Chapter 171 Xavia’s Letter

Chloe slept through the evening and woke up in a daze, finding a nurse attending to her hand.

“Your fever hasn’t subsided, so we’ll continue with the IV drip. You’ll need to stay in the hospital for observation today, so you can’t be discharged yet,” the nurse informed her.

“What’s my temperature?” Chloe asked.

“102.2,” Emily replied, tucking in the blanket around Chloe. “You should focus on resting in the upcoming days and avoid exerting yourself.”

“But what about work? And Joseph’s birthday? Also, the hearing is coming up in another two days…” Chloe voiced her concerns.

“Joseph is the CEO of Fairlight, so why worry about work? Besides, his birthday isn’t a one- time event. You’ll have an opportunity to make it up to him later. I’ve already delivered the gift on your behalf. As for the court hearing, it’s still some time away. You should be feeling better by then,” Emily reassured her.

“You’re right… By the way, where’s Joseph?”

“He had some business to attend to and just left.”

“Oh, does he like the gift I got him?”

The gift was considered low-priced for someone of his status.

‘Will he find it cheap?’

Recalling Joseph’s expression upon receiving the gift, Emily tilted her head and said, ” Outwardly, he appeared unimpressed, but behind closed doors, his smile stretched from ear to
