Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 417

Chapter 417 I’m Determined to Expose Xavia’s True Nature 

Chloe was stunned. “Why is it important?” 

“In the past decade, a group of outlaws has emerged in the gray zone primarily controlled by Ameria, with Cloude as their secondary base. Their leader’s nickname is Serpent, and his trusted associates often sport a snake tattoo on their feet. However, they seldom engage in activities within Aesper. Can you recall who you’ve had recent conflicts with recently?” 

Chloe did not respond immediately but asked another question, “Have you managed to retrieve any fingerprints from the fruit knife?” 

“Yes, I have some prior engagements today, but I plan to deliver the results to Joseph tomorrow,” Tyson replied. 

“Could you please show them to me first?” Chloe requested. 

Tyson nodded, instructing his colleague to take Icarus outside. He then placed a file before Chloe. “After conducting comparisons, the fingerprints belong to a man in his thirties with a criminal history. Most importantly, he was one of the individuals involved in the kidnapping incident that targeted you and Noah.” 

In essence, it was a meticulously planned criminal case. 

Unsurprised by such findings, Chloe’s expression grew grave as she said, “The only person. I’ve had recent conflicts with is Xavia.” 

Chloe had a hunch that all of these perilous incidents happened after Xavia’s arrival. Although they appeared unrelated to her, no one else seemed to possess a motive except her. Especially when Toto was injured by a mysterious person, Xavia’s inconsistent behavior in the presence of Chloe and Joseph almost confirmed their connection. 

After listening attentively to Chloe’s detailed analysis, Tyson paused and said, “You should discuss this with Joseph. The incident involving Toto could be classified as trespassing and assault with a deadly weapon. If you decide to file a police report, we can summon Xavia for a thorough investigation.” 

Chloe pursed her lips, her pale face masking her emotions. “Understood. I don’t want Joseph to know about the photographs of me and Icarus together. Can you ensure confidentiality?” 

Tyson had no objections. “Certainly, it’s your privacy. As an unrelated party to the case, Joseph will remain unaware of it. However, it’d be wise for you to hire a bodyguard.” 

“You’re right…” 

Chloe left the station and received a call from Joseph. Other than concealing the fact that they were photographed, she recounted today’s events to him in full detail. 

“Wait at the station. I’ll have Lucas pick you up,” Joseph instructed. 

“Okay.” 

Soon, Lucas arrived with two strong men who appeared to be bodyguards. They provided full escort throughout the journey. Chloe arrived at Fairlight, where Joseph thoroughly inspected 

her. 

Her face was pale, but there were no signs of injury or blood. However, precautions needed to be taken, and bodyguards had to be arranged. 

Joseph’s expression turned grim. “Do you think today’s incident has anything to do with Icarus?” 

Chloe realized what he was talking about and said, “I don’t think so. Icarus is just a businessman. How could he know these people?”
