Chapter 101 Role-Playing
A look of enlightenment appeared in Chloe’s black eyes as she looked at Joseph’s face.
She asked carefully and tentatively, “Did Grandpa ask me to go to your company?”
“Pretty much.”
“He mentioned this to me before, but I turned it down with an excuse.”
Her underlying meaning was that it was none of her business now.
Joseph looked up at her coldly. “Well, you shirk responsibility pretty fast.”
“It doesn’t concern me, so why can’t I shirk responsibility?” Chloe retorted seriously.
Harold was too enthusiastic, and she found it hard to accept. It was not that she could not handle it.
She was just not a true granddaughter-in-law of the Whitman family.
She was unwilling to lie to Harold every time she met him because he was very nice to her. Thus, she
felt guilty. She was weighed down by her guilty conscience.
Joseph retrieved a tissue and wiped his lips before he asked lightly, “Are you very busy at Baxon?”
“Yeah, I’m a little busy.”
“Do you get tired?”
“I can handle physical exhaustion, but I’m mentally drained too.”
On the surface, those in Baxon were nice and peaceful, but secretly, they schemed against each. other.
Working there was exhausting. She had to be vigilant at all times.
Joseph’s eyebrows went up. When he was about to speak, Chloe beat him to it.
She stated light-heartedly, “But I’ve decided to resign.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtConsequently, he became slightly surprised. “Why?”
He thought she would hold on for a year or two at Baxon. Surprisingly, she was enlightened after such
a short time. She was not that stupid, after all.
“It’s because you’re right.” Chloe supported her chin with two hands and sighed helplessly. She
recalled what had happened over the past few days.
She seemed to have found a place to vent her feelings, so she told him everything in one go.
When she was done, she let out a long sigh, feeling much more relaxed.
Joseph was not at all surprised by the affairs that happened. Baxon had always had a bad reputation in
the industry. It was the reason why most companies were expanding while this

hundred-year-old corporation was falling behind.
“Are there any Estrenian documents from your company for me to translate right now?” Chloe smiled
shyly. “I have time now.”
“No, we’ve recruited enough translators.”
Her expression became gloomy. She simply sighed in reply.
After a pause, Joseph recalled what Harold had said earlier today. “But there are other positions.”
Puzzlement washed over Chloe. “What do you mean?”
“Just take it literally.”
“Do you want to hire me to work at your company?”
“Forget it if you don’t want to.”
“No, I do. But what’s the position? And…how much is the salary…” She picked her fingernails
nervously, looking at Joseph eagerly.
If they worked at the same company as him, she could meet him at work and after work.
She would have plenty of chances then.
However, there was a problem.
She felt that Jake’s uncle, even if he owned a company, would possess only a medium one at most. A
mere medium-sized company would never be on par with the one Alexander Graham
owned.
Although Jake was pretty useless, his uncle was capable. It might only be a medium company in the
beginning but it was likely to grow bigger over time.
“How much do you want?”
Joseph tapped on his watch and raised a query. “How much do
After dwelling on it for a few seconds, she boldly gestured a number at him. It was the salary Fairlight
had offered her back then.
She would be very satisfied with that amount.
Without any hesitation, he nodded and agreed to it. “Okay.”
A strange feeling overwhelmed her as she blinked.
‘Well, his company isn’t small. His employees’ salaries are the same as Fairlight’s. But would Ava have
targeted Jake if he has an uncle like him?
‘Of course not. So, there’s only one possibility left.
‘Joseph isn’t Jake’s uncle.’

When this thought emerged in Chloe’s mind, she was shocked. Goosebumps erupted all over her skin,
and she quickly denied it in the next second. xo.com fast update
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘Of course, Joseph was Jake’s uncle. Jake is also aware that I want to seduce his uncle.
“That’s just impossible.’
Thinking of this, she was relieved. She then put away all those chaotic thoughts in her mind.
Joseph supported his chin with one hand as he observed her. Doubt and shock flashed across her
face. She even nodded, shook her head, and muttered to herself from time to time, her thoughts
unknown to others.
He pinched her cheek. “I’m negotiating your salary with you, and you’re daydreaming?”
“Hehe, I’m sorry.” Chloe then sat upright and still. “You haven’t told me what position you’re offering me.
What are the requirements?”
‘What position?’ Joseph pondered.
There were many departments in Fairlight. It should not be too hard to find a post that was
suitable for her.
He only had one request. “Work hard at the company and keep our relationship a secret.”
Chloe understood, so she patted her chest and promised, “Will do.”
She could not pester him in public, but she could flirt with him in secret.
When Joseph thought of the differences between her and the other employees, he wanted Samuel to
draft a special labor contract for Chloe. He told Samuel about his idea after dinner.
Samuel’s lips twitched. “This isn’t a labor contract anymore, is it?”
However, Joseph answered noncommittally, “Why not? She’ll be adding value to Fairlight, and I’ll pay
her a corresponding salary. There’s just an additional term.”
Samuel was rendered speechless. All this sounded serious, but for some unknown reason, he thought
