Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love pdf

Chapter 214 What’s Our Relationship Now?

Emily stared at the information about Xavia on Wikipedia, lost in thought. “She is quite beautiful, but

she gives off a keep-your-distance vibe. She doesn’t look like someone easy to get along with, not like

you.”

Chloe responded with a smile, perceiving Emily’s words as mere consolation. “Well, she’s a renowned

violinist, after all. She naturally carries herself differently from the rest of us.”

“Hah, she’s just another poser.”

At that moment, Chloe’s phone rang, and Joseph’s voice came through, informing her of his arrival.

Joseph’s car was parked by the hospital entrance. As Chloe and Emily approached, engrossed in their

lively conversation and laughter, Joseph could not help but notice Chloe’s resplendent complexion and

her vibrant energy. She seemed to emanate a vibrant aura as if she had completely recovered.

A smile crept onto his face. It seemed to him that she had recovered well and that it would not affect

her ability to conceive in the future.

“I’ll drop you home, Emily,” he offered.

Chloe opened the passenger door for Emily, gesturing for her to get in. Momentarily hesitant, Emily

touched her face and asked, “Is it okay? I hope I won’t cause any inconvenience…”

Joseph’s tone remained indifferent as he replied, “It’s no trouble”

A glimmer of excitement sparkled in Emily’s eyes She had never experienced riding in such a luxurious

car before. Without hesitation, she graciously entered and turned around, flashing a radiant smile.

“Thank you, Uncle!”

The words hung in the air, freezing both Chloe and Emily in their tracks.

Joseph raised his eyebrows and asked, “Uncle?”

“Well… my uncle often picks me up. I’ve grown accustomed to calling him as such, haha,” Emily

explained, her voice tinged with embarrassment.

“Jojo, it’s the weekend today. Shall we go out for a meal?” Chloe asked as she latched onto Joseph’s

arm, her eyes curved with a smile.

Joseph’s attention was drawn to her, and he playfully pinched her nose. “All you think about is food.”

“All I’ve been eating at the hospital is bland food. I want something spicy! Is that okay?”

“No spicy food, but everything else is fine.”

“Yay! You’re the best, Jojo!”

For the rest of the journey, Emily remained silent, sitting quietly like a child who had done. something

wrong.

“Bye, Chloe.”

“Bye!” Chloe reassured Emily with a glance, signaling that everything was fine.

In the mall, Chloe pulled Joseph into a restaurant. Since Joseph did not allow her to have any spicy

food, she had no other choice but to opt for other dishes. Though she felt a bit disappointed for not

being allowed to have the spicy food, Chloe reminded herself of the close call with Emily and suddenly

found the food before her appealing. If Joseph were to find out that she mistook him for someone at the

bar, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Joseph handed over the menu. “Why are you spacing out?”

Chuckling, Chloe replied, “Oh, nothing. I’ll order for us. What would you like?”

“Anything is fine,” Joseph said.

As they finished their meal, Chloe happily patted her full belly. Joseph, on the other hand, had

consumed little, busy serving her throughout the entire meal. Her stomach was full, and her heart

warmed by the unexpected act of chivalry from the usually despicable man.

“Aren’t you going to eat more? Won’t you get hungry later tonight?”

Joseph looked at her with faint doubt and said, “It’s fine. The food doesn’t taste good, don’t you. think?”

“So, you were serving me because you found it unappetizing?”

“Yeah, I had nothing better to do,” Joseph nonchalantly replied.

“Jeez…”

Joseph asked indifferently, “Are you full?”

“Yes, I’ll go get the bill. I have a coupon for this place, 50 dollars off for every 200 spent,” Chloe said as

she stood up to head to the cashier.

Joseph’s mouth twitched. “You don’t have to be so frugal. The supplementary card I gave you has no

spending limit.”

If others were to find out, they might mistakenly believe he was mistreating her.

“No, we should save where we can and spend wisely. Money doesn’t come easy,” Chloe insisted,

proceeding to the front counter with her wallet.

Not long after Chloe left, a well-off woman approached Joseph, fluttering her eyelashes seductively.

“Handsome, I have money too. I can afford anything you want. How about spending the night with me?”

Joseph glanced disdainfully at her and coldly retorted, “Go away.”

“Hey, why are you being so rude? Even though I’m not as young as that woman over there, I’m

definitely wealthier than her. As a mature man in this profession, shouldn’t you be immune to others’

opinions?” the woman retorted.

The woman mistakenly assumed that Joseph was an escort. It was understandable given the

circumstances. Chloe was paying for the meal, and Joseph had spent the entire time serving her

without eating much himself.

To the woman, this seemed like a typical scenario of an escort being doted on by a woman. She could

not fathom any other explanation for Joseph’s behavior.

“Get out of my sight. I won’t say it a third time,” Joseph responded, his air of arrogance captivating the

woman’s interest.

She haughtily pulled out a wad of cash from her purse, the muscles on her face twitching as she

flaunted her wealth. “Is this enough?”

Joseph’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, his anger on the verge of exploding. After all, he had no qualms

about hitting a woman. xo.com fast update

“What are you doing?” Chloe angrily rushed back to the table, having overheard the woman’s

derogatory remarks. She stuffed all the cash on the table into the woman’s hands and said, “Put away

your dirty money. No one cares about it. Besides, my husband is much wealthier than you. He owns a

company, luxury cars, and even consecutive number plates. Do you have any of that?!”

After saying that, she grabbed Joseph’s hand and walked out of the restaurant without looking back.

Joseph stared at her beautiful profile, feeling inexplicably pleased.

Once they were outside the restaurant, Chloe continued grumbling, her lips in a slight pout from

dissatisfaction. Joseph’s smile widened, finding her protective nature adorable.

“Say ‘husband’ one more time.”

Blushing, Chloe rolled her eyes at him and said, “I refuse.”

“Are you shy?”

He was right. Although she had a sharp tongue and could be fierce, she easily became embarrassed

when it came to expressing her feelings.

Suddenly, Chloe thought of something and fixed her clear eyes on him. “I can call you that, but I have

one question for you first.”

Leisurely adjusting his tie, Joseph responded, “Go ahead.”

“Between Xavia and me, you chose me, right?”

Joseph raised an eyebrow, leaning forward slightly to meet Chloe’s gaze. There was a captivating

magnetism in his voice as if he were destined to command attention and inspire others. When he

spoke with such earnestness, it was impossible for anyone to resist.

“Xavia hasn’t been in my consideration for the past five years. Now, it’s only you.”

Chloe’s heart raced uncontrollably. “Then, what’s our relationship now
