A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband

Chapter 294

Chapter 294

After Joseph fell in love with Chloe, he understood one thing.

Chloe was like a mountain bamboo, always with a black face and a hard shell, but in fact, her heart was still soft, sincere, and kind.

There was nothing else that could attract her, so he could only shamelessly pester her and drag her, for more than a moment.

In the past, it was she who was by his side, in order to compromise with him alone, racing against time.

Now, it was his turn to suffer.

In the end, Chloe was unable to walk out of this room, so he had no choice but to stay.

“Don’t misunderstand. I didn’t stay because you wanted me to stay, but because I promised grandfather and Annie.”

“I will rest next door tonight. If you need anything, call me and I will come over.” Chloe calmed down and sat up from the bed.

“Chloe, sleep here tonight.” Joseph’s eyes were deep.

“The sofa is uncomfortable. I can’t sleep.” Chloe tried hard to pull her hand out, but she couldn’t.

“Let’s sleep on the bed.” The man’s voice was low, as if he was coaxing her.

“Joseph, can’t you speak without saying something offensive?” Chloe hated that she did not have a tape measure in her pocket, otherwise she really wanted to measure the thickness of this man’s face!

“Don’t misunderstand, Chloe. If you don’t want to, I won’t force you. Although I really want to…”

As they spoke, Joseph couldn’t help but feel that Gao An’s tall and straight body was emitting a fiery heat, leaning to wards her.

Think? Fucking you thought!

“It stinks! Don’t come near me!”

“I don’t want to sleep in the same room as you. I’m afraid that I will faint from the stench in the middle of the night.” Chloe dodged back wards, her other hand pinching the tip of his nose in disgust.

“Is it smelly? It’s okay.”

“When I was a soldier, the conditions in the camp were bad. I couldn’t take a bath once a week. At that time, it was much worse than this.”

“Later, when I returned to Sawle Group, I could take a bath everyday. At first, I was still a little unaccustomed.”

Chloe’s eyes trembled slightly.

In his past, the hardship he had endured, in this world, other than himself, the one who understood the most was her, Chloe.

She did not dislike him, but the knot in her heart was difficult to untie. Even if he was more sincere to her now, she could not persuade herself to take a step closer to him.

She once loved him, and rushed to him without hesitation, like a moth flying into a flame. When all the love and enthusiasm was burned by him personally, she turned into ashes and thought that it was really difficult, very difficult.

“Chloe, why don’t I wipe my body? Wait for me.”

Joseph was afraid that the little girl would dislike him and refuse to be in the same room as him, so he pretended to get out of bed to do some -personal hygiene.

“You can’t touch the water now. Don’t mess around, just stink.”

Chloe pried open Joseph’s fingers one by one, and his long eyelashes trembled. “I’ll go wash up.”

Though concealing his vulnerabilities, Joseph was secretly struggling. His sense of pride and a somewhat chauvinistic outlook discouraged him from revealing any signs of weakness, particularly in the presence of his loved one. Consumed by the traditional belief that men should serve as protectors, he felt an overwhelming responsibility to uphold an invincible front and safeguard his partner.

However, his head was hit by a stick. In the past, he had almost been hit by a machine gun. How did he become so weak that he couldn’t take care of himself?

It was too shameful in front of Chloe.

At this moment, he leaned against the headboard and listened to the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.

For a long, long time, he didn’t have the heart to be this calm and peaceful. He had never experienced such simple happiness.

Suddenly, Joseph’s eyes turned sour, and he clenched the sheets with his
