Chapter 457 Defending Her at the Press Conference
Joseph held Chloe’s hand and led her to the second floor. He then found a suitable spot and pressed down on her
shoulders. “Sit.”
She obediently sat. When she looked over the first floor, she saw Harold in a suit, easily answering the reporters’
questions.
“Firstly, Xavia will not be a part of the Whitman family. If you’re interested in the details, you can ask her. Secondly,
Chloe isn’t a homewrecker. She’s the granddaughter-in-law I’ve approved of though they’re divorced now. Thirdly,
I’ll seek legal help and sue those who continue to slander Chloe. She’s a good person. I’m at such an age now, so
I’m quite experienced. I won’t be mistaken.
“Even an honorable person has difficulties handling household affairs. It’s the same case with my family, but the
one thing I can guarantee is that I’ll be responsible for it as long as it’s a child of the Whitman family. I won’t let
them become a homeless child and suffer miserably.”

said.
‘Grandpa is holding a press conference to defend me and publicly take my side… What did I do to deserve this
kindness? I snuck into the Whitman family with a fake marriage, but he let bygones be bygones. He still treats me
the same as before.’
Joseph wiped away her tears with his fingers. “Are you satisfied?”
Chloe’s nose became rosy and her eyes were glistening with tears. “Yes, I am.”
“Stop crying. You look ugly.” He chuckled, which softened the iciness in his eyes. Even the sharp edges of his face
turned gentler.
“Let’s go to the family home and eat with Grandpa today.” She did not know how many times she could still go
there.
“Okay.” Joseph kissed her lips. “Whatever you wish.”
Blushing, Chloe pushed him away because she could not take it. “There are so many reporters down there. Don’t
do that…”
“They can’t see us. What’s more, it’s just a peck. Why are you blushing so much?” A mischievous light flashed past
his eyes. “What’s on your mind?”
“Nothing!” Chloe flared up in a rage out of shyness. After crying, her watery eyes set off her pitifulness and charms.
Even when she was angry, she appeared coquettish and pretty.
Swallowing, Joseph’s eyes turned dark. He forced himself to avert his gaze.
On their way to the family home, Joseph received a text from Xavia.
[Joe, my agent accidentally posted an announcement on Twitter to clarify things. I found it out immediately and
asked her to delete it.]
After a glance, he threw his phone aside and did not reply to her.
Chloe recalled the upcoming jewelry fashion show at the end of the week, so she brought it up.
Joseph snorted. “Did Noah invite you?”
“No, it was the designer of Exotic Star.”

“Why do you hold such a great hostility toward Noah?” Chloe blinked.
Joseph did not go straight to the point but beat around the bush. “He has a conflicting personality.”
“What are you trying to say?”
“While he’s in the university, the Sullivans hand one-third of Exotic Star to him to manage, but he gives off a
harmless and pure image. Isn’t it contradictory?”
It was the typical example of a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Chloe answered honestly, “A little.”
But she felt that it was normal. People were bound to possess some shrewdness.
At night, Chloe ate two servings of pasta. She found that her appetite had increased a lot after her pregnancy. She
surmised that she had to control herself. Otherwise, she would be much plumper at the later stage of her
pregnancy.
“Chloe, are you full?” Harold asked her kindly.
“Yeah, I am.”
“I’m glad to hear that.” Harold looked at Joseph. After pondering over it for a while, he said, I discussed with Joseph
about Xavia’s child and came up with a relatively win-win solution.
