Chapter 194

Chloe’s beautiful eyes suddenly narrowed as she forcefully pushed Joseph’s hard chest, bouncing away from him. She quickly retreated, her back slamming against the refrigerator door.

In her panic, her sharp eyes picked up a trace of red as she panted for breath, her smooth jade-like forehead beaded with

sweat.

Although she had a transparent mask on, she could still feel the warmth emanating from the man’s thin lips. The heat that made her blush still lingered on her lips.

Damn it! How could it be so…

Chloe, gasping for breath with a red face, angrily flung off her mask and threw it to the ground.

It was futile and filthy!

Joseph slowly straightened his tall, strong frame, leaning his backside against the edge of the operating table, His handsome, picturesque face was slightly weary, like a wild beast that had just feasted. He pursed his thin, red lips.

Despite his composed demeanor, his heart trembled uncontrollably in that moment.

“Doesn’t it hurt your back?”

Joseph remained in a trance, still seemingly lost in the kiss that had taken him by surprise. Despite this, he maintained his noble demeanor, his tone still cold.

“That’s note of your concern!”

Upon witnessing the dog man devour the small lion, Chloe was so enraged that she clenched her jaw. “Joseph, who gave you permission to eat what I prepared?! I was exhausted all afternoon and didn’t come to give you a gift!”

“It’s been ages since I’ve had the pastries you made. I’m really looking forward to tasting your cooking again. I recall you used to make pastries for me to enjoy all the time.”

Joseph, not being a greedy person, would typically not eat or drink when he was busy.

When he saw Chloe making pastries with her heart, his heart itched with some reluctance and restlessness, so he picked one up and ate it.

He didn’t give it much thought, fearing he’d miss the opportunity and never get another.

“Ah, it was before, but now it’s different!”

Chloe’s expression remained glum. Her voice was icy and unyielding. “You used to be my husband. I washed my hands and cooked soup for you. That’s what a wife does.”

“But now you’re a disgrace. What authority do you have to consume my snacks? I’d rather discard them to feed dogs than give them to you. You’re not deserving!”
