Chapter 415 Go See Benjamin When You Have the Time
“I don’t know. Benjamin didn’t tell me,” Chloe replied.
“You should find some time to ask,” Joseph suggested.
She sensed something amiss. “What’s wrong?”
Joseph set down his utensils and scrutinized the woman sitting in front of him, carefully examining her features.
Desmond was old, so it posed a challenge to notice any resemblance between him and the twenty-four-year-old Chloe.
Averting his
gaze, Joseph said lightly. “It’s nothing. I’m just curious.”
“Do you also think I look like Mr. Desmond’s daughter?” Chloe asked.
“I don’t know what his daughter looks like,” Joseph replied.
He was not familiar with the Sullivans. In the past, Desmond was not the only Sullivan in his family. He had a brother named Dominic Sullivan. Dominic had a good relationship with the Gunters, and it was through his introduction that Desmond got to know the Gunters. However, Dominic passed away a few years ago. Joseph had even attended his funeral.
Chloe rested her chin on her hand. “I haven’t seen her either.”
To be honest, she really wanted to see Desmond’s daughter and determine just how similar they looked. But for now, she was not particularly close with Noah, and it would be impolite to make such a request.
Joseph’s gaze returned to her face and he asked, “Do you have a photo of your mom?”
“My mom?”
“Yeah.”
She took out her phone and searched through it, murmuring with some confusion, “Why does everyone want to see my mother’s photo…”
First, it was Noah, and now, it was Joseph.
“What are you muttering about?” he asked.
“Nothing.” She handed him the phone. “Here. This is my mother.”
In the photograph, a young woman with delicate features emanated an aura of elegance and
charm, exuding the essence of a lady from a wealthy family. Joseph studied the photo for a few more seconds and commented, “You two look alike.”
“Right?”
“You’re not as elegant as your mom, though,” he noted.
“Well, I admit that,” she replied.
Her mother was the typical beauty, while Chloe’s vibrant personality added a touch of liveliness, differing their temperaments from one another.
In the afternoon, Joseph intended to accompany Chloe to the meet-up venue. However, their paths did not align, and Chloe did not want to trouble him, so she decided to take a cab there.
on her own.
Outside the restaurant, a waiter greeted her and led her to a private room. Icarus had been waiting for some time and immediately stood up upon seeing her, graciously pulling out the chair for her.
“Thank you,” Chloe said, taking her seat. She noticed that the scar on Icarus’ chin had faded, and his leg seemed to have healed. A smile graced her lips involuntarily. “The scar on your face has improved a lot. It’ll fade even more with time.”
Icarus forced a smile. “It’s not a problem. I don’t have any plans to date at the moment.”
She was briefly stunned but skillfully changed the subject. “Have you ordered?”
“Not yet. The menu is on your right,” Icarus replied.
