Chloe held that kind of excuse in contempt. “So you're not to blame just because you were drunk?” ‘Is someone allowed to behave recklessly just because they were drunk? This man is just an immoral person who has no limits and a bad character.” Noah was wearing a white suit, making him appear young and lively. Smiling, he glanced at Chloe before he ordered, “Get rid of him.
Chloe averted her gaze. “I'll leave now if there's nothing else.” “Are you going back to Aesper?” “Yes.” “That Aesper general manager is the son of one of the headquarters’s shareholders.” Chloe was enlightened. Turns out strings were pulled in that affair. No wonder that man managed to become the head of a branch given that he appeared like a convict who
had just been released from prison.
Noah took out a gift box and chuckled. “Ms. Chloe, this is our new seasonal item. It's for you, as a symbol of apology from Exotic Star.” Chloe glanced at the invaluable necklace in the gift box before she shook her head. “Mr. Noah, you handled this affair well and fast. I'm very satisfied. This necklace is very charming, and I'm flattered, but it's too expensive. | can't accept it.” The smile in Noah's brown eyes deepened. He repeated himself, “Take it. I'll be troubled by a guilty conscience if you don't. Besides, you're about to endorse Exotic Star's products soon. You have to own some jewelry from the company.

It was already noon by the time she stepped out of Exotic Star. The teambuilding group planned to return to Aesper at

While hailing a cab on an app, Chloe wanted to call Joseph. She then came across a post that Emily had posted to her social media saying that she had checked in at Docwood.
At Graceville Estate.
‘When Joseph came out from the bath, Xavia was still there. She was wearing his large shirt, smiling at him tenderly. “I'm sorry. | couldn't find my clothes, so | put yours on. Also, | don't blame you for what happened last night. I'll pretend it didn't happen.
Joseph clutched his forehead, feeling a great headache coming on. He had felt uncomfortable after drinking that cup of tea the day before. His consciousness became blurry, and he seemed to...have slept with a woman.

Hearing this, he looked toward the bottle of red wine on the coffee table out of the corner of his eye. The crease between his brows deepened.
“Joe, I'm going to head home first Rest well I'm very tired, and | want to go home to rest.” Xavia was generally considerate and sensible. It appeared like she did not want them to embarrass themselves even after such an incident had happened.
Joseph was left alone in the room. He seemed to recall something and pushed the blanket aside. He then noticed a dark red spot on the white bedsheet.
It was dazzling like a blooming rose.
At the same time, it reminded him of his action the previous night, snatching a woman's most valuable thing. He narrowed his eyes abruptly and had a hunch that ‘something was amiss.
