Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 222

Chapter 222 Maybe Xavia Isn’t That Wicked 

Chloe asked Xavia what it was about and asked if they could just discuss it over text instead, but Xavia did not reply. 

The appointed time Xavia fixed was an hour before Chloe got off work. After dwelling on it for a while, she decided to get up and took the elevator downstairs. 

It was just downstairs and was a very short distance. It would not take up much time. 

Outside the building, Xavia was silently waiting while holding an umbrella. Her complexion was horrible. She was wearing a sweater so that one could only vaguely see her hospital gown underneath. It was clear she had come straight from the hospital. 

Chloe raised her brows. “What can I do for you?” 

“I’m sorry to disturb you again.” 

“Just get to the point.” 

“I’ve been undergoing chemo in the hospital recently, so I have no time to take care of Oreo. I’m worried about putting Oreo in boarding long-term, so can you and Joe please take care of my dog 

for a while?” 

Chloe’s first response was to turn Xavia down. If she let Oreo stay in the villa, she would be giving. Xavia more chances to see Joseph. 

“Don’t worry. I’ll visit Oreo at most once a week. When the first stage of my chemo is over, I’ll take Oreo home. I promise not to step out of the line and disrupt your relationship with Joe.” 

Staring at Xavia’s extremely frank expression, Chloe’s desire to turn Xavia down grew for an unknown reason. While having such a thought, she started to say, “I think-” 

Suddenly, Xavia abruptly pushed Chloe. 

Being caught off-guard, Chloe staggered a few steps back as she witnessed Ellie, holding a fruit knife, stabbing Xavia’s arm in a crazed frenzy. 

Ellie was unwilling to accept her failure. She quickly withdrew the knife from Xavia’s arm and pounced on Chloe. 

Fortunately, Chloe reacted quickly. Besides, the security guards, who were on patrol, happened to be passing by. They soon subdued Ellie. 

“It’s all because of you. You ruined my life! If it weren’t for you, I’d be the boss of Marketing when Ms. Wendy left. Do you know how long and how hard I worked to pass the interview and get hired? “Now, not only did Fairlight fire me, but other companies are also refusing to hire me. I’m the only one supporting my family. You just want to force me down a desperate end! 

“Are you satisfied now?!” Ellie roared desperately and complained about how unfair God was. 

‘I suffered so much and worked so hard while this b*tch got here less than half a year ago. How could she be on par with me?’ 

However, Chloe could not be bothered with Ellie right now. She took off her coat and draped it on 

Xavia’s bleeding wound. With shaky fingers, she quickly called 911 

After the doctor’s emergency treatment, Xavia’s wound was pronounced non-fatal But she was a leukemia patient. Something might have easily gone wrong. Even a simple surgery took four hours. 

After Joseph learned about the news, he came to the surgery room and waited outside with Chloe. 

When the doctor came out of the surgery room, the doctor advised Chloe, “The patient’s condition is stable now, but you should’ve taken care of her given that she’s a patient with a special case. You should be more attentive toward her. What’s more, she took a blow for you. No matter if you’re friends or family, you should be grateful to her.” 

Chloe hung her head in guilt. “Okay, I understand. Thank you, doctor.” 

Maybe she should not have thought so badly of Xavia. 

‘If it weren’t for Xavia today, the person lying in the surgery room right now would be me’ 

Joseph noticed Chloe’s emotion and hugged her shoulder. “You are not to blame for this.” 

Chloe sighed, her feelings complicated. “I know that. But if it weren’t for me, Xavia wouldn’t have gotten hurt…” 

Joseph frowned slightly. His dark deep-set eyes blinked as he dwelled on some unknown. thoughts. 

Chloe held his hand. “Let’s go and buy some food for Xavia. She can then have something to eat when the anesthesia wears off and she wakes up.” 

“Okay.” 

While buying the food, Chloe told Joseph that Xavia had asked them for help in taking care of Oreo. 

Joseph remained composed. “I’ll leave the decision to you.” 

Chloe chuckled and leaned her head on his shoulder. “I’m glad to have you with me” 

They bought some light dishes and nutritious soup for Xavia before returning to the ward.
