Chapter 423 A Bag Fanatic
After a brief pause, Chloe shook her head. “Forget it. I’ll call him back when my phone is charged. It’s probably
nothing urgent.”
“Okay. Which unit do you stay at?”
“Fifth. How about you?”
“Sixth. Hey, our units are next to each other.”
Chloe slowly widened her eyes. “It really is written in the stars. I thought your university was at Docwood.”
“Yes, I studied my undergraduate course there, and I’m about to start my postgraduate soon. I chose to study in
Aesper.”
Enlightenment dawned on Chloe. Postgraduate students started their semester around September and it was
already August. If he had no plans to stay at the university, he would. have to rent a place and must have gotten a
unit in Oceanic Residence.
They chatted with each other casually and said goodbye when they arrived at their respective
units.
When Chloe got home, she charged her phone and called Joseph back. “My phone battery died when you called
me. I just charged it.”
Joseph’s unique and magnetic voice came to her. “You’re home?”
“Yeah, I am. How’s Xavia?”

Hearing this, Chloe’s slender and long eyelashes lowered. “So do I have to accept Xavia’s child if we remarry in the
future?”
“We’ll discuss this after the result of the amniocentesis.”
“I want to know the answer now.”
After a brief silence, Joseph heaved a sigh. “That’s not only Xavia’s child but mine too. I don’t want to be an
irresponsible father, but I guarantee you that you won’t have to see Xavia again.”
Consequently, deep gloominess and despair overcame her.
“Okay, I understand. I want to go to bed now. Goodnight.”
Staring at his phone after she hung up on him, Joseph found this issue hard to handle. When he was back at his
villa, he contacted Nathan.
Nathan was currently bored after enjoying some time at a nightclub. When Joseph summoned
him, he bought some snacks and beer before eagerly heading to Joseph’s villa. On his way there, he was
inexplicably excited and curious. He felt that something must be troubling Joseph since he was not yet asleep at
such a late hour.
After Nathan learned about the situation, he tapped his chin in contemplation. “Dude, this is a stalemate. You can’t
abandon this child. At the same time, Chloe is absolutely innocent.”
Joseph relaxed and leaned into the sofa, casually propping his legs on the coffee table and crossing them. He
accepted a bottle of beer and gulped it down. “How should I resolve this?”
“There’s no solution for this. Just be nicer to Chloe. Buy her cars and bags, and give her money.
“That’s it?” Joseph shot Nathan a sidelong glance.
“Dude, I’m a playboy, not God. I can’t change something like that.”
Nathan had long guessed that neither Xavia nor Chloe could not be easily trifled with. It would be very meddlesome
regardless of whom Joseph chose. And as expected, that was indeed the truth.
Joseph narrowed his eyes slightly. ‘Buy her cars and bags… If I’m not mistaken, the dumbo has no driving license.,
so I can only buy her bags.’
The next day, Chloe woke up early to go to the office. When she arrived, she was floored.
At the ground floor entrance were more than ten trucks filled with branded bags. The drivers. and workers had
never carried such items before and appeared slightly awkward. A man who looked like a mall manager was
ordering them around, and the workers carried the bags into the building in an orderly fashion.
Chloe walked over, clearly stunned. “What…”
“Ms. Chloe, right?”
Chloe nodded in a daze. “Yeah.”
“Ms. Chloe, you’re one lucky woman. These are all gifts that Mr. Joseph bought you. All the branded bags in Aesper
are here. Some were even shipped here overnight from further locations.” 1
Speechlessness overwhelmed Chloe. At that moment, Joseph texted her and asked if she liked the bags. She
replied, (Umm…]
When Joseph read this, he thought she disliked the bags. [Hurry up and get a driving license. I’ll buy you cars
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏminstead.]
Chloe did not understand what he was doing. Did he want to compensate her for what happened the night before?
Although she loved money, this sort of thing that went against
her principles could not be resolved with money.
At the same time, the rich, young ladies of Aesper flared up in a rage. They posted on the Internet and made angry
statements.
[I booked the limited-edition bag over half a month ago, but someone stole my joy. I’m so pissed!]
[Me too. I happily went to buy the bag this morning, but then they told me that it’s been sold.] [Same here. I heard
from my besties that a bag fanatic appeared in Aesper. They bought all the bags from all the exclusive shops.]
As Chloe gazed at the warehouse full of priceless bags, she felt sorry that she had to leave them there. If they were
accidentally scratched, their prices would drop. She then decided to put them on a secondhand platform to sell
them at ten percent off, taking photos of each bag before putting away a few for the outstanding female
employees in her company. She also kept two which Emily liked but could not bring herself to buy.
Chloe posted the photos on the secondhand platform, and more than ten bags were sold within minutes. These rich
ladies sure had a lot of money. The only question they asked was whether the bag was brand new before snatching
them up.
The money Chloe earned from selling the bags that morning was equal to her company’s monthly profits. However,
she was not happy. She found that her social status was vastly different from Joseph’s. 1
At one o’clock in the afternoon, she had just finished writing half of a proposal when Joseph called and told her to
meet him downstairs. They would go to the prison together to ask Benjamin about her mother.
