Chapter 237 Joseph Felt an Inexplicable Sense of Satisfaction

After receiving a stern reprimand from Harold, Preston emerged from the room wearing a

crestfallen expression, his lips sealed in silence.

Jonathan quickly approached Preston, eagerly inquiring about the outcome. “Father, how did it go? Did

Grandfather make any mention of expelling that woman?”

With an air of self-satisfaction, Octavia chimed in, “That’s right, honey. At his age, he surely wouldn’t

lose sight of what’s important, right?”

“Ahem!” Before Preston could speak, Harold descended from upstairs. His eyes, clouded yet piercing,

resonated with authority as he asked, “Have I ever lost sight of what’s important?” Octavia chuckled

awkwardly. “Dad, you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t say anything…”

Under Harold’s intimidating presence, Preston took a deep breath and announced, “From now on,

Chloe is a member of our family.”

Jonathan was stunned. He did not know what kind of magic Chloe had cast on Harold to make him so

protective of her. Unwilling to accept it, he questioned, “Grandpa, if you can embrace Chloe as family,

why did you reject Xavia back then?”

“Xavia?” Harold scoffed dismissively. “She’s merely a cog in the entertainment machine. What makes

you think she’s deserving of joining our family?”

“Xavia is an artist and a renowned actress, not just-”

“Only dim-witted people like you could be deceived by her. Now, go amuse yourself somewhere else

and stop bothering me,” Harold said, clearly displeased whenever Xavia’s name was brought up. He

had no interest in engaging with Jonathan and decided to join a group of old friends for a card game.

Joseph’s heart burned with dissatisfaction. “Dad, Grandpa is being biased. He favors my cousin and

pays me no heed.”

Preston cast a scornful glance at him. “It’s simply because you fail to meet his expectations. You don’t

have a successful career or a wife.”

Jonathan grumbled, “What’s so difficult about getting a wife? Who knows, maybe the first great-

grandchild of the Whitmans will be my child…”

At night, Joseph and Chloe chose to spend the night at the family home.

-They retired to their room.

After finishing her shower, Chloe emerged from the bathroom and noticed Joseph engrossed in his

work. He was dressed in a navy blue pajama, slovenly leaning against the headboard. His slender

fingers rhythmically tapped on the keyboard, and the sharp angles of his profile

resembled a masterpiece sculpted by the heavens,

Blushing slightly, Chloe hesitated. “Um, where am I supposed to sleep?”

Joseph raised his gaze, displaying a mix of arrogance and nonchalance as he looked at her.”

There’s only one bed, so what do you think?”

“Well, since there’s only one bed, we’ll have to make do and share it for the night,” she said, her tone

reluctantly accepting.

But despite her reluctance, she wasted no time climbing onto the bed. After all, they were already

together, and she had no intention of sleeping on the floor.

A twitch formed at the corner of Joseph’s mouth as he saw through her intentions. It made him

question himself-was he really seen as so indifferent in her eyes?

Initially feeling a bit uneasy, Chloe’s exhaustion quickly overcame her, and she drifted off to sleep. It

was two hours later when Joseph finished replying to his emails. He set aside his laptop and rubbed his

temples, casting his gaze toward the peacefully sleeping Chloe by his side. Her flowy t shirt hung

loosely on her body, and a few strands of her hair partially covered her face. Her sleeping posture was

not particularly graceful, yet she exuded a carefree and somewhat amusing charm.

A barely perceptible smile tugged the corner of Joseph’s lips as he reached out to tuck a stray lock of

her hair behind her ear. With gentle and deliberate movements, he opened his arms and embraced her,

drawing her close.

The faint scent of her body mingled in his nostrils, evoking an inexplicable sense of contentment in him.

Nestling his face into the curve of her neck, the softness of her skin seemed to possess a magical

quality, relieving him of the day’s weariness.

They slept deeply through the night. They were oblivious to the passing xo.com fast updatetime,

and as a result, missed breakfast the next morning.

Chloe gradually awoke from her slumber, her body feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. Stretching lazily,

her fingers inadvertently brushed against the person beside he
