Chapter 3 I Need a Marriage Partner

Author: Aurora Summers
Chloe suspected that was hallucinating and instinctively rubbed her ears before directing her gaze toward the man once again.

Yet, his countenance remained unchanged as he calmly observed her.

With a sparkle in her eyes, Chloe's determination grew stronger. "To be frank, I'm not interested in sex."

After witnessing what she had seen earlier in the day, she developed some emotional scars when it came to that aspect.

The man frowned slightly as he scrutinized her face with a cold stare. Nonetheless, Chloe stood tall, unflinching under his gaze. He then withdrew his gaze and commanded coldly, "Get in the car."

Once in the car, Chloe could not contain her excitement and messaged Emily.

[Chloe: Em, don't wait for me. I'm on my way with Jake's uncle to meet his parents!]

[Emily: You never fail to surprise me, Coco. Your relationship is moving faster than a rocket!]

In the high-end VIP ward of the hospital, Harold Whitman lay on the bed and excitedly looked Chloe up and down.

"May I ask who this young lady is?" he inquired.

Before the man could say anything else, Chloe confidently stepped forward and answered with a smile, "Grandpa, I'm your grandson's girlfriend. I was in such a rush to get here that I forgot to bring a gift. I hope you’ll forgive me."

Harold sat up, his voice trembling with emotion as he asked again, "Are you really his girlfriend? Why have I never heard him mention you before?"

"Well, we just confirmed our relationship not long ago, and I had to travel around due to my busy work schedule so I haven't found a suitable opportunity to come to meet you," Chloe replied smoothly, her sweet and crisp voice pleasant to the ears.

"We were having dinner earlier when we heard that you were sick so we decided to come and pay you a visit," she added.

Chloe was dressed in a Chanel-style suit. She had finely chiseled features and an innocent, delicate face that made her seem approachable. Her feet were clad in high heels, which exposed her snow-white, slender legs. She appeared to be the very picture of a wealthy family's daughter.

"Wonderful! This little brat has finally come around!" Harold exclaimed, clearly pleased with Chloe. He could not stop smiling and looked nothing like someone with a heart condition. He even warmly invited her to stay for a late-night snack.

It was almost midnight by the time they left the ward.

The man looked at his watch and asked, his voice clear and pleasant, "Where do you stay?"

Chloe hesitated, not sure whether she should go home or not. Ava knew she had returned to the country, yet her father had not bothered to call her. Chloe felt a pang of loneliness, but she had nowhere else to go so she answered softly, "Laguna Villas, thank you."

The man noticed the conflicted look on Chloe's face and raised his eyebrows.

With few cars on the road that night, they quickly arrived. As she was about to exit the car, the man gave Chloe a black business card with gold trimming.

"I’m in need of a spouse. Besides love, you can name any other condition you desire," he said.

Chloe looked up at him in shock, but he maintained his cold and calm demeanor as if he was conducting business. After a few seconds of silence, she took the card and asked, "Can I have some time to think about it?"

"Of course," the man agreed briskly, "I’d like to have a response by tomorrow morning as I only have an hour available in the afternoon. If everything goes well, we can go straight to City Hall."

Chloe nodded slightly and watched him leave. She then tucked the card into her bag and entered the villa.

She found Benjamin sitting on the sofa in the living room and was pleasantly surprised to see him. "Dad, were you waiting for me?"

Benjamin looked up at her and struggled to contain his displeasure. He ordered, "Go upstairs and apologize to your sister."

Chloe froze in her tracks. "Dad, don’t you understand what happened?"

"What else is there to understand? Jake and your sister are getting engaged. How dare you try to get in between them."

"Get in between them?" she asked, her voice faltering. "Don't you know that Jake and I have been together since high…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Ava and her mother came downstairs.

  • Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love   Chapter 1132 Noah Sullivan

    After Chloe calmed herself, she realized that the place she was in resembled the villa she lived in while overseas five years ago. However, upon closer inspection, the exterior scenery was different. She realized something and froze."Did you build a villa identical to the one I stayed in five years ago?" she asked.Noah was busy bandaging himself. Upon hearing her question, he replied, "Yeah, doesn't it look almost identical?"Chloe's gaze swept over every item in the room, and she admitted that she was touched. She turned back to Noah and looked at him gently as if she had returned to the time when she simply treated him as a little brother."How did you convince Tiffany to cooperate with you?"Tiffany had made her move while Noah distracted Desmond."I just told her about it, and she agreed."Chloe asked, "Do you think you’re treating her fairly?"Noah said flatly, "I’ll compensate her."Compensate? How? Chloe thought that youth was the most precious thing in the world, but

  • Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love   Chapter 1131 You Bastard! Where Did You Take Chloe?!

    In the Whitman family home, Joseph went to deal with a bunch of urgent company matters after putting Jasper to sleep. By the time he finished, it was already past three in the morning. He contemplated calling Chloe to ask about Noah's situation, but thinking it might disrupt her sleep, he abandoned the idea.When Joseph woke up the next day, it was already half past six. He recalled Chloe mentioning that Exotic Star had a new product launching today and that she would have to wake up early. He reached for his phone on the table, intending to call her.However, his hand slipped and the phone fell to the floor. The loud thud caused his heart to tremble. He stared at the shattered phone screen as he got a bad feeling. He grabbed his spare phone and quickly dialed Chloe's number. After ringing for some time, a cold, mechanical voice informed him that there was no one available to answer at the moment. Without hesitation, he immediately headed to the Sullivan Manor. When Joseph got ther

    “Yes, Grandpa, and I hope you won't stop me when the time comes," Noah said. "You're not discussing this with me. You're just informing me!" Desmond said exasperatedly. "I'm sorry, Grandpa.”Desmond hemmed and hawed for a long while, at a loss for words. He seemed to age ten years as he stared into the distance through the window. After a while, he said, "I've already had someone contact doctors abroad regarding your condition, so don't worry. All you have to do now is just focus on recovering. Don't give up so soon."Sensing Desmond's determination, Noah's eyes filled with tears. He too wished to spend a few more years with his grandfather.When they arrived at the Sullivan manor, the foreign doctors had replied. Upon learning that the renowned healer, Z, had treated Noah but only achieved limited success, they decided not to intervene.Noah was not discouraged by this. He comforted Desmond and said, "Grandpa, I would like to go abroad for a few days. It's been a long time sin

    Half an hour later, Desmond and Noah walked out of the ward together.Desmond said, "The doctor told you to stay in the hospital for a few more days, so why don't you just listen? If something happens to you again, they can treat you immediately."Noah smiled warmly and said, "It's okay. The medical equipment at home is sufficient."Desmond sighed. It would be good if Noah stayed at home as well. At least there would be more pairs of eyes on him.Desmond instructed the driver to come to the hospital’s basement car park. When he hung up the phone, he looked around the corridor and wondered, "Wasn't Chloe just sitting here? Where is she?"Noah did not say anything and just lowered his head."And where's Tiffany too? Call her. We need to go home," Desmond said as he took his phone out to call Chloe.However, Chloe did not answer his call. Noah did not call Tiffany. Instead, he said, "Her brother had something to discuss with her, so he came by and brought her home. Maybe Chloe ha

  • Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love   Chapter 1128 Please Don’t Blame Me, I Have No Choice

    Chloe looked at Tiffany and said sarcastically, "Not everyone is willing to contribute their entire life knowing that the other person doesn't like them."Tiffany had a heart problem. She might die at any moment, yet she chose to live around someone who did not love her back. Chloe often marveled at the greatness of love, but she would never possess such a sacrificial spirit.Tiffany laughed coldly. "It’s because I have compassion and you don't. When Xavia died before your eyes, you just coldly stared at her body."Chloe raised her head sharply, glared at Tiffany, and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Xavia took my child, stole my man, and wrecked my marriage! She nearly got me killed several times! If she hadn’t died, it might have been me! I should've celebrated her death with fireworks! None of you know what I've been through, so stop pointing fingers at me!"At first, she had felt responsible for Xavia's death, but she had since come to her senses. Xavia's death had nothing to

  • Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love   Chapter 1127 For the Remainder of Your Life

    Desmond was taken aback that he even forgot his cane and almost tripped on the carpet. He quickly got back up and headed for the second floor. The butler immediately called for an ambulance while the other housekeepers guided the panicked guests away.Chloe furrowed her brows, following Desmond into Noah's bedroom. The curtains were drawn tightly, blocking out all light. But just standing at the door, one could detect the strong scent of rust from inside.A helper flipped a switch, and the room was flooded with light. The wooden furniture was neatly arranged while neatly folded clothes sat on the sofa.Chloe looked around but did not see Noah. She then looked toward the bathroom and her face sank.Tiffany pointed to the bathroom and said, "He's in there."Desmond trembled as he pushed open the bathroom door. Inside was a mess, with red stains covering the floor. Noah was in the bathtub, his wet clothes clinging to his body. His arms hung limply over the tub's edge, and his head sl
