Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 520

Joseph squinted slightly and said to Samuel, "Hang up."

"Sure." Without hesitation, Samuel ended the call and tossed his phone onto the couch.

"You think someone swapped out the recorder?" Gabriel asked curiously. They were all aware of what happened with Hazel earlier today, and they all felt it somewhat mysterious.

"She's dead. There's no way for me to find out, so I'm not sure," Joseph replied, pinching his brow in frustration. He glanced at his dark phone and felt annoyed.

'She's pretty audacious. Not a word from her all night. I might have been too lenient with her lately.'

Sensing Joseph's sour mood, Nathan sat next to him with a drink in hand. "Come on. We don’t meet up often, so let's enjoy ourselves."

Joseph's mind was filled with Chloe. He had no interest in light-hearted banter and snapped coldly, "Shut up."

"Is a woman worth all this trouble?" Gabriel was puzzled, his delicate and effeminate face showing bewilderment.

He could not understand how his good brother had changed so drastically, and he did not see any charm in Chloe. She was just slightly prettier and had a better temperament. Was it not an acknowledged philosophy that women were like clothes while brothers were like limbs?

Joseph dropped his proud demeanor and earnestly said in a low voice, "You don't understand. When you get married, you'll understand that there should always be a woman in the family."

"I’ll never marry anyway, right, Sam?" Gabriel raised an eyebrow at the man who was throwing darts. "We can keep each other company when the need arises."

"Get lost. I'm not into dudes," Samuel retorted.

"If you're thinking about Chloe, just call her," Nathan advised helplessly, "Most problems can be resolved if you just humble yourself a little."

Something flickered across Joseph's eyes. "Tomorrow, I'll have someone investigate why she went to the hospital."

In the end, Joseph let go of looking into the reason Chloe went to the hospital.

After that, Nathan said that when most people were talking about what a friend had said, they were usually talking about themselves. This fueled Joseph's discontent, and he arranged for a renowned herbalist to visit Chloe the next day. He heard that irregular menstruation could affect future childbearing, and he wanted her to have a healthy body so that they could have a child together.

At an estate in Docwood, Preston stared at the man before him. Beads of cold sweat formed on his forehead as if he were making a crucial decision.

"If you can make a copy of the confidential documents from the Whitman Group's safe and give them to me, I'll help you establish a new office. It's a foolproof deal, and you won't incur any losses. This is an opportunity you can't afford to miss," the man urged.

Preston gritted his teeth and firmly refused, "I no longer have a security pass. I can't get in."

Seeing through his hesitation, the man skillfully persuaded, "I believe you have other ways to get in. The Whitmans have already cast you aside, so you need not feel guilty."
