“Even if you claim that Mr. Joseph cares for you, you can’t bully me like this. I’m just at newcomer who knows nothing. The incident this morning was my fault, but you could’ve just talked to me about it instead of resorting to violence,” Sophia pleaded.

Chloe saw through Sophia’s intentions at a glance and made no move to help her up. “What are you up to this time?”

“I don’t have any ulterior motives. I just want you to leave me alone!” Sophia cried out, her tears flowing uncontrollably. As she sobbed, she crawled toward the direction where Joseph stood. “Mr. Joseph, you’ve to help me.’

Observing the poised and indifferent woman in front of him, Joseph said in a cold tone, When a colleague falls in front of you, don’t you think you should offer a helping hand?”

Upon hearing his voice, Chloe turned her head abruptly. Then, she saw Joseph instructing Lucas to help Sophia up from the ground. He treated a new employee with such gentleness but remained cold toward her.

Chloe pursed her lips and defiantly exclaimed, “She intentionally threw herself to the ground! If I helped, it would’ve disrupted her plan!”

Sophia’s face turned pale, and she nervously looked up at the man.

Joseph narrowed his dark, piercing eyes in disapproval. “You think that

everyone

who gets

hurt did so intentionally?”

“Don’t misinterpret my words.”

“Your words directly imply that. Once you’ve done something, you’ve done it. Stop attempting to evade responsibility,” Joseph said, his words cold and piercing through Chloe cruelly. It felt like an invisible mountain pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.

‘What does he mean by “once you have done something, you’ve done it”? Is he referring to now, this morning, or everything?’

Chloe looked at the familiar yet distant face in front of her and let out a bitter laugh. “Fine, if that’s what you think, then I can’t do anything about it.”

The sunlight was blazing, yet everyone standing beside Joseph felt a chill down their spines.

“Come with me,” he said, striding forward with long steps and entering the company building.

Sophia eagerly followed behind, secretly reveling in her triumph. When she reached them, she noticed Lucas looking at her with a puzzled expression.

“What are you doing?” he asked.

Lucas’ expression was laced with subtle amusement. “Mr. Joseph was talking to Ms. Chloe.”

Sophia’s face stiffened for a moment. “No way, Mr. Lucas. I’m sure you must have misunderstood.”

Lucas chuckled softly, “I’ve been by Mr. Joseph’s side for many years. I think I understand him better than you do.”

“Don’t do anything stupid,” a colleague interjected, providing Sophia with an escape route.” Lunch break is about to end, and we should get back to work.”

Sophia watched as Chloe limped alongside Lucas into the exclusive elevator and decided not to complain. After all, she was currently working with that woman and had no expectations of capturing Joseph’s attention. Perhaps that woman had feelings for Joseph as well, otherwise, why would she try to sow discord between Chloe and him?

In the office, Chloe frowned the entire time. She had no desire to argue with Joseph and went straight to the point. “In the morning, I printed out pictures of Oreo and Toto and distributed them to passersby. If anyone sees them, they’ll contact me. Do you have any leads on your end?

Joseph glanced at her coldly. “We already found them.”

Chloe felt a glimmer of joy in her heart, but before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, she was drenched in an icy shower the next second, freezing her from head to toe.

“Go apologize to Xavia,” Joseph said, his voice devoid of mercy.

Chloe’s pupils contracted sharply, her voice trembling slightly, “What did you say?” “She took a stab for you, yet you lost her dog. Shouldn’t you apologize?” he stated.
