Chapter 122 Family Friends
After a while, Joseph finally looked up from his computer screen and absent-mindedly picked
the document to read. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
up
He smoothly signed his name at the end of the document with steady penmanship.
“There’s no problem. It can be carried out.”
Chloe nodded and retrieved the document before she replied properly, “Okay, I’ll be going now, sir.”
However, a strong force opened the door before she reached it.
A domineering and attractive woman was standing outside. She strutted into the office in her high heels.
The woman was meticulous in her attire. Her clothes were customized designs by famous designers, so they were very expensive.
There were four strong and muscular bodyguards behind her. At a glance, it could be seen that they were well-trained.
Chloe was frightened and hastily took a step back.
“Joseph, your grandfather told me that you’re married!” Jane Fox stared at Joseph in disbelief
and evident sadness. “Say it isn’t true.”
Joseph’s black eyes turned ice-cold as he said, “Get lost.”
“No! I want you to tell me that you’re not married!”
Standing in the corner, Chloe pursed her lips. ‘If I were to hazard a guess, this woman is this jerk’s admirer.’
“Okay, I’ll tell you. I am married. Is there anything else you would like to ask?” Joseph crossed
his arms in front of his chest, iciness written all over his handsome face.
Jane looked like she had received a fatal blow. It took her a while to regain her composure after suffering that great shock.
“Who is she?”
Consequently, Chloe became nervous. Seeing how overbearing Jane was, she tiptoed to sneak out of the office, not wanting to get into trouble.
Joseph narrowed his black eyes and looked at Chloe before he cracked a wicked smile. He then pointed at her. “She’s the one.”
Chloe’s body stiffened as she clenched her fists tightly. She felt like rushing over to punch him.
‘Is he out of his mind?! Does he want to make it worse?!’
Jane then noticed another person in the office. When she looked over, she became vigilant.
Chloe was dressed like a student and looked extremely young, only in her early twenties. She looked pure and bright. Her legs peeking out from under her pleated skirt were slim and straight.
Her whole being was full of youthfulness and liveliness.
On the contrary, Jane was the same age as Joseph. A twenty-eight-year-old woman had no advantages in comparison. Although her family background was good and she was rich, Joseph was also a wealthy man.
Jane’s expression changed. She walked over and sized Chloe up. She then faked a smile. “This is the woman you found out there?”
“Tsk! Why did she say such a weird thing? Those who don’t know any better will think that I’m the homewrecker who ruined the relationship between her and Joseph.’
A hint of annoyance surfaced in Chloe’s heart. As she watched Joseph sitting on the chair leisurely, a thought dawned on her, and she suddenly threw herself into his arms.
“Jojo, I’m not the woman you found outside. We’re a couple that’s married to each other openly.”
Caught off guard, Joseph’s body stiffened. He looked down at the woman in his arms. Her body was tender and smelled good, and a tinge of distress showed on her fair face.
Unconsciously, he placed his hand on her waist and hugged her.
As a result, Jane was infuriated. She raised her voice and screamed at Chloe to get out of Joseph’s arms.
Chloe blinked innocently. “Miss, I’m hugging my husband. Why should I get out of his arms?”
While talking, she clung to his neck. “Darling, do you let me hug you?”
Joseph chuckled. Being a handsome man, both the women found it hard to breathe when they saw his smile.
He lowered his head and vaguely placed his thin lips against Chloe’s earlobe. “Who else should hug me if not you, hmm?”
The raised syllable he uttered at the end was magnetic and seductive, tempting people vehemently.
Chloe blushed as she stared at Joseph with shining eyes. Her heartbeat quickened.
“This b*stard is so good at flirting!!
Jane’s expression turned livid. If looks could kill, Chloe might be dead by now.
She glared at Chloe fiercely. “This is an office where people work. You can’t behave in such a manner. How crass!”
“Oh, the office…” Chloe stretched her words and smiled shyly. “I’m sure you’re not aware of some special hobbies Jojo fancy. He simply loves role-playing.”
Jane wanted nothing more than to strangle Chloe to death. She was fuming with anger as she said, “Joseph, this woman doesn’t look like a decent woman. She’s a tramp. She has no right to be a part of the Whitman family!”
Chloe was stupefied. She then looked Jane up and down and covered her mouth to laugh.” Well, you look like a pretty good match for him.”
After a brief pause, a smug look appeared on Jane’s face. “Of course, the Foxes and the Whitmans are longtime family friends.”
“But it’s a shame…”
“What is?”
Chloe touched her chin. “It’s a pity that you’re old. You look to be in your thirties. If you marry Jojo, you’ll be an old pregnant lady giving birth to babies after you’ve finished organizing the wedding, getting married, preparing to get pregnant, and finally getting pregnant.
“But I’m different. I’m still young. It’s not a problem for me to give birth to even a few babies.
