Chapter 191 Sincerity

Joseph felt a small lump rise in his throat as he faced her passionate and sincere gaze. Uncomfortably, he averted his gaze and replied, "You're overthinking it.""No, you do have feelings for me," Chloe said. Although she was talking to him, it gave people a feeling that she was talking to herself. "Why don't you just admit it? Love should be boldly expressed!"Before he could respond, she pressed on, "I also have a good impression of you!"She was not naive. She had noticed the changes in him. It was just that she had never considered it from that angle.At this moment, his reaction confirmed her suspicions. Joseph's face sank, his long legs crossed lazily, and his cold gaze bore into Chloe. "Just a good impression?"'Isn't she supposed to be so deeply in love with me that she can't imagine her life without me?'Chloe lightly touched her nose, casting her eyes downward to conceal the fleeting sense of guilt. From a side glance, she looked like a wounded little white rabbit. "Of

Chapter 192 Help, I’m So Scared

"Ellie, that was way out of line," a colleague said."I was just joking. Don't take it so seriously," Ellie said."Seriously, who jokes like that?"Chloe held onto her colleague's arm, shaking her head. "Don't worry about it. Let her say what she wants. We'll just ignore her," she said.After all, Ellie did speak the truth, and there was no way to argue against it.Ellie glanced at Chloe and walked away.The rest of Chloe’s day was a hectic one. She spent the morning organizing business data and conducting analysis in preparation for the afternoon meeting. She remained occupied until the end of the meeting.Afterward, Ellie approached with an air of authority and instructed, "Prepare the implementation project strategy for me by tomorrow. Make sure to include the cost, timeline, and projected results."Chloe rubbed her stiff neck and questioned, "Aren't these tasks supposed to be your responsibility? If I handle them for you, what will you be doing?"'Standing around and looki

Chapter 193 I Want to See Your Business Empire

Below Fairlight, a car was parked by the side of the road. Inside, Joseph furrowed his brow, staring at the missed call displayed on his phone screen before deciding to return the call."Hello, the number you dialed is currently unreachable..."Whenever Chloe's phone was switched off, it never boded well, even though today she was in the office."Stay here. I'm going up," he informed Lucas. He then opened the car door and stepped out.Lucas opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but his gaze caught sight of an elegant figure. "Oh no, it’s her. Didn't this woman say she wouldn't bother Mr. Joseph anymore? Why is she here again?"Thoughts swirled in his mind as he discreetly observed Xavia from the car. As if everything had been meticulously orchestrated, she coincidentally encountered Joseph at the zebra crossing. She was wearing a delicate, pink V-neck dress that accentuated her slender waist and revealed her perfectly shaped legs. With each gentle gust of the evening breeze,

Chapter 194 I Helped Pay 28 Million in Legal Fees

"Let's talk about it tomorrow. I'm tired and just want to go home and rest," Chloe said."Sure," he replied."But I thought you left. Why did you come back?" she asked while they waited for the elevator.Raising an eyebrow, Joseph responded, "Who told you I left?""So you never left? You've been in the office this whole time?""I was busy for a while, and by the time I finished, it was almost ten o'clock," he explained.In other words, he had been waiting for her.Chloe smiled mischievously, her eyes sparkling, "I see..."'He just refuses to admit that he was waiting for me!'Inside the elevator, Joseph slovenly leaned against the wall, his waist narrow and shoulders broad. He cast a cold glance at her and scoffed indifferently.Enchanted by his charm, Chloe stared at him blankly for a couple of seconds. Honestly, she had suspected that Joseph was not Jake's uncle when she first met him at the bar. After all, he was too good-looking to be his uncle. Though doubts had arisen,

Chapter 195 The Big Shot in the Entertainment Industry

Chloe's face froze, overwhelmed by a bitter and melancholic sensation that consumed her heart. Indeed, they were merely bound by a contractual relationship. Even though there had been fleeting moments of sweetness that morning, their relationship remained imbalanced."Fine, my mistake. I won't say anything," she admitted weakly.However, Joseph found no satisfaction in her meek apology. Instead, it only added to his mounting frustration.Lucas dared not intrude on the tense atmosphere and continued driving until they reached the villa.Chloe was the first to step out of the car and enter the yard. She went to take Toto for a stroll. Initially, Toto was overjoyed to see them return home, but now sensing the tension between the two, its ears drooped timidly and its dark eyes filled with unease.Joseph furrowed his brow and uttered, "Don't vent your frustrations on the dog."Wearing a fake smile, Chloe replied, "Is this smile satisfactory for serving your beloved dog?"Joseph respo

Chapter 196 Only an Idiot Wouldn’t Take the Chance

A man in his forties stepped out of the car, his square face exuding an air of dignity. He was dressed modestly, but around his neck sat a precious Blue Tiger’s Eye necklace.Ava recognized the man before her, and her whole being surged with excitement. He was the tycoon who controlled the entertainment industry, having established multiple film and television companies. Many of today's hottest celebrities were nurtured under his company's guidance.However, he seldom appeared in public. Why would such a prominent figure visit such an obscure place?As Calvin laid eyes on Ava for the first time, a hint of dissatisfaction flickered across his face. Involuntarily, he compared her to his daughter, lamenting that she had not inherited Luciana's favorable genes. Despite his initial disappointment, Calvin's expression softened considerably as he thought about the fact that this girl shared Luciana's blood."What’s your name?" he asked gently, his gaze filled with warmth."Mr. Calvin, I'

Chapter 197 The Glorious View

She would rather endure Joseph's scolding than let Ellie take advantage of her efforts.With determined steps, Chloe walked toward the elevator without looking back. Ellie hurriedly followed after her, looking as if she was trying to stop Chloe. However, she came to a halt in front of the elevator, observing as it came to a stop on a higher floor without emitting even a single sound. Witnessing this, she returned to the marketing department with a smug sense of satisfaction.A few colleagues approached her with worried expressions and asked, "Ellie, did Chloe really go to see Mr. Joseph?"Sighing, she replied, "Well, yes. I did try to stop her. I even told her that we could split the bonus in half, but she didn't care. She insisted on having the full 20 thousand.""Wow… She's so greedy…"*Standing at the entrance of Joseph's office, Chloe confidently raised her hand and lightly knocked on the door. Without waiting for a response, she took a step forward and entered the room.Se

Chapter 198 Do You Love Money or Me?

Chloe glanced at Lucas awkwardly. "It's okay. I'll just stand."They were at the office right now, and it was necessary to maintain proper decorum, especially with others present.Joseph's gaze sharply swept across the room, and Lucas immediately grasped the signal. "I’ll be leaving now," he said.Chloe was speechless. 'Oh well, guess I'll just go ahead and sit then. It's not like it's the first time anyway. I'll consider it a free cushion.'As she settled into Joseph's lap and adjusted her position, a thought crossed her mind. She turned back to Joseph and remarked, "Make sure not your belt doesn’t poke me this time."A hint of crimson graced Joseph's handsome face as he retorted in a low voice, "Shut up."Chloe pursed her lips. She had noticed that whenever Joseph could not come up with a response, he resorted to telling her to shut up.He lightly clicked his mouse, and the surveillance footage from outside the marketing department the previous night appeared on the screen.A

Chapter 199 Once the Novelty Wears Off, She’ll Lose

"Hmm? What is it?""Don't allow Xavia to come between you and Mr. Joseph. Their chapter is closed, and you’re the one who matters to him now. When you two had an argument yesterday, he was in a sour mood all morning. It wasn’t until you arrived that he seemed to brighten up a bit."Lucas had been working anxiously the whole morning as he was afraid of enraging Joseph.Chloe looked at Lucas, taking in his features. With his delicate facial structure and slightly tanned skin, he exuded a spirited demeanor. Aware of his good intentions, she calmly shook her head. "You know that our marriage is fake, right? The contract will expire. We have no relationship beyond that.""Don't you want to fight for it?" Lucas asked."What do I have to fight with?" Chloe retorted."Mr. Joseph has shown interest in you. You have a chance," Lucas encouraged.Chloe scoffed mockingly. "He has never explicitly expressed any romantic feelings toward me. I've tried, but the outcome was far from satisfactory

Chapter 200 How Bold of Him to Pursue Joseph’s Woman

"Do you know her?" Ellie asked."Chloe used to work at Baxon, and I had always desired a taste of her," Maurice said.This caused Ellie to pause in surprise. She had never expected Chloe to have worked for Baxon, and it seemed to her that Maurice held a strong interest in her. "Find a way to arrange a meeting with her quickly. I don't care what you do, but I need a few photos as evidence," she said.Maurice replied, "Arranging a meeting with Chloe won't be easy. She’s wary of me.""You want me to help you?" Ellie questioned."Let's not frame it as helping or not helping. If you help me, you'll benefit too."Ellie contemplated for a brief moment, her mind filled with vivid images of a future where Chloe's reputation was completely destroyed, leaving her unable to pose any competition. A wave of pleasure surged through Ellie, engulfing her with a sense of satisfaction."All right then, but it'll cost you more," Elie agreed.*Since the day Xavia appeared at Fairlight, several da
