Chapter 35 Joseph Is Jealous!

By the time Joseph came back with the car keys, Chloe’s mind was still swimming.

“Hmm?” He raised his eyebrows. “What’s the matter? Let’s go.”

Chloe fiddled with the buttons of her coat and demurely said, “Is it too much trouble for you to drive me

this late at night?”

Despite not being emotionally prepared to confess to Jake yet, the idea of him seeing her with his uncle

and losing his confidence was too big of a temptation to let go. Just the thought of that scene sent

shivers of joy down her spine.

Unfortunately, Joseph misconstrued her intentions and his expression turned sour as he quipped,

“Don’t worry. I just happened to be heading back to the office and it’s along the way. I won’t be a

hindrance to your secret meeting with your paramour.”

“What paramour?” Chloe was taken aback, and it was not until a moment later that she realized the

meaning behind his odd tone. She took a few steps closer, smiling slyly as she stared at him. “Are you

jealous?”

Otherwise, why would he sound so sarcastic?

Joseph met her gaze and gave a dismissive smile. “Overconfidence is an illness. You better get it

treated sooner rather than later.”

He checked the watch on his wrist and strode downstairs in long strides. “If you’re not leaving, I am.”

“Of course, I’m coming! This is the first time you’re driving me somewhere, Jojo.” She trailed after him

like a lively butterfly.

Joseph turned the steering wheel, but he could still see Chloe out of the corner of his eye. She sat in

the passenger seat, earnestly looking ahead and occasionally pointing

out the way as if they were a husband and wife on a journey.

“Hey, stop! The right lane is on green light!” The urgent tone in Chloe’s voice brought Joseph back to

reality. He looked toward the pedestrian crossing and quickly adjusted

the car’s course.

Chloe breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, “What’s wrong with you? I told you several times, but you

still didn’t change directions.”

Regret flickered in Joseph’s eyes as he could not believe he had ever entertained the idea of spending

the rest of his life with such a talkative woman. He must have been insane.

Without pressing him for an explanation, Chloe simply pointed to a nearby cafe and said, “You can drop

me off here.”

As she got out of the car, Joseph looked at the small bag in her hand and said, “I’ll probably be back in

about an hour. If you can’t wait for me, just get a cab and go home first.”

“Are you really going to the office?” Chloe asked in surprise, her rosy lips parted slightly.

Could it be that she was just imagining things?

Well, she felt the likelihood of such a scenario was quite high. Having spent time in his presence, she

had become adept at discerning his usual mannerisms-aloof,

unforgiving, and sardonic.

“Of course. Do you think I’d deliberately become your personal chauffeur just to drive you here?”

Joseph replied with a sneer. xo.com fast update

“Okay then.” Chloe smiled brightly, waving at him. “Bye-bye. Be careful on the road and remember to

come back and pick me up. I’ll be waiting!”

“Okay.”

Joseph ran into Nathan who was just stepping out for a late-night snack when he arrived at Fairlight.

When Nathan saw Joseph coming out of his car, his eyes widened in shock as he asked, What are you

doing here so late at night?”

Joseph glanced at him and replied, “I came back to check on the bidding documents for

tomorrow.”

“Isn’t that something the staff can take care of?” Nathan wondered aloud, knowing Joseph would

usually not bother with such a trivial matter.

“Well, Chloe had something to take care of, so I dropped her off and decided to make a stop here,”

Joseph replied as he rubbed his temples. “Besides, those employees are all new. I want to make sure

there are no mistakes.”

Nathan was puzzled but unsurprised. He could see that Joseph’s primary intention was to drop Chloe

off at her destination and that the visit to the office was just a brief detour. She clearly occupied a

special place in Joseph’s heart.

However, he did not expose Joseph. After the brief chat, he slipped away quietly.

Why did he not expose Joseph?

The reason was simple-he could not beat Joseph.

Chloe waited ten minutes at the coffee shop before Jake and Ava showed up. The moment Ava spotted

her, she immediately started to act as if they were close sisters.

“Coco, how could you be so foolish? The second floor of our house is ten feet above the ground. You

can’t just jump off because you disagree with Father’s rule
