Chapter 422 All He Cares About Is Chloe
The doctor shook his head. “We have to wait until at least the sixteenth week, which is around four months. The
patient isn’t like an ordinary person. Being pregnant is a huge burden on her. We can only do the amniocentesis at
month four at the fastest. If the situation isn’t
optimistic, we have to wait until month five or six.”
Joseph frowned deeply and left the doctor’s office. When he was back at the ward, he found Xavia had woken up at
some point. Her eyes were red and swollen, casting an image of feebleness.
“Go home to Ms. Chloe. I’m fine. I’m sorry for losing control tonight.”
“Why did you deliberately cause such a scene?”
Joseph’s eyes were extremely dark and gloomy.
Trembling, Xavia boldly met his gaze and said agitatedly, “Chloe got the police to investigate for no reason. Joe, I’m
a public figure. Reputation is of utmost importance to me. I wanted to protect myself and stop those groundless
rumors from tarnishing my innocence. And of course, I wanted to protect my baby!”

“But she’s always targeting me. I wish that accident from that night didn’t happen either, but I got pregnant. I don’t
have a choice.”
“You’re so suspicious.”
Xavia’s heart skipped a beat as she stared at him in disappointment. “The police already released me. I’m innocent.
I knew that you’d publicly side with Chloe, so I used that extreme method to protect myself. The public has sharp
eyes. If I did something wrong, would I be bold enough to go through so much effort to seek attention?
“I don’t blame you but myself for failing to keep you by my side.
“Just go.”
Joseph’s eyes turned dull as he stated calmly and aloofly, “I’ll repeat myself. After the amniocentesis, I’ll be
responsible for the child if it’s mine. Behave yourself from now on and don’t make another scene. I don’t have
much patience, and I also don’t want to fall out with you for real.”
He had no interest in whether her suicide attempt tonight was a cry for attention or trying to use public opinion to
suppress Chloe. At most, he only needed to wait for another two months. to clear the air. On the surface, Xavia
appeared gentle and charming, but he knew that she was not someone who could be easily bullied.
His patience was limited too.
Xavia’s eyes went wide with anger as if she felt embarrassed and furious now that her schemes were exposed. She
thought that she could move him after saying all this and that his heart would soften for her.
“Yes, I admit I want to do everything I can to keep you. I don’t know what I did wrong to make you hate me so
much. When we were dating, I was always by your side while you tried to establish your business. Even when I got
sick, I chose to leave for fear that I might burden you for the rest of your life. Why do you have to be so cold toward
me?”
Joseph recalled his past five years ago, and his eyes turned slightly gloomy. It was hard to forget one’s companion,
but it did not mean that he would miss them. He knew very well that Chloe was the one he cared about now.
“Don’t bring the past again. Rest well.” He got up and left.
Watching his back, Xavia heaved a heavy sigh. Today’s battle was neither a victory nor a loss. Although Joseph was
suspicious, everyone in the world now knew that she was pregnant with
his child.

“Did you send her home?” Of course, he was referring to Chloe.
“Ms. Chloe didn’t ask me to pick her up and went home with her best friend. I did ask her about it, and she’s safely
at home.”
Rubbing the place between his brows, Joseph fished his phone out to call Chloe.
Oceanic Residence.
Chloe and Noah were standing in the neighborhood and conversing. The latter was wearing a cuffed gray shirt,
exposing a small part of his wrists. His skin was fair and tender that one could see his green veins. When he smiled,
his canines poked out harmlessly. At that moment, he presented a slim and upright physique.
“Hey… Did you just move in here?”
“Yeah. You stay here too?” Chloe appeared suspicious and unsure. After all, he should at least stay in a villa given
his identity.
“Yes, my university is nearby, and this apartment is close.” Noah sounded joyful. His brown eyes were full of
gentleness. “Looks like our fate is written in the stars. We’ll be neighbors from now on.”
Chloe opened her mouth to say something but her phone rang before she could do so. But when she tried to
answer her phone, it turned off because the battery died.
Noah caught a glimpse of the name on the screen and offered her his phone. “Here, use mine to call him back.”
