Chapter 500 They’ve Fallen Out
Preston’s face became as dark as the bottom of a burnt kettle, and Octavia looked distressed. Was Joseph destined
to kick them out?
“Tell Jon to get back here. How could he still be in the mood to go galavanting when we’re about to lose everything
we have?!”
Octavia called Jonathan, but he told her some fantastic news.
“Mom, our chip research was a success. I’ll be receiving 300 million dollars as a bonus.”
Overwhelmed with excitement, Octavia could hardly speak coherently, “This is great! You truly are wonderful, my
son!
Preston snatched the phone and said, “Hurry up and come back. You’re now our only hope of taking Joe down.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOctavia hesitated for a moment and said, “But dear, 300 million dollars is nothing to Joe.”
“You fool,” Preston berated her exasperatingly, “With that much money, we can do a lot. We don’t have to confront
him head-on.”
After watching the live broadcast, Chloe called Joseph. However, he seemed too busy to answer her call.
Worried about Harold’s condition, Chloe went to the hospital and saw Patrick.
“Patrick, where’s Grandpa?”
A hint of relief flashed across Patrick’s eyes as he said, “He’s resting inside the ward right now.
“Can I go in and see him?”
“Well… Mr. Harold said he doesn’t want to see you or Mr. Joseph for now.”
Chloe’s heart skipped a beat. ‘Oh my… It seems like they really have fallen out.”
“Actually, no matter how harsh Joseph’s words were, he still cares about Grandpa. I’ll give him
a few days to calm down then bring him to see Grandpa.”
Patrick hesitated for a moment before saying, “I don’t think you should come.”
Chloe’s eyes widened in disbelief, “Is it that serious?”
Patrick did not answer her question directly and said, “Mr. Harold wants you to take good care of yourself. If you
feel that Mr. Joseph is treating you badly, don’t hold it in. If you need to vent, then vent. I have to go now. I need to
take care of Mr. Harold.”
Chloe’s eyes were filled with a tinge of bitterness as she watched Patrick walk away. She could not help but call out,
“When Xavia’s amniocentesis results come out next month, can I see Grandpa then?”
Patrick pondered for a while before nodding. He wondered how far Joseph’s plan would have progressed by next
month. Regardless, Harold would still show himself and witness the scene where Xavia would stay with or leave the
Whitmans.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFeeling lost and dejected, Chloe left the hospital. This scene was observed by Vanya hiding in the shadows, who
then reported to Otto with satisfaction, “Joseph and Harold had a big fight. Harold even refused to see Chloe.”
“Don’t get too excited. Keep an eye on the situation.”
“I know. Joseph’s reputation has dropped significantly and everyone is criticizing him.”
“Hah, this is just the beginning.”
After leaving the hospital, Chloe stood by the roadside as she gazed at the flowing traffic dazedly.
Just a few days ago, they had been sitting together, laughing and chatting over a meal. How could things have
changed so quickly?
Did Harold not adore her? Why would he refuse to see her?
Though she did not know what Joseph had said to Harold to cause such a drastic change in their relationship, she
was certain that most of what Otto had said that day was true-Joseph’s
mother was still alive.
Unconsciously, Chloe found herself standing in front of Fairlight. Reporters crowded the
entrance, swarming her as soon as they spotted her, clamoring to get a piece of the story.
