Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448 The Mastermind Is Another Person 

Chloe felt a bit shaky in front of the hulk of a man before them. “Don’t do anything rash, Joseph,” she murmured, “We’re clearly outnumbered.” 

Joseph’s fists clenched, his eyes filled with a chilling emptiness. Apparently, he wasn’t hearing 

her. 

Anxious, Chloe instinctively shielded her stomach with one hand, the other slipping into her bag to grab a can of pepper spray from her bag, ready for whatever came their 

way. 

The Amer buyer glared at them, practically spitting with rage. “What’s your problem?!” 

“Who gave you permission to bring coffins here?” Joseph spat back. 

Emerald Heights was a wealthy neighborhood and highly sought-after for its school district. Property prices had skyrocketed in recent years, making it tough for even the affluent to buy at place. But this man, whose funds to purchase the house were questionable, had turned it into a graveyard. What was he thinking? 

“It’s my house! I can do whatever the hell I want! It’s none of your-” His words cut off as Joseph’s fist connected with his face. 

The man staggered backward, his face red and swelling. Enraged, he grabbed a nearby chair and swung it. Chloe quickly pulled Joseph back, trying to avoid the incoming blow. 

Out of nowhere, Abigail appeared, delivering a beautiful spinning kick to the Amer’s chest. Taking advantage of his disorientation, she snatched the chair from his hand and ruthlessly walloped him with it, subduing him within moments before dragging him over to Joseph. 

Chloe was left astounded. She never expected Abigail to possess such strong combat skills. 

“Who told you to do this?” Joseph’s expression turned icy, his shiny leather shoes pressing down on the Amer’s face, arrogantly crushing him. “Think carefully before you answer. You only get one shot.” 

The once arrogant and conceited man had now transformed into a trembling lamb. “Someone paid me to buy this house, and she told me to bring the coffin. I’m just a worker…” 

“What’s her name?” Joseph asked. 

“I don’t know. Everyone just calls her Van…” the Amer stuttered. 

Joseph’s gaze darkened. “Describe her.” 

“Yes, yes… she’s in her mid-twenties, pointed chin, sharp eyes. She’s skinny and always has goons around her,” he replied. 

Chloe thought of the Masked Woman, and her brow furrowed. “Does she have a snake tattoo on her foot?” 

“I don’t know, I never paid attention…” he admitted. 

Joseph glanced at the coffin. “Are there more coffins in the house?” 

The Amer trembled as he stammered, “She arranged it. It has nothing to do with me. it out for you. If you want the house, I’ll transfer the ownership to you right away.” 

“Is there anything in the coffins?” Joseph asked. 

The Amer understood his meaning and swore, “No! They’re all empty!” 

“How did that woman give you the money?” Joseph pressed further. 

“She gave me a card,” the Amer replied, promptly handing the card over to Joseph. 

“Mr. Joseph, what should we do to him?” Abigail asked respectfully. 

“Take him to complete the transfer and give him some money,” Joseph answered.

Abigail understood his intention. They had to follow legal procedures for the transfer, and giving it as a gift could backfire and cause trouble later. Giving him some cash would make things smoother. 

Chloe and Joseph entered the house, where they indeed found another coffin inside. 

After getting someone to get rid of the coffin, Joseph had someone investigate the information on the card. Surprisingly, it was registered to a man, not a woman. 

Clearly, the mastermind behind the scenes had anticipated Joseph’s investigation and had taken precautions to hide their identity. 

Chloe thought aloud with growing fear, “Could it be the Masked Woman? But why would she do this? We’ve never crossed her, so why would she go to such lengths…” 

Joseph took a drag from his cigarette, the smoke obscuring his handsome face. His voice was low as he stated, “The Amer’s contact might be her, but she’s not the one pulling the strings.” 

The Masked Woman was likely just a pawn in the grand scheme. 

Chloe speculated, “Putting coffins in other people’s houses seems like revenge. perhaps provoke someone in your business dealings?”
