Chapter 66 She Had Spent Her Night With Another Man
“It’s been so long that I can’t remember.” Miles let out a few fake smiles, “Let me check my files at the office tomorrow and contact you then.”
Chloe was confused, “Didn’t you contact my father last month?
So how could he forget so quickly?
Upon hearing her question, Miles’s voice turned harsh as he said, “I’m busy with work.”
“Then let’s exchange numbers so that I can contact you directly if necessary. It’s better
to lock in a date for the asset handover.”
Miles did not want to exchange his number with Chloe, but she insisted.
On the way home, Chloe kept thinking about Miles. She felt that his reaction was very strange-like he did not want to deal with her.
In the courtyard of her home, Toto rushed up to Chloe the moment she returned, wagging its tail wildly in greeting.
“Are you hungry, Toto? Let me get you some food.”
“Woof, woof, woof!
Chloe walked to Toto’s doghouse and found that the food bowl was full.
Behind her, Joseph stood with his arms crossed, and his tone was sarcastic as he said, ” Toto would’ve starved to death by the time you got him to feed it.”
“I went to dinner with some friends today, so I’m home a little later than usual,” Chloe replied helplessly.
“Dinner with friends?” He raised his eyebrows and spoke slowly, “Guy friends, right?”
Nathan texted him just now and told him that he saw Chloe at a seafood restaurant with a man in his thirties. The man even offered to send her home.
Nathan also sent a video in which Icarus’s voice could be vaguely heard. It was the man who was on a video call with Chloe a few nights ago.
It turned out that Chloe had not come back to cook for him because she had spent her night with another man.
“It was a guy, but there were a few of us,” Chloe replied. However, she paused halfway and her eyes widened coquettishly. “How did you know?”
“I know a lot of things.”
“Have you been following me?”
Despite her joking tone, Joseph felt a sudden wave of irritation and her words did not register with him clearly. “You seem to have a high opinion of yourself. I’m not attracted to women who switch partners frequently.”
She kissed him in the morning, and at night, she went out to dinner with another man and came back so late. If she was not someone who changed partners frequently, then who was?
“Hey! Don’t say such things to me!”
“If you have the guts to do it, be ready to face various types of criticism. If you don’t wish to be criticized by others, refrain from doing it altogether.”
“You’re unreasonable!” Chloe said angrily. She then took Toto out for a walk, not wanting to be with someone who was kicking up a fuss for no reason.
There were all sorts of villas in the residence. Toto sunbathed in the backyard every day and got a walk once a day. It was so excited that it pulled Chloe and ran around.
Chloe could not keep up with Toto and decided to find a place that was deserted to let Toto go so that it could play by itself.
While Toto was having fun, she checked her phone and saw a text message from Ava. The message contained her and Jake’s engagement date and a reminder for Chloe to come and witness their beautiful love.
Chloe felt angry and disgusted. She had seen what kind of person Jake truly was, but she could not deny the past between them.
She did not reply to Ava since it was no use retaliating now. She needed to conserve her energy and prepare for that big present!
Upon returning home with Toto, Chloe ignored Joseph, who was sitting on the sofa, as her mind was preoccupied with plotting her revenge against Ava.
Joseph was in absolute disbelief that Chloe would ignore him. His expression turned terrifyingly dark as he watched her wash up and shut the bedroom door with a loud
snap.
Sitting in front of her table, Chloe inserted a USB drive into her laptop and searched for the birthday videos she and Jake had made together in previous years.
The videos were full of sweet nothings and handwritten letters. She printed out the letters one by one. Of course, the real bombshell was the recording of Jake’s outrageous comments when he was caught cheating. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
At that time, she was so enraged that she accidentally pressed the record function on her phone, capturing every word from beginning to end.
Chloe had originally wanted to delete the recording, but after Ava repeatedly caused trouble for her and almost caused her to be thrown in jail, she could not continue to remain silent. As Chloe focused on planning her revenge, someone knocked on the door. She sprang up and suddenly remembered that Joseph would likely attend Jake’s upcoming wedding since he was his uncle.
At that time, would he help her or his scumbag nephew?
Lost in thought, she stood up and opened the door. Joseph looked her straight in the eye and said, “I’m going on a business trip for a few days. Take good care of Toto while I’m away.”
She was stunned for a few seconds before asking, “Which days specifically?”
“From Thursday to next Monday.”
“You’re not going to the engagement party?” Chloe blurted out.
