Chloe stood to the side, eager for a good show. Joseph claimed that the resort was the joint property of both Fairlight and Exotic Star, but Exotic Star had a bigger stake in it. So, Octavia's statement would simply raise criticisms from Joseph.Octavia became tongue-tied upon seeing Noah, she did not want to be embarrassed in public either. She braced herself and blurted out, "How are two suites enough? Why didn't you build more?" "That's my business. If you want in, consider investing." Octavia undoubtedly did not have the money to do this. Her face turned livid. "I was just giving a suggestion. Young people these days don't even take advice from their elders." "Who are you to do so? I don't even know you. Why should I listen to anything you have to say?" Noah shot back, but he did not look mad. It looked like he did not know her at all. A lot of people came and went. Xavia felt awkward and was a little terrified of Noah, so she leaned in and whispered to Octavia, "Let's j

Joseph calmed down and pushed the bowl of salad back to her.Chloe said, "I'm full."He raised his brows. "Do you want to go to bed or take a walk?" "It's past ten. By the time we wash up, it'll be almost midnight. Let's just go to bed. That way, we can wake up early and do something fun tomorrow.”"Hmm."The cobblestones on the path gleamed in the moonlight. Under the streetlamp, their shadows stretched out."By the way, Aunt Tavia came with Xavia. Did you know?" Chloe suddenly remembered and filled him in.Annoyed, Joseph knitted his brows. "I'll make them leave now."But Chloe was not up for a confrontation. "Isn't it too late now? Let's deal with it tomorrow.""Fine, tomorrow it is." He did not want to spoil his mood either.They walked a bit more and entered the hotel.Xavia emerged from a corner of the cobblestone path behind them. Her charming face twisted with spite as she clenched her fists. She had thought Chloe was kind, but turned out she was a hypocrite, compla

Chloe felt a little tense. She glanced sideways at Joseph.Joseph frowned deeply. “Where is she?""She's getting an X-ray. The bucket hit her arm.""Was the bucket dropped on purpose or merely an accident?" Patrick came over to explain. "We first thought it was an accident since no one was around. But after checking the nearby security footage and questioning a few witnesses, we found a suspicious worker. It could've been staged."Something heavy weighed on Chloe. She wished it was just an accident."Did you locate the worker?" "We have people out looking for them."Following that, Xavia was wheeled out by a doctor, a large bruise on her arm."She got lucky. The force was spread out, so no broken bones. She just needs an ice pack."Xavia looked rather pitiful in her long white dress. With her pale and gentle face, she was the picture of vulnerable beauty. Chloe's eyes turned dull, and she looked down to hide her emotions. Joseph went straight to the point. "Why were you

Octavia's voice carried far, and Xavia caught fragments of their conversation from the back garden just before Octavia left. Seizing the opportunity, Xavia stepped out.Joseph cast a brief glance at her. "Patrick, bring the worker here."Confused, Xavia asked, "What worker?""It appears that someone intentionally threw the metal bucket," Chloe responded, her eyes locked on Xavia.Xavia's pupils contracted abruptly, and her feet seemed to freeze, causing her entire body to stiffen momentarily. But it only lasted a second and she quickly regained her composure.‘Whether Vanya acted independently or instructed someone else, she shouldn’t have revealed my involvement in this incident. Besides Vanya, no one else knows about it. I was just a bystander—a victim! Even if they bring the worker here, they can't pin anything on me.’With her face returning to normal, she put on a gentle smile. "Since it's a worker, there's no need for compensation. Just find out the truth and let him go. I'

Chloe belatedly realized what he meant, her pretty face going a little pink. What was with this man? His mind was always in the gutter. Of course, Joseph was just messing with her. He was not so desperate as to get frisky in broad daylight.With the weather getting cooler, Chloe picked out long sleepwear, the soft cotton fabric loosely draping her delicate figure. The loose fit hid her pregnancy well, and she rarely experienced morning sickness. During her showers, her baby bump was noticeable, but once she got dressed, it was completely hidden. She looked just like any regular person. Even now, lying in the same bed as Joseph, there was no way anyone could tell her secret.Joseph was not accustomed to taking afternoon naps, but the woman cuddled up next to him smelled so good and felt so soft—like a natural sleep aid. Before he knew it, he drifted to dreamland. Out in the yard, Patrick was giving orders to the house helpers. "Mr. Harold's meds are running low. Go find Dr. Spence
