    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Chloe stood to the side, eager for a good show.


    Joseph imed that the resort was the joint property of both Fairlight and Exotic Star, but


    Exotic Star had a bigger stake in it. So, Octavia’s statement would simply raise criticisms from Joseph.


    Octavia became tongue-tied upon seeing Noah, she did not want to be embarrassed in public either.


    She braced herself and blurted out, “How are two suites enough? Why didn’t you build more?”


    “That’s my business. If you want in, consider investing.”


    Octavia undoubtedly did not have the money to do this. Her face turned livid. “I was just giving a


    suggestion. Young people these days don’t even take advice from their elders.”


    “Who are you to do so? I don’t even know you. Why should I listen to anything you have to say?” Noah


    shot back, but he did not look mad. It looked like he did not know her at all.


    A lot of people came and went. Xavia felt awkward and was a little terrified of Noah, so she leaned in


    and whispered to Octavia, “Let’s just wait at the cafe as the receptionist suggested. Let’s not cause


    trouble for Joe. We don’t want people talking behind our backs.”


    Octavia’s heart skipped a beat, and she shot Chloe a nasty look before heading to the cafe with


    Xvi


    When Chloe saw the mean look, she felt very aggrieved. She had remained silent the whole time. Was


    she not allowed to simply enjoy the show?


    Noah and Chloe got into the elevator. Suddenly, she noticed a strand of white hair on his head. and felt


    like touching it.


    Noah blinked. “What’s up?”


    “You have a strand of white hair.”


    “Pull it out for me.” While talking, he moved closer and lowered his head.


    Joseph was swamped with work, so he did not check his phone. When he got into the car to go to the


    resort, his driver said to him, “Sir, your phone rang a few times. I think someone texted you.”


    Joseph simply grunted in response, his eyes closed. After a few moments, he took his phone out of his


    pocket. He had two texts: one from Lucas and the other from Chloe. Both were saying the same thing-


    Chloe had gone to Noah’s room to sketch designs.


    Joseph’s face darkened. ‘Noah’s taking advantage of my absence to get close to her. Lucas


    eals Borry for Chios


    knows Noah is not a nice man, but he let the dumbo go anyway.’


    “Step on It. Get to the resort in half an hour.”


    The driver was torn. “Sir, the journey usually takes an hour and a half.”


    “You can either drive faster or get out and let me drive. Pick one.”


    The driver replied, “I’ll make it happen.” Of course, he did not want to lose his job.


    They arrived at the resort at nine, and Joseph stormed toward the presidential suite with only one goal


    in his mind.


    Bam, bam, bam!


    He banged on the door, not bothering to be polite.


    Noah slowly opened the door. He had expected to see Joseph, so he smiled faintly. “Do you have to be


    in such a rush?”


    “I could say the same about you.”


    Noah had been using every chance he got while Joseph was away to get close to Chloe.


    “You’re wrong. Coco was the one who came to me this time.”


    This infuriated Joseph. He pushed Noah aside and walked into the room. At that moment, Chloe had


    just finished her drawing. When she looked up, she was surprised to see Joseph there, causing her


    eyes to go wide. “What are you doing here?”


    Joseph raised his brows gloomily. “Am I disturbing you? Didn’t want me toe or something?”


    Chloe was taken aback for a moment. “What nonsense are you talking about? I was just asking.


    “Let’s go.” Joseph was not going to take no for an answer, and he was not going to be nice


    about it either.


    Chloe frowned, recalling that he had some prejudice against Noah, so she tried to understand his


    behavior. She suppressed her emotions and said, “Wait. Let me give the drawing to Noah.”


    “Just leave it here. He can look at it himself.”


    But that was not the way to ask for a favor.


    When she insisted on it, Joseph could not tell if it was anger or jealousy, or both, that made his face


    even gloomier. He reached out and grabbed her wrist, trying to drag her out of the room.


    His grip hurt Chloe.


    Seeing her in pain, Noah felt sorry for her. “Mr. Joseph, you should be gentler with women.


    “Feeling sorry for her?” Joseph’s face was impassive, but he radiated cold anger.


    That question brought a drastic change to Chloe’s face. She gritted her teeth and said in a low voice,


    “Joseph, shut up!”


    ‘Don’t embarrass me in front of someone.”
