Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 206 I’ve Never Held Baxon in High Regard

The lounge was empty, devoid of any sign of people.

Covertly, Chloe dialed Joseph’s number and discreetly pressed the record button. Sporting a puzzled expression, she asked, ” Isn’t there supposed to be an internal interview? Why are we here?”

Maurice locked the door behind him, unable to contain his impulses as he lunged toward Chloe. “It is an interview–an internal interview, a one–on–one kind,” he replied.

Chloe, who had prepared herself in advance, deftly sidestepped him, maintaining her composure. “How much money did you give Ellie to persuade her to do this?” she questioned.

Maurice was taken aback, surprised at how quickly Chloe had figured it out. He sneered and said, “Since you’ve already caught on, I won’t pretend anymore. It wasn’t much, just a few grand. But money isn’t the point here. The point is that I promised to help her deal with you.”

With his noble brows, captivating eyes, and an inherent radiance that seemed to adorn his entire being, he seemed to emanate a divine aura, as if a celestial being had descended into the room.

Even though this moment had been orchestrated, Chloe could not help but be captivated by the sight of him for a few

Joseph locked eyes with the naked Maurice, a tinge of disgust evident in his gaze. He removed his suit and placed it over Chloe’s head, shielding her from the unsightly spectacle.
