Chapter 55

Along the way, Chloe and Joseph sat side by side. She always looked out of the window and did not look at him.

From head to toe, there was no lack of rejection towards him.

Joseph glanced at her with his inky eyes and wanted to ask her a few times, but it was difficult to speak.

Rory’s private villa was nestled in Medo’s Morning Moon Bay,

surrounded by mountains on all sides, providing a serene and tranquil atmosphere, as if it were tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

“Grandpa! I’m here to see you!”

As soon as Chloe stepped through the door, her face lit up. Her eyes sparkled like a crescent moon, and her voice was as clear and melodious as an oriole’s song.

In fact, her heart was faintly uneasy because of the bracelet, and she had to mentally prepare herself for a long time before she dared to enter. “Raya is here? Good child, I miss you so much!” Rory sat on the wheel chair and was pushed out by Secretary Webb.

When he saw his granddaughter–in–law, the old man who had been dispirited for several days instantly became hale and hearty, and his eyebrows almost flew up.

“Little girl, where have you been these past few days? Do you not want me anymore? Do you not love me anymore?”

Rory held Chloe’s small hand tightly and asked three times in a row.

The corner of Joseph’s lips twitched in displeasure.

He thought to himself that this old man was really old and dissolute. He was already eighty years old and yet he was still so improper when speaking. When he was eighteen, he must have been able to fly into the sky. It was likely that even Vincent would have to call him ancestor. “Grandfather, I’ve been busy with work recently. I even went on a trip, so I didn’t manage to contact you. It’s my fault. Hurry up and scold me.” Chloe squatted down and smiled sweetly.

“How can I bear to scold you, girl? I’m very happy to see you.”

Rory glared at Joseph, “If not for a certain cruel and unscrupulous brat,

Chloe smiled bitterly and did not answer for a moment.

Joseph’s face sank. He knew that he should not have come tonight, and that he would be the target of blame if he came.

“Raya, I just got a new painting here. I can’t bear to show it to others. I’ll keep it for you to see!” Rory excitedly held Chloe’s hand and walked to the study room.

“You actually want me to help you identify the treasure, right?” Chloe smiled, her dimples shallow.

“Hehe, you found out!”
