Chapter 486 Even Without the Whitmans, Joseph Is Still Joseph

Joseph paused, a nagging feeling making him turn around. He gestured for Chloe to join him, saying, “Come.”

Chloe’s eyes shimmered like starlight as she eagerly took a few quick steps, reaching out for Joseph’s hand. With

him stopping and waiting for her, Xavia found herself walking in alone. Unfamiliar with the place, she was unsure

which door led to the garden.

She tried to hide her embarrassment, casually asking, “Where’s Oreo? Can you show me the way, Joe?”

Before anyone could respond, Lucas stepped forward and offered, “I’ll take you there.”

Xavia mustered a smile and maintained her friendly demeanor. “All right. Sorry for troubling you.”

Lucas noticed the strange look in her eyes. He understood Xavia’s friendliness was only for show, mostly because

Joseph was there. It would likely fade when the latter was not around.

Just as Xavia left, Patrick returned with news.

“I’ve found the worker, and he’s in the next room right now,” he reported, pausing briefly before adding, “I noticed

Madam Octavia’s car arriving too.”

Annoyed, Joseph responded, “Wait until she’s gone before bringing the worker in.”

“Dad, you have to stand up for me!” Octavia’s voice resonated through the room even before she entered. She

stretched her words out, feigning a crying tone. Anyone who did not know any better would have thought

something terrible had happened.

Harold rubbed his ear, mirroring his grandson’s annoyance. “I’m still alive. No need to mourn yet.”

As Octavia rushed into the room and spotted Joseph, her body tensed and her cries grew even louder. “The resort

just opened for business and I went to show my support, but they didn’t reserve the suite for me and even kicked

me out. Is this how we treat family?”

She added, “Dad, don’t take your frustrations out on me because of Jon. And stop picking on him. Didn’t we already

buy back the house? Joe didn’t lose anything. Show some mercy!”

Joseph’s smile turned frosty, his words sharp and to the point. “You say you were there to how your support, but

firstly, you didn’t pay a dime. Secondly, you caused trouble at the Iront desk, creating a negative impact on the

resort. And lastly, I have only one wife, and that’s Chloe. Why did you bring Xavia along?”

iarold finally understood. “So, you went there to take advantage of the situation.”

Octavia did not like his words. “Dad, how could you say that? Do I need to spend money to enjoy what’s ours?”

“The resort is a joint asset between Fairlight and Exotic Star, not a Whitman property.” Joseph’s expression turned

cold and stern as he clarified the situation. “The Whitmans stand separate from Fairlight as independent entities.

Even without the Whitmans, I can still manage.”

The Whitmans held no sway over him. In recent years, Fairlight had been experiencing tremendous growth and

success. If there was any hindrance, it was a result of the Whitman Group’s debts. Without the Whitman Group,

Joseph could have achieved even greater heights.

Harold nodded in agreement, his expression earnest. “The brat is right. He has never relied on the Whitmans, but in

the future, the Whitmans will have to depend on him. Also, he used his own money to repurchase that house. To put

it bluntly, if the three of you could cause fewer problems, everything will be fine.”

Chloe marveled at Harold’s sharpness.

Octavia’s face lost all color as shame and embarrassment took over. She left quietly, burdened by her own

disgrace.

‘May the heavens bless Jon and guide him to become the future beacon of light,’ she thought, ” One day, my son

will rise to become the star of the Whitmans, and Joe will have no choice but to look up at him!’
