Chapter 582 Did Someone Order You to Do This?
Chloe chuckled sarcastically. ‘Afraid of offending the Sullivans? Trying to use reverse psychology, huh?’ She crossed
her arms and looked at Joseph threateningly.
Joseph met her gaze and groaned inwardly. To be honest, he really wanted to take this opportunity to teach Noah a
lesson, and it had little to do with Xavia. “I’ll call Noah over,” he said.
Xavia’s face lit up, tears shimmering in her eyes. “Thank you, Joe. You’re so kind to me.”
Chloe scoffed. Her anger flared as she retorted, “If you find trouble with Noah today, don’t expect to step foot in
my room tonight.”
Joseph took Chloe’s hand and pulled her aside. He looked at her helplessly and said, “I’m not helping Xavia. I just

Since Xavia dared to confront Noah, it meant she was speaking the truth. It would be perfect if he could expose his
true nature in front of Chloe right now.
“Even if it was Noah, so what? He was just helping me to get revenge. And what about you? Are you helping Xavia
vent her frustrations?” Chloe challenged Joseph, her words logical and well-founded.
Joseph fell silent. After a while, he said in a serious manner, “Noah isn’t as innocent as he appears on the surface. If
he can be so ruthless toward Xavia, what guarantee do you have that he won’t treat you the same if you disagree
with him? I know a person’s true character is hidden beneath their facade. I’m just worried about you. Besides, I’m
just calling him over. I won’t interfere or help Xavia.”
After all, he had to consider Desmond.
Chloe blinked, her skepticism lingering. “Are you absolutely sure you won’t take any action?”
Joseph gently caressed her silky hair and said, “I swear on my life that I won’t do anything. All I’m worried about is
you.”
“Oh, stop it. Don’t think you can dismiss me with just a few sweet words,” she playfully scolded, giving him a
mischievous look.
“I’ll have Lucas call Noah now.”
“Remember your promise. You said you wouldn’t do anything to Noah,” Chloe warned, playfully poking his solid
chest. “If you help Xavia in any way, don’t expect me to stand by your side.”
“Fine, but can you stop openly favoring him like this?” Joseph expressed his discontent, his displeasure evident on
his face.
Ignoring him, Chloe turned to Xavia and said, “If you’ve wrongly accused Noah, you should apologize to him.”
“Sure,” Xavia replied confidently.

One hour later, Lucas pushed open the door and led a young boy into the office. He wore black framed glasses,
khaki pants, and a white T-shirt. Carrying a backpack, he looked like he had just finished classes.
Noah scanned the room, then looked at Joseph. “You called me here for something?”
Sitting in his chair, Joseph instructed Xavia, “Tell me the story again, and give me all the details.”
Xavia clenched her fists and approached Noah. She removed her mask, and her eyes were filled with intense
hatred. “You dragged me to that alley and hit me yesterday. Look at my face! The doctor said there might be scars.
We have no grievances between us, so why did you do this to me?”
As she spoke, her eyes turned red and tears began to stream down her face.
Megan chimed in, “Although Xavia’s livelihood depends on her hands, she has to present her face to her audience.
You look young, but you’re as evil as they come. Did someone order you to do this?”
