Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 395

Chapter 395 Do You Want to Be Labeled a Murderer?

Chloe’s heart raced as if she had grasped a lifeline. She urgently pleaded with Joseph, “Quick! Take Toto to the vet hospital now!”

Witnessing the scene before him, Joseph’s face turned pale, and he immediately contacted the veterinarian. The knife was still embedded in Toto’s body, and they could not simply move it around.

Pointing at the fruit knife on Toto’s belly, Xavia asked, her voice laced with disbelief, “Chloe, isn’t this fruit knife from your home?”

Chloe’s scalp tingled and a chilling thought took hold of her as she looked closely. It was indeed her own fruit knife. Someone had intruded into her house in the middle of the night and harmed Toto without her knowledge. But what if the intruder’s real target was herself? Would she have met the same fate as Toto? Or perhaps, without Toto, the person lying in a pool of blood would be her…

“How could you commit such a heinous act?! If you hate me, that’s one thing, but Toto is innocent!” Xavia shouted angrily, her eyes turning red as tears streamed down her face.

However, Chloe caught a flash of satisfaction in her eyes. Suddenly, everything clicked into place.

Chloe stared at Xavia fiercely. “It was you, wasn’t it?”

The previous intentional visit with Toto and Oreo to her house was merely a setup for the current situation. Otherwise, why would Xavia make a special trip just to learn about pet snacks?

Furthermore, the incident where Toto and Oreo were kidnapped by dog traffickers, and the deliberate placement of freeze-dried treats on the ground to lure them into a blind spot of the surveillance cameras, indicated a premeditated plan.

“You’re spouting nonsense! Toto was harmed in your house, and the weapon belongs to you! Stop trying to shift the blame!” Xavia retorted.

“Take those words to the police!” Chloe’s voice was filled with determination.

She had not touched the fruit knife, so it would surely carry the criminal’s fingerprints.

Chloe grabbed Xavia’s hand and decided to report her to the police.

Xavia’s beautiful face flashed with a sinister expression as she grabbed Chloe’s hand and forcefully pulled it toward herself. Suddenly, she staggered backward, but Joseph swiftly caught her in time.

Under Chloe’s bewildered gaze, Xavia’s demeanor shifted to one of fear and she anxiously said to Joseph, “She pushed me so hard. If you hadn’t caught me, she’d have killed me and our

child!”

Chloe lowered her head, her hands pulled out in a manner that suggested a pushing motion.

Xavia had her back turned to Joseph, so he failed to see what she had done.

‘What a cunning woman she is!’

“I didn’t push her!” Chloe stubbornly stared at Joseph, her eyes containing a hint of hope, longing for him to believe her. Joseph silently met her gaze, his brow furrowing deeply. Chloe felt her heart ache like it was being pricked by needles.

Once again, he did not believe her.

‘So he believes that I harmed Toto and pushed Xavia?’

Even though she knew it would end up this way, she still felt a chill in her heart. She had cared for Toto for a time, and even though she had left his house, she would never take her frustration out on a helpless dog. How twisted must someone’s mind be to do such a thing?

Xavia regained her composure but remained nestled in Joseph’s comforting embrace. With teary eyes, she said, “Ms. Chloe, regardless of whether you despise or envy me, I’m now a pregnant woman. Setting aside the temporary mistreatment of Toto, do you really want to be labeled a murderer? I’ve never provoked you, and I’ve always shown you respect. I always wanted to build a good relationship with you. If you have any grievances, direct them toward me, but please don’t harm my child. If there’s ever a next time, I’ll show you what a mother will do when her kid is hurt!”
