Chapter 363 Insist on Being a Fickle Woman
Chloe’s outfit was not flamboyant and rather casual. She had on a short sweater with a beret and a pair
of jeans, exposing only a finger-width of her waist. She appeared young and lively. Standing next to
Noah, they appeared like a couple.
Joseph tugged at his tie and kept his composure, but his cold look frightened people.
Octavia, who had planned to find trouble with him, did not dare to approach him.
Chloe spotted Joseph, becoming slightly nervous as she tried to stick close to Harold.
Joseph caught the change in Chloe’s expression and anguish hit his soul, filling him with pain and
gloominess.
When the birthday party started, Harold saw the cake Chloe had gifted him. When he heard that she
baked the cake herself, he grinned from ear to ear. He then showed it off smugly. Look! She baked it
herself. The best presents are those that time is spent on.”

Harold was old and lacked sharp hearing. He did not hear what Octavia said, but Chloe did.
She glanced at Octavia and smiled faintly. “I did bring a present,” she said loudly, and the surrounding
people looked over.
Disdain engulfed Octavia’s expression. “What present did you bring? Show us.”
“I gifted it to Grandpa. It’s a chess set.”
Chloe had hurriedly gone to buy it this afternoon. Of course, it was nothing for rich people, but she had
not bought a cheap item either.
“I saw the chess set. The carvings are very nice. I have the same set at home.” Noah suddenly spoke
up as if he was just making a casual comment.
Chloe looked up at him and knew that he was trying to get her out of the predicament. She now had an
even better impression of him. She smiled as she looked at him.
When Joseph saw the interaction between them, he clenched his fists tightly. Deep anger filled his
chest. ‘She’s casting sheep’s eyes at him and is being all intimate with him but she won’t even stay with
me for more than half a minute.’ He chose to close his eyes. When he opened them, they were somber
and without emotion. ‘Forget it. She’s the one who insists on being a fickle woman. I won’t go easy on
her again.’
Octavia was flabbergasted. ‘Why is this bumpkin so generous?’
The Sullivan family used the best things. Even when casually buying a chess set, it would surely be
valuable.
Harold coughed and frowned with annoyance. “Okay, the gift is just a kind gesture. I like the cake
more.”
He then glanced at Joseph because he thought that Joseph had failed him again. ‘What’s the matter
with this brat today? His wife has been here for such a long time but he hasn’t said a word.’
A few pianists were talking endlessly outside the house, wanting to enter the house. “We were invited
to come and perform here. We charge by the time. You’re just a guard. Don’t stop us from earning
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmoney.”
Patrick faked a smile. “We didn’t invite anyone to perform today. Please leave.”
“That’s impossible. It was the young madam of the Whitman family who hired us to celebrate Mr.
Harold’s birthday for him.”
Ronald Atkinson enjoyed great fame in the piano field. He could earn 100 thousand dollars in a single
show, which contributed to his arrogant behavior.
Patrick was taken aback. “The young madam of the Whitman family? May I know what her name is?”
Ronald thought Patrick was scared, so he answered smugly, “Xavia Larson.”
Patrick had been working for a rich family for more than twenty years and understood Xavia’s intent.
She was trying her best to show her status and power, but unfortunately, she had taken the wrong step.
“You’ve misunderstood. We have no young madam in the Whitman family. Please take your leave.”
Ronald became a bit anxious. He could not have come here for nothing, so he stopped Patrick and
demanded rudely, “Call over someone who can decide on things. You’re just a guard and I don’t trust
you.”
