Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 480

Lucas touched his nose. "Yes, I did. You’re always calling Mr. Joseph a jerk, Emily. I wanted to prove that he isn't."

Chloe could not quite understand. Lucas' help did not seem to affect Emily at all. Instead, he seemed to have helped her vent her anger.

Joseph had not arrived. She sent him a message, but he said he needed another hour or two.

Since they had to wait for him, Chloe and Emily decided to stroll around the other project sites. However, they crossed paths with Noah not long after they started off.

Chloe’s eyes lit up. "This is perfect. I have something to discuss with you."

Noah had a clean and handsome face. He gave off the vibe of a gentle spring breeze, and he often carried a faint smile that made people feel warm and comfortable.

"Sure, go ahead."

Chloe explained the situation in detail, her tone earnest. "That jewelry was left to me by my mother, and they’re very important to me. I hope you’ll help me find them."

Noah fell silent for a while then said in a voice that was clear and pleasant to the ears, "We receive a large number of regular jewelry items every month, and they’re all kept together. Besides the store's name, do you have any pictures of these specific pieces?"

"I don't, but I can draw sketches for you. I remember what they look like."

"All right, draw them for me and I'll have my people look into it."

"Thank you, Noah!" Chloe said earnestly, her voice rising with excitement and her eyes filling with hope and joy.

Noah met her gaze but slowly averted his eyes. Unfortunately, the jewelry was destined not to be found, not for the moment at least. That could only be considered once she returned to the Sullivans.

"I'll be staying here for a few days, and there's a pen and paper in my room. If you have the time, you can come and draw the sketches for me now, and I'll see if they ring a bell."

Chloe hesitated. It was not appropriate for a man and woman to be alone together.

As if he could read her mind, Noah said, "My bodyguard will be there too."

"All right then," Chloe said before turning to Lucas, "Can you send Em home?"

Lucas glanced at Noah through squinted eyes.

Seeing Lucas' reluctance, Chloe said, "I'll tell Joseph about it. It's not like we're going to do something bad."

"All right then," Lucas said and took Emily away.

Suddenly, Noah asked, "Why did you sell the jewelry?"

"I needed money," she replied truthfully.
