Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 585

It was a public event and there were a lot of people.

Otto arrived wearing a coffee-colored windcoat. His distinctive appearance and slender figure made him stand out in the crowd. When Chloe noticed him seated next to the collaborating party for the project, she squeezed Joseph's hand and said, "Will he say something inappropriate?"

"That's exactly what I want," Joseph replied as he smirked, giving her hand a reassuring pat. "Don't worry, today’s our opportunity to strike back."

Chloe nodded firmly, her eyes gleaming. "I believe in you."

After Joseph took the stage, Icarus entered through the main entrance and settled in a seat behind Chloe. She noticed him after about five minutes but she was not too surprised. "I thought you had gone back abroad."

Although Icarus was not as renowned in the financial industry as Joseph, he was considered a promising talent. It was appropriate for him to attend such a large-scale press conference.

"No, I'll be staying in Aesper for a while," he replied with a refined smile.

The three business partners—Winston, Murphy, and Silas—turned to look at Otto and playfully remarked, "We heard that Brairlake has been flourishing and is developing plots of land one after another. You make us proud."

"Us? This is all clearly because of Mr. Joseph."

"Ah, you're right. I'm such an idiot."

"We're merely investors. Mr. Joseph is the one in charge of the technology."

Otto waved his hand dismissively. "We're just lucky. It's nothing worth mentioning. But I have heard some rumors regarding this project. I'm unsure if it's appropriate to discuss them."

"What is it? Just speak your mind."
