Chapter 443 You Should Buy Her Flowers
For over ten minutes, Chloe remained silent, eavesdropping. Joseph seemed to have left since it was now quiet
outside. A chill pierced her heart. They had been dating for almost a year, but his patience toward her was still so
low.
Feeling disappointed, she lay on her bed, flashes of their past replaying in her mind. There was happiness, anger,
grief, sadness, and moments of feeling touched…
Her mother passed away early, leaving her to face verbal and physical abuse in the Johnson family from time to
time. Jake would sometimes bring her snacks or beautiful clothes. At that time, she was over the moon, feeling that
he was the one. But he cheated on her. Emily then became the only person who treated her kindly.
Slowly, Joseph became a part of her life. He spoke harsh words and was a fierce man, but sometimes, he was very

would remain hidden. However, he was also the one who caused her the deepest grief…
Confusion and helplessness engulfed Chloe.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. It was so unexpected that she jumped in fright, but her instinct told her it
was not Joseph.
“Is anyone home? I’m here to deliver furniture.”
Chole was stupefied. “I didn’t buy any furniture. Do you have the wrong address?”
“Are you Ms. Chloe?”
“Yes, I am…”
“Well, I got it right then. It’s to be delivered to this location. Please open the door. There’s a lot of stuff, and they’re
blocking the corridor.”
Chloe was very vigilant. She put on her slippers and looked through the peephole. A middle- aged man in a set of
work uniform was standing outside with a leather sofa, TV, dining chair, and other items behind him.
She hesitated for a while. “Can you tell me who ordered them?”
“Sure…” Rustling, he flipped open his notebook and replied, “It was someone named Lucas Anderson.”
Chloe was struck dumb on the spot. ‘It was Joseph. He bought them…’
“Miss, can we come in now?”
“Ah… Okay.”
Chloe collected her scattered thoughts and immediately opened the door to let the workers in. They moved in
essential items such as a sofa, coffee table, desk, and even a bean bag she really liked. After some time, her house
looked brand-new. It was now neat, clean, and familiar. She recognized the brand of the furniture-it was the same

When the workers had finished and left, Chloe remained rooted to the spot, feeling upset. Her eyes turned watery.
She walked to the bean bag and sat down, sinking into its soft sensation. At some point, she nestled there and
dozed off.
Some time passed before she was woken up by the sound of someone opening the door. As she opened her eyes,
Joseph was standing in the doorway. Their eyes met.
Chloe was moved. He was incredibly handsome as if he came out of a painting. He had long legs and a slim waist,
and at that moment, he was holding a bouquet of roses, staring at her intensely.
She found her voice and interrogated, “Where’d you get a key?”
“From Gabe.”
Gabriel even told him that a man who was denied entrance should at least bring a bouquet of flowers. He could not
show up empty-handed.
Chloe said, “I’ll sue him.” As a landlord, he had failed her.
“Are you still mad?” Joseph handed her the roses.
