"How would I have been able to get away from you if I didn't deceive you?" Chloe’s voice was calm, though tinged with sarcasm.
"How could you be so heartless?"
"And what about you? How could you imprison me and force me to have an abortion? You even tried to make me accept you being with Xavia."
"I can explain that. It's not like what you think."
"Sorry, I'm not interested. I have to go," Chloe said coldly. She averted her gaze and tried to leave.
Unwilling to let her go, Joseph reached out to grab her hand, but Chloe deftly dodged his grasp.
"Mr. Joseph, please mind your manner." Noah came just in the nick of time, positioning himself between Chloe and Joseph.
Chloe and Noah stood close to each other, suggesting their intimate connection. Upon seeing this, Joseph's anger flared up.
He lashed out, "Fuck off."
"Mr. Joseph, I believe Coco made herself very clear. Please step aside," Noah said, his calm demeanor a stark contrast to Joseph's anger.
"Come here," Joseph commanded, ignoring Noah's words while fixing his gaze on Chloe.
When their eyes met, Chloe suddenly smiled. "Do you feel it unfair because I've kept you in the dark all these years?" she questioned.
Joseph's eyebrows furrowed. He admitted that he had felt such emotions. Most importantly, he believed that Chloe was just like him, that they were both waiting for each other and had not forgotten about each other. Her departure was merely a means to find a new place to heal her wounds. It did not mark the end of their relationship.
