Chapter 380 Harold Wants to See Xavia
Chloe was overwhelmed by Joseph’s passionate kiss, perplexed by her inability to resist whenever he engaged her in such intimate moments.
Joseph, well–versed in such encounters, naturally took the lead, and soon they found themselves in the bedroom. As they sank into the soft bed, Chloe’s mind suddenly flashed back to her dream from the previous night, snapping her back to reality. Gasping for air, she forcefully pushed him away.
“No, you can’t touch me.”
While previous instances might have been unavoidable, she now possessed the refuse, and she had to stand firm. She must not betray her principles. power to
Joseph’s gaze burned with intense desire. His slightly calloused fingers caressed her lips as he said, “You should listen to your inner voice.”
Chloe froze, trying to regain her breath. “What do you mean?”
“Just moments ago, you were quite enthusiastic.”
The mouth might lie, but the body would not.
The tips of her ears blushed crimson as she glared at him, turning her head away with a hint of shyness. “I have no idea what you’re talking about. I’m going to sleep.”
“How can you give up halfway? Those who start the fire should put it out. Haven’t you heard that phrase before?”

Joseph’s scorching gaze made no attempt to hide his desire for her. He also wondered why he was so captivated by her, and not just on a physical level.
Chloe’s heart raced uncontrollably under his gaze. ‘What’s going on with you, Chloe? Weren’t you already done with him? Why did you still harbor these feelings?‘
“Ms. Chloe, Mr. Noah is on the phone for you.”
The maid’s voice came from outside the door, snapping Chloe out of her daze. She swiftly broke free from Joseph’s embrace and hurriedly left the room.
Joseph listened to the conversation downstairs, his eyes chillingly cold. Noah was undoubtedly doing this on purpose. As soon as he kicked Icarus out of their way, another one stepped in. The fact that Chloe possessed a unique talent for seducing men could not be denied.
“Coco, were you resting? Did I disturb you?” Noah asked from the other end of the line, his tone gentle.
“No, I just finished taking a shower and was about to sleep. What’s the matter?”
“I wanted to tell you that the bodyguard is safe now. However, he sustained severe injuries, so he won’t be able to continue in this line of work.”
Before parting ways, Chloe had asked Noah about the bodyguard’s condition. It was not difficult to see that the kidnapping had primarily targeted her. The bodyguard and Noah had indirectly suffered due to her involvement.
Upon hearing the news, she felt a mix of joy and worry. One’s greatest asset was having a healthy body. Although his life was saved, his future was lost.
“But don’t worry too much. Even though he can no longer serve as a bodyguard, Exotic Star offers a multitude of other positions. He won’t be short of job opportunities. He can stay and work here until old age without any problem.”

Chloe felt relieved. “That’s good. Please give him my regards.”
“Mhmm, you should go to bed early. Good night.”
“Okay, good night.”
Chloe returned to the upper floor and found Joseph was no longer there. She breathed a sigh of
relief and entered her own bedroom to rest.
At daybreak, Chloe, having had a light sleep, woke up early. In the courtyard, she spotted Harold exercising. She approached him and gently called out, “Good morning, Grandpa.”
Startled, Harold’s expression mirrored Patrick’s from the previous day. “Chloe? When did you get here?”
“Last night.”
Chloe thought for a moment and decided to inform him about the kidnapping incident. After all, it was better to hear it directly from her than from someone else.
Harold’s heart skipped a beat as his face sank. “This matter must be thoroughly investigated. I want to know who has the audacity to kidnap my beloved granddaughter–in–law!”
To dare offend both the Whitmans and Sullivans at the same time, one must either lack common sense or be a brainless thug. However, thugs would be no match for professional bodyguards. It seemed more likely that a formidable force was lurking in the shadows, observing and planning. Regardless of whether they would strike again in the future, without a proper investigation, this incident was like a time bomb, ready to explode for the second time at any moment.
Chloe nodded. “The police are taking this matter very seriously.”
Those individuals did not seem like ordinary troublemakers, and the masked woman’s words before fleeing did not feel like an empty threat. There was a high chance they would come back.
Harold pondered for a few seconds. “Sweetie, are you sure you haven’t offended anyone recently?”

“I see. Stay and have breakfast before you leave,” he suggested.
Chloe could not bear to refuse and agreed, “Grandpa, what would you like to eat? I’ll cook today.” 1
“You decide. Anything you make is better than the house chef’s.”
“Hehe, Grandpa, you really flatter me.”
As Harold watched Chloe enter the kitchen, the smile on his face instantly vanished. He called for Patrick and gave him an instruction.
“I want to see Xavia.”
Patrick was puzzled. “Xavia? May I know why?”

“Since Chloe hasn’t offended anyone at her workplace, it’s only Xavia who might meddle in her personal life.”
Patrick frowned. “But does Xavia have the courage and capability to do such a thing?”
“Go and make the arrangements. Once I see her, I’ll know.”
“Okay, sir.”
