp to tingle with anxiety. Noah raised an eyebrow playfully.

'Oh ho, did he finally realize something after my hint?'

Although Chloe was unaware of what had transpired, she could sense that something was amiss.

In an instant, all eyes turned to Eustace. With a height of approximately 1.78 meters and distinguished features, he was considered above average among a crowd.

Xavia could sense the intensity of Joseph's gaze upon her, causing her to struggle for breath. Her nails dug into her flesh as she forced herself to stay calm. "I don't."

Joseph remained silent. He turned his gaze to Eustace and asked, "And what about you? Do you know Xavia?"

Joseph’s question caught Eustace off guard. He did not know how to respond and instinctively looked toward Noah.

With an innocent smile on his face, Noah replied, "How could you not know her? You do, don’t you?"

A flicker of astonishment crossed Eustace's eyes, but he soon came around to his senses and said, "Yes, I know her."

Xavia's pupils dilated, and her heart sank. She anticipated what was going to happen next and desperately tried to explain, "Joe, listen to me. I..."

However, the moment the words left her mouth, her nervousness got the better of her. She suddenly blacked out and collapsed in front of everyone.

Megan hurriedly went to support her, but she was at a loss for what to do. "What happened to her?"

Joseph frowned and ordered Lucas, "Call an ambulance."

"So you two know each other?" Chloe stared at Eustace.

"Yeah, he knows her," Noah answered on Eustace’s behalf before continuing calmly, "She’s a renowned violinist. Who wouldn't know her?"

Chloe's eyelashes trembled, sensing that he might be lying.

The ambulance arrived and took Xavia away. Lucas volunteered to accompany her to the hospital for further examination. Joseph had a challenging day ahead of him tomorrow, so he needed to conserve his energy.

Joseph nodded. "I'll double your bonus for this month.”

Lucas beamed. "Thank you, sir."

Noah thought of something and asked, "Tomorrow is the launch of the Whitman Group's new project, correct?"

"Yes," Joseph replied indifferently.

"Well, congratulations."

Since his job was done here, Noah prepared to leave. Before he stepped out of the office, he glanced at Chloe deeply.

'Just a little longer, Coco…'

In a few more months, he would be able to bring her back to the Sullivans. She did not have to stay by Joseph's side and suffer. Once she was back with the Sullivans, she would be loved by everyone, and he would protect her forever and ever.

After Noah left, Joseph called someone and instructed, "Help me to look into Noah's assistant."

"Sure, Mr. Joseph."

As soon as he hung up the phone, Chloe went up to him. "Do you think that Xavia was acting weirdly too?"

"Yes," Joseph replied.

Xavia was a person who was very capable of controlling her emotions, but as soon as Eustace came in today, she appeared very flustered.

A surge of relief washed over Chloe when she found out that Joseph felt the same way.

"Would you like to go to the Whitman Group's auction tomorrow?" Joseph asked gently as he held her in his arms.

"Sure, I'll go with you."

"But Otto and Cyrus might be there too."

"Cyrus is the one who imprisoned your mother?"

Joseph's jaw tightened. "Yes."

"Then that's all the more reason for me to go then. I want to see with my own eyes what kind of man he is to be so heartless."

The next day, the Whitman Group's auction was held at the convention and exhibition hall in the center of Docwood, and all the dignitaries in the business world were in attendance.
