Chapter 682 He Can Tell Who’s Kind or Mean
Chloe's lips twitched before blurting out, "Only Xavia would do that kind of thing.”
After saying that, she recalled that Jasper was Xavia's child, and a tinge of awkwardness hung in the air between them.
Jasper stared at her with his clear eyes. "So why did you post a long complaint on the Internet yesterday if you had no such intention?"
"Now that’s silly. Are you saying that I should just continue to suffer in silence since I've done it for five years?"
"But you didn't provide any evidence. It's just your one-sided statement."
"I don't need evidence. Your mother knows more than anyone if I'm right or wrong. And from another point of view, she didn’t provide any evidence to refute my words.”
Jasper fell silent and furrowed his brows. Chloe thought he was unhappy about her criticizing Xavia. But regardless, she was the victim here. She turned away and ignored him as the latter remained silent, staring out of the window as if pondering something.
Chloe accompanied Harold in watching an episode. After about an hour, she packed up the tab and walked toward the door without saying a word to Jasper.
"I think you're right,” Jasper said just as Chloe was about to step out of the room.
From the time he started remembering things, he already knew his mother was a bad person. He was young, but he could tell who was kind-hearted and who was mean-spirited. Otherwise, he would not have understood why his father disliked his mother.
The truth might be what Chloe had said, or there could be another reason. He found Chloe very friendly and familiar the first time he met her—different from others—but he could not pinpoint what it was. This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
Chloe turned to look at Jasper reaching out to touch his forehead. "You're not having a fever. Why are you talking nonsense?"
No children would believe an outsider instead of their mother.
Jasper angrily smacked her hand away. "I trust you. Just forget it if you don't trust me."
Chloe was at a loss for words. ‘What the… He strikes back? What a haughty child.'
"Okay, enough for today. Go home and do your homework. I'm going home too."
"Will you fight Xavia for Daddy?"
"No."
Surprisingly, a pang of disappointment hit him when he heard her answer but he did not reveal it. "Why?"
Chloe smiled brightly. "I don't like him anymore. I don’t have to be with someone I don't love."
A man happened to be standing outside the word, and he heard her every word. He hung his head and felt at a loss after the brief heart-wrenching pain subsided. He usually had full control over everyone and everyone. Whatever incident happened, he resolved it with ease.
Chloe was the exception and always had been.

Chloe exited the hospital and quickly sped off in her car. Joseph stood by the window and stared out of it. Long after the car was gone, he slowly looked away.
Jasper jumped down from his stool. He said straightforwardly, "Daddy, you like her."
