Chapter 270 Just an Insignificant Gain

Chloe suppressed her anger, realizing that engaging in a verbal battle or resorting to insults would only

be futile. She stared at Joseph with a feeble glare, her voice lacking any trace of intimidation. “If you lay

a hand on me again, you’ll regret it!”

In the front seat, Lucas could not help but chuckle. The peculiar dynamic between Joseph and Chloe

was uniquely endearing.

Back at the villa, after Lucas parked the car and departed, Joseph remained seated inside. His cool

gaze casually fell upon Chloe, who blinked in realization. She finally grasped the key point of the

situation before and asked, “You invited Xavia today specifically to discuss the missing dogs incident,

didn’t you?”

He neither confirmed nor denied, his response carrying a subtle implication. “If there’s a

misunderstanding, it needs to be clarified,” he said.

The incident involving Toto and Oreo going missing made him skeptical of anyone being audacious

enough to orchestrate it. After reviewing the surveillance footage, it seemed to indirectly validate

Chloe’s claims. He was a person who valued evidence. However, in his mind, it was just a matter of

two dogs, and he did not perceive it to be as complex as dealing with business affairs.

Upon hearing his words, Chloe could not help but feel a sense of injustice. “Tsk, you unconsciously

place more trust in Xavia than in me.”

“I don’t.”

“Yes, you do!”

Joseph’s eye twitched, and his teeth clenched tightly. “I won’t do it again next time.”

“Ah, so you admit that you trust Xavia more than you trust me.”

“Are you intentionally trying to provoke me?” His gaze returned to Chloe’s delicate buttocks, and he

lightly flicked his fingers. The lingering sensation from before brought a twisted

satisfaction to him.

Chloe shivered and quickly shielded her buttocks, giving him a sweet smile. “I was just teasing

you.”

Finally feeling a sense of satisfaction, Joseph snorted and stepped out of the car.

When Chloe finished tidying up and was ready to retire for the night, she noticed Joseph standing at

the entrance of the master bedroom, his handsome face betraying a trace of impatience. “Are you done

cleaning up?”

“Just finished. What’s the matter?”

“Sleep.” He pulled Chloe into the master bedroom, slipped off his shoes, and embraced her in one

smooth motion.

With a soft “click,” the room plunged into darkness. In the absence of light, Chloe shifted and

inadvertently collided with the warmth and solidity of the man’s chest. Her heart raced, its rhythm

quickening. “Wh-What are you doing?”

Were they really going to reconcile just like that?

“What do you think?” Joseph’s arms encircled her slender waist, his voice exuding a magnetic allure.

“Or perhaps you have something else in mind?”

Chloe immediately comprehended, vigorously shaking her head like a tambourine. “No, no, no!”

He bestowed a gentle kiss upon her forehead, his cool voice infused with a touch of tenderness. “Be a

good girl and go to sleep.”

Chloe’s eyelashes quivered, and her tranquil heart stirred once more. She closed her eyes. After an

exhausting day at work, her mind had been drained of considerable energy. Before long, she

succumbed to a deep slumber.

The following day, Benjamin persistently called Chloe, inquiring about her coming home. Having

severed ties with Ava and now presented with an opportunity to transfer shares, he sought to expedite

the process.

Chloe readily agreed and arranged a meeting with Benjamin to finalize the contract. She also took the

opportunity to tour the companies under the Johnsons in a comprehensive manner.

She found herself back in the same company again after six months. Those colleagues who had

previously looked down on her now wore artificial smiles, going out of their way to please her.

A hint of mockery flickered in her eyes. She knew their behavior all too well-hypocrites like them always

put on a show, fawning over whoever served their interests. xo.com fast update

Suddenly, Chloe felt disgusted with this environment. After exchanging greetings with Benjamin, she

decided to make a swift exit. As she descended the stairwell, she found herself face to face with Ava.

Ava’s expression betrayed no surprise at seeing her there, and she sneered mockingly. “So, the shares

have finally been transferred to your name, huh?”

Chloe smirked in response, her tone laced with satisfaction. “Just an insignificant gain. Feeling jealous,

are we?”
