Jojo and Coco's Unexpected Love

Chapter 308 A Little Boost for You

Joseph’s face showed a hint of unease as he turned his head and reached for a change of clothes. “While you’re at it, make some snacks for the two dogs. If you can bring them back everything on your own, I’m too lazy to go with you.”

“Snacks for the dogs?” Chloe shook her head, earnestly calculating the items that needed to be purchased. “It’d be better if you came with me. I can’t carry everything myself.”

Just to cater to the culinary preferences of a certain someone, Chloe had to buy ingredients for two days, ensuring that each meal consisted of at least six different dishes without repeating ingredients. On top of that, there were chicken breasts and big bones required to prepare special snacks for the dogs. The shopping list was extensive, and it was clear that even the use of two large bags would be insufficient to hold everything.

Joseph casually smoothed down the wrinkles on his clothes, his expression displaying a hint of annoyance. “Ugh, you’re so troublesome.”

Chloe had initially planned to visit the nearby wet market, but Joseph insisted on driving her to Hola Mart instead. The store was known for its exclusive imported products, and the prices reflected their premium quality, with even a small bundle of ten strawberries costing over 30 dollars. Knowing that Joseph would foot the bill, she refrained from commenting.

At Hola Mart, not only did the selection of ingredients change every half day, but the store also had dedicated staff members stationed in front of each shelf. These attentive individuals resembled elevator attendants, poised to assist customers by personally retrieving their desired items and placing them directly into their shopping carts. It was a level of service that left customers feeling pampered and catered to, without absolutely no need to lift a finger. Chloe carefully selected a cart full of ingredients, ensuring they had everything they needed. As they made their way to the checkout counter, the supermarket manager came up and inquired about their satisfaction with the establishment’s services. Chloe nodded, inwardly noting that with the high prices they were paying, the least they could expect was excellent service. After all, a business charging premium prices should know how to meet customer expectations.

“I’m glad to hear that. At Hola, we strive to earn the approval of our customers. You two must be a married couple, right? We often have household helpers coming for groceries as customers. You must be very affectionate with each other,” the manager commented.

In affluent households, daily affairs were typically managed by dedicated servants, and the homeowners themselves would frequent establishments like Hola to immerse themselves in a certain ambiance and experience the essence of life.

Joseph, typically a man of few words, unexpectedly retorted, “Our affection has faded. She no longer has feelings for me. We’re having our final dinner together.”

Chloe’s mind raced with confusion. “The f*ck?’ she thought, ‘He didn’t have enough drama at the cafe last time and is now continuing it here?’
