Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400 Another Person’s Fingerprints 

After pressing the send button, Xavia did not stay and left with Megan. 

Approximately ten minutes later, Chloe returned to the pet hospital. 

The doctor carefully placed a bloodstained fruit knife into a bag and handed it to Chloe. 

“Thank you,” she said gratefully. 

The doctor smiled and said, “A few assistants and I have touched this knife, so I’m not sure if you can still extract fingerprints from it. You should hurry and send it to the forensics. laboratory.” 

Having encountered people of all kinds in his line of work, he could easily discern those who genuinely treated dogs with sincerity. 

“All right, goodbye,” Chloe replied. 

Earlier that morning, Chloe had already contacted the forensics lab. Now, she would deliver the fruit knife and await the results. If they got back some fingerprints, it would prove her innocence and help them identify the true culprit. 

The lab mentioned that the process would take three days and told her to come back then. Chloe agreed as she had a business trip out of town during these few days. Upon her return, she would come back for the results. 2 

Joseph was busy well into the night, with many employees at Fairlight working overtime. 

Lucas was among them. He glanced at the glowing sky outside the window. Realizing that dawn was only an hour away, he said, “Mr. Joseph, leave the remaining trivial matters to us. You should go back and rest.” 

Rubbing his temples, Joseph picked up his phone, which had been sitting in the corner, and saw the video of Toto waking up. He then opened his chat conversation with Chloe, but there was no message from her. 

His thin lips tightened. ‘How could this dumbo be so heartless?’ he thought. 

Lucas caught a glimpse of the video Xavia had sent and hesitated over whether to inform Joseph about Chloe visiting Toto. On one hand, he felt guilty for secretly contacting Chloe. On the other hand, he was worried about getting scolded. 

After pondering for a few minutes, Lucas looked at the man exuding a strong aura and ultimately decided to keep it a secret. He could not quite grasp Joseph’s thoughts, so it was best to act cautiously. 

Xavia got home late as well. She met up with Icarus and was shocked to learn that he was going abroad. He informed her that he had plans to go abroad for business, and the duration of his absence could range from six months to two or three years. 

She found it unacceptable. After all, there was one matter that only Icarus could handle. 

Xavia gritted her teeth and said, “I’ll introduce you to someone. You can do business with him. and I guarantee that you’ll learn a lot from him.” 

Icarus firmly refused, “I want to start my own business, not be someone else’s worker.” 

“Do you believe that establishing your own business is a simple matter? Even if things go well, it may take at least half a year to make a modest start. But what if things don’t go according to plan? Do you think Chloe will continue to wait for you?” 

A hint of hesitation crossed Icarus’ face. “I know what I’m doing.”
