Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255 Mixing Wine and Beer? You’re Quite Something 

The grip on Chloe’s chin was painful, but she maintained a bright smile. “What’s wrong? Is it not acceptable? After all, your heart belongs to Xavia, not me. I’ll step aside and make room for her, and everyone will be happy.” 

“Why?” Joseph’s brows furrowed in anger, and a storm brewed in his icy gaze. “Is offering an apology too much of an inconvenience for you?” 

“Yes,” she replied. 

She had truly dedicated herself to taking care of Oreo and Toto, even going the extra mile to prepare homemade snacks for them. She treated the two dogs as her own and never scolded. them, even when they misbehaved. Despite being exhausted after work, she still made it a point to take them for walks. Yet, whenever something went wrong, it was all her fault. 

Could he not have given her the benefit of the doubt and waited for the truth to come to light? Must he embarrass her in front of his ex-girlfriend? She had feelings too, and his actions had wounded her deeply. 

Joseph’s gaze shifted downward, his penetrating eyes scanning Chloe’s unwavering 

determination. His anger reached its peak, causing his lips to tremble ever so slightly before curling into a derisive smile. “There’s no need for us to take a break. If you wish to break. up, then let’s break up. I have no shortage of women. 

“Remember, it was me who dumped you,” he added. 

Chloe’s face turned pale, a profound sense of sorrow engulfing her. At that moment, she realized that she had never truly found her way into his heart. 

“Since that’s the case, please let go of me, Mr. Joseph. I have work to do,” she said. 

Without waiting for Joseph to react, she pushed him aside and turned to leave. 

Witnessing Chloe’s departure from Joseph’s office, Lucas assumed that they had reconciled. He picked up a cup of tea and prepared to bring it inside. But just as his right foot entered the office, he saw Joseph punching the wall, blood instantly streaming from between his fingers. 

“Get out!” Joseph’s voice boomed with 

anger. 

Lucas’ hands trembled, and the teacup nearly slipped from his grasp. ‘Goodness, gracious!” 

It became evident to Lucas that the situation had escalated significantly. Not only had they failed to reconcile, but Joseph’s anger had also reached a boiling point. 

Lucas suppressed his fear and retreated with the tea, gently closing the door behind him. He stood there, contemplating whether he should seek further information from Chloe. However, before he could make a decision, the sound of more objects being smashed Inside the office reached his ears, solidifying his belief that Joseph’s anger was truly uncontainable this time. 

Trembling, Lucas quickly made up his mind to find Chloe in the marketing department. 

To his surprise, he was informed that Chloe had taken a leave of absence. Lucas realized that the situation was even more serious than he had imagined. Feeling helpless, he suddenly remembered that he had Emily’s number. With his habitual efficiency in office matters, he swiftly took out his phone and sent a voice message to Emily. 

Right after Emily finished listening to the voice message from Lucas, she received a phone call from Chloe. 

“Come out and have a few drinks with me,” Chloe said.
