Chapter 113

“It’s alright. Had it not been for five o’clock, we’d have had to wait ’til tomorrow,” Chloe said in a frosty voice, and she started. heading towards the door.

Joseph remained suspended in the same spot, his throat constricted.

Three years ago, he had agreed to marry that day, but an emergency meeting notice from the project manager of Puplen forced him to remain in the group for the meeting, leaving him no choice.

It was not an easy task for him to wrap up the meeting, especially with important guests in attendance. After dinner, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to remind her to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau the next day.

The memory was sharper and more painful.

Rushing to the Civil Affairs Bureau as quickly as possible, he found the door almost empty, with only Chloe standing there, her little head bowed, her weak and slender figure looking lonely and pitiful.

He hadn’t anticipated that she would wait an entire day.

He hadn’t anticipated that there would be such a tenacious girl in existence.

Joseph really wanted to apologize to her, but his grandfather’s pressure, his disdain for the arranged marriage, and Grace’s sudden departure all tugged at him, leaving him unable to utter the words in the end.

“Joseph, you’re here at last!”

When he closed his eyes, he still saw Chloe’s warm, sun-bright smile.

At that time, he was unaware of what could have caused this woman to be so utterly disappointed in him.

He now realized that he had abandoned her ruthlessly, leaving her heart feeling like dead ashes, and that feeling was gone.

Joseph’s heart blushed, and his expression was stiff as he followed Chloe through the door.

“Are they here to get a marriage license!! Wow, they really do make a perfect pair for a fairy tale!”

“But the two of them don’t appear to be too content?”

“The girl is in an uncomfortable predicament. Can’t you tell that the boy is tardy? If they miss the deadline for the marriage license, they should be mad at him!”

“At first glance, this man doesn’t seem to have as much wealth as this beauty. He doesn’t even own a car, yet he’s so impressive when he steps up to the plate. Nowadays, there are so many men who work hard to make ends meet!”

Work, hard, to, please?!

Joseph’s chest was boiling with rage, his teeth clenched and he glared fiercely at the young man who was spreading rumors.

The young man was so intimidated by his aura, as strong as the King of Hell, that he immediately calmed down like a
