Chapter 473 Way to Go, Brother
Joseph firmly grasped her shoulders as he raised his eyebrows. “What nonsense are your talking about? Why would
I doubt you when it was just a baseless claim?”
Chloe was stunned, thrown off by his reaction.
Joseph continued, “I’ve already instructed for those articles to be taken down.”
“Oh, that’s what you’re talking about…”
“Of course,” he replied, his face growing stern. “Wait… Is there something else. you haven’t told me?”
Chloe shook her head. “No, no!”
Joseph narrowed his eyes. He sensed that she was hiding something, yet she kept her lips sealed. It seemed like he
had pampered her too much lately, and she had started lying again. He was infuriated, but he refrained from
pressing further for the time being. He knew there would be time to address this later, perhaps after dinner.
They had agreed that while spending time together, they would visit the family home and have meals with Harold.
As they passed by a mall, Chloe remembered Harold mentioning at newly released traditional pastry from a certain
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtstore, and he seemed to like it a lot.
Parking the car by the roadside, they entered the mall to make the purchase. The pastry was quite popular, and
there was a queue. Joseph looked toward the nearby supermarket and said, Stay in the line. I’m going to grab
something.”
“Okay,” Chloe replied.
After she had procured the pastries, he still had not returned. Curious, she went to the supermarket in search of
him. There, she saw him choose something from the shelves and then approached the counter to pay for a box of
L-sized condoms. The cashier looked
up, wearing a look that seemed to say “Way to go, brother.”
Chloe felt a mix of embarrassment, wanting to find a hole to hide in. ‘How could he purchase such a thing without
any hint of embarrassment?! And we don’t even need it right now!’
After the cashier completed the transaction, he handed the condoms to Joseph and teasingly remarked, “Your wife
is one lucky gal.”
Chloe expected Joseph to ignore the cashier’s comment, but much to her surprise, he responded, “She is.”
She could not stand it anymore and dragged him toward the exit. “Why did you buy this?”
“To use it.”
“You said you wouldn’t touch me!”
Looking down at her, Joseph’s jaw tensed as he retorted, “We’ve taken our wedding photos, and we’re about to
remarry. Why can’t I touch you?”
“But you made a promise!” Chloe replied, her frustration evident.
“I’ve changed my mind.”
“No! You can’t just change your mind like that!”
“Then tell me what you’re hiding from me,” Joseph said, his eyes narrowing with a hint of
threat. “Otherwise, I won’t hesitate to use every single condom in this box tonight.”
Feeling a mix of anger and embarrassment, Chloe shot back, “You’ll regret it.”
“Oh? I’ll regret it?”
It looked like the matter was serious.
Joseph firmly gripped her waist and gave it a slight squeeze. “Chloe, my patience has its limits.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe winced from the pinch, feeling both pained and ticklish. Unable to bear it, she swatted his hands away, “Let’s
go to the house and have dinner. We shouldn’t keep Grandpa waiting.”
“Fine, but after dinner, you better tell me the truth, or you’ll regret it,” he warned.
Her cheeks blushed, and she feigned nonchalance as she said, “Are you just teasing me?”
Joseph smirked playfully. “Teasing? You could say that. But if you don’t tell me the truth later, you might find it
difficult to get out of bed the next day.”
Chloe’s face turned red. ‘I might have trouble getting out of bed for a few days, but your kid might need to say
goodbye to this world before they’re even born.’
The day before, they were physically and mentally exhausted when they got to the family home, so they spent
most of their time sleeping except for mealtime. As a result, Harold did not get a chance to chat with Chloe. Upon
seeing her today, he greeted her with a big smile.” Oh my, who do we have here? Whose granddaughter-in-law is
this? You’re so stunning!”
Chloe’s mood instantly eased, and she sat down beside him, playfully mirroring his tone. ” Yours, of course.”
Harold’s smile did not fade as he sighed in relief. “I’m happy that you two have finally reconciled. Just let bygones
be bygones.”
