Chapter 299 I’ll Break up With Ava

“I’m sorry, Ms. Chloe, but Mr. Alexander is currently in a meeting and can’t meet with you.”

Chloe pressed her lips together in a line and asked, “Then may I know if he’ll have time after the

meeting? I can wait.”

The secretary politely refused once again, “Mr. Alexander’s schedule is fully booked for the day.”

In other words, he was not going to see her today.

Chloe’s gaze filled with disappointment as she replied, “Thank you.”

She naturally did not believe the secretary’s words. However, continuing to pester would only annoy

people. As for the reason behind Mr. Alexander’s sudden change of heart, she needed to find out in

order to come up with the appropriate response.

Feeling dejected, Chloe walked out of the Graham Group office and caught sight of a flashy pink sports

car through the corner of her eye. She paused and looked over. Adam and a young, beautiful girl were

sitting in the car, chatting and laughing. The girl wore a Graham Group company badge around her

neck.

Apparently, she worked for the Grahams.

Chloe stood in the shade of a tree and watched them flirt and joke around. Suddenly, an idea sparked

in her mind. Since Alexander refused to see her, perhaps she could approach Adam and ask him to

inquire about the reason. After all, she could not think of any other solution.

She walked over and tapped Adam on the shoulder.

Adam turned his head and his eyes lit up with surprise. “Sis!”

Chloe cleared her throat and said, “I have something to ask you. I hope I’m not bothering you.

“Not at all. What’s the matter, sis?”

“It’s just some minor work matters. The plan I discussed with your father was suddenly rejected for

some unknown reason. I just want to know the reason why, and I don’t need you to intercede for me or

anything.” Chloe smiled at him. “Can you ask him about it for me?”

Adam immediately agreed, patting his chest and saying, “Leave it to me. I promise to find out the whole

reason for you.”

“Great! I’ll treat you to a meal another day!”

After discussing the matter at hand, she left Adam alone. Around three in the afternoon, she received a

message from him. He went straight to the point, sending a few comforting hug emojis first.

He wrote: [Sister, I asked Dad about it.]

She stared at the emojis on the screen, and a bad feeling rose up from her heart. [What did he say?]

[It’s not that he doesn’t value your plan, but Mr. Joseph said no to it.]

Though she had already guessed as much, the reality presented before her eyes made her unable to

resist cursing under her breath.

Docwood City, the Whitman mansion.

Patrick knocked on the door and respectfully said, “Sir, I have gathered the information.”

Putting down the newspaper, Harold asked, “What did you find?”

“Ms. Xavia did return to the country and had a few encounters with Mr. Joseph. Ms. Chloe is also

aware of her presence,” Patrick reported.

Harold’s face turned livid with anger. Just as he suspected, that cunning woman had returned, and he

believed she had played a part in the separation of his lovely granddaughter-in-law and Joseph.

Observing Harold’s expression, Patrick wondered aloud, “Although Ms. Chloe and Mr. Joseph have

broken up, their connection hasn’t been completely severed. Let’s observe for a few days to see if

there are any signs of reconciliation. As for Ms. Xavia, Ms. Joseph hasn’t had many interactions with

her.”

Harold huffed in annoyance, his mustache twitching. “Bring Xavia to me.”

‘How dare she come back to the country. Has she forgotten her promise? What is she up to this time?’

Patrick nodded, sighing inwardly. Harold might be getting older, but he wxo.com fast updateas still

observant. Even the most well-crafted plans could have loopholes. They had not anticipated Joseph

and Chloe’s marriage to be a sham. But though the marriage was fake, Joseph’s attitude toward Chloe

gradually changed. This divorce dispute probably involved genuine feelings.

Harold went downstairs to play with his pet birds, while Jonathan and Octavia stood by the pond,

whispering to each other. Harold glanced at them, his eyebrows furrowing involuntarily.

Jonathan was inferior to Joseph. Not only was he less capable, but he also had the tendency to gossip

like a woman, incessantly prattling on and offering unsolicited opinions.

Harold did not bother with the mother and son. He figured that he should not get angry with them as he

would only be staying in Docwood for a few days and then return to his own house.

“Listen to me, son. Ava was engaged to another man before, and this won’t do. Women who

marry into our family must be pure and untainted. You better break up with her quickly and find

someone else,” Octavia expressed her dissatisfaction.

Jonathan nodded emphatically. “Don’t worry, Mom. Even if you didn’t say anything, I would’ve broken

up with her.”

In the past few days, he had deliberately ignored Ava. When she could not bear it any longer and came

to argue with him, he would take the opportunity to initiate a breakup.

Octavia grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it into the pond, a disdainful etched on her face. “Also,

Chloe is Ava’s half-sister. I can tell she’s not a good person either.”

As dusk approached, the slanted rays of the setting sun hung in the sky. The petite woman under the

shade of the trees eagerly awaited, her gaze fixed on the exit of the underground garage.

Finally, Joseph’s car appeared.

Lucas spotted Chloe early on, and since the car had just left the garage, it was moving slowly. Before

they reached her, he slowly stepped on the brake and turned to look at the man sitting in the back seat.

“Mr. Joseph, Ms. Chloe is…”

Joseph, who had been resting his eyes, opened them and followed Lucas’ gaz
