Chapter 307 He Wants to Spend More Time With Me? Joseph’s breath was scorching, his large hands
cupping her cheeks. He looked deeply into her eyes and whispered, “Tell me, where do you want to
go?” “The car.” Joseph agreed and released his grip on her wrist. Seizing this opportunity, Chloe swiftly
utilized the self-defense techniques she had learned in the past. With precision and speed, she raised
her knee and delivered a fierce kick to Joseph’s lower body. Caught off guard, he instantly turned pale,
his handsome face contorted with at ferocious and grim expression as if he were ready to devour
someone whole. Terrified, Chloe could not bring herself to look back and hastily pushed open the door,
fleeing in a state of panic. As the forum reached its conclusion, Icarus noticed Chloe’s flushed face and
could not help but express his curiosity. “Didn’t you go to the restroom? Why are you so sweaty?”
Chloe guiltily replied, “The restroom was crowded.” Icarus nodded, but before he could inquire further,
a group of men approached him and engaged him in conversation. Sensing an opportunity, Chloe
discreetly moved aside, taking out her phone and using the front camera to adjust her slightly
disheveled appearance. Her wavy hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her petite face bore a hint of

vulnerable quality to her appearance, making her look especially pitiful. A discerning observer could
easily sense that something out of the ordinary had just occurred. As Joseph emerged from the
restroom, he was confronted with this scene. The smoldering flames that had momentarily subsided
now roared back to life within him. Chloe raised her head, and their eyes locked together in a charged
gaze. The pristine state of Joseph’s once neatly arranged shirt had been disrupted, bearing witness to
certain misdeeds that had taken place. The wrinkles on his shirt served as tangible evidence. of their
encounter. Chloe’s heart raced with a mixture of fear and uncertainty. It was the first time she had
rebelled without fully considering the consequences, unsure of whether the man would go crazy.
Joseph closed the distance between them with firm steps, his presence commanding as ever.” Come
with me,” he demanded. “I refuse.” “You made me a promise.” Chloe paused and quickly glanced at the
calendar app on her phone, confirming that today was already the 28th. With only two days remaining
until the end of the month, she had no choice but to face the consequences of her delay. Observing
Chloe’s reluctant expression, Joseph’s brows furrowed in clear displeasure. “You want to go back on
your word?” he questioned, his voice tinged with frustration. “Taking advantage and then not being
accountable? Is she a hypocrite? Hadn’t she been by Icarus’ side all day long and attending to his
every need? Isn’t that enough?’ Chloe felt the weight of Joseph’s gloomy aura pressing down on her,
rendering her speechless. Reluctantly, she acquiesced, her voice barely above a whisper. “Fine, I’ll go
with you, but I need to drop Icarus off first. He’s still recovering and has difficulty walking.” Joseph’s
gaze turned frigid, a look capable of freezing the air. He suppressed his jealousy and responded curtly,
“Leave it to Lucas.” Without further delay, he seized her hand and dragged her outside. Back at the
villa, Toto was the first to emerge, followed closely by Oreo. Chloe’s heart sank as she noticed their
presence. “You’re living together with Xavia?” Joseph responded with annoyance, “I prefer living
alone.” She could not help but feel a pang of guilt. She had been too quick to judge him, always ready
to assume he was a scumbag. She had forgotten that he had only made one mistake and it was not his
true nature. Chloe inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief. “And Oreo…” “Xavia went on a trip.” ‘A trip?’
“Can her body handle it?” xo.com fast update ‘A cancer patient undergoing chemotherapy going

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChloe’s reminder, Joseph also realized something was amiss. However, he did not see it as a
significant issue. Some cancer patients felt a strong desire to explore the world and make the most of
their time, seeking to avoid any regrets. After silently deciding to avoid discussing Xavia any further, it
seemed as though both Chloe and Joseph understood the unspoken agreement. Feeling a sense of
responsibility, Chloe headed to the kitchen. However, upon opening the fridge, she was greeted with
emptiness. Perplexed, she asked, “Did you not buy groceries this month?” Joseph lazily responded,
“Nope.” “Then what have you been eating?” He maintained his nonchalant demeanor. “I eat at the
company.’ Since Chloe had moved out, Joseph found himself occasionally cooking for himself. The
taste of his meals was decent, but he lacked the appetite to fully enjoy them. He could not shake the
feeling that eating alone was not how it should be. He preferred the days when he had a partner to
share meals with. “Oh, I’ll go out and get some groceries then.” A skilled cook, and even the most
talented housewife, were rendered powerless without essential ingredients. “I’ll go with you.” Chloe
pursed her lips, her clear eyes fixed on the man. Why did she have a nagging feeling that he wanted to
spend more time with her? Was it just her imagination playing tricks on h
