I’ve Got Great Assets
While sitting at the dining table and waiting for Chloe to finish cooking dinner, Joseph browsed through
the company’s internal chat group where everyone was gossiping.
[Breaking news! Baxon’s executive got an employee pregnant. Someone saw him taking the employee
to the hospital for an abortion!)
[Is this executive named Maurice Oberden?]
[Yes! How did you know?]
[His scandals have been circulating in the financial world. Rumor has it that his wife found out and
confronted him at his office last year. Don’t know why they’re not divorced yet though.]
[His wife is a full-time housewife. A divorce won’t be easy considering her situation.]
Joseph scrolled down and the gossip about the Baxon’s executive ended there. He switched his phone
off just as Chloe finished making the pasta.
“Ta-da, your carbonara is ready! I even made you an omelet!”
Joseph then looked at her plate, which contained nothing but some blanched broccoli.
“Have you had your dinner?”
“No, I’m on a diet and don’t want to eat too much.”
Although it was generally advised not to eat anything at this late hour, her stomach. was rumbling so
loudly as she cooked that she could not resist making some blanched
broccoli for herself.
“You’re not fat. There’s no need for you to go on a diet,” Joseph said seriously.
Spring and summer were generally busy seasons for companies, and there were a lot of things for
Chloe to learn at her new job. If she was not at peak physical health, she might quickly become
exhausted and burnt out.
“No! I weighed myself today and saw that I’ve gained six pounds!”
If a woman could not control her weight, how did she expect to control a man?!
Jaws set tight, Joseph stared unblinkingly at the stubborn woman before him. “If you want to lose
weight, don’t do it in front of me.”
“I…” Chloe opened her mouth to fight back but hesitated before changing the subject.
”
I understand. You’re afraid that if I lose weight, I won’t be curvy anymore and you don’t
like that.”
“Seriously?” Joseph massaged his temples. “What the heck is going on inside that head of yours?”
He had been joking when he said he liked curvy women but she had taken his words
seriously.
“But Jojo, men like curvy women, not overweight ones. They need to be filled in all the right places.”
Chloe then puffed out her chest confidently and said in all seriousness, As for myself, I’ve got great
assets. Even if I were to lose some weight, my curves would
still be noticeable.”
Observing her behavior and facial expression, Joseph’s eyes shifted as he avoided her gaze. “Are you
always this expressive? Do you just blurt out everything that crosses your mind?”
Chloe looked at him with an innocent expression and asked, “What did I say that was wrong? I was
simply stating facts. It’s not like I’m showing you my thighs or bum.”
He was at a loss for words, unable to refute her statement.
Chloe noticed that Joseph was rendered speechless for the first time. She blinked and leaned in closer
to him, almost touching his face, and inquired in a playful tone, “Jojo, are you feeling shy?”
“Me? Shy?” He sneered and met her gaze. “I just have a sense of shame.”
Chloe pouted as she did not believe him.
After they had finished their dinner, Joseph said, “Be careful of a man named Maurice
from Baxon.”
Having only been there for a day, Chloe had no recollection of this name and could only recall hearing
a few comments from her colleagues. Bewildered, she asked, “Why?”
Joseph did not say anything further and replied, “You’ll understand in the future.”
During the following month, Chloe made a great effort to integrate into her new workplace, often
leaving early and returning late. As a result, she had less time to devote to cooking and occasionally
relied on Joseph to prepare late meals. However, he always prepared simple dishes, which prevented
Chloe from realizing the true breadth of his culinary skills.
Chapter 44 Tve Got Great Assets
One day, Chloe attended her culinary class after work and ran into fearus, whom she had not seen in a
while. She seemed surprised and asked, “You haven’t been coming to class lately.”
Ever since Harry mentioned that Icarus had recommended her for the job at Baxon, she had been
eager to invite him out for a meal. Unfortunately, she was never able to meet him as he had been
absent from class.
“Yeah, I’ve had a few work-related things to take care of, so I was out of the country for a few days. I
heard you joined Baxon. How’s it going? Are you getting used to it?” Icarus
asked.
“It’s going swimmingly,” Chloe replied.
Chloe disliked being indebted to others. As soon as the class ended, she invited Icarus to a meal.
“When are you free? I’d like to treat you and Mr. Harry to a meal. After all, without your
recommendation, I wouldn’t have been able to join Baxon.”
“Sounds good. Just let me know the time and place.”
“Sure, but I don’t think we can do it today. I have to head back and finish my assignment,” she replied,
gesturing toward the dessert recipe handed out by their
instructor.
The tuition fees were high for a reason. The class structure was strict, and there was not room for
personal adjustments. Additionally, after each session, the instructor would provide the students with
ingredients to practice with at home.
“In that case, I won’t keep you. It looks like it’s going to rain soon, and it won’t be easy. to hail a cab in
such weather. Do you want me to give you a ride home?” Icarus.
suggested as he glanced outside at the darkening sky.
Chloe considered for a moment and thought it made sense. After all, she had been
looking forward to Saturday. She planned to make some homemade dog food for Toto, but if she got
home too late, she would not have enough time to finish.
“Okay, thank you in advance.” She accepted his offer.
As expected, halfway through the ride, it began to rain heavily.
Pointing toward a nearby spot, Chloe said, “I’ll get off up there.”
Icarus looked at the mart ahead and guessed that she was going to buy something. He stepped on the
brakes and parked the car on the side of the road.
“Thank you for the ride. I’ll text you when I’ve decided on the time and place.”
Chapter 441’ve Got Great Assets
After speaking, Chloe covered her head with her hands and sped off toward the mart’s
entrance.
She was dressed in a black, form-fitting knitted dress that swayed gracefully as she ran, making her
look alluring and charming. Hands gripping the steering wheel, Icarus kept his gaze fixed on her figure,
unable to look away even after she entered the mart.
Chloe got all the ingredients for the dog food and walked out of the mart with two large -bags in her
arms. Across the street was a five-story pool hall nestled inside a
commercial building.
Joseph held a cue stick and bent down slowly, his slim-fitting suit vest accentuating his broad shoulders
and narrow waist. He pressed his left wrist against the table and used his slender fingers as a bridge to
support the cue stick. Narrowing his eyes slightly, he expertly hit the white ball on the table with the cue
stick which then hit the red ball on the right, pushing it into the pocket.
“Great shot!” Nathan clapped enthusiastically.
Joseph glanced outside the window and caught a glimpse of Chloe who was downstairs. He hesitated
for a moment, remembering that she was going to make dog food for Toto today.
‘Oh well, since she’s making food for my pet, I could give her a ride back,’ he thought. With that thought
in his mind, Joseph threw his cue stick to Nathan, startling the man.
“Are we leaving already? Don’t you want to play a little longer?” “Nope. I have to go home and take
Toto for a walk,” he replied.
