Chapter 213 Want to See What She Looks Like?

Chloe’s parched throat burned. She had not had any water for a long time, rendering her voice hoarse and feeble.

“Water,” she croaked.

In response to her plea, Joseph immediately released her hand and poured a glass of water for her. Chloe eagerly gulped it down, relieving the dryness in her throat and alleviating the stinging sensation. Then, she fell silent again.

“I’m thinking about what you’re thinking,” Chloe replied.

“And have you figured it out?”

“I have my guesses,” she replied. “You’re married, yet you’re seeing another woman. While you want Xavia, you want me as well.”

Chloe’s eyes bore into his, concealing a deep sense of disdain. He was the one who kicked her out of his car, and now he was pretending to be worried about her. He truly was a despicable man.

Joseph sneered coldly. “Are you jealous?”
