Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154 No Way 

Joseph propped up his chin with one hand, his gaze icy and piercing as it landed on Chloe’s 

face. 

His tone brooked no opposition as he commanded, “From now on, stay away from Icarus.” 

Confused, Chloe protested, “But why? Nothing happened between us, and I don’t have any feelings for him.” 

“You might not, but I can see clearly that he has feelings for you.” Joseph furrowed his brow, his gaze bereft of emotion. “Or do you simply enjoy being admired by others?” 

“If you can see that I have no such feelings for Icarus, why can’t you trust me?” 

“Hah!” Joseph sneered, his nostrils flaring with disdain. “If there truly is nothing between you, then you should maintain your distance from him. Don’t think for a moment that I’m unaware of your intentions. You’re keeping him as a backup plan, ready to go to him as soon as you leave me. Those occasional dates with him only serve to reinforce that fact.” 

Chloe met Joseph’s cold gaze, her frustration was evident as she explained, “No, that’s not it. I was completely unaware of his feelings for me. If I had known, I’d have never gone out with him. Especially not with you present. Cheating or betraying someone should always be carried out with discretion. It’s not something that can be done openly or in a public manner.” 

It would be a public display of humiliation, and she was not an idiot. 

As soon as the word “cheating” reached Joseph’s ears, something inside him snapped. He reached for her hand and gripped it tightly, a menacing aura shrouding his handsome face as each word he uttered dripped with fury. 

“Are you challenging me?” 

“What? No! I was just explaining. I’d never cheat on you with Icarus!” 

Little did Chloe know, the more she explained, the more it stoked Joseph’s anger. The flames of fury rose higher within him. He could not bear the sight of her lips, which seemed to mention nothing but Icarus. Overwhelmed by irritation, he leaned in and sealed her lips with a 

forceful kiss. 

Lucas quickly covered his eyes and hastily retreated from the office. 

‘Ugh… Mr. Joseph is so jealous…’ 

Chloe’s eyes widened in astonishment as she stared at the man pressed against her face. The words she had wanted to utter turned into a whimper. She tried to resist, but Joseph did not give her the chance. 

He seized her hands, swiftly securing them behind her back, while his other hand wrapped 

1/3 

around her delicate waist, effortlessly lifting her onto his thigh. 

‘Jesus!’ Chloe exclaimed inwardly, ‘What kind of embarrassing position is this?!’ 

This time was different from the previous instances, as Joseph displayed unprecedented dominance relentless and urgent-denying Chloe any chance to catch her breath. 

She struggled to resist, her cheeks turning crimson. But soon, she succumbed to his embrace, her body going limp in his arms. 

After half an hour, Joseph finally released his grip on Chloe. She quickly retreated to a corner, her clothes disheveled, her gaze dazed, and her lips slightly swollen, exuding an indescribable 

allure. 

Joseph watched her, his Adam’s apple bobbing up and down in his throat. He clenched his tie tightly as if contemplating removing it. 

“What are you… Why are you taking off your tie? This is a workplace, and if you dare to act out of line, I’ll call security!” Chloe snapped back to reality. Resembling a startled little creature, her eyes tinged with redness, teetering on the brink of tears. 

He chuckled, “Go ahead. This is my territory. Let’s see who dares to come and help you.” 

Chloe had no choice but to back down and use a different approach. “Don’t be like this. I’m not ready yet, and it’s weird to do it in the office.” 

“Do I look that desperate?” 

“No… But you look scary…” 

Joseph scoffed, throwing his tie onto her head. 

“Don’t worry. I have my standards when it comes to that kind of thing.” 

Engaging in such activities in the office showed a lack of respect for himself and for Chloe. 

Chloe pursed her lips and retorted angrily, “I’m not that kind of person either.” 

Joseph looked at her through the corner of his eye before turning his head. He fell silent for al moment and asked, “How many boyfriends have you had?” 

‘And how many people have you had sex with…’ he added silently. 

He was not a traditional man who insisted on women preserving their virginity, but that did not mean he did not care. 

Chloe’s eyes flickered, and she whispered softly, “Just one.”
