Chapter 195 The Big Shot in the Entertainment Industry

Chloe’s face froze, overwhelmed by a bitter and melancholic sensation that consumed her heart. Indeed, they were merely bound by a contractual relationship. Even though there had been fleeting moments of sweetness that morning, their relationship remained imbalanced.

“Fine, my mistake. I won’t say anything,” she admitted weakly.

Wearing a fake smile, Chloe replied, “Is this smile satisfactory for serving your beloved dog?”

Joseph responded, “Not enough. Make the smile even bigger.‘
