Chapter 297

The road on the opposite side of KS Group.

Jerome leaned against the car door and stood in the golden sunset with his hands in his trouser pocket. He looked at KS Group’s door with a gloomy expression.

He had been waiting for this period of time.

He was waiting for Chloe to contact him. Even if they did not meet, it was good to send a message.

But in the end, his heart was filled with hope, but it also confirmed one thing.

The woman he loved deeply, in her heart, there was no place for him at all.

But he knew with certainty that Chloe still had a place for Joseph in her heart, but with the shadow of divorce between them, she was not willing to admit that she still had feelings for Joseph.

Thinking of this, Jerome pushed the gold-rimmed glasses with a

malicious look, his whole body seemed to be frozen with cold ice, even the bright light could not penetrate.

“Jerome.”

Hearing the sweet call, Jerome swept away the haze and his smile became as gentle as the wind.

“Chloe, you are finally here.”

Chloe walked briskly in front of him with his hands behind his back. He tilted his head and looked at him. “Huh? Finally? Have you waited for a long time? Didn’t you just arrive?”

He was like a cheerful and beautiful girl, exactly the same as the girl who saved him in the dark fifteen years ago.

As long as he saw her, he would not be able to pull his burning gaze out of her beautiful face, even if he was not a man who coveted beauty.

“I have waited for a long time. Since the last time we parted at Third Madam’s birthday banquet, I have been looking forward to meeting you.” Jerome could not hide the bitterness in his smile. Combined with his slightly pale face, there was a strange sense of fragility.

Chloe was stunned for a moment.

Only then did she remember that she had left in a hurry that time and had not properly greeted him and Mrs. Xavier.

It was indeed rude.

“I’m sorry. You should know what happened that day. It was a mess. I was worried about my family, so…”

“Chloe, you really should apologize to me.” Jerome’s expression suddenly became serious.

“Huh?” Chloe was stunned.

“Why didn’t you ask me for help when such a big thing happened?”

“Chloe, do you not trust me? Do you think I can’t help you?” Jerome asked, taking a step closer to her.

“Jerome, that’s not what I meant…”

“I just hate it. I was a step too late that day. My speed was not as fast as Joseph’s. Otherwise, I would have rushed up to protect you at the first possible moment.” Jerome’s breathing became heavy, and a heart wrenching emotion surged in his dark eyes.

“No, no, no… that iron rod swung down. It was quite miserable, and his head almost split in two.”

Chloe waved her hand repeatedly. Somehow, when she saw his eyes, her heart felt stuffy and panicked. “Joseph will be fine after one hit. Fourth Young Master, you don’t have to join in the fun.”

I can’t? Do you think only Joseph can protect you?” Jerome’s
