“Of course, it’s not that simple. Joseph is hard to deal with.”
“I thought it wasn’t a loss for you even if Joseph isn’t Jake’s uncle since he ticks a lot of boxes. I finally
understand your pain.”
Chloe drank some water to quench her thirst. “Yeah, I would’ve been frank with him and gotten a

“Mm-hmm.”
“Okay, I’ll text you the address.”
After Chloe ended the call, Emily asked, “Is Joseph coming to pick you up?”
Chloe nodded. “Yeah.”

when he arrived.
