Chapter 430 His Parents Had Been Very Loving

“You’ve been asleep for a very long time,” Joseph whispered in Chloe’s ear.

When his hot breath sprayed past her earlobe, she felt ticklish and blushed. “I was a bit tired

yesterday.”

While talking, she extended her hands to push him away. However, Joseph was quite strong and

steady, refusing to budge.

“It’s been a long time since we last had sex.”

Chloe became flabbergasted as she abruptly looked up at him but he appeared composed. His

handsome and bewitching face was a perfect gift from God. He had just woken up, so there was not

much fierceness in his black eyes. But the words he said were quite vulgar.

He had been suppressing his desires all night. When he saw her sleep soundly, he refrained from

touching her.

Chloe’s fair and palm-sized face turned red. “Who wants to do that with you? What kind of relationship

are we in? Who are you? Who are you to me?”

“You’re sleeping in my bed and in my arms. Tell me. What kind of relationship are we in?”

Chloe found it hard to refute him. “But I have yet to agree to reconcile with you. We’re still at the stage

where we’re still inspecting each other.”

“We can take what we’re going to do now as a part of the inspection.”

She then felt his hand sneak under her shirt and touch her body, climbing up her waist. She stiffened

and quickly stopped him. “No, I don’t want to do this.”

“Hmm?”

Chloe repeated solemnly, “I don’t want to do this.”

He stopped and stared at her closely. She thought he would be pinched her face and sized her up. “Are

you feeling unwell?”

angry but

but unexpectedly, he

Chloe felt slightly stunned before she nodded. “Yes, I’m feeling unwell.”

“Is it your period?”

“Period?” She was confused for a second before she was enlightened. She touched her nose.

No, I’m not.”

Joseph knitted his brows. “Doesn’t your period come at the beginning of the month?”

“How do you know?”

“We lived under the same roof. I’m not as slow-witted as you are.”

”

Even if one was slow, anyone who was thoughtful would remember such a thing.

Chloe’s gaze became slightly complicated as she looked at him. ‘Well, this scumbag is much better

than I thought.”

“Go wash up.”

After he said that, he turned and got out of bed to go downstairs. Before long, he came back with a

glass of hot milk.

“I’m not on my period.” When Chloe saw the glass of milk, she became slightly stupefied.

“I know. But you can drink it before your period. You’ll feel less pain then.”

“How do you know this?”

Joseph appeared composed. “I heard my dad say this to my mom when I was young.”

A well of emotion inevitably surged up within her. That warmth was not something she could gain. It

turned out that his parents were so loving to one another.

Her doubt inevitably escaped her. “What happened to your mom?”

‘Did his mother fall ill and pass away like mine?’

Joseph’s eyelashes drooped. One could not fully discern the emotions in his voice, but it was clearly

suffocating “She took her life.”

Chloe’s heart skipped a beat. ‘Both his parents took their lives… This is abnormal.’

“Drink this before it gets cold.” He pushed the glass of milk to her before he turned around to change

his clothes.

She sipped the milk slowly but was too absorbed in her complicated thoughts to taste it.

Harold had too much wine last night so he did not wake up before they left. When Chloe and Joseph

arrived at the crossroad, they separated as usual and made plans to visit Toto together at the animal

hospital that night.

Chloe immediately spotted the youth sitting in the waiting area the moment she entered the company.

He gazed out of the window while holding onto some documents and a box of candies. His clear eyes

were filled with a tinge of gloominess that was indiscernible if one did. not look at him closely.

This fact escaped Chloe. She called out, “Noah?”
