Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 180 Since When Do You Eat Leftover Pasta?

Emily could not comprehend the absurdity of her mother’s demand for Chloe to take responsibility. It seemed like a shameless ploy.

“Mom, Dad, I’m begging you. Please don’t make things worse for me. It was my mistake. I shouldn’t have trusted that jerk.”

“Shut up!” Lina retorted in a low voice, “Can’t you see how fiercely Chloe’s boss is protecting her? There must be some hidden connection between them, which means we should demand proper compensation for the harm they’ve caused us.

She insisted on seeking compensation from Chloe, and if monetary compensation was not given, she hoped at least for her daughter to be offered a job in their company as reparation. In Lina’s eyes, this office appeared larger and more prestigious than Emily’s current workplace.

Without her presence, Chloe could now handle the situation without having to take her feelings into consideration.

Joseph turned around, his gaze icy and piercing, sending a shiver down Lina’s spine. Her hand trembled, and she released her grip on Chloe. Swallowing nervously, she said, “I… As parents, is it wrong for us to seek justice for our daughter?”

“Seeking justice isn’t wrong, but you’re placing all the blame on my people, and that’s something you should never do,” Joseph responded firmly.
