Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 90

Chapter 90 Challenging the Unchallengeable

Samuel was completely taken aback.

The Joseph he knew had no interest in women, let alone stepping forward in public and acting as a hero to save a damsel in distress. So why would he take the initiative to help this girl?

‘Hold on a moment! He didn’t just rescue her. He also admitted to being the young, handsome, and wealthy man this girl was talking about! It’s absurd how he’s willing to sacrifice his pride just to save her. That’s some extreme level of narcissism.

‘But hang on… Something’s not quite right here. Is this girl Chloe?’

Samuel’s suspicions were confirmed as he observed Joseph and Chloe.

Chloe and Adam turned their heads simultaneously. The man before them was clad in an expensive black suit. He was tall and slim with eyebrows that curved like crescents. The high position of his nose bridge and tightly pursed lips gave him a distant, almost unapproachable air. His deep-set eyes were dark and emotionless, yet his gaze was icy and cold as he stared at Adam.

The latter trembled visibly. His haughty demeanor disappeared the moment he saw the

man.

“M-Mr. Joseph, what brings you here?” he stammered.

Chloe was slightly taken aback. “You know him?”

Before Adam could answer, Alexander, the CEO of Patterson, emerged from the building and pushed him aside to warmly welcome Joseph.

Joseph gave a slight nod in acknowledgment, but his gaze remained fixed on Adam. It seemed to him that Adam had a lot of nerves to flirt with his woman when he was barely out of diapers.

“Mr. Samuel? What brought you here today too?” Alexander was surprised to see Samuel.

“I had some time today, so I came to discuss the case with you,” Samuel answered with

a smile.

Remembering the legal troubles his company had been facing lately, Alexander said, ” Oh, in that case, I won’t be of much help. I’ll have our legal department come out and talk to you.” Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Despite having spent a considerable amount of money on multiple lawyers to resolve the issue, none had been able to come up with a solution. Alexander was left with no choice but to turn to Samuel, even though he knew Samuel’s services came with a high price tag.

As he spoke, his secretary gestured for Samuel to follow her into the building.

Turning to Joseph, Alexander said, “Mr. Joseph, shall we go in as well?”

Joseph did not immediately respond, slowly retracting his gaze while replying noncommittally, “Okay.”

Alexander observed this subtle movement and threw Adam a glance, wondering how his son managed to get on Joseph’s bad side.

As Joseph walked past her, Chloe furrowed her brows, a hint of suspicion crossing her

face.

‘Could he really be doing business on such a large scale? He even has business with Patterson. But how is this possible? If memory serves me right, Jake’s uncle isn’t that

influential at all.’

“I want to have chicken cordon bleu tonight,” Joseph said, stopping next to Chloe.

Chloe had been cooking for him for so long that she instinctively agreed, “Okay, I’ll go to the market after work to buy some ingredients.”

But then she remembered the department dinner party tonight and slapped her forehead in frustration. “Oh gosh, I forgot that my department is having a dinner party tonight. You’ll have to take care of dinner yourself.”

Joseph’s eyebrows knitted ever so slightly but did not say anything.

In the meantime, Alexander perceived the bond between the two and a realization struck him. He cast a disapproving glare at Adam, admonishing him for daring to provoke someone as influential as Joseph, all the while lamenting his misfortune for having an inept son.

With a heavy heart, Adam hung his head low. He never expected Chloe to have ties to someone as prominent as Joseph. He did not know why his father was blaming him.

After they had walked into the building, Lily snapped herself out of her trance and asked excitedly, “Ms. Chloe, is that your boyfriend?”

“Nope,” Chloe replied.

“But you’re married!”

“Umm… Our relationship isn’t like what you think, Lily.”

Lily did not believe her and continued, “If you’re not in that kind of relationship, then what kind of relationship is it? Why else would you cook for him? You two must be

living together. You’re just too embarrassed to admit it, right?”
