Jojo and Coco’s Unexpected Love By Aurora Summers Chapter 36

Chapter 36 What Was Once Precious Is Now Meaningless

It seemed that Ava was still proficient in twisting the truth.

“These are

Ignoring her sister, Chloe placed a bag on the table and said in a flat tone, all the jewelry and clothes you gave me. The dolls and such are at the Johnsons’.”

Ava grabbed Chloe’s hand and asked worriedly, “Where have you been staying the past few days?”

“Does it matter?”

“I asked Em and she said you haven’t been at her place.” Ava bit her lip, her voice thick with concern. “You should come. It’s not safe for a girl to stay outside alone.”

Jake knew a thing or two about Chloe’s involvement with an older man and a mixture of disdain and disappointment filled his heart. On one hand, he felt responsible for her downfall, but on the other, he felt she should not just give up on herself even though their relationship did not work out.

“Ava’s right. It’s not right for a girl to be alone. Go back home,” Jake chimed in and said in a preachy tone.

Chloe was speechless. “Is there something wrong with you guys?”

After all they had done, it was audacious of them to interfere in her personal affairs.

“How could you say such a thing? We’re just worried about you,” Jake scolded her.

“I didn’t ask for your concern.” Chloe blinked her innocent eyes, almost writing “Mind your own business” on her face.

Ava wanted to say something more, but Chloe did not give her the chance and interjected, “I’ve returned your things. Please don’t contact me again. Thank you.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she got up and left.

“Chloe, I’m so disappointed in you!” Jake’s angry voice came from behind her.

Ignoring him, Chloe calmly exited the cafe and aimlessly wandered around the vicinity, knowing Joseph would arrive soon. After walking for a while, she estimated that he would be back soon, so she turned back in the direction of the cafe.

As Chloe approached the cafe, she witnessed Ava and Jake discarding the bag that held the jewelry he had given her by the roadside. Ava even offered a tissue to Jake to wipe his hands with as though they had touched something dirty.

Initially, Chloe was unfazed, but as she saw the gifts that Jake had given her in the past being tossed away so nonchalantly, she felt as if their precious memories together had been ruthlessly abandoned. After all, those memories represented some of the happiest moments of her life.

Suddenly, indescribable anger and grievance surged through Chloe’s heart, overwhelming her and making it difficult for her to take even one step.

Meanwhile, Jake and Ava had already left in their car.

Chloe walked over to the scattered trinkets on the ground. There were rings, keychains, and the necklace that Jake had personally woven for her. She picked them up one by one, handling them with the utmost care, almost as if she was bidding them a heartfelt farewell.

From a black Rolls-Royce parked on the side of the road, Joseph sat inside and observed her intently. Nobody knew how long he had been there.

Despite feeling unhappy, Chloe did not forget her main goal to become Joseph’s real wife. She composed herself and looked around before fishing out her phone to call him.

“Jojo, are you done? When are you coming over?” she asked.

“I’m here,” he replied.

Chloe was taken aback. “What? Where?”

“Look across the street.”

Sitting in the passenger seat, Chloe looked at the man next to her with a puzzled

expression. “Jojo, was there some problem at work? You seem like you’re in a bad mood.

”

“Nope,” he replied.

“Then what’s wrong? If you have something that’s bothering you, you can let it out. Talking about it will make you feel better,” she said.

Joseph kept his gaze fixed on the road ahead, his eyelashes drooping slightly and casting a shadow over his eyes.

“What about you? Why don’t you talk about what’s bothering you?” he asked.
