Chapter 531 Let’s Make a Little Switch
“Oh my gosh! I’m so sorry!” Chloe quickly apologized as she covered her forehead and winced in pain.
“What are you so engrossed in?” a familiar voice of a young man asked.
Looking up, Chloe saw Noah, clad in a checkered shirt and carrying a black backpack, smiling brightly with
charming dimples on his cheeks.
Feeling downcast, Chloe hung her head and forced a laugh that seemed sadder than tears. “It’s nothing.”
Noah was slightly taller than Chloe. He gently lowered his head to meet her gaze as they talked. “You’re clearly
bothered by something,” he said, his face filled with concern.
Feeling the need to share her frustrations, Chloe could not hold back and confided, “Joseph will soon discover that
I’m pregnant.”

Chloe explained the whole situation, her voice filled with helplessness. She was truly at a loss and did not know what
to do next. On one hand, Joseph might be happy to know he was going to be a father, but on the other, he might be
angry that she had kept it from him for so long. Everything she had planned was slipping out of her control, and she
felt increasingly anxious.
Noah stared at Chloe for a while, then said, “Those herbs that you got from the hospital, what did they look like?”
“It was in transparent packaging with each dose individually wrapped.”
“And what does the herbalist that Mr. Joseph hired look like?”
“Kind of thin, not very tall, he sports a beard, and is around forty years old.”
“Is it Dr. Frederick Hartman?”
“I think so?”
“I know who it is,” Noah said, nodding firmly. Glancing at the time, he reassured Chloe, “That old herbalist is quite
famous. My grandfather has visited him before. I’ll go check it out. Maybe they haven’t started analyzing the herb
packets yet.”
Chloe remained stunned for a moment. “If they haven’t analyzed them, then what are we going to do?”
Noah tilted his head. It was unclear whether he was joking or serious about his next words. We’re going to make a
little switch.”
Knowing that Chloe’s pregnancy would only strengthen Joseph’s determination to keep her by
his side, even if it meant he had to employ forceful means, Noah realized that a direct confrontation was not an
option for them. That would also go against his grandfather’s. wishes. Continuing to deceive was the most effortless
method for now.
“What?” Chloe finally caught on. “You’re joking, right?”

window and waved at Chloe, who looked shocked. “You’ll hear back from me
soon.”
“Hey, don’t go!” Chloe realized he was serious and tried to stop him.
“This is too blatant! He’s going to get busted!’
As the heir of Exotic Star, how would others view him if they witnessed him stealing?
Chloe tried to call and message Noah several times, but he did not answer or reply. She could not believe he acted
so impulsively.
Upon learning about the situation, Emily excitedly slapped her thigh. “There’s no doubt about it. Noah likes you.”
“Stop talking nonsense and help me think of a solution.”
Otherwise, people who did not know the truth might think she had instigated Noah to do it.
“Trust me. He likes you. There’s no way he’d be so kind to someone for no reason. Unless he’s a klepto, of course.”
In movies, wealthy kids from privileged families often had various “special interests.” Chloe was taken aback. “Are
you serious? He doesn’t seem like that kind of person.”
