Chapter 497 Don’t me Joe
Chloe felt like her heart was in her throat, making her unable to articte her emotions. She had
worked hard and earned recognition from her teacher for achieving excellent results, only to discover
that Joseph had already spoken to the teacher and secured her a high score.
She understood Joseph’s good intentions but could not shake off her unease. She felt that all her
efforts had been in vain. She had put so much heart into that proposal, yet Joseph seemed to doubt
her capabilities.

Noah watched her expression closely and retrieved a brochure. He passed it to her, saying, I’ve set up
an office in Estre, whichpliments your business quite well. We can coborate if you’re interested.
As for your family’spany, we can explore a merger if you think it’s viable.”
Chloe was astounded. “You’re opening an office in Estre?”
“I like Estre, and my grandfather also wants me to gain some experience there.”
“But why me?”
Noah scratched his head and smiled gently. Two dimples appeared on his cheek as he smiled.” Your
proficiency in Estrenian and intelligence makes me believe you can handle this and help me ovee
any difficulties. Besides, you’re an outstanding individual. And let’s not forget you’re Exotic Star’s
ambassador. I see no reason why I shouldn’t choose you.”
Chloe’s eyes welled up slightly, touched by his words. “Thank you for your kind words.”
At that moment, she felt even more distraught. ‘Even Noah has faith in my abilities and offered
encouragement, yet…’
Soon after, they arrived at the hospital. Before leaving the car, Noah handed her a bag of candies, his
bright eyes free of ulterior motives. “I hope these treats will brighten your mood.”
Chloe smiled and replied, “Thank you.”
She found her way to the nurse’s station and asked about Xavia.
“Ms. Xavia? Someone brought her here this morning. She’s in Ward 5 on the right side of the third floor.
You can go straight in.”
“All right, thank you.”
“I know that patient. The man who apanied her was so handsome.”
“Yeah, he’s like a celebrity-no, more charismatic than a celebrity.”
The nurses’ whispers reached Chloe’s ears, causing her to clench her fists and her steps to be
heavy.

tensed as if she was lost in profound contemtion.
“You’re almost three months pregnant now, right? Don’t you n to tell Mr. Joseph?” Noah asked.
Chloe lowered her head. “I want to wait for the results of Xavia’s amniocentesis.”
He tilted his head, gazing at her profile. “What about after the results?”
“If it’s Joseph’s child, I’ll break up with him.”

“If Joseph finds out you’re pregnant, he won’t let you go so easily,” Noah said resolutely.
“I won’t let him know that I’m pregnant.”
“You know you can’t keep him in the dark forever.”
“My office is coborating with Mr. Hugo on a new project, and they need someone to oversee it in
Estre. I can apply to go there.”
As for the Johnson Group, she would do something about it. A few short months would not be a
problem for remote management, especially considering the office had recently taken on. very few
external projects.
“A new project with Mr. Hugo?” Noah asked in surprise, “Are you talking about Arcane Grove
Ventures?”
“Yes. You know about it too?”
“Yes, Joseph has joined that project too. Even if you go abroad, it might be difficult to avoid interaction,”
Noah remarked.
Chloe’s eyes widened slightly, her thoughts bing jumbled. “Joseph is a part of it, too?”
“You didn’t know?” Understanding dawned upon Noah as he continued hesitantly, “Nathan and Joseph
are friends. Did Joseph inform his father, and that’s how you got involved?
“Of course, I don’t doubt your abilities, but your office’s line of business doesn’t align with real estate
development, so it’s not on par with the Reese Group’s MO.”
