Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 616

After the doctor finished discussing Joseph’s condition with Lucas, Lucas turned to Chloe and said, "He has a fractured rib and extensive back injuries, but overall, it's nothing serious. It'll take around two weeks for him to recover. But with Mr. Joseph's constitution, he may recover even faster."

Chloe let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Thank you so much, doctor."

"We ran into the masked woman when we arrived," Lucas said.

"Did she escape?"

"She ran toward the mountain. Vince has already sent some people to look for her."

The mountain was not large, but it was slippery after the rain, making it difficult to traverse. With the approaching winter, even an ordinary person would struggle to endure a day, let alone Vanya. They were confident that she could only hold out for two or three days.

Chloe was puzzled and asked, "Is Vince an employee of Fairlight or the Whitman Group?" She did not recall seeing him before.

"He's neither," Lucas replied.

"Then he’s…?"

"I'm not very sure either." Lucas scratched his head. "I only handle Mr. Joseph's work-related matters. I don't get involved in anything else."

Chloe did not inquire further and said, "You stay here with Joseph. I’m going to go."

"Aren't you going to wait until Mr. Joseph wakes up?" Lucas was surprised.

"He's out of danger now, and I'm not a doctor. There's no point in staying."

"But he was injured because of you," Lucas said, unable to understand Chloe's lack of empathy. In usual dramas, when a woman encounters a man who risks his life to protect her, should she not be deeply moved and burst into tears?

"I just wanted to ask about Joe's condition," Xavia said with a helpless expression, pretending to be hurt by Chloe's words.

"Do you not have legs or a mouth of your own?" Chloe retorted, sensing that Xavia was looking to stir up trouble.

Xavia stared at Chloe and suddenly covered her mouth, laughing coyly. "Are you jealous because I came to see Joe?"

Chloe could not help but laugh at Xavia’s words. She pointed at the woman with a serious expression on her face and said, "If anyone should be feeling jealous, it should be you. After all, I'm married to Joseph, whereas you...can only rely on your pregnancy to secure your position. How pathetic."

There was no denying that this struck a nerve with Xavia. She and Joseph had known each other for seven years and were together for five, yet Joseph had never mentioned marrying her. On the other hand, Chloe and Joseph had gotten married only after one day of knowing each other. The swiftness of their marriage was truly incredible, and it was difficult for Xavia to fathom how someone as mature and composed as Joseph could have impulsively entered a marriage.

"The process doesn't matter. From a broader perspective, it doesn't matter if he loved you before. What matters is who he loves now." Xavia took out a set of car keys from her bag and waved them at Chloe. "A single identity card can only get one customized car, and I have one too."
