Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 730

Chloe glanced at Lucas and then checked the time. "It's too late. I won't be going."

She was unsure if Callum would be waiting there again, and she had no time to accompany him in another repentance session.

"There's no one else at the house. Only Mr. Harold and Mr. Jasper," Lucas said as if he knew what she was thinking. "Mr. Joseph promised that it won't be like last time."

Still, Chloe insisted, "No, please make sure to schedule the cooking in advance next time. I'm busy, and I'm the Whitmans hired cook.”

Lucas hesitated, knowing Joseph would punish him severely if he gave up.

Refusing to waste her time, Chloe yawned and walked away.

"Wait, Ms. Chloe."

"I already said that I won't go."

"It's not about that. I just want to know if you're still in touch with Emily. If yes, can you please share with me her new number?”

Chloe stopped in her tracks. She looked at Lucas curiously and asked, "Do you like Em?"

Lucas was stunned for a few seconds. He had not expected such a direct question. He blushed as he replied, "I don't know. I just want to keep in touch with her."

"Okay, I’ll give you her number."

Chloe quickly provided Lucas with Emily's phone number. Her friend had been single for so many years, and it was about time for her to find a boyfriend. Although Lucas was Joseph's assistant, Lucas was of good character. She would be very happy if Emily could start a relationship with him.

"Thank you, Ms. Chloe," Lucas said gratefully as he jotted down the number, wondering how to persuade Chloe. Just as Chloe was about to mention the last digit of the number, he bit the bullet and said, "Ms. Chloe, please come to the house with me. Mr. Joseph said that this one meal can be counted as two."

"What kind of drink had such an effect?" Jasper asked, his voice filled with puzzlement.

"It's from a small bottle. I've never seen it in the supermarket. My mom keeps it in her bedroom, and the label’s in a foreign language, so I can't read it."

"Your parents went out of town today?"

"Yeah."

Jasper peered at the two downstairs who were not talking to each other. "Can you give me a bottle of this drink?"

Timothy nodded innocently, "Sure, I'll bring one for you tomorrow."

"No, that’d be too late," Jasper said seriously, "Let's go to your house now and get the drink."
