Chapter 610 He Underestimated Joseph’s Love for Chloe
Harold could sense Chloe''s grievance through her voice. Waving, he said, "Don''t agitate her any
further. Just say yes."
Patrick nodded and replied, "I''ll do my best to persuade Mr. Joseph."
Chloe''s heart blossomed with a glimmer of hope, and tears began to fill her eyes. "Thank you,
Patrick. I won''t bother you anymore."

After hanging up, Patrick looked at Harold with a troubled expression. "Sir, it seems like things are
really over between them."
If Joseph was the father to the baby in Chloe''s womb, then his actions this time would be truly
disappointing.
Harold said as he frowned, "The biggest issue between them right now is the baby. If we want them
to get back together, we need to first rify the child''s paternity."
"Given Ms. Chloe''s current state of mind, she probably won''t agree to an amniocentesis."
Harold’s hands went around a cup, but he made no move to drink its contents. His eyes fixated on a
mid-match chessboard, lost in contemtion.
Knowing that he was deep in contemtion, Patrick did not disturb him and remained quietly by the
side.
"Arrange for a meeting between me and Chloe."
"But if someone sees you, they''ll think you’re a ghost. Are you sure about this?"
Harold sighed. "I understand that, but I also have to help my grandson. I can''t just stand by and let
him push his wife further and further away from him."
"But your health isn''t in good condition either..." Patrick said, expressing his worries.
Although Harold had narrowly escaped death, the toxins had seeped into his body. His overall
health had deteriorated greatly, particrly the condition of his heart. He now depended on daily
medication to keep himself going.
"I''ll just go out and have a heart-to-heart talk with Chloe. What''s the worst that could happen?
Death?" Harold urged, growing impatient. "Hurry up and make the arrangements. Otherwise, I won''t
feel at ease."
Patrick had no other choice but to do Harold’s bidding.

On the other side, Emily attributed all the credit for Chloe not having to go through with the
procedure to Noah. She prepared two portions of cheesecake, one to be delivered to the front desk
of Exotic Star and the other to Lucas. She intended to express her gratitude to Noah while gathering
information about Chloe from Lucas at the same time.
When Noah''s driver arrived at Exotic Star, the front desk gave him the cake to bring to Noah.
"Sir, this is from a girl named Emily, and there''s a card too." The driver handed over the card with
both hands.
Noah did not immediately lift his head, studying the sales data on the documents before leisurely
looking up. His gazended on the card ced in the upper left corner of the table. It read, [Thank
you forst Thursday. Coco didn’t undergo the procedure and is at home resting.]
He froze for a moment. Looks like he had underestimated Joseph''s love for Chloe. It was hard to
fathom that someone as domineering as Joseph would repeatedly makepromises for Chloe.
A dark light flickered in Noah''s eyes. His ns werepletely disrupted. Looks like bringing Chloe
back to the Sullivans would take longer than anticipated.
The driver scrutinized Noah''s expression and asked, "Sir, is there some sort of mistake with the
delivery?"
His employer had been in ss all of Thursday. He had not even stepped out of the campus
grounds, let alone helped anyone.
Noah ignored his driver''s question, his mind filled with annoyance at the idea of Chloe being
pregnant with Joseph''s child. Why would she be so foolish to endure such hardship when Joseph
was not treating her well?
He empathized with Chloe''s situation and decided to return Emily''s call. Emily answered and once
again expressed her gratitude to him.

Noah paused briefly before replying, "Don''t mention it. I''m just doing what I can do."
He certainly would not deny the opportunity to improve his standing with Chloe. Besides, he had not
refused Emily when she came asking for help that day.
