Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 185

Chapter 185 Take Chloe Out Shopping 

“But why?” 

“It’s too sexy.” 

Chloe was flabbergasted. She solemnly inspected her clothes for a few minutes before she stated, “No. It’s just a plain old shirt.” 

“Change it. Keep your current identity in mind. You represent more than yourself now.‘ 

Chloe yearned to retort back at him, but it was time to go to work. Hence, she reluctantly returned to her bedroom to change into a boyfriend -style top. The long hem of her shirt covered her pants so now it looked like she wore nothing else other than her shirt. It seemed ordinary, but this was 

attractive to men. 

A frown appeared on Joseph’s face. “Who are you trying to seduce?” 

Chloe disobeyed him this time around. She put her hands on her waist and retorted, “What do you mean by normal or strange clothes? You’re just being prejudiced against me. It’s useless no matter what clothes I put on!” 

Joseph’s slender sharp eyes turned dark. He got up from the sofa and forced her into a corner step by step. Soon, his tall figure towered over her. “Hmm?” 

Chloe’s bravado faded. She chuckled. “No, I’m just trying to explain it to you. People have the freedom to wear what they want to wear in today’s society. There’s no need to argue 

about it. All the girls dress up like this.” 

Joseph tried his best to recall but he could not come up with images of other women as he had largely ignored other 

women. But he decided to not argue with her today because of the recent softening of her attitude. He would have time to slowly make that right in the future. 

They went to Fairlight together. After the morning meeting, Joseph called Nathan. “Why do women always dress in such revealing clothes? What’s going on in their minds?” 

Nathan, who was much experienced in this matter, swallowed the food that the woman beside him was feeding him. “It’s because it’s pretty.” 

“Is that the only reason?” Joseph tapped the space bar on his keyboard. “Isn’t the reason to seduce men?” 

“No, it’s not. Women put on makeup sometimes and buy pretty clothes to make themselves happy or to compete with other women in terms of charm. It’s like how men like to compete with each other in terms of wealth. Women like to compete in terms of their prettiness.” Nathan made a rational analysis before he teased Joseph, “Did you and Coco have a tiff? 

Joseph lifted his chin and snorted indignantly, “She doesn’t have the guts.” 

“Well, why are you suddenly asking about this then?” 

“It’s none of your business. What’s the most effective way to resolve this issue?” 

“Simple. Take her out shopping and pick some styles that 

you’re satisfied with. Women are happy when they get new 

clothes, and you get what you want at the same time.” 

Joseph’s finger hovered over the spacebar. He fell into deep thought. ‘That is a good idea.‘

At four o’clock in the afternoon, Wendy gathered all the employees of the marketing department and made an announcement. “Ladies and gentlemen, I have an announcement to make. I’m starting my maternity leave 

tomorrow and will be away for a month and a half. Ellie and Chloe will be taking over my tasks. Chloe will be responsible for your daily, weekly, and monthly reports.” 

Everyone nodded to express their obedience. “Ms. Wendy, remember to invite us to your baby shower. We’ll prepare great gifts for you!” 

“That’s right. Get a nanny and relax during this holiday. I heard that women should get plenty of rest after delivery or else their bodies will become weak.” 

“I understand. You guys have to complete your task seriously. I won’t worry as long as you don’t infuriate Ellie and Chloe.” 

Wendy had worked for Fairlight for many years and always held the role of a senior. Although she was generally stern, she always took care of her others. Hence, her colleagues liked her. 

However, Ellie Miller raised a sarcastic comment. “It’s good if they don’t anger me, but Chloe just got here. She knows nothing.” 

Wendy knew that Ellie was bitter over this, so she tried to persuade her patiently, “Chloe hasn’t worked here for long but she has the experience of leading a team abroad. Plus, she 

has a lot of unique ideas. You guys can learn from each other.‘ 

With a sneer, Ellie shot a side–eye at Chloe. Her palm–sized face looked beautiful and pure, but her clear and pretty eyes brightened with a malicious glint. ‘At most, Chloe’s just a 

fresh graduate. She has led a team? Wendy must be trying to fool us.‘ 

Wendy handed a completed proposal to Chloe and Ellie in an attempt to bring them closer. “Help me deliver this proposal to Mr. Joseph’s office. I’m sure you don’t need me to tell you what to do, right?” 

“Yes, we know what to do.” 

Chloe was closer to Wendy than Ellie was, so she accepted the document. A tinge of dissatisfaction flashed through Ellie’s eyes as she stood at the side. When they knocked on Joseph’s door and walked into his office, Ellie suddenly snatched the document from Chloe and went forward, smiling 

enthusiastically.
