Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love pdf

Chapter 227 The Master of Time Management

When Lucas arrived at the marketing department, Chloe was organizing the data and marketing copy for the afternoon meeting. Lucas took her to a secluded spot and whispered, “Ms. Chloe, did you run into Icarus last night?”

She paused, “How did you know?”

“The whole neighborhood is talking about it.”

During the elevator ride, Lucas filled her in on everything that had transpired in the homeowners’ group, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. “Mr. Joseph is extremely angry, so when you go in, it’s important not to confront him directly. Speak softly, explain clearly, and try to soothe his anger with kind words. I believe things can be resolved”

Nervously, Chloe fidgeted with her fingernails, took a deep breath, and mustered the courage to push open the office door.

“Jojo, it’s not what you think. Icarus and I just happened to bump into each other. He has a friend who lives in our neighborhood.”

Seated on the sofa, Joseph nonchalantly stretched out his long legs over the coffee table, his gaze piercing and frigid. “Oh, what a remarkable coincidence. You seem to have a knack for stumbling upon extraordinary situations.”

“I’m not lying to you. I really am–”

Her explanation was cut short by Joseph’s biting sarcasm.

“The master of time management, right?”

Who would have thought that a harmless joke would manifest into reality? Making time for flirtation while taking the dogs for a stroll.

Chloe’s delicate face contorted with hurt as she bit her lip, struggling to find the words.

“Speak up!” Joseph’s impatience transformed into a stern reprimand. “Did you resort to hitting the dogs because they interrupted your flirtatious encounter?”

“I didn’t cheat or harm the dogs. I was simply afraid that you’d misunderstand, so I didn’t mention it. Toto and Oreo unexpectedly pulled me, and I lightly smacked them. Can you please refrain from thinking of me in this way and have some trust in each other? Moreover, in the photo, there was no inappropriate behavior between Icarus and me, right?”

Joseph stood up abruptly. His imposing figure advanced toward her, closing the distance with – each deliberate step. With a sneer on his face, he assumed a dominant position and said, “There may be nothing in the photos, but who knows what the surveillance cameras missed-the unseen angles nobody would know.”

A surge of injustice washed over Chloe as she was backed into a corner. She mustered her courage and asked, “Is this how you truly see me?”

“A person who thrives on lies is concerned about others’ opinions?”

“That’s enough!”
