There Were Illegal Items in Your Office
Natalie pouted. “As long as Joe is happy, I’m content.”
In the past few days, Natalie had stayed home to ponder deeply about her feelings. She concluded that
her feelings toward Joseph were not romantic in nature, but rather akin to the adoration of a devoted
fan for an idol. In her eyes, from childhood to adulthood, Joseph excelled both in his studies and
appearance.
After graduation, he liberated himself from his family and single-handedly took charge of Fairlight,
turning the tables and achieving a remarkable success that the entire industry envied. Naturally,
someone like him would always be the center of attention wherever he went, Everyone harbored
admiration for extraordinary individuals, and she was no exception. However, it remained mere
admiration. To truly love someone is to be selfish and incapable of compromise. Joseph’s handsome
features softened slightly. “You’ve grown up,” he commented
Natalie smiled at him. “Joe, if you happen to come across any remarkable men, remember to introduce
them to me.”
Chloe recalled the image of a young man in her mind and gently touched her chin. “You know Noah
Gunter, right? I believe you two would be quite compatible.”
Despite the age difference and similar family backgrounds, both of them possessed lively and spirited
demeanors.
Joseph smirked mischievously. “Yes, I agree. Noah suits you.”
“Noah Gunter? The one from Exotic Star?” Natalie looked confused. “I’ve heard of that name, but I
can’t recall any specific impression.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure you two get acquainted.”
Natalie’s face lit up. “Thank you, Joe!”
The movie began, and they turned their heads to focus on the film. They stopped engaging with Natalie
as the film started rolling. The sci-fi genre appealed mostly to male viewers and children. Unfortunately,
a child seated in front of them became restless, causing a commotion. Despite the child’s disruptive
behavior, their parents found it endearing and paid no mind.
Chloe’s mind stirred as she leaned close to Joseph’s ear and asked, “If your future child behaved like
that, what would you do?”
“Give them a good beating.”
– Order cannot exist without rules. Unfortunately, it is often the parents who indulge their children
and contribute to the issues they face.
“In that case, do you still want a child now?” she asked abruptly, causing Joseph to fall silent for a few
seconds.
His gaze turned distant and uncertain. “It’s not the right time yet.”
Chloe’s face tensed, her tone becoming rigid. “You’re willing to accept the child Xavia is carrying, but
when it comes to my child, suddenly it’s not the right time?”
“That’s not what I meant,” he explained. “Fairlight and the Whitman Group have two major projects
coming up in the second half of the year that will run simultaneously. I’ll be extremely busy. If you have
a child during this time, I won’t have much time to spend with you.”
He could afford to neglect Xavia, but he could not neglect his wife. Ideally, he wanted to wait until Xavia
had given birth, raise the child for a year or two, and gain enough experience before they prepared for
their own child.
Chloe could not grasp his thoughts and found his reasoning hard to comprehend. In a subdued tone,
she replied, “I understand.”
The movie came to an end. They had initially planned to go for a meal after, but to their surprise, Lucas
called and informed them that he had contacted the buyer of the house, but they refused to sell.
Joseph furrowed his brow. “Even with a higher offer?”
“Yes… I’ve already doubled the price…”
“Send me this person’s details.”
“Right away.”
Chloe noticed how worried he was about this property and suggested, “How about you go and handle
this first? We can have dinner another day.
“No worries. I need to find out who this buyer is first.”
While making their way toward the restaurant area on the fourth floor, Lucas forwarded the buyer’s
information-a forty-year-old Amerian man who had arrived in Docwood five years ago for business. He
was suspected of being involved in illicit industries and had a net worth of a few million at most.
‘How could someone with a net worth of a few million afford a house worth hundreds of millions and
refuse to sell even when offered double the price? Can they resist such temptation? This doesn’t seem
normal,’ Joseph thought, suddenly overwhelmed by a sense of impending doom.
Sure enough, as they approached the restaurant, their path was blocked by six to seven fully armed
police officers.
“Mr. Joseph, we received a report that there were items of illegal nature stored in your office. Upon
confirmation, we found this in the drawer under your desk. Please come with us to cooperate with the
investigation.”
Chloe’s eyebrows knitted together tightly as she looked at the bag of white powder in the officer’s
hands. She was not foolish enough to think it was merely a bag of flour.
It was evident that these officers were not Tyson’s men either..
Joseph’s face paled, and his voice grew cold. “Who made the report?”
“We’re not authorized to disclose that information. We need to protect the privacy and safety of the
informant.”
“I can go with you, but I insist on contacting my lawyer.”
“Very well.”
Chloe quickly spoke up, “I’ll go get Samuel.”
