Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 137 Personal Grievances

“Hi, I’m here to help Chloe deliver Mr. Joseph’s lunchbox. She’s currently conducting a site inspection and couldn’t get away. I’m the secretary of the boss from the office across the street,” Melody introduced herself.

Lucas took a sharp breath, feeling a headache coming on. He had just informed Joseph moments ago that Chloe would soon be arriving with his lunchbox. Joseph had neatly stowed away the documents on his desk, and his frosty countenance softened somewhat when he heard what Lucas said. However, the person who stood before him now was not Chloe, and an uneasy feeling settled over Lucas.

Despite his internal frustrations, Lucas maintained his composure as a professional secretary, ensuring his emotions did not betray him on his face. He put on a courteous demeanor and guided Wendy toward Joseph’s office.

“All right, please follow me,” he said.

‘F*ck it! I’m sorry, Miss, but I need someone to help me take the blame. And no one is more suitable than you for this job.”

Following closely behind Lucas, Melody hastily took out a small mirror and checked her reflection, eagerly anticipating the moment when Joseph would see her.

“Mr. Joseph, your lunchbox is here,” Lucas said and promptly exited the office, fearing that Joseph’s anger would fall on him.

Joseph kept his eyes down and focused on his phone.

“Mm,” he replied lazily.

He was wearing a light blue shirt today as he sat in his office chair, his fingers gliding effortlessly across the pages of a book. With his head low, his long eyelashes veiled the frostiness in his gaze, adding a touch of charm and gentleness to his already captivating
