Chapter 114

Chapter 114 Chloe wished fervently that she could transform into Freya’s pet boss and tear Joseph, the miserly man, to pieces!

After three years of marriage, during which they had never even held hands, they were now divorced and hugging each other. It was a situation so unlikely that even crocodiles wouldn’t have been willing to bite the cheap bone of his.

Joseph’s heart cracked, as if a long, narrow fissure had been cleaved through it.

“Mr. Sawle!”

Max jumped out of the car and hurriedly ran over as a Porsche stopped in front of them.

“Mr. Sawle, are you out of your mind?! You ought to go to the hospital right away after such a serious car crash! You’re not taking this seriously!”

“I won’t kick the bucket.

Joseph opened his eyes wide, yet he still felt he couldn’t make out Chloe clearly. “And... you’re nuts!”

Chloe was so shocked that she was utterly petrified!

Only now did she comprehend why he had arrived so tardily today, why his entire demeanor was off, why he couldn’t even grasp a pen..

Turned out he was involved in a car accident!

“Joseph, you should go to the hospital to check if you were in a car accident! Don’t you think that just because you’re good-

looking, the King of Hell won’t accept you? What if you have internal injuries? If you don’t get treatment soon, your whole body could be paralyzed – do you know that? Chloe’s almond-shaped eyes widened as her heart skipped a beat.

“Haven’t you been anticipating this day for a while? If I go to the hospital, would you be willing to postpone getting the divorce papers?” Joseph asked quietly.

“No, of course not,” Chloe replied with a chilly smile.

“Chloe!”

Upon hearing the affectionate call, Chloe spun around.

She observed two black, luxurious cars parked next to each other.

Oscar and Riley stood in front of the car, both dressed in handsome and attractive suits. Second Brother held a bouquet of stunning red roses, beaming a bright smile at her.

“Eldest Brother! Second Brother!” Chloe ran excitedly towards her family, her eyes beaming with delight Joseph’s heart was engulfed in a sea of bitterness, both within and without.

He foolishly waited outside the Thorp family’s door at that time, while they were happily enjoying the natural peace and harmony.

He, however, was outside drinking in the northwest wind, living a life devoid of meaning.

He couldn’t decide whether to hate himself for being so naive, or to hate Chloe for having deceived him so thoroughly.

“Why are you here?”

“Big brother, why aren’t you at home resting? Why are you here?” Chloe asked, gripping Oscar’s left hand that was still swathed in gauze.

I’m not that feeble. I’m doing alright.”.

“Today is a momentous day for you, and for us too. Although we weren’t able to be there when you got married, we are here to support you no matter what.”

“Big brother...” Chloe’s nose twitched and her heart fluttered.

“Well done, Chloe! You’ve earned it! Get rid of Joseph and become a queen!” Riley beamed and presented the red rose in his hand.

Thanks Second Brother, muach, Chloe said, taking the gift and inhaling its scent.

Riley’s voice was too loud, and the word “Joseph” wes shouted out.

Then, a man’s face was as dark as if it had been bombarded, and he could not bear to look at it.

he exclaimed.”Chloel” he exclaimed excitedly.

Second Madame Helena, Third Madam Sia, Fourth Madam, and Freya all exited the luxury car and surrounded Chloe with smiles.

“Why are you all here?” Chloe was so astonished that tears were threatening to spill.

Chapter 114 “Nonsense,” Freya said, embracing her. “We have a heart, of course. How could we not comel”

“Chloe, your father also wanted to come, but if he did, it’s likely it would cause quite a stir, so...” Helena explained thoughtfully.

“I get it,” Chloe said with an understanding smile.

Joseph’s heart was filled with a myriad of mysteries and intensely tormented upon seeing his ex-wife surrounded and cherished by her family.

For the past three years, he had given her only a fraction of his love. Yet, she persisted in staying by his side, enduring his harshness and cruelty- why?

He was so desperate for an answer that he was on the brink of going crazy.

“Wow! It’s Sia! It’s the movie star Sia who has been absent for many years!”

Max gazed at Sia, who was still as captivating and attractive as eyer. He was so thrilled that he couldn’t contain his enthusiasm.

“I’m dying to get her autograph! My mom is a huge fan of hers!”

“Return to the company!” Joseph gave him a frosty stare.

In the next second, however, his grip loosened and he fainted.

“Mr. Sawle!”

Joseph awoke to find himself lying on a hospital bed.

“Chloe...”

He had i just regained consciousness and was calling out her name.

“Your right wrist has a torn tendon, accompanied by a certain level of concussion and some blood clots. But it’s nothing worry about.”

Chloe stood by the window, her silhouette beautiful and cold in the light.

While Joseph was in a coma, Max recounted to her how he had been in a car accident.

When Max went to the study in the morning, the smoke in the room was so thick that it choked him and made him stagger.

revealing that he hadn’t slept the night before.

“It’s likely that Mr. Sawle didn’t get much sleep last night and was confused. It’s also possible that his head ailment had an impact on his driving”

Chloe was well aware of how excruciating Joseph’s headaches were, so over the years, he had rarely driven himself due to the illness.

Joseph, who are you trying to impress by not sleeping, smoking cigarettes, and not going to the hospital even if you’re injured?

Grace might be willing to watch, but I still don’t like it.

“Take care of yourself, I’ll leave.” Chloe said with disdain.

As she spoke, Chloe strode forward with her long, fair legs and headed towards the door.

“Chloe! Stop!”

Joseph, anxious for a moment upon seeing her walking non-stop, got up from the bed and pursued her.

As Chloe’s hand grasped the door handle, the man stepped forward, firmly holding the door in place with his strong arms. His tall frame seemed to form a barrier, trapping her in the darkness.

Joseph! You’re out of your mind! What are you trying to pull?” Chloe was taken aback and livid.

“Provide me with a response and I’ll release you.”

“Why did you marry me all those years ago?” Joseph stared at her, his voice slightly raspy.

“Why do you have so questions?”

Chloe raised her small hind and was about to give him a kick.

Joseph blocked her dishonest leg with his knees in the next second, leaving her unable to move and biting her lips in anxiety.

She was skilled, yet against Joseph, the school’s top student, she was no match.

‘Chloe, all I’m asking for is the truth. Is that really so hard?”

“My mind was boggled by the door, alright?! Back off me! I’m summoning assistance!”

2/3 10:32 Chapter 114 Joseph remained motionless, clearly displeased with her response.

The door was pushed open from the outside at this time.

Chloe was abruptly shoved open and tumbled into Joseph’s embrace.

His eyes were sharp as he held her close, his arms securely wrapped around her slender waist, and his palm firmly pressed against her flat abdomen.

He had imagined the waistline to be more beautiful than it actually was.

His Adam’s apple bobbed, and dark flames erupted.

Chloe’s breathing became erratic, and a tingling sensation of electricity coursed down her waist and throughout her body.

“Mr. Sawle! Young lady...

Max was dumbfounded, his unimaginative brain could not comprehend what they were doing.

Chloe seized the chance to free Joseph from his bonds, her sharp high-heeled shoes poised to trample him. Surprisingly, his muscle memory was remarkable and he dodged with lightning speed.

She failed, yet she seized the opportunity to flee and vanished from the ward.

“Mr. Sawle. Young Madam has run away. Are you going to pursue her? Max nervously gulped.

Joseph’s eyes had a ravenous look, as if he wanted to devour someone.

Did he... arrive at the wrong time?

“Pursue?”

Joseph clenched his fingers, narrowed his starry eyes, and angrily declared. ‘Go back and sign the contract yourself-the bonus will be taken away!”
