An Unworthy Match, but There Are Lingering Attachments
“Get in.” Joseph’s tone left no room for negotiation.
Chloe’s heart sank. Since she had said yes to Grandpa, she knew she would have to face it sooner or
later. Taking a deep breath, she opened the car door and got in.
“Did Grandpa talk to you about it?”
“Min.”
“Three months starting from today. But don’t expect me to forgive you,” Joseph said with a cold
indifference evident on his dazzling face.
Chloe offered a faint smile. “Perhaps I should be the one saying those words to you.”
‘A scumbag who slept with two women in one night can’t be whitewashed.’
Joseph cast a sidelong glance at her, his lips curling in a mocking smirk. “Then why did you say yes to
Grandpa?”
“I’m a human being with feelings and emotions. I appreciate the kindness Grandpa has given me thus
far. What’s wrong with agreeing to his request? Must we all be as cruel and heartless as you?” Chloe
retorted, her voice filled with anger.
Joseph let out a cold snort, seemingly convinced that she had hidden motives.
Refusing to give him any more attention, Chloe crossed her arms and fixed her gaze on the passing
scenery outside. As the car continued down the road, she belatedly realized their surroundings and
asked, “Where are you taking me?”
“To the villa.”
“I don’t want to go there.”
“We can’t stop on the highway. If you insist, you can jump out of the car.
Chloe tightly clenched her fists, taking a deep breath. ‘Endure it. Just endure it until we’re off the
highway.’
Joseph caught a glimpse of her shifting expression from the corner of his eye, and a faint smile played
on his thin lips.
Halfway through the drive, Joseph’s phone rang. Chloe, seated in the passenger seat, caught sight of
the words “Xavia Larson” displayed on the screen. Her eyelashes fluttered, and she averted her gaze
to the window.
Being behind the wheel, Joseph opted to put the call on speakerphone.
“Joe, I saw on the news that Mr. Harold is seriously ill and is in the hospital. How Is he doing?”
“His condition has stabilized and he’s currently doing well.”
Xavia’s disappointment etched onto her face as she listened from the other end of the phone. If the old
man were to die now, it would be a perfect outcome for her. It would relieve her of the burden of making
a difficult decision if the pregnancy was discovered only later. However, now she had to wait until the
child reached four months, which carried greater risks. This strategy was dangerous.
While pondering these thoughts, Xavia offered her consolation, “That’s wonderful news. Grandpa will
surely have a long and healthy life. But Joe, please don’t mention that I asked about his condition. We
know how he feels about me. It would only make him
angry.”
Joseph’s brows furrowed slightly as he responded, “Don’t belittle yourself. It’s impossible for a person
to be liked by everyone else.”
“Really? But you don’t like me either,” she said, her voice filled with a sense of desolation.
Joseph paused, his thoughts swirling in contemplation. He came to the realization that his feelings
toward Xavia had never truly been driven by genuine affection. Initially, he had been drawn to her for
her impeccable propriety, her sensible nature, and her ability to navigate social dynamics with finesse,
unlike those clingy young girls. He deemed her suitable to be hist wife based on these qualities.
Furthermore, as she had remained by his side for two years, he felt it appropriate to grant her a certain
status, and thus they became a couple.
However, everything changed when he encountered the woman seated next to him. Unexpectedly, he
discovered that genuine liking stemmed from an inherent fondness for someone, while suitability was a
separate matter altogether.
So, on that fateful night at Graceville Estate, Joseph never anticipated that events would unfold in such
a manner. He firmly held his position, offering Xavia compensation for the upheaval caused, but he
could not make promises of a future together. Because deep down, he knew that his true affection lay
with Chloe.
But now, he and Chloe were no longer a worthy match. Yet, strangely enough, he still found himself
clinging to lingering attachments.
