Chapter 175
A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband
Chapter 175 Ever since returning to Medo, Max had been paying close attention to Chloeâs movements.
As a result, the reply Joseph received was that Young Madamâs movements had never been updated.
She was still busy with the various big matters of the hotel, and even had never left Medo.
Joseph sat in the office and looked at the city scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window. There was a thick cloud of suspicion between his eyebrows.
Seeing that Adaâs wedding date was getting closer and closer, was she not in a hurry at all? Or had she secretly given up on Alexa and was plotting something else?
The incidents at Rose Manor and the last time Aubree was arrested, as well as the interruption in Balin City, have made Joseph, this towering and resolute man, somewhat wary of Chloe, this little woman.
To be reasonable, how could there be a man who was afraid of his wife after getting married?
At this time, the internal phone rang, and Joseph pressed the hands-free button.
âMr. Sawle, Young Master Anderson is here to see you,â The secretary said respectfully.
âLet him in.â
As soon as Vincent entered the presidentâs office, he followed up with his own home. He lazily fell on the sofa, almost falling off his shoes.
âHow many times do you want me to say it? You are not allowed to come to me without permission. Do you think I am as idle as you?â Joseph did not even lift his eyelids, only lowering his eyebrows to sign the document.
âTsk tsk. Who do you think you are? Napoleon or Hitler?â
âBut you donât say. My mother watched a palace drama a while ago. I think you are indeed a little similar to Napoleon. You are both heartless pig trotters.â Vincent crossed his legs and laughed mockingly.
âIf you have something to say, say it now. If you have nothing to do, get lost.â Joseph buckled up the pen and straightened his back.
âZoey has come back, right? My mother invited you to my house for a meal.â
âIâve been a little busy recently. If this matter with Ada is not settled, I really donât have the mood to join a dinner party.â âTell me, how long has it been since you last saw your godmother? My mother said she was going to cook for you as soon as she came back from overseas. You really did not give her any face!â:
âItâs a shame that my mother still remembers what you like to eat the most. The ingredients are all prepared. If you donât come, how disappointed will she be?â Vincent pouted.
Joseph pursed his lips and said gently, âOkay, Iâll go.â
âHey, thatâs right! Zoey will be happy to know that you are coming. Donât think that you donât have much popularity in your family.
In our Anderson family, you are a group pet!â Seeing that he agreed, Vincent was immediately in high spirits.
Joseph suddenly remembered what happened that night in the concert hall and remembered Zoeyâs excessive intimacy with him. He immediately felt both psychological and physical discomfort.
Back then, he held Zoeyâs hand and walked around the park because Zoey was only ten years old at that time. She was a cute little girl, and she was the younger sister of his best brother. He regarded her as his younger sister.
But now, although she was young, she was still an adult. She could be insensible, but he couldnât be careless.
So he thought for a moment, and his thin lips just opened. âZoey, she...â
At this time, a knock on the door interrupted him.
Come in âMr. Sawle! You asked me to investigate the relationship between the Young Madam and Jerome, I have also checked the relationship between Xavy Group and Thorp Group!â Max held the information in his hand and walked in with his signature loud voice.
Vincent blinked his phoenix eyes. â...â
Joseph almost broke the pen. His face turned dark.
Eh... Mr, Mr. Sawle, you have a guest. Then, Iâll take my leave first. You can chat...â Max smiled awkwardly and retreated step by step.
âTsk, Fm not an outsider since Iâm already here.â
Vincent smiled evilly and picked up a tangerine from the fruit plate. As he peeled it, he glanced at Josephâs unhappy expression.
âWhat? In the end, you are still unwilling and want to chase her back?â
âEat your oranges. Donât ask what you shouldnât ask.â Joseph lowered his eyes, but his heart skipped a beat.
âWhy shouldnât I ask? It was me who chased after Chloe first. You and that little white face with kidney deficiency had to wait in line!â Vincent threw a piece of tangerine meat into his mouth and chewed it hard.
âYou chased her first. Whatâs the use of it?â
Josephâs dark eyes flashed with a hidden desire for possessiveness. He tightened his lips and gritted his teeth. âIn the end, she still married me, but she could never belong to you.â
âF*ck, why are you showing off here? Youâre just a divorced man!â
Vincent really wanted to throw the orange in his hand at his face. His eyes widened. âIf you have the ability to separate from Chloe, why donât you have the ability to chase her back? Whatâs the use of sending Max out to investigate these broken things?â
âWhen you finish grinding here, she and Jerome will have a bunch of kids!â
Josephâs heart trembled, but he still said coldly, âWho told you that I want to chase after Chloe? I checked their relationship because Chloe stole another project of mine and cooperated with Jerome. This may affect some of Sawle Groupâs subsequent arrangements.â
âHehe, okay, what you say is what you say. You are always stubborn.â Vincent sneered and threw a piece of orange peel at him.
Joseph reached out to catch it, his handsome face turned white with anger, and the orange peel was crushed.
Max, who was at the side, tried hard to hold back his laughter, and said with force, âMr. Sawle, Young Madam and Jerome donât seem to have any special relationship.â
âIn the past three years, Young Madam has been by your side. Other than you, there is no one else in her eyes. In the past ten years, I didnât find out anything about Young Madam and Xavy Group.â
When Joseph heard this, his face turned slightly better.
It seemed that Chloe had not been taken down by Jerome yet. It should be, it was just that boyâs wishful thinking.
But a few days ago, I found out that Director Xavier brought two unmarried sons, Patt and Jerome, to Sea Gate. They should have gone to visit Director Thorp.
Combined with the relationship between Thorp family and Xavier family... Director Xavier couldnât have intentionally allowed his two sons to marry Thorp family, right?
Marriage?
Joseph and Vincent were both stunned!
They were of the same age and were of equal social status. They were childhood sweethearts and had a long history...
No matter how one looked at it, it was a match made in heaven, perfect and fitting!
An earth-shaking sense of crisis swept towards Joseph in an instant. It was unstoppable and unavoidable.
âItâs over.â
Vincent looked meaningfully at Josephâs slightly red eyes and laughed frivolously, âEven if that person surnamed Xavier is in a hurry to stick to my goddess, as the saying goes, a strong woman is afraid of a pestering man.â
This Director Xavier once again lowered himself and personally went to the door to talk about marriage. The father and son had a set of combination fists. If Director Thorp pressured him again, it would be hard to say if Chloe would agree.
A certain manâs face was cold as snow.
âAhaha, aiya, it wonât be long before youâre going to attend your ex-wifeâs wedding. Donât you guys have a close relationship with each other?â Vincent teased him while eating the orange.
âImpossible. Chloe canât listen to the arrangements of her family and choose a business marriage!â Joseph said in a hoarse voice.
It was even more impossible for her to like Jerome. How could a woman who lived with a lion dance with a wolf?
âWhoa! So sour!â
âVincent!â Joseph narrowed his eyes.
âTangerine, I said itâs so sour. Why are you in such a hurry?â
At night, Joseph followed Vincent to Anderson family as they had agreed.
Although he was already very familiar with Anderson family and had recognized Madam Anderson as his godmother since he was a child, he was not lacking in etiquette. He still prepared valuable gifts for his elders. They were all high-quality supplements that were beneficial to his body.
Madam Anderson also doted on Joseph. The table was full of good dishes. 80 percent of them were what Joseph liked to eat, and 20 percent was what Zoey liked.
âMom, your bias is too exaggerated!â
Vincent held the fork and pouted gloomily, âThe dishes I asked you to cook before I left were all ignored by you. Itâs said that you forgot your mother after marrying a wife. Itâs too heartbreaking for you to have Joseph forget your own child!â
âYouâve already eaten my dishes for twenty years. Joseph doesnât always stay by my side. Of course, I have to treat him well.
You donât have to compare this.â
âJoseph, these are all your favorites. Eat more.â Madam Anderson was very happy to see Joseph.
âThank you, godmother.â Joseph responded with a smile and picked up his fork.
âSecond brother, eat more!â
Zoey deliberately chose a seat next to Joseph and used her fork to pick up the food. âThis dish and this one are personally made for you, quickly try it!â
However, her fork did not even touch Josephâs plate before they were blocked in the air by his hands, causing her to freeze.
âThank you, I will do it myself.â
