    Noah tilted his head and replied calmly, “I guess so.


    Joseph chuckled, his cold eyes seemingly prating all things.


    As the banquet proceeded, Ava and Calvin were nowhere to be seen. Chloe found this rather peculiar.


    After all, they had made the effort toe all this way, so it seemed strange for them not to show up


    just because of some incident. Given Calvin’s seemingly special rtionship with the Sullivans, should


    he not be more concerned about this event?


    Desmond stayed for a moment, exchanging pleasantries with the others before turning to Joseph and


    asking about Harold’s condition.


    “Well, it’s inevitable for people to be this way as they grow older. We worry about our children and


    future generations. Just like Harold, I’m putting all my hopes on Noah now,” Desmond remarked.


    Joseph nodded. “Now that our two families are cooperating, I’ll take care of him in the future. Please


    rest assured, Mr. Desmond.”


    Unless there were any unforeseen circumstances, Noah would solely inherit the Sullivans’ assets.


    Despite his young age and not having graduated from school yet, he had been involved in business


    from a young age.


    However, Desmond still felt that Noah needed someone to support him. Since the Sullivans had the


    intention of establishing a good rtionship with Joseph, he had no reason to decline.


    Desmond was satisfied with Joseph’s response and shed a smile at him.


    Meanwhile, on the other side, Chloe engaged in a lively conversation with a real estate tycoon. The


    gentleman admired her courage and unique insights, leading them to exchange contact information.


    By chance, Chloe mentioned the ident involving construction site workers, and the gentleman kindly


    warned her, “When idents happen at construction sites, it’s often due to insufficient funds and the


    purchase of substandard safety equipment. Keep an eye out. There might be some misappropriation of


    funds.”


    No one would neglect their own life, especially those engaged in high-risk industries. Of course, there


    were also a small number of people who harbored a sense of luck and were too Jazy to use safety


    ropes.


    Chloe was taken aback by this revtion and nodded seriously. “I’ll keep that in mind.”


    As the clock struck nine, the event came to a close. Everyone grew tired of toasting and exchanging


    pleasantries. Some headed to the third floor to rest, while others summoned their drivers to take them


    home.


    Chloe was prepared to leave. Before her departure, she scanned the hall but found no trace of Joseph.


    Noah was assisting Desmond back to his room. She did not want to bother them and so followed a


    staff member to the exit since the venue was vast and a little challenging to


    navigate.


    The attendant offered attentively, “Miss, if you give me your car keys, I can bring the car around for


    you.”


    Chloe maintained herposure and replied, “I don’t have a car. I’ll get a cab. Is there a ce around


    here for me to get one?”


    The attendant hesitated briefly before regainingposure. “Certainly. Allow me to escort you there.”


    After walking a few steps, her phone buzzed inside her purse.


    “Where are you?” came Joseph’s calm voice.


    “I don’t know,” she replied.


    “Come to the garage.”


    “Why should I?” Her tone remained calm. Gone was the pleading Chloe.


    “Stop acting ignorant. I helped you just now, so it’s time for you to repay the favor,” Joseph said, his


    voice tinged with annoyance, “If I don’t see you in ten minutes, you’ll bear the consequences.”


    As Chloe listened to the disconnected tone on her phone, she stood motionless for a few moments.


    Then, she turned toward the attendant and requested, “Please take me to the garage. Thank you.”


    Joseph had exchanged his vehicle for a new sports car, emanating an aura of dominance with its


    commanding ck hue. Chloe possessed limited knowledge about cars, but she could sense that this


    one had impressive speed.


    “What’s the matter?” She cut straight to the point, her tone distant.


    Furrowing his brows, Joseph’s gaze turned icy and something inside of him cracked. He disliked her


    calm demeanor as if she were treating him like a nobody.


    “Grandpa is hungry and wants to eat a meal you’ve prepared,” he replied.


    Chloe was taken aback. “Your grandfather is hungry thiste in the evening?”


    “He got hungry again,” Joseph replied.


    “Fine, I’ll go home and


    a half.”


    prepare some food for him, but it’ll take some time. About an hour and


    “No need. Prepare it at my house,” he said.
