Chloe's gaze lowered, torn between the desire to confide in Joseph and the fear of his potential anger. She knew from past experiences that even innocent encounters with Icarus would infuriate him. Now, with those distasteful photos circulating online, the thought of his reaction terrified her, and she could not bear to imagine it.Nevertheless, she summoned a delicate smile and assured him, "I'm fine, really. Let's just go ahead as planned."He looked at her seriously and said in a deep voice, "All right then."Clasping her hand with his, they strolled toward the parking area. As their fingers intertwined, he could not help but notice how small and cold her hand felt compared to his. A frown appeared on his face as he tightened his grip, allowing a comforting warmth to flow from his palm to hers, gradually thawing her icy fingers.Joseph had made an appointment at the most prestigious bridal store in Aesper. The store manager was aware of their visit and had rescheduled all other

Chloe froze for a moment and then hastily changed the subject. "Grandpa, I bought you your favorite pastry.""You're the best, my sweet. That brat has never bothered to get me anything," Harold said."Yeah, I've never gotten you pastries. I merely took care of the mess in the Whitman Group that was worth over 100 thousand dollars," Joseph remarked casually as he descended the stairs.He had changed into his home outfit. "Taking care of me and doing business are two completely different things. Don't get them mixed up," Harold retorted."All right then, from now on, I'll stop taking care of the Whitman Group's affairs and will focus solely on buying pastries for you," Joseph replied. He was dressed in a navy blue silk pajama that softened his edges, making him more approachable. "Shut it. Don't go saying things that’ll upset me." Chloe patted Harold's shoulder and said, "Everyone has their expertise. Jojo's intelligent and a natural leader in the business world. Asking him to

Chloe's hand froze in mid-air, and after a brief pause, she slowly lowered it."How long do I have to wait?"“About an hour.”"Okay."She let out a long sigh and walked to the window, opening it to take in the view of the backyard. Toto had been brought home, and at that moment, Toto was joyfully playing with Oreo.Suddenly, a thought struck Chloe. Since the time Xavia sent Oreo here, she had never bothered to visit or show any concern for the dog. The few times she came here were just to cause her trouble. This behavior led Chloe to suspect that even sending Oreo was part of Xavia's calculated scheme.*On the highway from Cloude to Aesper.Sitting in a van, Vanya spoke respectfully as she reported to the person on the other end. Ten minutes later, she ended the call. The driver peered at the license plate of the car in front of them and asked, “Hey Van, up ahead. Doesn’t this car belong to the guy who ruined Xavia's plan?"Vanya leaned forward, trying to see inside the car,

Their intimate connection lasted for a long moment with them moving from the bean bag to the bed. Only when the atmosphere around them was fully charged with their desire did Chloe weakly push Joseph away."Where have you been all day?""I went to Cloude with Tyson. We found the guy who leaked your photos. All of them have been destroyed," Joseph replied.Chloe was stunned. "Who was it?""He's with that masked woman, but he's just a low-ranking lackey who doesn't know much."Pressing her lips together tightly, Chloe fixed her gaze on him and asked, "Why did you help me if you were mad at me?""Are those two things contradictory?" Joseph shot back. "Then why did you lock me in?" she asked, her frown deepening."I locked you up so that you could reflect on your mistakes. When faced with a problem, why didn't you tell me immediately? As your husband, it's my responsibility to help you overcome any difficulties and protect you," Joseph said with a displeased squint. "You not only

Lucas touched his nose. "Yes, I did. You’re always calling Mr. Joseph a jerk, Emily. I wanted to prove that he isn't."Chloe could not quite understand. Lucas' help did not seem to affect Emily at all. Instead, he seemed to have helped her vent her anger.Joseph had not arrived. She sent him a message, but he said he needed another hour or two.Since they had to wait for him, Chloe and Emily decided to stroll around the other project sites. However, they crossed paths with Noah not long after they started off.Chloe’s eyes lit up. "This is perfect. I have something to discuss with you."Noah had a clean and handsome face. He gave off the vibe of a gentle spring breeze, and he often carried a faint smile that made people feel warm and comfortable."Sure, go ahead."Chloe explained the situation in detail, her tone earnest. "That jewelry was left to me by my mother, and they’re very important to me. I hope you’ll help me find them."Noah fell silent for a while then said in a voic
