Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 449

Chapter 449 Promise Me That You Won’t Leave Me 

When they arrived at the hospital, they found Xavia was confined to a separate ward. Despite its small size, it had everything she could need. It was clear that Harold had simply locked her away without mistreating her. 

Seeing Joseph walk in, Xavia was quick to put two and two together. Vanya must have tipped. off Octavia. 

“Joe, I can’t stay cooped up here. The meds I need are only available at Dahlia Hospital. You’ve got to get me out,” she pleaded. 

Chloe blinked and watched the whole drama unfold, feeling a hint of satisfaction bubble up within her. She couldn’t help but silently cheer Harold on, ‘Way to go, Grandpa!” 

“Okay,” Joseph replied, “I’ll get you out of here,” He had to admit Xavia was right. This private hospital didn’t have the variety of medications and equipment that Dahlia Hospital boasted. 

At his words, Xavia swiftly got out of bed and followed him out. Suddenly, as if she just noticed Chloe, she smiled warmly. “Oh, Ms. Chloe, I didn’t notice you there.” 

Chloe smirked a little but didn’t bother to respond. 

As they made their way out, the hospital’s director appeared, looking frantic. “Mr. Joseph, your grandfather has made it very clear that Xavia shouldn’t leave the hospital. Please, don’t make this difficult for us.” 

“And you think you can treat her leukemia here?” Joseph retorted. 

“No, we can’t. But her condition is stable at the moment, and she doesn’t need chemo for now. Plus, your grandfather insisted on all her future check-ups being done here. I hope your understand our situation, Mr. Joseph,” the director explained. 

“Well, she can have her check-ups here. But for now, I’m taking her with me. If my grandfather has a problem, he can take it up with me,” Joseph said firmly, leading Xavia out of the hospital. 

Left with no alternative, the director hurriedly reported the situation to Harold. 

Once outside, Xavia glanced at Chloe and spoke gently, “I can get a cab back on my own.” 

Chloe didn’t quite know how to feel about Xavia’s stare, which caused her to furrow her brows slightly. 

“Suit yourself,” was all Joseph said. 

“Oh, by the way, Grandpa still has my ID and stuff,” Xavia mentioned. 

“I’ll have someone deliver them to you,” Joseph assured her. 

“Alright.” 

Without lingering further, Xavia hailed a taxi and was out of sight in no time. 

As Chloe settled into the passenger seat, she raised an eyebrow. “Drop me at the office first, then get her ID from Grandpa.” 

“I’ll have my men get it,” Joseph replied. 

“Fine.” 

“Let’s grab some food first, then I’ll drop you off,” he said. She had not had a decent meal. since yesterday afternoon. 

“No need. I’ll just grab something at the office,” Chloe countered. Earlier, she had received some feedback from Hugo’s secretary and had a bunch of matters to sort out. She did not want to waste any more time. 

“No, your stomach is weak,” Joseph insisted. With a firm grip on the steering wheel, he started the car. 

Letting out a sigh, Chloe gave in and decided to review some documents on her phone while Joseph drove. 

Meanwhile, Joseph interpreted her silence as sulking. ‘Is she jealous because I went to see Xavia? 

Oddly enough, he wasn’t annoyed but amused. He couldn’t help but admire Nathan for managing so many women it was a skill in itself. 

When Chloe saw his smile, she found it strange. “What’s so funny?” 

“I’m laughing because you’re jealous,” Joseph admitted, sounding rather affectionate. 

Chloe’s mouth twitched. “I’m not jealous.” 

“Then why are you so quiet?” 

“I just don’t feel like talking.”
