Chapter 325 Wish You Luck in Finding a Lover
Joseph’s long eyelashes kept the gloomy glint in his dark eyes hidden. At the same time, hist voice was extremely cold. “She isn’t worth me going through so much trouble.”
‘Her body is filthy. I won’t allow her to come back unless she begs me. I won’t be so forgiving toward her as I was to her before, let alone make her the madam of the Whitman family.’
Harold, who was lying on the floor, was overcome by anger. Holding his heart, his expression. turned unpleasant before he fainted for real.
He blacked out because of his fury.
When Chloe got home, she was physically and mentally exhausted. She fell asleep and only woke up at dawn the next day.
She glanced through her schedule and saw that she had promised to accompany Icarus to go and see a doctor for his scar that day. She scheduled the appointment for the afternoon and then texted Icarus to remind him about it. That way, he would not forget about the appointment.
Chloe was not that busy that morning, so she had a meeting with her employees to discuss their salary raise. At three o’clock in the afternoon, she went to the hospital with Icarus.
“By the way, how has work been lately?” She pretended to raise the question casually.
Icarus looked taken aback, his gaze gloomy under his gold-rimmed glasses, but it disappeared as soon as it appeared. “It’s fine. I ran into some issues but they’re resolved now.”
She nodded. It seemed like he did not know it was all Joseph was doing. Perhaps it was for the
better.
The elderly doctor in glasses read Icarus’ skin report before stating, “It’s not very serious. We can make the scar less visible, but it’ll be very difficult if you want to get rid of it completely.”
“How long will it take?”
“I can’t put down a definite timeline. It depends on the patient’s level of cooperation.”
Chloe nodded. “Okay, we’ll do our best.”
She then picked up a packet of ointment from the dispensary and handed it to Icarus. “The instructions for the ointment are clearly stated on the boxes. Make sure to apply them on time every day.”
Laughter escaped Icarus. “Scars will slowly fade with time.”

“That’s true but at least this aids the process. If not, we can try lasers. But we can’t eliminate it fully, so let’s use the easier treatment first.”
Icarus nodded, determined to not make her efforts go to waste regardless of whether they were effective or not.
They walked out of the hospital side-by-side when a woman in a sunhat and sunglasses suddenly ran into Chloe.
“Are you blind? Why didn’t you step aside when you saw me coming in?”
The woman immediately started complaining though she was the one in the wrong. As she scolded Chloe angrily, displeasure dawned on Icarus’ face.
“You were the one who knocked into her. What nonsense!”
“Are you standing up for her? Are you her lover?”
When Chloe heard the familiar voice, she smacked away the finger that was almost poking at her face. “Jane, are you stalking me?”
Since she had been recognized so quickly, Jane took off her sunglasses and stopped pretending. She cracked a sneer before shooting Icarus a sidelong glance. “Is he your new lover?”
“Why? Are you lonely? Do you want me to recommend a few to you?”
“No, thank you. I can get whichever men I want.”
“All right, I wish you luck in finding a lover!”
Chloe’s composure infuriated Jane, and her neck flushed from fury. “Why are you so smug? Joseph dumped you just like he did me.
“Hmph! I believe he never dumped you as you two were never together.”
