Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214 What’s Our Relationship Now? 

Emily stared at the information about Xavia on Wikipedia, lost in thought. “She is quite beautiful, but she gives off a keep-your-distance vibe. She doesn’t look like someone easy to get along with, not like you.” 

Chloe responded with a smile, perceiving Emily’s words as mere consolation. “Well, she’s a renowned violinist, after all. She naturally carries herself differently from the rest of us.” 

“Hah, she’s just another poser.” 

At that moment, Chloe’s phone rang, and Joseph’s voice came through, informing her of his arrival. 

Joseph’s car was parked by the hospital entrance. As Chloe and Emily approached, engrossed in their lively conversation and laughter, Joseph could not help but notice Chloe’s resplendent complexion and her vibrant energy. She seemed to emanate a vibrant aura as if she had completely recovered. 

A smile crept onto his face. It seemed to him that she had recovered well and that it would not affect her ability to conceive in the future. 

“I’ll drop you home, Emily,” he offered. 

Chloe opened the passenger door for Emily, gesturing for her to get in. Momentarily hesitant, Emily touched her face and asked, “Is it okay? I hope I won’t cause any inconvenience…” 

Joseph’s tone remained indifferent as he replied, “It’s no trouble” 

A glimmer of excitement sparkled in Emily’s eyes She had never experienced riding in such a luxurious car before. Without hesitation, she graciously entered and turned around, flashing a radiant smile. “Thank you, Uncle!” 

The words hung in the air, freezing both Chloe and Emily in their tracks. 

“% 

Joseph raised his eyebrows and asked, “Uncle?” 

“Well… my uncle often picks me up. I’ve grown accustomed to calling him as such, haha,” Emily explained, her voice tinged with embarrassment. 

“Jojo, it’s the weekend today. Shall we go out for a meal?” Chloe asked as she latched onto Joseph’s arm, her eyes curved with a smile. 

Joseph’s attention was drawn to her, and he playfully pinched her nose. “All you think about is food.” 

“All I’ve been eating at the hospital is bland food. I want something spicy! Is that okay?” 

“No spicy food, but everything else is fine.” 

“Yay! You’re the best, Jojo!” 

For the rest of the journey, Emily remained silent, sitting quietly like a child who had done. something wrong. 

“Bye, Chloe.”

“Bye!” Chloe reassured Emily with a glance, signaling that everything was fine. 

In the mall, Chloe pulled Joseph into a restaurant. Since Joseph did not allow her to have any spicy food, she had no other choice but to opt for other dishes. Though she felt a bit disappointed for not being allowed to have the spicy food, Chloe reminded herself of the close call with Emily and suddenly found the food before her appealing. If Joseph were to find out that she mistook him for someone at the bar, the consequences would be unimaginable. 

Joseph handed over the menu. “Why are you spacing out?” 

Chuckling, Chloe replied, “Oh, nothing. I’ll order for us. What would you like?” 

“Anything is fine,” Joseph said. 

As they finished their meal, Chloe happily patted her full belly. Joseph, on the other hand, had consumed little, busy serving her throughout the entire meal. Her stomach was full, and her heart warmed by the unexpected act of chivalry from the usually despicable man. 

“Aren’t you going to eat more? Won’t you get hungry later tonight?” 

Joseph looked at her with faint doubt and said, “It’s fine. The food doesn’t taste good, don’t you. think?” 

“So, you were serving me because you found it unappetizing?” 

“Yeah, I had nothing better to do,” Joseph nonchalantly replied. 

“Jeez…” 

Joseph asked indifferently, “Are you full?” 

“Yes, I’ll go get the bill. I have a coupon for this place, 50 dollars off for every 200 spent,” Chloe said as she stood up to head to the cashier. 

Joseph’s mouth twitched. “You don’t have to be so frugal. The supplementary card I gave you has no spending limit.” 

If others were to find out, they might mistakenly believe he was mistreating her. 

“No, we should save where we can and spend wisely. Money doesn’t come easy,” Chloe insisted, proceeding to the front counter with her wallet. 

Not long after Chloe left, a well-off woman approached Joseph, fluttering her eyelashes seductively. “Handsome, I have money too. I can afford anything you want. How about spending the night with me?” 

Joseph glanced disdainfully at her and coldly retorted, “Go away.” 

“Hey, why are you being so rude? Even though I’m not as young as that woman over there, I’m definitely wealthier than her. As a mature man in this profession, shouldn’t you be immune to others’ opinions?” the woman retorted. 

The woman mistakenly assumed that Joseph was an escort. It was understandable given the circumstances. Chloe was paying for the meal, and Joseph had spent the entire time serving her without eating much himself. 

To the woman, this seemed like a typical scenario of an escort being doted on by a woman. She could not fathom any other explanation for Joseph’s behavior. 

“Get out of my sight. I won’t say it a third time,” Joseph responded, his air of arrogance captivating the woman’s interest. 

She haughtily pulled out a wad of cash from her purse, the muscles on her face twitching as she flaunted her wealth. “Is this enough?”
