Chapter 393 Are You an Idiot? I’m Worried About You!
Joseph’s anger transformed into a mocking smile, his lips curling with derision. “Yes, of course. I’m your senior.”
Noah’s expression stiffened, and he remained silent.
“What’s the relationship between Ava and Calvin?” Joseph asked, his eyes seemingly capable of peering into the
depths of all things.
Noah found this amusing and said, “If you want to know, why don’t you ask Calvin directly? What does it have to do
with me?”
“Whether it’s Calvin, Ava, or even you, or perhaps the Sullivans, there must be a definite connection,” Joseph said,
his tone brimming with certainty.
Setting his jaw tightly, Noah replied, “Then go ahead and investigate.”
Joseph’s smile turned enigmatic, and a glimmer of confidence flickered across his handsome face. “I will.”
He realized that Noah was hiding something and that this situation was more complex than it seemed. It was crucial
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto conduct an investigation and warn Chloe. After all, a polished facade could be misleading, and he suspected that
Noah might have ulterior motives for getting close to her.
After Noah left, Joseph came.
Chloe felt a sense of unease. ‘Does Joseph also know about my pregnancy?’ The calmness she had just regained
was suddenly replaced with inexplicable anxiety as the thought surfaced in
her mind.
“You went to the station this morning?” Joseph sat on Chloe’s chair, casually crossing his long, slender legs. His gaze
swept over her with a chilling and oppressive aura.
Upon hearing the question, Chloe tensed up. “Tyson must have told him. Since they’re relatives, it made sense that
Tyson would tell him about it.’
Joseph’s displeasure grew as she seemed lost in thought. He barked coldly, “Speak up.”
“Since you already know, why are you asking me?” Chloe replied.
Joseph’s gaze fixed on her. “Is there really something wrong with your health?”
Lucas had gone to the station, but Tyson refused to disclose anything. Joseph did not know why Tyson refused to
give him Chloe’s blood report, and his initial reaction was that something had happened to her. He immediately
canceled his afternoon meetings and hurried here.
Chloe hesitated for a moment. “You don’t know?”
“If I knew, why would I ask you?” Joseph’s gaze remained fixed on her.
“I…I’m fine. Just a little anemic, nothing serious.”
“Is that so?”
She dared not meet his gaze and forced herself to appear calm. “Yes. What sick person would have a complexion
as good as mine?”
Joseph looked at her, asserting his dominance. “Whether or not you’re sick is for the doctors to determine. Let’s go
to the hospital for a check-up.”
“No! I have a lot of work to do. Why would I go to the hospital for no reason? You should go and take care of Xavia.
She’s having pregnancy complications.” Chloe’s voice suddenly grew louder, her body tensed as every hair stood

He suspected that she had been involved with someone else before, and it would be natural for him to deduce that
this child was not his. She was worried that he would force her to abort the child. Besides, even if he believed it was
his, what would happen in the future? Compete with Xavia for his affection? She did not want that nauseating kind
of life.
“Chloe!” Joseph’s pitch-black eyes flickered with wounded emotions. Abandoning all his pride, he said his next words
earnestly, “Are you an idiot? I’m worried about you.”
Chloe’s heart trembled upon hearing those words, and she was tongue-tied. She acknowledged that she was no
saint, and even at this moment, she could not fully detach herself from the man standing before her. Yet, he was
not the sole focus of her existence. She refused to orbit around him as if he were the sun, holding the center of her
universe.
After calming herself, self-mockery filled Chloe’s heart. She raised her head and looked at Joseph defiantly,
“Worried about me? Can you handle two women?”
She was certain that Xavia had said the same thing before.
Joseph met her mockery-filled gaze, and suddenly all emotions vanished. Had he ever spoken so genuinely to a
woman before? She was the first one, yet she was behaving ungrateful.
He regained his indifferent demeanor. His thin lips curved in a cold and chilling smile as he said, “Indeed, I can’t.”
