Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 465

Chapter 465 The Victim Is Guilty 

Noah met Joseph’s gaze, looking very embarrassed. He then apologized to Chloe again. 

Chloe was fine with this explanation. She found his actions reasonable. She had no powerful background, and she was just an ordinary person who thought it normal for him to save her because of the Whitmans. 

Harold picked up his teacup and took a sip. “Okay, we can’t blame Noah for this. They suffer a great loss in this show. What’s more, Exotic Star’s reputation was pulled down.” 

Although Noah claimed that the Whitmans had taken care of Exotic Star, it was not the case at all. The Whitmans had suffered losses for several consecutive years. Of course, they could not help others. It was merely because the Sullivans thought highly of the former. 1 

Secondly, the Sullivans were humble and sincere. Hence, the Whitmans should let bygones be bygones. Harold asked Noah and Desmond to stay for dinner. 

Two old men went upstairs to play chess, and the young people stayed in the living room to chat. However, something got into Joseph. He behaved like he was injured as he asked Chloe to feed him grapes and water from time to time. He was not the least bit shy in front of Noah. 

On the surface, Noah wore no expression. He was as gentle and docile as a sheep. 

Before long, Octavia came with a group of noble ladies. She had heard the news from Tyson, so she came under the guise of visiting Chloe. The others came with the same goal in mind as they brought along gifts. 

It became quite noisy because there were a lot of people, the atmosphere becoming lively and noisy. 

Noah smiled broadly and suggested to Joseph, “Why don’t we go upstairs to play chess too?” 

Joseph’s eyes became profound. “Sure.” 

When Octavia saw Joseph enter the chess room, the amiable smile on her face was gone in an instant. She said to Chloe, “You’ve been in the limelight recently. I think you should keep a low profile. Why did you join the jewelry show?” 

“Yeah, you should stay home to serve your man and be a good housewife. A woman’s greatest responsibility is to take care of her man.” 

“Ms. Chloe, don’t be angry at us for criticizing you. Since Mr. Harold approves of you, you should stay home obediently. Don’t show yourself in public. It serves you right to be targeted by the robbers.” 

“Are you saying that I deserved to be kidnapped?” 

“Of course. You wore such a short gown yesterday. Of course, the robbers saw you at a glance.” 

“Are you saying that women who are taken advantage of are because of that reason?” 

“Yeah. Otherwise, how could you explain why that happened to them instead of others?” 

Chloe was rendered speechless. They were all women. How could they claim that the victims were guilty? 

“We want the best for you. It isn’t a good thing to be too showy.” 

Octavia raised her chin arrogantly, wanting to vent all her anger on Chloe after suffering so much because of Joseph.
