Chapter 183 It’d Be a Pity if It Was True
Joseph’s brows went up as he glanced at Chloe, who appeared nervous. He then picked up his phone
and walked toward the backyard. Chloe frowned as she stared at his back as he left. She then took out
her phone and texted Emily.
[I think Ava filed a police report.]
[How shameless! She has done so many shameful things. Isn’t she afraid of being exposed?]
[But she didn’t leave any evidence.]
[What should we do now? Will officers be coming to take us away?]
When that scene came to mind, Emily was filled with a tinge of fear. [I think we’ll be fine. Joseph has a
relative working at the station. He just called Joseph. I guess he’s asking Joseph about the incident.]
At most, that incident could be considered a civil dispute. Since she and Ava had familial ties, she
assumed she just needed to apologize to Ava in public to resolve this. She did not mind apologizing to
Ava.
Hearing that, Emily relaxed. After chatting a bit, they ended
the conversation.

“Yes.”

And it was more than that. Ava was currently hospitalized with a come. There was a demand for a
psychological damage compensation fee of four million. If Chloe failed to pay amount, she had to
apologize to Chloe on the Internet via a live broadcast.
Chloe inevitably rolled her eyes. ‘How greedy! She actually has the balls to demand four million dollars.
“Should I go and apologize to her?”
“No, I’ll get a lawyer to deal with this.”
“Huh?” Chloe widened her eyes. “Are you going to ask Samuel for help?”
“Otherwise?” Helplessness engulfed Joseph. “Please be
smarter about it if you want to teach someone a lesson next time. What you did today may seem
harmless but powerful. Have you ever thought about the cost that comes to deal with the aftermath?”
“Yes, I did. I think apologizing to her is the smallest price to pay. I just need to say a few words. It’s
fine.” Chloe made up her mind and said seriously, “I’ll say sorry to her. It’s too expensive to hire Samuel
to do this.”
She decided to do that now and wanted to go upstairs to change her clothes and leave. Unexpectedly,
her slippers were wet from the water in the bathroom. She slipped and inevitably fell toward Joseph.
The latter reacted fast and quickly supported her.
At the same time, Chloe sought out support since she wanted
Ava’s date had been right beside her. There was no other way out except pretending to faint to avoid a
fatal humiliation and awkwardness.
When she saw that Benjamin was back, she eagerly sat up on the hospital bed. “Daddy, how did it go?
When is Chloe going to say sorry to me in public?”
“She refused to apologize.”
Great excitement dawned on Ava. “So, does that mean she agreed to pay me 4 million as
compensation?”
‘Is she that rich? I should’ve asked for more.‘
Karen did not have the heart to disappoint Ava, so she did not know how to expose the truth after being
hesitant for a long time. Benjamin vented all his fury out at the side and
demanded Ava stay far away from Chloe in the future.
Chloe was a curse.
After waiting for an entire afternoon, Ava only received $35. She collapsed on the bed as if she had
suffered an invisible slap, her face was burning with shame. She then clenched the bed sheets tightly

because of that b*tch Chloe. Two of her marriage prospects had been ruined. If she could not deal with
Chloe, she could at least bully Chloe’s old folks. It would be for the best if they were dead. If not, they
would suffer greatly.

The warmest season of the year descended on Aesper City.
Chloe took Toto for a walk in the morning. When she got
home, she was all sweaty. After taking a bath, she fished out a pair of breezy shorts and paired them
with a light, thin shirt. She wore her thick black hair in a bun. The getup made her appear pure and
young.
When Joseph saw her straight and symmetric legs as well as the large part of fair skin that was
exposed on her upper body, his face inevitably sank. “Are you planning to go to work in that?”
“Isn’t it pretty?” Chloe twirled in front of him. She looked fair and charming. Any expression she made
was bewitching and seductive.
Of course, an exceptional lady of her caliber was attractive. However, Joseph did not want others to
enjoy her charms. His expression became ice–cold. “Put on a different shir
