Chapter 641 Booking a Postnatal Care Center for Xavia
“Okay, we’ll do that,” Chloe replied.
After staying up all night, they returned home to rest.
Chloe slept until the afternoon to replenish her energy. She took a bath, allowing the warm water to wash away her
fatigue. While lathering up, she overheard Joseph on a call discussing something about booking a postnatal care
center.
She could not help but entertain a ridiculous hope as she looked at her growing belly. After her shower, she still
heard Joseph’s voice coming intermittently from the other room. She stopped in her tracks and eavesdropped.
“Go ahead and choose any postnatal care center you want.”
“Sure, you can discuss it with Lucas.”
“I can’t go today. Go on your own.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Okay, bye.”
Once the call ended, Chloe knew exactly whom he had been talking to. After all, there were only two pregnant
women around herself and Xavia. After not having been sleep deprived for a long time, her exhausted mind
struggled to process the situation clearly. Surprisingly, she did not feel anger. Instead, a slight sense of
disappointment crept in, which strangely felt like a normal response after everything she had been through. 1
Joseph’s newfound kindness toward Xavia had become apparent in the past few days. He even took the initiative to
book a postnatal care center for her.
Chloe’s heart had grown numb from the pain, leaving her indifferent to both joys and sorrows. With her emotions in
check, she decided to go back to sleep. Just as she settled under the covers, Joseph entered the room.
Refusing to acknowledge his presence, she pulled the blanket over her head.
Joseph’s expression darkened upon seeing her reaction. “If you’re awake, come downstairs and eat. You can go
back to sleep after that.”
“I’m not hungry.”
“Even if you’re not, you have to eat. Don’t be stubborn.”
Chloe, threw off the blanket and sat up, locking her gaze with his. “So not wanting to eat means being stubborn?”
She had gained a few pounds as her pregnancy progressed, and her cheeks had become chubby. Despite her
attempt to look angry, the softness of her cheeks only added to her charm.
Josepn’s neart melted at the signt. He said, “I’m arraia or you railing in it you go nungry.”
Chloe was perplexed by the man in front of her. Did he like having the best of both worlds, keeping everyone close
to him? Earlier he was on the phone with Xavia, and now he was here comforting her?
Baffled by her silence, Joseph asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Stop pretending. I heard you on the phone with Xavia.” Chloe did not want to waste her time playing along with his
act.
“You’re talking about the postnatal care center?” Joseph asked.

“I can explain-”
“I don’t need your explanations,” Chloe interjected, her hands covering her ears as if trying to block out his words.
Unknown to her, her actions appeared more like jealousy.
Joseph smiled playfully as he sat on the bedside and gently took her hands away from her ears. Teasingly, he asked,
“Are you jealous?”
Chloe feigned a smile. “No, I have severe morning sickness. I’m afraid I might throw up if I hear any more of your
words.”
Joseph raised an eyebrow. “Chloe, please. There’s only so much I can tolerate. You can’t keep behaving like this.”
“Oh, are you getting fed up with me?” Chloe smirked playfully and then thought of something. She paused
momentarily and said, “If you really want to talk to me, how about sharing some personal information about
Nathan’s girlfriend? Like where she’s from, her and how they met.”
Her sixth sense told her that something was off with Amelia. age,
“I haven’t investigated her,” Joseph replied. Nathan was his close friend, and it was not wise
to secretly dig into the background of his close friend’s girlfriend.
“I’d like to know. Can you have someone look into it?” Chloe inquired.
