Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 501

Thankfully, Lucas got there in time and instructed the security guards to drive the reporters away. He then led her to the safety of the elevator.

"I'm afraid those reporters won't budge for the day. You’ll have to leave through the back door later."

Chloe knitted her brows slightly. "Got it. Is Joseph very busy today?"

Lucas nodded firmly. "Yes, he's been having meetings with the executives. Someone opposes the motion of dismissing Preston from the board. They think it's bad for Fairlight’s reputation."

"Yes, it kind of is,” Chloe replied honestly.

Lucas gave her a strange look. 'I wasn’t expecting her to be so kind. Octavia has targeted her many times, yet she doesn’t hold a grudge against Octavia's family.'

"Dismissing Preston is ideal but it'd be better to do it quietly and not let everyone learn about it."

Preston and his family were ungrateful pests. They leeched off Joseph but never once showed gratitude toward him. Joseph might as well give up such relatives.

Lucas was struck speechless. He felt that he had been overthinking.

An idea suddenly popped into Chloe’s mind. She inevitably murmured, "Let everyone learn about it…"

Given his intelligence, It was a piece of cake for Joseph to secretly drive Preston and his family out of the Whitman Group. This large mess was undoubtedly created for outsiders to witness.

‘So this is all a scheme to make Joseph fall out with Harold…’

Chloe calmed herself and walked to the door of the office. When she raised her hand to knock, she heard conversation within the office.

"You’re heartless, Joseph. It's fine for you to dismiss Jonathan from the board, but now you want to get rid of Preston, your own uncle, too? Aren't you afraid of public condemnation?"

"Are you here to seek justice for Preston?"
