Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 625 Chloe Gave Joseph a Polite Bow

Desmond’s gray brows furrowed as he sighed and did not deny this. "She's Joseph's wife."

"Grandpa, they divorced a long time ago. It's the twenty-first century now. What's wrong with me trying to gain the heart of the woman I like?" Although Noah did not want Chloe to return to the Sullivan family with Joseph's child, he could not do anything to wrong her.

"Her disgrace makes it hard for her to be a part of Sullivans. As your grandfather I need to consider certain things.”

Noah was the grandson of Desmond's friend, and that friend had entrusted Noah to him more than ten years ago. Desmond felt responsible for looking after Noah. Marriage was a big issue, and he could not let Noah take the wrong path out of ignorance. As an elder, he admitted that he did not hate Chloe. He pitied her, but it was impossible for her to marry Noah.

Noah looked at Desmond and asked seriously, "If Chloe was your granddaughter, will you still think of her as a disgrace?"

Desmond was taken aback. Reconsidering the whole picture from that angle, he would feel very sorry that his granddaughter was a divorcee who had to single-handedly raise a child. He would teach anyone who called her a disgrace a hard lesson. It was pretty double standards, but everyone adored their descendants.

Alas, Chloe was not his grandchild, but Noah was albeit adopted. Desmond had no desire to answer such hypothetical questions. He waved and said, "Go to the hall and reflect on your mistakes for three days. Come out after you've figured it out."

Noah chuckled. "Grandpa, I'm afraid you'll have to retake the reins of Exotic Star then. I’ll be in the hall for a very, very long time."

At the villa, Chloe was patiently sitting in the living room and waiting for Joseph to come home. Joseph had planned to go to the hospital, but on second thought, he ordered Lucas, "Let's head back to the villa first." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"Okay, sir."

At six in the evening, Chloe heard a car being parked outside. She got up, walked to the door, and came face to face with Joseph. He was wearing a slim-fit dark blue suit. With his tall and handsome figure, he looked dazzling in the light of the setting sun. Gazing at him, she fell into a trance for a brief moment, transported back to the moment they first met.

He was a star that was born to shine.

Joseph waved in Chloe’s face. "What's wrong?"

Chloe caught her mind wondering . She quickly averted her gaze. "I'm fine."

Joseph nodded. "Let's go to the living room."

"Okay."

They sat on the sofa, and they both spoke up at the same time.

"There’s something I’d like to talk about."

“I want to discuss something with you."

Joseph’s brows went up. He crossed his legs and said, "You first."

"Our relationship is currently in a bad state. You can't keep me locked up, and I don't want to be callous with you. It's exhausting."

A gentleness dawned his face. He had missed her past self—the woman who was charming and as bright as the sun. Hence, he had planned to pour out all his innermost thoughts. Compared to losing her, he was willing to try everything.

"Please let me go. If you think I've in any way wronged you, I’m willing to apologize." Chloe got to her feet and gave him a polite bow. It was a gesture full of humbleness.

Joseph's expression stiffened. "Is there nothing else you wish to say to me?”
