Chapter 678 Drunk Driving Is Illegal, Let’s Call the Police
Seeing that Joseph was about to follow Chloe, Callum firmly held onto the steering wheel and said irritably, "I'll lose all respect for you if you go after her."
Frowning, Joseph replied, "I can't let her go with Noah."
"Then you need a new approach. Your previous methods won't work. You can't be forceful when it comes to wooing women."
Joseph managed to calm down and regained some of his composure. "What's the matter with Imperium?"
"Nothing."
"What do you mean?"
"Fine, it's about Cyrus."
Joseph's face sank. "Does he know about our relationship?"
"No," Callum replied, lighting up a cigarette. "Besides, we're just friends. Imperium is yours and yours alone."
Joseph did not pursue that topic further and asked, "Did Cyrus approach you?"
"Yes. He wishes for Otto to marry my daughter."
Understanding instantly dawned upon Joseph. The Sinclairs had a long history in the underworld. However, they recently turned to legitimate businesses, with the political arena being the only realm they had yet to touch. Marrying Callum's daughter would be a way to officially step into that domain.
"What do you think about it?" Joseph asked.
"I don't really care. It depends on my daughter's view of Otto."
"Aren't you worried he'll take advantage of her?" Joseph asked.
"Do you think he has the guts to do that?"
While it was true that Cyrus would not dare to do it now, who knew what would happen years from now when Callum was no longer around? People like Cyrus had plenty of patience.

On their way back to the Sullivan estate, Chloe asked, "Did Joseph drink tonight?"
"Probably."
"Drunk driving is illegal."
Understanding her intention, Noah cooperatively took out his phone and dialed the emergency number. "We should report it."
A playful smile appeared on Chloe's lips as she put on a light-hearted song and hummed to the melody.
Once home, Chloe sat on the bed with her laptop. She shared the news of Joseph's drunk driving with the paparazzi and meticulously composed a lengthy three-thousand-word exposé on social media. She recounted the entire saga of her relationship with Joseph—from their marriage to their eventual divorce.
In her detailed account, she did not shy away from shedding light on Xavia's nefarious plans to harm Toto and Oreo, as well as revealing how she got pregnant with Joseph's child. To top it all off,
she also exposed the fact that Xavia had shamelessly tried to garner more attention through live streaming her suicide attempt.
With a click of the send button, Chloe stretched and prepared to rest. Just then, her phone on the bedside table rang. It was Jasper calling. She knew she should keep her distance from Xavia's child but she somehow found the kid interesting and adorable.
Without much hesitation, she answered the call. "Children shouldn't stay up late. Otherwise, they will never grow tall."
"It's only half past ten. It's not late at all."
"Huh? What child stays up till half past ten?"
"Plenty. My classmate is still up playing games."
Chloe was speechless. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Do you want to visit Greatpapi together tomorrow?"
"No, I have something to do tomorrow."
Chloe had to familiarize herself with Exotic Star’s business as soon as possible so that she could share the burden of managing it with Noah.
"I'll wait till you’re done."
"No. After I'm done, I'll be exhausted and need to rest."
"Daddy told me that Greatpapi has shown signs of waking up soon."
Chloe was shocked. "Well then, let me know when he does wake up."
"No. If you don't come with me to see Greatpapi, I won't tell you anything about him."
"What time tomorrow?"
"Anytime is fine. I get out of school at half past five, so we can go at six."
"Fine, see you then."
"Make sure to save my number," Jasper said assertively.
