    Chapter 531 Let’s Make a Little Switch


    “Oh my gosh! I’m so sorry!” Chloe quickly apologized as she covered her forehead and winced in pain.


    “What are you so engrossed in?” a familiar voice of a young man asked.


    Looking up, Chloe saw Noah, d in a checkered shirt and carrying a ck backpack, smiling brightly


    with charming dimples on his cheeks.


    Feeling downcast, Chloe hung her head and forced augh that seemed sadder than tears. “It’s


    nothing.”


    Noah was slightly taller than Chloe. He gently lowered his head to meet her gaze as they talked.


    “You’re clearly bothered by something,” he said, his face filled with concern.


    Feeling the need to share her frustrations, Chloe could not hold back and confided, “Joseph will soon


    discover that I’m pregnant.”


    Noah’s expression changed imperceptibly, and he straightened his back. “What happened?”


    Chloe exined the whole situation, her voice filled with helplessness. She was truly at a loss and did


    not know what to do next. On one hand, Joseph might be happy to know he was going to be a father,


    but on the other, he might be angry that she had kept it from him for so long. Everything she had


    nned was slipping out of her control, and she felt increasingly anxious.

    Noah stared at Chloe for a while, then said, “Those herbs that you got from the hospital, what did they


    look like?”


    “It was in transparent packaging with each dose individually wrapped.”


    “And what does the herbalist that Mr. Joseph hired look like?”


    “Kind of thin, not very tall, he sports a beard, and is around forty years old.”


    “Is it Dr. Frederick Hartman?”


    “I think so?”


    “I know who it is,” Noah said, nodding firmly. ncing at the time, he reassured Chloe, “That old


    herbalist is quite famous. My grandfather has visited him before. I’ll go check it out. Maybe they haven’t


    started analyzing the herb packets yet.”


    Chloe remained stunned for a moment. “If they haven’t analyzed them, then what are we going to do?”


    Noah tilted his head. It was unclear whether he was joking or serious about his next words. We’re


    going to make a little switch.”


    Knowing that Chloe’s pregnancy would only strengthen Joseph’s determination to keep her by


    his side, even if it meant he had to employ forceful means, Noah realized that a direct confrontation


    was not an option for them. That would also go against his grandfather’s. wishes. Continuing to


    deceive was the most effortless method for now.


    “What?” Chloe finally caught on. “You’re joking, right?”


    “If it doesn’t work out, we’ll consider it a joke.” As Noah got into a cab to head to the clinic, he rolled


    down the window and waved at Chloe, who looked shocked. “You’ll hear back from me


    soon.”


    “Hey, don’t go!” Chloe realized he was serious and tried to stop him.


    “This is too tant! He’s going to get busted!’


    As the heir of Exotic Star, how would others view him if they witnessed him stealing?


    Chloe tried to call and message Noah several times, but he did not answer or reply. She could not


    believe he acted so impulsively.


    Upon learning about the situation, Emily excitedly pped her thigh. “There’s no doubt about it. Noah


    likes you.”


    “Stop talking nonsense and help me think of a solution.”


    Otherwise, people who did not know the truth might think she had instigated Noah to do it.


    “Trust me. He likes you. There’s no way he’d be so kind to someone for no reason. Unless he’s a


    klepto, of course.”


    In movies, wealthy kids from privileged families often had various “special interests.” Chloe was taken


    aback. “Are you serious? He doesn’t seem like that kind of person.”
