Chapter 343 Do You Like This Sort of Present
He used great force, and Chloe’s body stiffened from the pain. She kicked him strenuously but he grabbed her ankle and easily gained control over her.
He absent-mindedly gazed at the bloodstained teeth mark on her neck with enjoyment. “Do you like this sort of present?”
“You bastard!” Chloe could not accept this kind of humiliation, so she resisted him with all her might.
Suddenly, Emily broke into the room with Lucas behind her. When they witnessed this scene, their eyes widened in shock. Emily angrily pulled Joseph away and shielded Chloe behind her.
Joseph did not continue pestering Chloe, simply glancing at her coldly and left. Lucas then regained his wits and hurriedly followed Joseph. After they left, Emily sighed in relief before putting a plaster on Chloe’s wound.
“Is he a dog? Why did he do this?”
Chloe held her neck with her head lowered. “Stop talking about him.”
Downstairs, Lucas drove in another car.
Sitting in the back seat, Joseph leaned back. He shot his cold glare at a sneaky-looking woman through the car window. She was trying to sneak into the Johnson Group building through the back door.
Ava appeared dejected and depressed. She was vastly different from her previous appearance. She was now no longer the dignified, rich young lady and instead looked like a miserable. person who had been abandoned. Her eyes were full of wicked schemes.
“Drive.”
Joseph closed his eyes and planned on ignoring this. I’ll let Icarus handle this mess since she’s going to marry him.’
“But Mr. Joseph… Ava seems to be holding a bottle of acid.”
Joseph’s eyes instantly flew open, looking toward Ava. His subsided anger surged up again. ” Bring her here.”
Lucas looked frightened before he got out of the car to bring Ava to Joseph.
Ava was forcefully dragged to the car. When she saw the noble gentleman in front of her, fear was written in her eyes. “M-Mr. Joseph, what do you want? I haven’t done anything.”
“What’s that in your hand?”
“Nothing. It’s just a drink…”
“Okay, go ahead and drink it then.”
Ava was so scared that her face turned pale. “No, I won’t ever do this again. I won’t find trouble with Chloe anymore…”
Joseph sized up Ava’s outfit and harrowed his eyes slightly. “Why did you come back from Docwood?”
“I-I came back for a gathering with my friends.”
He raised his brows. “Are you sure you’re holding a drink?”
“Yes…”
Losing patience, Joseph snatched the bottle Ava tried to hide behind her, unscrewed it, and poured the liquid on her exposed thigh.
“Ah!”
The deep corrosion sent excruciating pain through Ava. She screamed piteously, and the skin of her thigh turned black. If that bottle of liquid had been splashed on Chloe, it would cause vehement harm.
