Chapter 556 Leaving Joseph

A flicker of sadness appeared in Xavia’s eyes. She remained silent, merely nodding before. turning away, consumed

by a sense of despair.

As she walked to the doorway, she bumped into the corner of a table, causing her to bend over in pain and clutch

her stomach. Seeing this, Joseph quickly approached her and asked, “Are you okay? Should I take you to the

hospital?”

“I’m fine.” Xavia turned back to glance at Chloe, saying empathically, “You and Ms. Chloe should talk. I’ll come to

see you another time.”

“Okay,” Joseph said while instructing Lucas to take Xavia home.

Lucas pressed his lips together, reluctant to comply but refrained from saying anything. He stole a glance at Chloe,

whose eyes were red and lips were tightly pursed. Chloe did not want to appear a failure in front of Xavia, so she

maintained a straight posture, struggling to contain her emotions. As he watched this unfold, Lucas felt a pang of

discomfort.

“Thank you, Joe. I’m sorry for all the trouble. I’ll be more careful from now on. I’ll watch my step and take good

care of our child. I won’t be so reckless anymore,” Xavia said, caressing her stomach like a gentle mother.

Upon hearing the word “child,” Joseph’s cold gaze softened slightly. The feeling of becoming a father for the first

time was indescribably marvelous. If only this child were his and Chloe’s, it would be perfect.

Chloe witnessed this scene unfold before her eyes, and her heart felt as though it was being forcefully torn apart.

She clenched her fists tightly, trying to prevent her tears from falling. At that point, she felt something inside her die

Having accomplished her objective, Xavia did not stay any longer and gracefully departed with Lucas. Back in the

office, Joseph and Chloe were once again alone.

He gazed at her and said, “Let’s talk about whatever grievances you have. I’m here to listen.”

“There’s nothing to say. I want to go back to sleep,” Chloe replied calmly, her eyes devoid of any emotion.

In an instant, Joseph’s heart was filled with panic. He could not comprehend what he had done wrong or why a

sense of unease had taken hold of him.

Ignoring his reaction, Chloe rose to her feet and headed toward the door.

“I’ll send you home.” Joseph’s brows furrowed deeply as he kept pace with her.

Chloe gave no response, neither agreeing nor refusing. She appeared listless as if her vibrant and radiant self had

withered.

After escorting Chloe back to the house, Joseph wanted to stay with her.

“I’d prefer some time alone,” Chloe uttered, enveloped in the warmth of the blankets. She averted her face from

him, her voice eerily composed.

Joseph could not fathom her thoughts. Always aloof and proud, he was now at a loss for words. He wondered if he

should grovel and plead. Throughout the journey, he had been actively seeking topics of conversation. Was that not

enough?

He did not believe he had done anything wrong. The decision to keep the child had been made with her consent,

and he had not acted without informing her first, so why was she mad?

Despite his love for her, Joseph’s pride prevented him from groveling. When his temper flared, he forgot about the

unsettling situation from this morning and promptly returned to Fairlight.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Chloe could no longer contain herself. Tears streamed down her face,

soaking the pillow. It was not the heart-wrenching, soul-tearing sobbing she had imagined, but a silent and

unassuming weeping.

After two hours of crying, she had shed enough tears, and her mind began to clear. Following her innermost

feelings, Chloe made a decision-she was going to leave Joseph. The Johnson Group could be managed remotely,

and besides, she had no close relatives or friends. Just informing Emily would be enough.

Chloe took a deep breath, lifted the covers, and got out of bed. In less than twenty minutes, her possessions were

neatly packed into her luggage. She flagged down a cab, left the courtyard, and found temporary accommodation

in a guesthouse.

She then sent Joseph a breakup text.
