Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love novel Chapter 96

Chapter 96 They Might Already Be Family 

Chloe got into the cab and told the driver where to go. 

“Oh, you’re going to Patterson. I know that area well,” the driver responded. 

“Please drive faster. I have an urgent matter to attend to,” Chloe requested. 

“All right, I promise you’ll be there in no time!” the driver replied. 

In the next second, another car came around the corner toward them. The driver’s pupils contracted, and he quickly hit the brakes. Unfortunately, they were going too fast and could not stop in time. 

There was a loud crash as the two cars collided. 

Thankfully, both drivers’ reactions were quick. Chloe’s body flew forward a little, but she did not hit the window. 

‘I thought this guy said he was a professional…’ 

“Are you crazy?! Why were you driving so fast?! My employer has a heart condition. Can you afford the consequences if something happens?!” Mateo angrily questioned the driver as he got out of the car. 

The cab driver knew it was his fault. Just when he was about to apologize, his face turned pale when he saw the other car. It was a Lincoln worth millions. 

“I’m toast,” he muttered to himself. 

Chloe got out of the car and looked at the person inside the other car. She was surprised and exclaimed, “Grandpa!” 

When Harold saw that it was her, he smiled brightly, “Chloe? What are you doing here? 

“I’m going to deliver some documents,” she replied, glancing at the cab driver. “I have an urgent matter to attend to, so I told the driver to drive faster. Are you okay, Grandpa? 

“I’m fine. Mateo, don’t give the driver a hard time. Car accidents happen all the time,” Harold said as he beckoned at Chloe. “Come on up. It’s not easy to hail a cab halfway through the journey. Let me give you a ride.”

She did not have time to waste, so she picked up her document folder and got into the 

car. 

“Where are you headed?” 

“Patterson, Grandpa. It’s hard to find parking there. You can just drop me off somewhere nearby.” 

“Why do you have to go out to work at this hour? Hasn’t Joseph assigned you an easier job?” 

Chloe paused for a moment and quickly explained, “Grandpa, you misunderstand. I don’t work at his office.” 

“Then where are you working?” 

“I’m working at Baxon.” 

Harold sat up straight. “That scoundrel didn’t give you a job in his office?” 

Fairlight was at least a publicly listed company. Why would he let his granddaughter-in -law work at a company with a bad reputation like Baxon? 

“No… This isn’t Joseph’s fault.” Chloe struggled to find the right words. “I just don’t want us to be together all the time. After all, women need to have their own careers.” 

“Our family can certainly afford to support you,” Harold said, his voice thick with concern. “I should ask that scoundrel to open a store for you and let you be the boss instead. It’s much easier than your current job, and it’s a career path too.” 

“But being too comfortable might make me lazy,” replied Chloe. 

“If you become lazy, then just focus on having babies. Give birth to obedient grandchildren, and I’ll help you take care of them so you won’t have to worry about anything,” Harold suggested. 

At the mention of children, Chloe immediately tensed up and changed the subject. If they continued this topic, she feared she would sink into the wonderful life planned by Harold and be unable to extricate herself when the contract between her and Joseph 

ended. 

Fortunately, it did not take long to arrive at Patterson. Chloe hastily got out of the car and ran into the building.
