Chapter 219

“Jordan, take this bottle of Lafite to be opened.” Chloe raised her eyebrows slightly and took the phone from Jordan’s hand.

Jordan felt a pang of disappointment deep inside, knowing that Miss was telling him to back off.

“I know what you’re thinking, Jordan. Although I and Joseph had a failed marriage and I genuinely dişlike him, it’s not like we won’t have any contact in the future.”

Chloe’s beautiful eyes curved with a sense of understanding as she patted his shoulder. “In the future, I need to establish myself in Medo, and as we expand KS, I’ll undoubtedly have to deal with him. When the enemy comes, we’ll stand our ground, when the water flows, we’ll cover the earth.”

“But, Miss…”

“What are you afraid of? Afraid he’ll eat me? If he dares to touch a single strand of my hair, your big brother doesn’t need to get involved, your fourth brother can make him disappear from Medo without a trace.” She snorted, not taking it seriously.

No, it’s not like that.

I deeply admire you, and I’m not afraid to sacrifice my life for you.

I’m just afraid that your old feelings for Joseph will be rekindled. I can’t bear to watch you jump into the fire pit again.

Jordan sighed with frustration and picked up the red wine.

Chloe saw her phone in her palm still vibrating persistently, not behaving as it should, which perfectly matched Joseph’s stubborn and unyielding character.

“Mr. Sawle, what can I do for you?” She answered with her usual cold indifference.

“Thank you for the cake; it was delicious.”

Chloe’s breathing became lighter, and her long eyelashes drooped slightly.

In the dead of night, all was silent.

Joseph’s voice was magnetic, low and mellow, with a hint of depth that could easily enchant the heart.

She used to enjoy calling him, and she loved hearing his voice. Even if he was distant, she would still get excited under the

covers.

But now, her heart remained silent.

Her self-control was always strong. She could quit any addiction, even her emotional addiction.
