Chapter 147

At this moment, a storm of emotions brewed beneath the somber and handsome face of Josephi

But Chloe didn’t have as complex thoughts as him, she simply felt extremely unlucky, like the unluckiest person in the world!

Meeting this despicable man in such a romantic and beautiful place was like a rose falling into a pile of dog poop, completely ruining the mood. Next time, she thought, she should check the lunar calendar before going out.

As for Grace, who was clinging to Joseph like a band-aid, she was just a pungent odor to Chloe, even a glance at her was irritating.

At this moment, Jerome, with his tall and graceful figure, leaned towards her, and his thin lips came close to her ear as he chuckled, “Don’t worry. I’m here.”

Chloe’s ears twitched, and she couldn’t help but think, “What’s there to be worried about? When you see a dog, just fight it off with another dog.”

“Miss Thorp, I never expected to run into you here.”

Grace put away her confrontational attitude and asked in a gentle and soft voice, “Is this gentleman your new boyfriend? You two seem to be a perfect match.”

Chloe’s eyes remained calm; she clearly didn’t want to engage with this troublemaker.

However, Jerome, with a smile that seemed almost mocking, spoke, “Thank you for your compliment, but I’m not Miss Thorp’s boyfriend yet.”

This statement left the straightforward Chloe momentarily perplexed.

However, Joseph, hearing this, tightened his grip, causing his arm muscles to become as hard as stone. His face turned as cold as a thousand-foot frozen lake.

Was he trying to provoke Joseph or challenge him, implying a relationship he couldn’t accept?

Grace saw Joseph’s brows furrowing, and she clenched her fingers around him tightly. She knew, deep down, that she couldn’t let go of this scoundrel!

But now that Chloe had found a new love, she could breathe a little casier.

At least, they needed to make one side give up completely on that three-year marriage!

But should she say it? Chloe’s luck seemed to be incredibly good. Who was this young master?

His demeanor was extraordinary, and his appearance was handsome.

“Is Mr. Sawle here to accompany his fiancée for a flower-viewing trip?”

Jerome’s lips curled slightly. “But you’d better hurry, Rose Manor is about to close.”
