Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 798

Chloe clenched her fists and stayed calm. "The guy called me a few times before, so I remember the number."

Noah took his gaze off Chloe and turned the steering wheel. "That number doesn't seem like a sales call. Maybe someone has an urgent matter. Why don't you call back to check?"

"That's fine. If it's important, they'll call again."

As soon as she finished speaking, her phone started ringing again, causing a chill to run down her spine. She would surely be busted if she answered Cyrus' call in front of Noah, but what excuse could she use to reject the call?

The vibrating of the phone felt like the music of death—relentless and continuous.

Noah stepped on the brakes, bringing the car to a stop by the roadside. He looked at Chloe and said, "Go ahead and pick it up. It might be something urgent."

At this point, Chloe had no choice but to answer. She reluctantly retrieved her phone from her bag, hoping it would stop ringing. Alas, her wish was not granted. As she held the phone, it continued to buzz.

She looked at the screen and found it was the same number. Under Noah's watchful gaze, she reluctantly answered the call. She took the initiative and coldly asked, "Hello, who’s this?"

There was a pause on the other end, followed by barely audible breathing. A chill ran down Chloe's spine. She knew that Cyrus was doing this on purpose. He was like a predator lurking in the dark, testing his prey's limit.

Noah leaned into Chloe, and in this confined space, he could hear everything the person on the other side of the line said. Chloe froze as her mind raced. The next second, the voice on the other end said, "Hi, I'm Lauda from Riverside Homes. Would you be interested in buying a property here?"

When the sweet and charming voice reached Chloe's ear, she froze. She pulled her phone away from her ear and rechecked the number on the screen. It was Cyrus' number.

Seeing how distracted she looked, Noah took her phone and asked, "Where is Riverside located?"

"The Chandile district. If you'd like to come and take a look, I can drive over and pick you up."

"That’s not necessary. I'll head there when I’m available."

"All right then, thank you for your time."

As the call ended, Chloe put on a smile as she put her phone away. "See? I told you it was that annoying real estate agent."

Noah restarted the car and said languidly, "Chandile is pretty close to Exotic Star. After we get married, we do need a place to call our own. Getting a place there wouldn't be a bad idea."
