I Helped Pay 28 Million in Legal Fees
“Let’s talk about it tomorrow. I’m tired and just want to go home and rest,” Chloe said.
“Sure,” he replied.
“But I thought you left. Why did you come back?” she asked while they waited for the elevator.
Raising an eyebrow, Joseph responded, “Who told you I left?”
“So you never left? You’ve been in the office this whole time?”
“I was busy for a while, and by the time I finished, it was almost ten o’clock,” he explained.
In other words, he had been waiting for her.
Chloe smiled mischievously, her eyes sparkling, “I see…”
‘He just refuses to admit that he was waiting for me!‘
Inside the elevator, Joseph slovenly leaned against the wall, his waist narrow and shoulders broad. He
cast a cold glance at her and scoffed indifferently.
Enchanted by his charm, Chloe stared at him blankly for a couple of seconds. Honestly, she had
suspected that Joseph was not Jake’s uncle when she first met him at the bar. After all, he was too
good–looking to be his uncle. Though doubts had arisen, she had pushed them aside.
Ding. The elevator doors slid open.
Chloe had not even had the chance to collect her thoughts
when her gaze met Xavia’s. The woman resembled her online
photos, exuding elegance and poise, embodying the essence of beauty. She seemed to be around the
same age as Joseph, but with a hint of maturity that was not present in the photos.
Chloe’s brain buzzed, and she was stunned. ‘She just got back yesterday, and we’re meeting today?‘
She was not foolish enough to think it was merely a
coincidence. What was more, Xavia had appeared in Fairlight. It was Joseph’s territory, so she must
have gotten permission from him.
Chloe dug her nails into her palm, maintaining a composed demeanor and straightening her posture.
Xavia’s initial reaction upon seeing Chloe was that she had a slight resemblance to Jane. Chloe
possessed a youthful countenance, exuding radiance, and vitality akin to a freshly peeled apple,
bursting with succulent juices at the first taste. She had a good physique as well.
However, Joseph was not someone who judged by appearance alone. He admired the resilience and
tenacity he saw in Chloe’s eyes. Beneath her seemingly delicate exterior, nothing could destroy her.
A strong sense of crisis arose within Chloe.
Xavia slowly retracted her gaze and nodded slightly at Chloe. Hello, I’m Xavia Larson. I’m a close
friend of Joseph’s. Please don’t misunderstand. I came to Fairlight simply to see how the company we
worked hard for all those years has flourished.”
Chloe squinted, finding the statement rather amusing. ‘The company that they worked hard for all those
years? Is she referring to herself as the one who accompanied him through
all the hardships?‘
“Hello,” Chloe responded nonchalantly, seemingly oblivious. to the underlying implications.
Turning to Joseph, Xavia asked, “May I go upstairs to have a look?”
“Do whatever you want,” he replied.

Leaving the company, Chloe remained silent, refraining from speaking.
Sitting in the front seat, Lucas drove cautiously, making every effort to minimize his presence.
“Why are you so quiet?” Joseph glanced at her, a hint of confusion in his eyes.
With her arms crossed, Chloe responded, “I just don’t feel like talking.”
He lowered his head and said, “Xavia and I are over.”
She smiled faintly but remained silent. ‘If you two were truly over, then there’s no need to maintain any
form of friendship. A proper ex should be left buried in the past, instead of trying to assert their
presence unnecessarily.‘
Growing increasingly perplexed by her continued silence, Joseph felt a surge of frustration. He
asserted, “Enough. Don’t test my patience.” He had never been one to bow down before a woman, and
providing an explanation already felt like a significant concession on his part.
“So not speaking is considered testing your patience?” Chloe
chuckled exasperatedly.
“I want you to stay by my side, not to witness you disrespecting me,” he stated with an air of superiority,
his words cutting through the air.
Chloe furrowed her brow. “Then why should I have to tolerate your foul temper?”
“Because I paid a staggering 28 million dollars in legal fees on your behalf.”
Joseph believed it was necessary to make her realize her place. Otherwise, she would soon forget who
was in charge of this dynamic.
