Jojo and Coco’s Unexpected Love
Chapter 56 She Really Wanted to Hit Someone Right Now
After class, Chloe saw that Icarus was still there and asked, âWaiting for someone?â
âIâm waiting for my relatives. We have to attend a forum this afternoon,â he replied.
âOkay, goodbye then,â she said.
Icarus was dressed in a white casual suit, and his gold-rimmed glasses reflected a gentle light as he called out, âChloe.â
âYes?â Chloe turned her head.
âWhat kind of flowers do you like?â he asked sincerely.
âI donât like flowers,â she replied.
His smile froze and he fell silent for a moment.
âI see,â he said.
Chloe did not understand why he suddenly asked this question, but she was not going to stick around to find out.
However, she unexpectedly ran into Jake.
Holding a new set of car keys in his hand, he looked around. âDoes that old lover of yours stay in this area?â
This was the upscale villa area of Aesper.
âYou better watch your mouth,â Chloe said with disgust in her tone.
As time passed, Jakeâs true character became increasingly apparent to her, causing her to question what had initially drawn her to him.
âIf youâre afraid of others talking about what you did, then donât do it.â
âItâs none of your business. Donât be like Ava, biting people like a mad dog when you see them,â Chloe replied.
This reminded Jake of the incident a few days ago where he wrongly accused Chloe of stealing his family heirloom.
âMaking mistakes is something everyone does. Ava was just extremely worried when she discovered that my familyâs precious heirloom was missing. She didnât
Intentionally try to implicate you. You should take the higher road and forgive her,â
Jake said, âAva cried throughout the night after realizing that she had falsely accused you. Besides, didnât you make it out of the station unharmed?â
âGet the f*ck out of my face!â Chloeâs face trembled with anger.
âCoco, you never used to swear like this. Why have you changed? If itâs because of me and Iâve hurt you too much, Iâm willing to apologize. We canât be husband and wife, but we can still be friends or family. Iâll protect you like a good brother. You should leave that old man and stop angering your father,â Jake advised.
Chloe picked up a stone and weighed it in her palm. Gritting her teeth, she said with a sinister smile, âNot only have I learned how to curse, but I also want to hit you. Youâd better disappear or I wonât be able to control myself and will beat you until your skin. splits open.â
She was not joking. She really wanted to hit someone right now.
All of this was caused by Jake and Ava. How could they turn around and blame her?
In the past, Chloe thought that as long as she complied and endured, she could earn her fatherâs care and her familyâs harmony. But years had passed, and with each passing day, they just grew bolder and bolder, taking away all that she had held dear.
She had learned the hard way that compliance and endurance were useless. If she wanted what she desired, she had to stop at nothing and use any means necessary.
She was determined to make them all bow down and call her âAunt Chloe.â
Jake recoiled in fear and called her crazy before quickly running away. From a distance, Icarus saw Jake running away in panic.
âWhatâs got you running like youâre being chased by a ghost?â he asked, âYouâre getting married soon, so itâs high time you matured and stopped behaving so childishly.
Jake laughed awkwardly and suggested, âUncle Icarus, would you like to come to our house for dinner? My mom hasnât seen you in ages.â
âI canât. I have some business to attend to,â Icarus replied, handing him the keys to his seaside villa. âHave a good time with your wife.â
âThank you, Uncle Icarus.â
Ava had been wanting to spend quality time with Jake in a seaside villa as a post- engagement celebration. Since Jakeâs uncle owned one, he was planning to surprise her
with it.
âOh, by the way, my mom wanted me to tell you that youâre not getting any younger, and itâs time for you to settle down and start a family. She has someone in mind for you, and if youâre interested, sheâd like you to meet her,â Jake said.
âI have my sights set on someone already,â Icarus replied, leaving Jake in shock and delight.
âWho?â Jake asked eagerly.
