Chapter 501 A Disgusting Relationship

Thankfully, Lucas got there in time and instructed the security guards to drive the away. He then led her to the

safety of the elevator.

“I’m afraid those reporters won’t budge for the day. You’ll have to leave through the back door later.”

Chloe knitted her brows slightly. “Got it. Is Joseph very busy today?”

Lucas nodded firmly. “Yes, he’s been having meetings with the executives. Someone opposes the motion of

dismissing Preston from the board. They think it’s bad for Fairlight’s reputation.”

“Yes, it kind of is,” Chloe replied honestly.

Lucas gave her a strange look. ‘I wasn’t expecting her to be so kind. Octavia has targeted her many times, yet she

doesn’t hold a grudge against Octavia’s family.’

“Dismissing Preston is ideal but it’d be better to do it quietly and not let everyone learn about

it.”

Preston and his family were ungrateful pests. They leeched off Joseph but never once showed gratitude toward

him. Joseph might as well give up such relatives.

Lucas was struck speechless. He felt that he had been overthinking.

An idea suddenly popped into Chloe’s mind. She inevitably murmured, “Let everyone learn about it…”

Given his intelligence, It was a piece of cake for Joseph to secretly drive Preston and his family out of the Whitman

Group. This large mess was undoubtedly created for outsiders to witness.

‘So this is all a scheme to make Joseph fall out with Harold…’

Chloe calmed herself and walked to the door of the office. When she raised her hand to knock, she heard

conversation within the office.

“You’re heartless, Joseph. It’s fine for you to dismiss Jonathan from the board, but now you want to get rid of

Preston, your own uncle, too? Aren’t you afraid of public condemnation?”

“Are you here to seek justice for Preston?”

“Of course.”

“I see… I thought you were here because you’re angry about the loss of five points of interest.”

“That’s what I deserve. It’s normal while doing business.”

“Does that include letting your daughter climb into Preston’s bed?”

Chloe gaped while eavesdropping outside. Preston had cheated on his wife.

Edgar Cottrell looked like a sore spot had been brought up and shouted agitatedly,

“They like each other. What does that have to do with me?”

“She likes married men?”

“Stop putting up a noble front. You approved it when Hazel came to the Whitman Group to work as an intern. If she

didn’t look like Xavia, would you have agreed to hire her?”

Chloe’s head buzzed. She abruptly opened the door and stared at Joseph. “What does that mean? You found a

substitute?”

That woman was his uncle’s mistress. What a disgusting relationship!

“Don’t listen to his nonsense.” The veins on Joseph’s forehead throbbed. He rebuked Edgar sternly, “Get out.”

Upon seeing Chloe barge into the office, Edgar decided to throw all caution to the wind. He took out his phone and

flipped through his photo gallery. “See? This is Hazel Cottrell. During those years that Xavia went missing, Hazel

came to the Whitman Group for an internship. Joseph didn’t even look over her resume before approving her. I’m

sure I don’t have to tell you the rest.”

Chloe stared at the photograph closely. The woman in it was charming and adorable with facial features that

slightly resembled Xavia’s. But she did not have the temperament Xavia possessed-instead full of shyness and

youthfulness. She looked very much like how Xavia would look back when Xavia was younger.

Joseph snatched the phone, looking furious. “Hazel no longer works in the Whitman Group. That’s the past. I didn’t

read her resume, but the HR did.”

Edgar raised a sarcastic remark. “Yes, she didn’t meet the recruitment criteria, but you still turned a blind eye to it

and hired her.”
