Chapter 404 Just Kill Me

Chloe’s eyes flickered. ‘If Grandpa knew, he wouldn’t want to see both his grandsons get into a

fight. Just let them talk it out. If not, just let Joseph beat Jonathan to vent his anger as long as it’s

not out of the line.’

At last, she agreed to stay.

Jonathan, probably terrified of Joseph, reached in fifteen minutes. He even brought Preston along.

“Joe, Jon was insensible. Don’t fight about it with him. When he has the means after a while, he’ll

repurchase the house.”

“Repurchase it now.”

Joseph would not accept no for an answer. His black eyes were cold without even a hint of warmth.

Preston’s forehead was full of cold sweat. “We don’t have the money right now. What’s more, Jon

wouldn’t have sold the house if you had supported him in starting his business by giving him some

money.”

“Quit the board or repurchase the house. Pick one.

“What are you talking about? How disgraceful!”

Chloe and Nathan were sitting by the side, and Preston became displeased when embarrassed in front

of others. Hence, he rebuked Joseph and acted like Joseph’s elder.

“Joe, don’t be so stingy. No one had lived there for so many years, and the buyer didn’t despise it even

after someone died there. The buyer offered a reasonable price. At most, I’ll give you the money I got

from selling the house after I earn back the money in a few months. I’ll even give you 14 million as

interest. That’ll do, right?”

Chloe inevitably frowned. ‘What did he mean someone died in there? Isn’t that person his relative too?

The house was kept as a memento. But Jonathan sold someone else’s house and is acting like he was

wronged.’

Joseph emanated a dangerous aura as he narrowed his eyes. He pushed Preston away, who was

standing in front of Jonathan. “Repurchase the house today. Do you understand?”

Being forced, anxiety seized Jonathan. He roared, “If you want money, I don’t have it! If you want my

life-”

-But before he could finish his words, Joseph punched his face.

Jonathan became dazed from the punch and felt something wet around his nose. He took out his

phone and checked his appearance. His nose was bleeding.

“You punched me?!” he screamed furiously. “I’ll get you!” He rushed toward Joseph.

The two broke out into a fight. Joseph was on top of Jonathan throughout the process, having the

upper hand. He punched Jonathan repeatedly, and Jonathan’s face became flushed and badly swollen.

An unspeakable feeling engulfed her. She was filled with bitterness and a tinge of ridiculous

sweetness. She was pregnant, so she did not dare to eat too much spicy food. She just ate enough to

satisfy her appetite.

Nathan had something on his mind, so he did not notice this. He looked toward Joseph when

Chloe had almost finished eating and asked heavily, “Who’s the one taking care of the real estate in

your family?”

“Most of them are under my name, but Grandpa has a few.”

“How about that one your late father stayed at?”

Joseph’s eyes sank. “What’s wrong?”

Nathan touched his nose. “I saw someone put the house on sale online, and it was sold…”

Joseph’s brows knitted together tightly. The backs of his hands were full of bulging veins. The

atmosphere dropped to a freezing point.

He called Jonathan in front of them. “Come to Fairlight within twenty minutes. Otherwise, your father

will cease to be a board member too.”

Chloe’s heart sank. She knew that a family dispute was about to break out. However, she was not in a

position to meddle.

She was about to grab her bag but Nathan beat her to it.

“Hey…”

Nathan lowered his voice. “Joe’s father passed away in that house. I’m worried that he’ll lose control

and deal with Jonathan cruelly.”

Joseph prohibited others from entering that house but Jonathan had secretly sold it.
