Chapter 292 Struck a Chord
“But I don’t think Joseph is that kind of person…”
Chloe fell silent for a moment and asked, “What makes you say so?”
“You see, Joseph is highly accomplished. He possesses wealth, looks, and a prominent social.
standing. With just a wave of his hand, women would flock to him. If he intended to engage in multiple
affairs, I believe he wouldn’t bother concealing it from you. Instead, he’d more likely inform you
beforehand. Something like, ‘My dear, here’s the amount I’ll provide you and your “good sister” every
month. You two should get along well and take good care of my needs, Emily explained.
“What you’re saying does make some sense…” Chloe reluctantly admitted.
“That’s why I said it might be a misunderstanding. After all, considering that Joseph publicly declared
your relationship at the team-building trip, it’s highly unlikely for him to sleep with Xavia after that. It
simply doesn’t add up,” Emily continued.
“Even if there’s a misunderstanding, it’s a fact that he had a relationship with Xavia. He admitted it
himself,” Chloe stated.
Emily pondered intensely, her mind racing in search of a solution. “Do you think it’s possible. that Xavia
orchestrated all of this?” she contemplated.
“That’s impossible. Joseph is smart, so he wouldn’t…” Chloe hesitated, unsure if she should completely
dismiss the possibility given Xavia’s manipulative nature.
“Listen to me. Find an opportunity for the two of you to sit down and have a proper conversation,” Emily
suggested.

“No, it’s useless. He won’t forgive me for lying, and this is a matter of principle. I can’t just let
it go.”
Both Chloe and Joseph held their share of responsibility in the situation they currently found
themselves in. Perhaps the wrong choices made in the beginning had inevitably led to this unhappy
ending.
After ending the call, Emily was consumed by a profound sense of self-blame. It had been no easy task
for her best friend to find a wealthy and attractive man, and no, she had ruined it all.
Even though Chloe had labeled Joseph as a scumbag, Emily refused to fully believe it. She sprang up
from the bed and made up her mind to go and talk to Joseph. Regardless of whether they could
reconcile, she had to clarify things for Chloe.
Admittedly, Chloe’s initial intention was to become Joseph’s wife as a means of exacting revenge
against Jake, thinking he was Jake’s uncle. But as time passed, she developed genuine feelings for
Joseph.
Deciding to take action, Emily drove to Fairlight and approached the receptionist on the ground floor.
“Hello, I have something to discuss with Joseph.”
The receptionist smiled and asked, “Do you have an appointment?”
“No, I don’t.”
“I’m sorry, but Mr. Joseph is very busy. If you don’t have an appointment, I can’t let you go up, “the
receptionist politely informed her.
“Please pass along a message for me. Let him know that I’ve come to resolve things for Chloe, “Emily
requested.

Hesitating for a moment upon hearing that Emily knew Chloe, the receptionist decided to make a
phone call and inform Lucas about the situation. Lucas relayed the message to Joseph who did not
even lift his head.
“I don’t want to see her,” he said.
If Emily was a friend of Chloe’s, then she was also someone of questionable character.
Lucas conveyed the message to the receptionist, who kindly declined Emily’s request once
more.
Clenching her fists, Emily pressed on, “What time does the office close?”
“We normally finish at six,” the receptionist replied.
‘All right, six o’clock it is. I’ll wait for him until he gets off work,’ Emily thought to herself.
However, to her surprise, Joseph appeared downstairs a little after five, cutting short her waiting time.
When Emily spotted him, she hurriedly approached him, determined to have at
conversation.
“Mr. Joseph, I have something to tell you!” Emily exclaimed, trying to catch his attention.
Joseph glanced at her indifferently, his tone chilly as he said, “I’m not interested. There’s no need for
you to speak.”
Emily hesitated for a moment but mustered up her courage and said, “No, I have to tell you. The
recording on my phone isn’t what you think it is.”

Joseph remained expressionless, his eyes filled with mockery.

updategathered her strength and looked at Joseph seriously. “Mr. Joseph, I admit that Chloe initially
mistook you for Icarus at the bar, which led to her pursuing you. But that was just the beginning of
everything. The real reason you two fell in love was because of the connection you share.”

‘Go on with your lies.’
“While it’s true that Chloe deceived you, her feelings for you are genuine. She frequently boasted to me
about your kindness, how you bought her clothes and bags, and even mentioned the favorable
treatment she received from your grandfather. She expressed a genuine desire to be a part of the
Whitmans if given the opportunity.”
Emily enlarged a chat conversation on her phone screen for Joseph to see. The messages showed
Chloe’s excessive praise for Joseph, dating back about two months when he gave

Her words struck a chord.
Joseph’s heart ached as his mind raced. Even her friend knew that his relationship with Xavia was a
result of a misunderstanding, yet Chloe had labeled him as a two-timing scoundrel.
Emily felt that she might have hit the mark when Joseph did not say anything. Her lips parted once
again, determined to press on. “Since it’s just a misunderstanding, the two of you should clear things
up. Don’t wait until it’s too late before having regrets
