Chapter 403 Ridiculous Sweetness
Chloe widened her gaze. “What a coincidence!”
“Hahaha! This circle of ours isn’t that big. Once you become a part of it, everyone will get to know each other
eventually.”
Chloe refuted, “I just became a part of it temporarily.”
She would never have met the Sullivans or become an Exotic Star ambassador if it were not for the relationship she
had with the Whitmans.
“You’re funny. My father recalls that you’re good at making proposals, but I don’t know if you’ll accept or not. As for
the fee…” Nathan extended his fingers to gesture a number. 1
“Yes, I’ll accept it!”
Chloe did not think that a president would fail to hire a person to make proposals. They were most probably testing
her abilities. If she fulfilled their expectation, they might help her after. It was fine if they did not think highly of her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter all, she would gain the fee she deserved.
Nathan was amused by her determined look. “Are you short of money?”
“No, but I need chances.”
The Johnson Group was worse off than some but better off than many. It was easy for this sort of company to
crumble, and it was also hard for them to climb higher.
After she said that, Joseph opened the door and came in. Nathan then told him what they talked about just now.
However, Joseph seemed uninterested. He then changed the topic.
“Can I join your father’s new project in Docwood?”
Nathan was stupefied. “How do you know…” His father had wanted to invite Chloe to join that new project. Joseph
really had incredible foresight.
“Can I join?”
“Sure. I’ll tell him when I get home.”
Joseph gave a curt reply before a waiter knocked on the door and came in. A few spicy dishes were served.
Nathan became confused. “Did you order these?”
‘When did he start liking food with strong flavors?
-“Mmhmm,” Joseph answered absent-mindedly before he looked toward Chloe. When he saw her
stare at a bowl of chili and swallow, he secretly smiled.
Chloe seemed to have noticed something so she looked up at him. When their eyes met, she caught a doting look
that flashed across his handsome face.
Her heart skipped a beat. ‘Did he order these dishes for me…”
When this thought popped into her mind, she could not get rid of it. She instinctively wanted to deny it but this was
the only explanation. Nathan and Joseph did not eat spicy food.
An unspeakable feeling engulfed her. She was filled with bitterness and a tinge of ridiculous
sweetness. She was pregnant, so she did not dare to eat too much spicy food. She just ate enough to satisfy her
appetite.
Nathan had something on his mind, so he did not notice this. He looked toward Joseph when
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChloe had almost finished eating and asked heavily, “Who’s the one taking care of the real estate in your family?”
“Most of them are under my name, but Grandpa has a few.”
“How about that one your late father stayed at?”
Joseph’s eyes sank. “What’s wrong?”
Nathan touched his nose. “I saw someone put the house on sale online, and it was sold…”
Joseph’s brows knitted together tightly. The backs of his hands were full of bulging veins. The atmosphere dropped
to a freezing point.
He called Jonathan in front of them “Come to Fairlight within twenty minutes. Otherwise, your father will cease to be
a board member too.”
Chloe’s heart sank. She knew that a family dispute was about to break out. However, she was not in a position to
meddle.
She was about to grab her bag but Nathan beat her to it.
“Hey…”
Nathan lowered his voice. “Joe’s father passed away in that house. I’m worried that he’ll lose control and deal with
Jonathan cruelly.”
Joseph prohibited others from entering that house but Jonathan had secretly sold it.
