Chapter 601 She Was Truly Blind, Having Misjudged His Character
Emily lost one of her front teeth, and the dental department chief suggested, “The front teeth. are an important
part of a person’s appearance and should be carefully restored. I recommend getting a dental implant. I suggest
going to the hospital on Southgate Street. They have a dedicated department for dental care, and their facilities
are superior to ours.”
“Thank you, doctor…” Emily’s speech was affected by her missing tooth, resulting in a lisp that was both amusing
and pitiful.
A barely perceptible furrow appeared on Joseph’s brow. “Lucas, take her there. I’ll cover the expenses.”
Lucas nodded sympathetically, feeling sorry for Emily’s predicament. Losing a tooth must be painful.
“I don’t want your money! Stop pretending!” Emily retorted, displaying no interest in his
offer.
She chided herself for her naivety. When she first discovered Joseph the scumbag and Xavia had a one-night stand,
she should have distanced Chloe from him. If she had not forgiven him, Chloe would not have had to endure this

friend.
Joseph’s voice remained indifferent as he responded, “Don’t even think about taking Chloe away. It’s futile. Save
your energy.”
Fueled by anger, Emily shouted back, “If you want to treat her like this, why don’t you just let her go?!”
He paused for a moment, deep in thought. Why… He could not quite pinpoint the exact reason. It was not solely for
the sake of revenge against Chloe… Definitely not. He had never been one to waste time on useless individuals. He
thought that since he could not let go, perhaps they could continue to torment each other. It was better than having
no connection at all.
Chloe slept for a whole day, or rather, she just languished in bed. Through Lucas, she received word that Emily was
doing well, which provided some relief to her anxious heart.
In a dazed state, she found herself on the eve of the scheduled abortion surgery. But due to signs of a potential
miscarriage, she had to undergo preoperative examinations. With the assistance of a nurse, she completed the
necessary tests and returned to her ward to rest.
The doctor handed the examination results to Joseph. “Sir, your wife is showing symptoms of anemia, and based on
the examination report, her condition is deteriorating. It’d be risky to proceed with the surgery in her current state.
If she wants to proceed, she should improve her health first.”
Joseph was caught off guard. “Anemia is a common condition, isn’t it? Does it really have such a significant
impact?”
“Yes, but the severity of your wife’s symptoms is concerning.”
“What can we do to improve her health?”
“I’ll prescribe her some medication, but in addition to that, you could also explore herbal remedies for anemia. ”
Joseph recalled the herbalist, Doctor Frederick, whom he had called on before. Without hesitation, he returned to
the ward and took Chloe along with him to find the herbalist. Like a wooden doll, Chloe followed him with a vacant
expression, devoid of any vitality.
Joseph gently cupped her cheeks and compelled her to meet his gaze. “Aren’t you curious about where we’re
going?”
“Our destination won’t change whether I ask or not, so what’s the point of asking?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoseph released his grip on her and let out a cold snort. “At least you’re sensible.”
At the clinic, Frederick measured Chloe’s blood pressure. Before he could say anything, Joseph instructed Lucas to
take Chloe back to the car. Chloe, too weak to speculate on his intentions, silently followed Lucas.
As he watched Chloe leave, Frederick remarked, “Her anemia is quite severe.”
“Please prescribe the medication,” Joseph paused, “She’s pregnant by the way.”
“I know. I’ve already taken note of that. I’ll make sure not to use any ingredients that
pregnant women should avoid.” Frederick looked puzzled for a moment and asked,
According to the timeline, when you requested medication for menstrual pain through your assistant, she was
already pregnant. Did you not realize it at that time?”
“I believe she should’ve noticed.”
“Ah, then why didn’t she inform me?”
“I don’t know.”
There was no change in Joseph’s expression as if they were discussing what to have for dinner.
Frederick’s mouth fell open, sensing the sudden chill in the air. He felt a growing unease and avoided eye contact
with Joseph. After a moment of silence, he let out a dry laugh. “Perhaps she wanted to surprise you.”
Joseph did not continue the conversation as he waited to collect the medication.
Inside the car, with no one else around, Chloe glanced around, pondered for a few seconds, and said to Lucas,
“Could you do me a favor?”
