Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 481

Chloe stood to the side, eager for a good show.

Joseph claimed that the resort was the joint property of both Fairlight and Exotic Star, but Exotic Star had a bigger stake in it. So, Octavia's statement would simply raise criticisms from Joseph.

Octavia became tongue-tied upon seeing Noah, she did not want to be embarrassed in public either. She braced herself and blurted out, "How are two suites enough? Why didn't you build more?"

"That's my business. If you want in, consider investing."

Octavia undoubtedly did not have the money to do this. Her face turned livid. "I was just giving a suggestion. Young people these days don't even take advice from their elders."

"Who are you to do so? I don't even know you. Why should I listen to anything you have to say?" Noah shot back, but he did not look mad. It looked like he did not know her at all.

A lot of people came and went. Xavia felt awkward and was a little terrified of Noah, so she leaned in and whispered to Octavia, "Let's just wait at the cafe as the receptionist suggested. Let’s not cause trouble for Joe. We don't want people talking behind our backs."

Octavia's heart skipped a beat, and she shot Chloe a nasty look before heading to the cafe with Xavia.

When Chloe saw the mean look, she felt very aggrieved. She had remained silent the whole time. Was she not allowed to simply enjoy the show?

Noah and Chloe got into the elevator. Suddenly, she noticed a strand of white hair on his head and felt like touching it.

Noah blinked. "What's up?"

"You have a strand of white hair."

"Pull it out for me." While talking, he moved closer and lowered his head.

Joseph was swamped with work, so he did not check his phone. When he got into the car to go to the resort, his driver said to him, "Sir, your phone rang a few times. I think someone texted you."

Joseph simply grunted in response, his eyes closed. After a few moments, he took his phone out of his pocket. He had two texts: one from Lucas and the other from Chloe. Both were saying the same thing—Chloe had gone to Noah’s room to sketch designs.

Joseph's face darkened. 'Noah’s taking advantage of my absence to get close to her. Lucas knows Noah is not a nice man, but he let the dumbo go anyway.'

"Step on it. Get to the resort in half an hour."

The driver was torn. "Sir, the journey usually takes an hour and a half."

"You can either drive faster or get out and let me drive. Pick one."
