Chapter 551 Natalie and Noah’s Arranged Marriage

The man had no intention of letting the director go.

As the director attempted to flee, the man grabbed him by the coat, covered his mouth, and dragged

him into the fire escape. Encumbered by age and frailty, the director could not contend with the man’s

strength and was mercilessly dragged to the rooftop. Following a moment of shock and a piercing

scream, the director crashed heavily to the ground and died.

Later that evening, an announcement circulated, declaring that the director had leaped from the

building due to the immense pressure of life. Spencer read the announcement, feeling fear, self-blame,

and unease flooding him.

‘Will I be the next to die? Should I confess to Joseph? Maybe he’ll forgive me and let me go…. No, no,

it can’t possibly be my turn. I’ve always been obedient. My wife and children are still in their hands… I

can’t back down.’

Three days later, Chloe returned to the country. Upon touchdown, she texted Joseph.

[The plane has landed and I’ll be out in about ten minutes.]

She grabbed her luggage and boarded the shuttle bus. Upon exiting the airport, she instantly spotted

Joseph. His towering height of 1.8 meters made him stand out from the crowd, while his handsome

features exuded a frosty allure. When his gaze met hers, it instantly softened, and the rigid aura around

him eased slightly. His finely sculpted eyebrows and captivating eyes made him the center of attention,

drawing glances from women passing by.

Chloe and Joseph had missed each other dearly after not meeting for about a month.

Joseph opened his arms, his lips curling into an enchanting smile as he said, “Come here and let me

hold you.”

Chloe was someone who loved a good-looking man. She felt her heart race and could not hide her

excitement. She pushed her luggage to Abigail and threw herself into his arms.

Joseph embraced her tightly, his voice carrying a magnetic huskiness as he asked, “Did you miss me?”

Chloe raised her head, her eyes clear as she met his gaze. “I did. And what about you? Did you miss

me too?”

“No,” Joseph said, teasing her.

Upon hearing his response, Chloe’s fair and delicate face wrinkled, and she reached out to pinch the

flesh on his waist. “What did you say?”

“I meant that…” Joseph leaned in, closing the distance between them while fixing his intense gaze on

her, In a voice that could drown someone, he softly murmured, “I missed you very very much. Will you

make it up to me tonight?”

Chloe blinked, her soft earlobes turning red as she stuttered, “N-No! I-I will not be making up for

anything!”

It had been over three months since they had been intimate, and it was only natural for a man to feel

such desires. However, she could not make it up to him. The first trimester had passed and as long as

both parties were careful, they could do the deed, but Joseph did not know that she was pregnant. He

appeared refined and composed on the surface, but he was a beast between the sheets-unrestrained

and insatiable.

Joseph thought Chloe was joking and did not take her seriously. He chuckled and pulled her into his

embrace, leading her to the car. Gazing at their intertwined hands, a certain young man’s eyes burned

with a myriad of emotions.

The driver Noah’s luggage and politely said, “Sir, Mr. Desmond is waiting for you at home. Let’s head

back quickly.”

“Why is he waiting for me?”

“To arrange a meeting between you and Ms. Natalie.”

Noah stopped in his tracks, his eyes fixed pointedly on the driver.

The driver felt uneasy under Noah’s gaze and said, “It wasn’t my idea, sir…”

“Is she at the house?”

“Yes…”

“Let’s go.”

He could not avoid the matter of the arranged marriage. Since he had to face it sooner or later,

it was better to get there early and resolve it as soon as possible.
