Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 431

Chapter 431 Noah Is Different From Those Succubi 

Noah turned his head, skillfully concealing the sadness in his eyes while a gentle smile graced his fair face. “I came to see you. This is a signature product named ‘Palette of Emotions’ from a famous candy store. They claim that eating these candies will lift your mood.” 

Chloe accepted the exquisite bag of candies, her brows furrowed in confusion. “Palette of Emotions?” 

“I just watched the replay of the live stream from two days ago,” Noah replied calmly. 

Lately, he had been engrossed in working on a paper and had not spent much time on his electronic devices. Last night, as he surfed the internet after completing his paper, he stumbled upon a replay of Xavia’s live stream. Despite Joseph’s efforts to delete most of the 

comments, a small fraction of them continued to circulate. 

“You came here just to bring me some candy?” Chloe looked at him in astonishment. 

Noah maintained his composure as he fabricated a lie. “I went to buy something on West Street and happened to come across them.” 

Chloe thought she might be overthinking things. Noah was a kind-hearted person and not someone who had nothing better to do. He could not possibly be so concerned about her. 

“Oh, you might not be aware since you just moved here, but West Street is infested with thieves. Be careful when you go there,” Chloe warned. 

“You’re a bit late with that warning. I already fell victim to a thief on my way here,” Noah said 

with a wry smile. 

“Huh?” 

“I lost my wallet. It was most likely stolen by a thief.” 

Chloe’s brows furrowed. “Was there anything important inside?” 

“Besides my ID, there was also an old photo of me and my grandfather which holds great significance to me.” 

Chloe had some knowledge about Noah’s background and pursed her lips. “There will be a night market on West Street tomorrow, and some thieves might try to resell stolen items to secondhand vendors. If your wallet is valuable and luck is on our side, there’s a chance the old photo might still be there.” 

Noah raised an eyebrow. “All right, I’ll try my luck.” 

Chloe nodded. “If I finish work early tomorrow, I can go with you. We can split up and search, making it faster.” 

‘After all, he brought me candy. I have to do something for him as well.’ 

Noah looked up at her, his eyes drooping innocently, his tone half serious and half teasing as he asked, “Have you made up with Mr. Joseph? Will he get angry if you go with me even though we’re just friends?” 

Chloe had no idea why but a classic line that was often used by unscrupulous women popped into her mind: we’re just friends, please don’t get angry. 

She laughed at the gentle and handsome young man before her. She had let her imagination run wild. How could she compare Noah to those succubi? 

“What are you laughing at?” Noah asked in puzzlement as he raised his hand to touch his face. “Is there something on my face?” 

“It’s nothing.” Chloe quickly stifled her laughter, waving her hands dismissively and choosing not to reveal her thoughts 

Noah did not press the matter, but he could not help but notice Chloe’s eyes squinting with joy, resembling a contented little cat. It brought a genuine smile to his own face. It appeared that her inner strength was formidable, and she had not been swayed by Xavia’s manipulative 

tactics 

Noah did not linger for long. After delivering the candies, he bid Chloe farewell and left. Turning the corner outside the company, he came face to face with Lucas, accompanied by a well-dressed woman in black that gave off the air of a bodyguard. 

Lucas often stayed by Joseph’s side and was aware of Noah’s blossoming feelings for Chloe. Although the relationship between Joseph and Chloe had not been officially established, once Joseph deemed it so, Lucas would wholeheartedly believe it. After all, his boss’s judgment of
