Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 485

Chloe felt a little tense. She glanced sideways at Joseph.

Joseph frowned deeply. “Where is she?"

"She's getting an X-ray. The bucket hit her arm."

"Was the bucket dropped on purpose or merely an accident?"

Patrick came over to explain. "We first thought it was an accident since no one was around. But after checking the nearby security footage and questioning a few witnesses, we found a suspicious worker. It could've been staged."

Something heavy weighed on Chloe. She wished it was just an accident.

"Did you locate the worker?"

"We have people out looking for them."

Following that, Xavia was wheeled out by a doctor, a large bruise on her arm.

"She got lucky. The force was spread out, so no broken bones. She just needs an ice pack."

Xavia looked rather pitiful in her long white dress. With her pale and gentle face, she was the picture of vulnerable beauty.

Chloe's eyes turned dull, and she looked down to hide her emotions.

Joseph went straight to the point. "Why were you on Peace Street?"

Xavia appeared composed, but there was a note of defensiveness in her voice. "After Lucas informed Mrs. Octavia and me to leave, we went our separate ways. I went to Peace Street because of the music concert there." She took out a concert ticket from her bag, throwing Joseph a look filled with blame and resentment. It was as if they were a couple having an argument, with the woman blaming the man.

Chloe felt like a third wheel. Xavia did not say much, but the atmosphere was making her brood.

Joseph gave the ticket a cursory glance before he said in a business-like manner, "Rest well. My family will cover your medical bills."

Xavia was struck dumb. "But I—"

"Lucas." Joseph cut her off.

"Yes, Mr. Joseph?"
