Chapter 745 Calling off the Marriage
The men nodded. "We know the rules."
Swithin Duskfall relied on their brawns, while others relied on their brains. They knew that Xavia was part of
the latter, and since she had failed her mission, they could take liberties with her.
Xavia’'s eyes went wide with fear. She crawled toward Cyrus and clung to his thigh. "Sir, I'll soon be a part of the
royal family. Please don't do this to me."
“They're going to help you get rid of Chloe. Shouldn't you reward them?" Cyrus got up and smiled. His poker face
never failed to inspire fear.
"Sir, I'm still useful. Please showmercy. I've worked hard all these years."
"If you were useful, you would've secured Joseph's favor a long tago. But now, Chloe has even managed to
make a counterattack against you." Cyrus gazed down at her, looking like he was educating her patiently.
“Worthless people just love thinking they're useful. Be good now and cherish this last chance."
Cyrus pulled her hands away from his thigh and left the room, carrying his tea with him. Xavia collapsed on the
floor in despair. A sense of disgust arose in her as she looked at the eager men.
"Stop crying. It's no big deal. Serve us well and we'll be nice to you."

"Yeah, this is going to be my first thaving this much fun in a group.”
"We all work for Mr. Cyrus. It's just that the mission is different this taround. It's not a big deal. Those women
working in clubs are okay with handling such tasks."
"I'm not one of those women!" Xavia roared angrily. She hunched her body and tried her best to stay away from
them.
"Yeah, you're not, but you're a member of Duskfall. What do you think will happen to you if you disobey Mr.
Cyrus?"
Xavia trembled and soon composed herself. She was unwilling to serve these men. Although she had led a
carefree life in the past, those she had laid with were elites and handsmen. It had been a kind of enjoyment
for her.
However, she had no choice but to submit. Once she had gotten through this day, Chloe would die. At that
thought, excitement overwhelmed her. She took a deep breath and wiped away her tears. She then leaned
toward one of the men.
"I'm fragile. Please be gentle with me."

When Noah cout of the meeting, his secretary informed him that Chloe had been looking for him earlier. He
handed her documents to her and said, "I'll go find her now."
"Mr. Noah, don't you want to have lunch first? It's been sitting there for stand is getting cold."
"It's fine. I'll eat when | get back." Noah strode toward the elevator.
The secretary sighed. "He's so nice to Ms. Chloe. Rich and loyal men are so rare." On top of that, Noah did not
despise Chloe for being a divorcee.

Noah gently knocked on the glass door of Chloe's office. His dimples popped as he teased adoringly, "Ms. Chloe,
you're still hard at work despite it being noon already? Looks like I'll have to give you a raise.”
"Not as hard as you. You're always in a meeting or another," Chloe replied seriously, "Have you had lunch?"
"Not yet."
"Let's eat together then."
Noah smiled and sat down. "Okay."
"By the way, did you sell the resort?" Chloe stuffed a piece of vegetable into her mouth before looking up at him
with a questioning gaze.
Noah was a little taken aback. He met her eyes and answered, "Yeah, | sold it."
"Why? It brings in millions in profit per season."

He put his fork down and explained solemnly, "I don't want you to have any more contact with Joseph. Selling
the resort is worth it if you can cut off contact with him.”
Chloe was dumbstruck. She broke out in a cold sweat. "I never contacted him."
"Coco, stop lying to me. | know everything."
"What do you know?"
Chloe did not want to admit it, holding out hope. Their engagement had been arranged regardless of her feelings
toward Noah, but she still felt guilty and awkward when interrogated this way.
Noah's eyes turned dull and his knuckles turned pale. After a brief pause, he released his fists and said gently, "I
know it's him pestering you. It's not your fault. Just stop seeing him from now on."
Chloe blinked rapidly as her guilt deepened. She said with difficulty but sincerity, "Noah, we have yet to officiate
our relationship. | think you deserve someone better."
She did not fancy Noah and merely thought of him as a younger brother. Desmond was the one who had made
this sudden decision. She was forced to agree to it before she could figure out how to refuse him. Many years
had passed, and Noah and Chloe had never brought up such matters. Noah treated her the sas he always
had.
She knew that she could not delay it any longer. She had to make her feelings clear.
Noah looked crestfallen. "Are you calling off the marriage?"
