Chapter 578 I Don’t Want the Child, I Want You

Chloe chuckled self-deprecatingly. “I’m all right. Just getting by.”

“Do you have time for a meal?” Icarus asked.

Setting her jaw, Chloe replied, “I’m sorry, I don’t have time right now. Let’s catch up next time. Joseph and I will

treat you.”

A wave of disappointment washed across Icarus. “Are you still bothered by the fact that I lied to you before?”

“Not at all. It’s all in the past. Now that I’m pregnant, it’s not good for others to see me alone with a man,” Chloe

explained sincerely.

“Are you afraid Joseph will get jealous?” Icarus asked.

Chloe smiled silently. She was not afraid of Joseph getting jealous. She simply did not want the trouble and could not

be bothered to explain to him. After all, he would not believe her explanation anyway.

Icarus did not press the matter and took a look at his watch. “You’re still on the clock, right?”

“Yeah. Why?”

“I have something to give you. I’ll bring it over later,” Icarus replied.

“You don’t have to… You’ve already helped me today, and I haven’t even had the chance to treat you to a meal as

a thank you. You don’t have to give me a gift,” Chloe said.

“It’s nothing expensive. You go ahead and continue with your work. I’ll leave the gift at the reception. You can pick it

up when you get off,” Icarus said, patting her shoulder and leaving.

Chloe opened her mouth to call after him, but he was already far away. She shifted her the mess in the lobby,

feeling the urge to drag Otto back and give him a good beating. gaze to

After instructing the cleaning staff to tidy up, she called for a meeting with all the employees. They would need to

find a new office space to rent. While Otto had not explicitly asked them to leave today, their lease agreement

would expire next month, and they would face the issue of renewal.

Chloe could not stand Otto’s smug face and had no intention of humbling herself to negotiate for a renewal.

Besides, she was certain that Otto would not be keen on agreeing either.

She recalled a commercial building near Fairlight that seemed suitable, albeit a bit pricey.

In the evening, Joseph arrived to pick Chloe up and learned about the disturbance caused by Otto. His face sank.

‘How dare he bully my woman. He must be tired of living and wishes to end his life.”

“Don’t worry about finding a new office space. Leave it to me,” Joseph said.

Chloe did not refuse. Being pregnant, she did not want to run around in the freezing weather to scout for office

spaces either.

“Dear, I have something to ask you.” Joseph stared into her eyes, then repeated everything that Tyson had told

him. “You were already pregnant at that time. Why did you hide it from me?”

Chloe pouted. “What other reason could there be besides Xavia?”

He choked and a pang of pain struck his heart. So, she had been planning to leave him from the very beginning. If

he had known, he would have simply given Xavia’s child to Tyson. Even if it meant choosing between them, he

would have unhesitatingly chosen her.

He assumed that she would understand and empathize with him. He had made concessions in this matter and

offered her assurances. After all, which woman in a wealthy family did not hope to have control over assets?

Looking back, it was clear he had taken things for granted. Not everyone cared about money, and not everyone

could be compensated with money.

“I’m sorry. I was wrong.” Joseph cupped Chloe’s face in his hands. His voice was soft and gentle. “I won’t bring

Xavia’s child into our lives anymore. I only want you.”
