Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 95

Chapter 95 Go Apologize to Patterson 

Chloe’s mind went blank for a few seconds, and when she came around to her senses, her first reaction was that there must have been a misunderstanding. 

“I didn’t plagiarize anything. Did you make a mistake, sir?” 

“Even if I made a mistake, do you think Patterson would have made the same mistake? They called me this morning to inform me,” her superior retorted. 

“That’s impossible, I didn’t plagiarize. The latest version was revised according to their requirements. I didn’t even have the chance to plagiarize,” Chloe said. 

“The proposal you submitted to Patterson has a fifty percent similarity to a proposal on the Internet. What do you have to say about that?” her superior said, clearly not believing in her. 

“Submitted…” Chloe suddenly remembered something and picked up the folder stained with coffee to examine it. After scanning through it, she could not believe what she saw. “This isn’t the proposal I revised.” 

“It wasn’t written by you, so it must be someone else who’s framing you, right?” Her superior sneered. 

“It’s not mine. Yesterday, I went out to dinner with everyone, and the proposal was almost complete by then. David offered to handle the final touches as he wasn’t coming with us,” Chloe explained. 

Lily nodded in agreement. “Yes, that’s right. I can vouch for her. Ms. Chloe was with us last night.” 

“Where’s David?” her superior asked. 

David immediately stood up and said, “I swear it has nothing to do with me. I followed Chloe’s instructions and made the revisions before I left to pick up my wife last night.” 

“But you were the only one with the opportunity to make the final changes,” Lily refuted softly. 

“What are you saying? I was working hard in the office while you all were out having fun. Now, you’re blaming me for everything? Besides, the final copy was sent out from Chloe’s email,” David said, “Sir, it really isn’t me.” 

“I didn’t send that email. I was going to send it this morning,” Chloe denied. 

“Really? Why don’t you check your email and see for yourself?” David sneered. 

Everyone nodded in agreement. Chloe turned on her laptop to let her superior check her email. 

After looking through it, her superior’s face turned red with anger. 

It was true that Chloe had not sent an email to Patterson last night. Instead, she had set it to send at seven the next morning. However, there was a link to a website on her desktop. Upon clicking it, the link brought them to an article that was exactly like her proposal. 

Chloe stood frozen in place, her pale face now drained of all color. 

“It wasn’t me… It really wasn’t me,” she whispered. 

Compared to the newly appointed leader who had just joined them a few months ago, her colleagues were more inclined to believe David, who had been working with them. for five years. Apart from Lily, no one believed Chloe. Even the skeptical employees who had initially kept an open mind were now convinced that it was her fault. 

“I told you. She’s too young to be a team leader. She has no real ability,” one employee scoffed. 

“She does have the ability, but not enough to match her current position,” another chimed in. 

“I wonder how she got through the interview,” a third said. 

“Do you not know? Mr. Maurice said it was all about her looks.” 

“Hmm… Looks alone won’t cut it. In some critical moments, you might have to sell your body.” 

Chloe clenched her fists tightly by her side, feeling disappointed as she watched her former colleagues tear off their masks of pretense and heap scorn upon her. 

“Enough. Instead of wasting time with this gossip, let’s think about how we’re going to explain this to Patterson,” their superior snapped, glaring at them before turning to Chloe and issuing a stern command. “You have half a day to come up with a solution. If 

you can’t figure it out, resign on your own accord.” 

“I understand. Not only will I solve this problem, but I’ll also expose the person who did this to me,” Chloe vowed. 

David’s smile froze on his face. He was so angry that he could feel his teeth grinding 

together. He was determined to kick Chloe out, and he would not change his mind now!
