Not wanting Joseph to dwell in this state, Vince attempted to divert his attention. "Xavia has given birth to a son. Would you like to go and see them?" "Getthe hospital's surveillance footage." "We failed to retrieve them. The fire was too intense and it affected the circuits and network." Joseph's brows furrowed as he said hoarsely and stubbornly, "Find a way to retrieve it." Vince nodded, though he held little hope. Lucas had gone to retrieve the surveillance footage immediately after the fire, but the equipment had been completely burnt beyond recognition.
After Vince left, Joseph recalled that Emily had taken away Chloe's ashes. He took out The Flawless Love from his pocket, feeling a numbing ache gripping his heart. He could not cto terms with Chloe's death and lacked the courage to go to the hospital. The mere idea of standing in the very place where Chloe had lost her life was more agonizing than taking his own life.

The slightly crumpled bed sheets, the soft glow of the desk lamp, the books scattered on the table... These remnants bore witness to Chloe's presence just a day ago. But now, they were separated by the chasm of life and death.
He slipped off his shoes and got into the bed, feeling the lingering warmth Chloe had left behind. In an instant, all his senses were amplified. Within the soft embrace of the blanket, her delicate fragrance lingered, permeating the air.
In the midst of this bittersweet realization, he could almost feel her beside him. He extended a trembling hand, yearning to reach out and touch her. But like a mirage, her figure dissolved into nothingness. No matter how desperately he grasped, his efforts were futile. She had vanished without a trace.
At that moment, the harsh reality struck Joseph with an undeniable force-Chloe was gone.
In the depths of the night, enveloped by solitude, an overwhelming wave of grief swept over Joseph. Regret erupted from the depths of his heart, threatening to consand suffocate him. In the confines of his bed, he curled into a ball, unleashing a primal roar of anguish. For the first tin his thirty years, he felt utterly defeated. He had failed to protect the woman he loved, and now she was forever beyond his reach. He was powerless to remedy the situation, and he could not hold on to her either.
He was struck with a profound realization of the despair Nathan must have experienced when Serenity passed away. He now understood the anguish of losing Chloe at the very moment he loved her the most.
With tears clouding his vision, Joseph summoned the strength to rise from the bed. He proceeded to tenderly gather the belongings Chloe had left behind, delicately placing them in the transparent cabin his study. It was as if by preserving these mementos, he could feel her presence every second of his days.

Emily arrived at the scene with Chloe's ashes. She approached the weary-looking man with caution. "Remember. We agreed that once the funeral is over, you'll return Coco's ashes to me."
Joseph's face was marred by unkempt stubble. His eyes, cold and bloodshot, betrayed the sleepless nights he had endured. "Yes, I'll let her go." He refused to make Chloe unhappy anymore. If she wanted to leave, then he would grant her that freedom. Seeing her from afar would suffice.
The funeral held a somber atmosphere, with only a smallgathering in attendance. Alongside the employees of the Johnson Group, Lily from Baxon, Noah, and Xavia were also present. Emily seethed with anger at the sight of Xavia. "Get out! Coco wouldn't want to see you here!"
