Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 709

They arrived at a high-end nursing home in Docwood. Noah located the supervisor and said, "Hello, I’m Noah Sullivan. We spoke on the phone?"

"Oh, Mr. Noah, I've been expecting you. Please, come with me," the supervisor said and led them to the visiting lounge. Pointing to an elderly man playing card games not far away, he said, "The one gentleman in the brown jacket is the person you're looking for."

Chloe spotted a silver-haired man in his early sixties. He looked energetic and kind, but the shrewdness in his eyes told her that he was not someone to trifle with.

Raising an eyebrow, Noah said, "This person used to work for the royal family."

"What about now?"

"He hasn't appeared around the royal family for many years. He must have retired."

"Should we talk to him?"

"Of course."

Noah turned to the supervisor and said, "Could you bring him to us? We need a quiet place to talk."

Felix Pierce followed the supervisor into the chess room. When he saw Noah and Chloe, he frowned skeptically.

"Please take your time. I'll give you guys some space."

After the supervisor left, Felix asked, "And you two are?"

"Hello, Mr. Felix. We're from Exotic Star. We’ve come to discuss something with you." Noah smiled lightly as he extended a hand.

Felix glanced at him but did not shake Noah's hand. Instead, he took a seat and said cautiously, "I don't know you."

After all these years, he was now willing to atone? What horseshit. If he truly harbored any guilt, he would not have disappeared for so long. Calling it a case of belated action would be generous. Luciana had been dead for so many years, and though he said he was willing to atone, all he could offer now were empty words and polite gestures. It was hard to believe he felt any true remorse.

A person with even a hint of guilt would not have stayed hidden for so long.

Chloe's eyes welled up with tears, feeling deep anger and injustice for her mother. She looked at Felix and said, "Save up and buy yourself a coffin. After all, you won't live much longer to atone for your sins."

She firmly believed that evildoers would face the consequences of their actions sooner or later.

Chloe did not want to say more, fearing that she would lose control of her emotions. Understanding her feelings, Noah took her hand, and without giving Felix another glance, led her out of the nursing home.

After they were gone, Felix sped off to the royal castle. As soon as he entered, he saw Joseph sitting on the sofa. When he glanced around but did not see the person he was looking for, he asked, "Mr. Joseph—"

"He's upstairs on the phone," Joseph said, cutting Felix short.
