A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband novel Chapter 171

Chapter 171 

In the face of Jerome’s ridicule, Patt’s face suddenly changed, and he secretly clenched his fists. 

Thorp family’s people naturally pretended to be deaf and mute, but Draco had sharp ears and bright eyes at this time, and his eyes looked at Jerome with obvious anger. 

“Chloe, a girl should still drink some to warm her body. I’ll get someone to warm a glass of white wine for you. It doesn’t matter if you drink a little.” Jerome smiled gently at her and ignored the pale Patt. 

“Ahem, that… Actually, I can drink anything.” 

Chloe was sandwiched between the two young masters, Xavier family. Her scalp was a little numb. Both sides did not appreciate it. She smiled awkwardly and said, “However, I want to drink beer more…” 

Unexpectedly, the Xavier brothers looked at her together and said in unison, “No!” 

When the dinner was almost over, Jerome got up and temporarily left for the bathroom. 

In front of the sink, Jerome continuously dispensed hand soap into his palm, and his pale hands, resembling beautifully preserved specimens soaked in formalin, were relentlessly and vigorously rubbed together, turning from cold to a rosy hue. 

He washed it five times in total, raising his hand to sniff, yet still detecting a fishy smell, he squeezed another handful of soap and carefully washed each finger. 

At this time, the bathroom door was pushed open. 

Patt walked in with a gloomy face. Seeing that Jerome was washing his hands in a perverted way, he could not help but mock, “It’s really hard on your fourth brother. He peeled a shrimp for Miss Thorp for the whole night. For a freak like you who is obsessed with cleanliness, it must be hell. Do you have to wash your hands in your dreams tonight?” 

Jerome ignored his ridicule. He only took out a few pieces of tissue paper, lowered his white eyelids, and elegantly wiped his hands. 

“Fourth brother, we haven’t seen each other for many years. I thought you learned something amazing in Stoeyae.”

“So, you learned how to be a simp.” Patt sneered. 

“What? Second brother, are you jealous?” 

“After all, in front of Chloe, you don’t even have the chance to lick a dog.” Jerome smiled evilly. 

“You!” 

“Compared to struggling to turn around and not getting close to Chloe outside, you are obviously more valuable than me.” 

Patt was choked to the point that the corners of his eyes turned red. He was so angry that he laughed instead, “Hehe… No wonder Dad looked down on you since you were a child. Your brain is indeed abnormal. You are not a good person, but you must be a simp!” 

“In this world, they don’t applaud the poor but they do applaud the crafty. Regardless of the means, achieving the goal is what matters most.” Jerome threw the ball of paper into the basket and smiled, “Haven’t you always disdained to say a word to me since you were a child? Why did you suddenly change your personality tonight and become so noisy?” “Are you anxious to watch my relationship with Chloe improve by leaps and bounds? Seeing that your wishful thinking has been ruined, do you feel that you are even worse than a dog?”

“Jerome! Don’t get cocky too early! Let me tell you, Dad will never agree to you being together with Thorp family! Do you… think you are qualified to compete with me” This time, Patt was really/anxious and angry! 

“Whether you are worthy or not is never up to you to decide.” 

Jerome slowly turned around and looked at the red-eyed man. His dark eyes narrowed and he pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses. “I am determined to get Chloe.” 

As expected, the conversation ended and Patt slammed the door in anger. The smile on Jerome’s lips disappeared and he clenched his fists tightly. 

At this time, his phone vibrated in his arms. He coldly answered, “What?” “Director Xavier, there is something that you must calm down after hearing it.” 

The secretary paused and said in a low voice, “I don’t know when Joseph came. He is right outside Thorp family’s door now! He didn’t bring anyone with him and came by himself!” 

Jerome’s dark eyes narrowed and he replied coldly, “Got it.” 

At this moment, Joseph was wearing a thin suit, standing alone under the street lamp facing Tong Garden. 

Although Sea Gate was near the sea, it was already late autumn. The wind at night was still quite strong, drilling into his heart through his collar. This was the third time he stood here, waiting for Chloe. 

But this time, his state of mind was completely different from the previous two times. The threads of desire had unknowingly turned into indescribable heat, burning silently in his heaving chest. 

It seemed that this star was not the same as last night, and it was exposed to the wind for whom. 

It was not that Joseph had not thought about what would happen if he could not see Chloe tonight. 

As her ex-husband, his self-esteem told him that he could not take the initiative to contact her. Anyone who had some face could not stand being humiliated again and again like this. 

So, he decided to wait and keep waiting. 

Chloe would come out eventually, and he would see her. 

As long as he could see her, as long as he could see her… 

Suddenly, the door of Tong Garden slowly opened. 

Joseph’s heart suddenly tightened. All the nerves in his body were mobilized, and his tall body suddenly leaned forward. 

His eyes were like torches, staring at the direction of the door, and even his breathing became heavier. 

However, when Jerome walked out of his sight with a faint smile, his pounding heart suddenly fell down. 

Joseph looked coldly at the man walking in front of him. 

“Mr. Sawle, there is no one else here in dead of the night. Isn’t it too 

to con be 

rude and inappropriate for you here without saying hello?” 

Jerome looked at him with a mocking gaze. 

“What does my appearance here have to do with you? What? Is Sea Gate yours?” Joseph asked with a cold smile. 

“Joseph, you have always been such a scoundrel.”

“I know why you are here. I also know what you are thinking. You just regret that you chose Grace between Grace and Chloe.” 

Now that he found out that he had been fooled by that woman, he realized his stupidity and wanted to chase Chloe back. He did not want to lose everything. It was too ugly. 

“What do you think Chloe is? A tool to fill up your emptiness? You hurt Chloe deeply. Do you think she will still stay in the same place and wait for you?” 

Joseph’s Adam’s apple moved up and down, and his tongue was bitter. 

“Chloe already has a new person by her side, of which you are well aware. If you want to have any ideas about Chloe again, you should ask me if I agree or not. Jerome adjusted his glasses, his eyes cold. 

“It’s not your turn to say these words, Jerome.” 

Joseph raised his chin slightly. The man’s heart was burning with desire for victory. “Even if I regret it, even if I want to start with Chloe again, even if Chloe refuses, Chloe should tell me personally.” 

Everything you say in front of me is equivalent to farting. 

Joseph.” 

Joseph!” 

Jerome’s brows were icy cold, and he didn’t conceal his murderous intent. towards this man in the slightest. 

But he never imagined that his voice would actually become the second. Joseph suddenly lifted his eyes. The moment he saw Chloe walking towards him with a fierce voice, his heart uncontrollably throbbed violently. 

“Chloe, why did you come out with so little clothes? The wind is cold at night…”
