Chapter 708 Her Tears Were Spent
Noah squinted and assessed Michael. After a while, he said, "Thank you for telling me."
"You're welcome."
After seeing Michael off, Noah went to the reception to ask about the situation. After confirming that Joseph was in the building, he immediately instructed security to head to Chloe's office.
Meanwhile, inside, Chloe said firmly, "Stop this. I trust Noah, and even if he had any past connection with Duskfall, I'm willing to forgive him."
Noah pushed the door open. All of the security guards were standing in a corner, looking cowed and defeated.
Frowning, Noah said, "Mr. Joseph, as a gentleman, you shouldn't force a lady to fall in love with you. Your relationship with Coco has ended, so why must you do this to yourself? It's so unsightly."
Joseph glared at Noah. "You know best why Chloe and I parted ways. I'll reveal everything you've done one by one. Just wait."
He knew Noah was involved in more than one thing, thus he still had hidden cards up his sleeve. Vanya had been cautious not to reveal everything, but he had a way to force her to spill the beans.
Noah's gaze fell on a recording pen on the desk. He asked Chloe gently, "Can I listen to it?"
Chloe hesitated for a moment before replying, "Sure."
After listening to the recording, Noah heaved a silent sigh of relief. As long as it was not about Chloe’s child, he could still find a way to justify himself.
But before he could say anything, Chloe said gently and understandingly, "The past is in the past. Regardless of the truth, I won't get mad at you. Just promise me you won't hide anything from me in the future."
Five years ago, Noah was still a student. He was inexperienced in a cutthroat world and had probably fallen victim to Duskfall's schemes.
Noah was slightly taken aback. He said, "Okay, I promise I won’t."
The difference in treatment Chloe showed him and Noah caused Joseph's breath to hitch and his fists to clench tightly.
"Are you sure you want to forgive him? Vanya did not specify whether it was just one instance or multiple instances," he said in a sarcastic tone.
Annoyed, Chloe pushed Joseph out of her office and said, "Stop talking. I'm not interested in hearing it."
Seeing the door close in his face, Joseph kicked it. "You’ll be the one to cry in the future!"
"Not going to happen. My tears were spent when I was with you, " Chloe said sarcastically.
Noah dismissed the security guards. Once only two of them were left in the office, he picked up the recorder. "Chloe, I—"
"I know what you want to say, but I don't want to bring up the past," Chloe interrupted, "Just tell me how many times you've lied to me and worked with Vanya."
Noah's throat tightened. After a while, he mumbled, "Only once." Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
"When?"
He hesitated for a moment, then let out a long sigh, looking somewhat dejected. "I don't know how to tell you. Can you please give me some time to organize my thoughts?"
Chloe did not want to make things difficult for him. “All right.”
Noah clenched his fists and tried to change the subject. "I found the buyer of the watch your mother left behind."
"Who is it?"
"Would you like to meet them?"
Chloe was taken aback, surprised that he had already arranged everything.
"Yes," she said.
She wanted to know if Benjamin was telling the truth or not, and whether this person had done wrong by her mother.
