Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 268 Joseph’s Face Is Filled With Strangeness

“Okay, I’ll grant you 10 percent,” Benjamin reluctantly agreed.

Chloe remained firm. “That’s not enough. I want 20 percent.”

Benjamin’s expression shifted. “20 is too much.”

Undeterred, Chloe pressed on. “Nevertheless, you’ll have to give it to me eventually-to stop Ava from pursuing her intentions to claim it.”

Her directness struck a chord, and Benjamin, who had been deceived for two decades, surprisingly found her reasoning valid. Karen was not to be underestimated. In the future, she would try to extract as many assets from him as possible.

“Fine, we’ll arrange for that, but a portion of the shares is still registered under those bitches’ names. We have to transfer them back before I can allocate them to you.”

Chloe’s gaze flickered before responding, “All right. Then, I’ll remain at Fairlight for now. There are valuable connections here, and I can utilize them to benefit our family in the future. Oh, Dad, even though you’ve divorced Karen, you still need to legally sever your father- daughter relationship with Ava. That way, she won’t have any grounds to cling onto the Johnson name.”

“I’ll take care of it tomorrow. We can’t let them have any advantage.”

Benjamin’s animosity toward Karen had reached its peak. Nothing infuriated a man more than being cuckolded for two decades. He had hoped for Chloe’s return to the family, but she had refused with a justification for her decision. Since her attitude toward him seemed acceptable, he did not dwell on it.

As public transportation had ceased operating at this hour, Chloe planned to get a cab for her journey home. However, just as she was about to step onto the road, a nearby car suddenly switched on its high beams, flooding the street with its light.

She assumed that Joseph had already left, but to her surprise, he was standing by the car. His broad shoulders and long legs showcased his sleek and clean figure, accentuated by the tailored suit he wore. Joseph exuded an air of a top model-distinguished and elegant.

“There’s no need to go through all that trouble to secure the assets under your name,” Joseph remarked.
