Chapter 46 Suspected of Theft

Chloe was both ashamed and angry. Her voice rose sharply. “You were eavesdropping on my conversation?!”

She could not comprehend why he was accusing her of such a thing. ‘Is he hard of hearing? If he had indeed overheard my conversation, why is he accusing me like this?’

“I was just passing by.” Joseph sneered as he shook the cup he was holding in her face.

He spoke the truth. Despite being angry upon overhearing Chloe’s conversation with another man, he was not someone who lacked emotional control, nor did he have a habit of snooping on other people’s conversations.

He was not expecting to come across such a scandalous scene just as he was walking out of his bedroom after retrieving his water glass.

“Open your eyes and see if I’m flirting with anybody!” she exclaimed.

“End the call. You’ve embarrassed yourself enough,” Joseph mocked her.
