Chapter 510 Noah’s Premeditated Plan
Joseph paid no heed to her words as if he were deaf and stomped on the accelerator.
Chloe exclaimed, “Hey, why are you speeding up?”
Joseph shot back, “Why was Noah at Oceanic Residence wearing pajamas?”
“He’s studying at a nearby university and stays there for convenience.”
For a moment, Joseph felt the urge to punch the steering wheel. He gritted his teeth and asked, “When did he move in?”
“I don’t know. Probably around the same time as me.”
The air around Joseph turned oppressively dark, and the knuckles of his hand on the steering wheel whitened from the tension. “You’re moving back to the villa today.”
“Why?”
“Noah has ulterior motives toward you.
Chloe chuckled helplessly and asked, “Where’s your evidence?”
“Isn’t it suspicious that he chose to live in the same apartment as you?”
“He moved there to pursue his postgraduate studies. I don’t have the charm to control which university he attends.”
Joseph asserted confidently, “He had a premeditated plan and made careful preparations.”
“Forget it. I can’t reason with you!” Chloe grew frustrated and turned her face toward the window, feeling powerless.
Joseph glanced at her through the corner of his eye and pondered for a moment before. breaking the silence. “I’ve sent a text to Hazel as you requested.”
Chloe’s eyebrows twitched, recalling the screenshot Joseph sent her this morning. Apologies should be timely. If he had done that decisively last night, both sides would have been pleased. But now, after a whole night had passed, Chloe was no longer angry and felt that his actions had been unnecessary.
Joseph noticed her lack of response and felt perplexed. He could not understand why she was still unhappy.
On their way to the Johnson Group, Chloe was lost in her thoughts. As they passed Fairlight, her attention was caught by a figure swiftly passing outside the window. Her spirit jolted.” Stop the car.”
“Why?” Joseph was puzzled.
“I saw Hazel entering Fairlight.”
“What’s she doing at the office?”
“And who should I ask for the answer? It’s not like it’s my company,” Chloe hinted with a meaningful look.
Joseph was at a loss for words in response to her question.
The car came to a halt, and Chloe wasted no time rushing toward the direction Hazel had gone. True to their suspicions, she had indeed entered Fairlight. Joseph and Chloe exchanged glances, their faces filled with doubt. They observed her holding a folder and engaging in conversation with the receptionist. After a brief exchange, the receptionist instructed her to wait in the lounge area.
Soon, someone from the HR department came downstairs to receive her. It became evident that Hazel had successfully passed an interview and secured a position at Fairlight.
Chloe took a deep breath, lifted her head, and locked her gaze on Joseph, eager to see how he would handle the situation.
Joseph approached and intercepted the HR executive. “Leslie, what’s going on here?”
The executive appeared taken aback by Joseph’s appearance. “Mr. Joseph…”
“Did you not understand my question?”
“Oh! I just came downstairs to accompany the new employee for the onboarding procedure.
have any specific instructions, sir?”
Do you
Joseph’s brows furrowed, and his gaze fixated on Hazel. “So, you intend to work here?”
Hazel, unaware of Chloe’s presence behind her, appeared somewhat coy. “Um, Mr. Joseph, please rest assured that my father and brother do not speak for me. I’m determined to work hard and contribute to Fairlight’s success.”
“No need for that. Find another company.”
Hazel’s face turned pale and tears welled up in her eyes. “Did I do something to upset you?”
“No.”
“Then why-”
“There’s no need for you to know that,” Joseph replied. He then turned to the HR executive and instructed, “Cancel the onboarding process. She can proceed with the resignation procedure.”Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
