Chapter 650 Life Is Meaningless
“Mind your own business,” Joseph said and dragged Chloe away.
Emily stomped her foot in frustration ‘Jeez, he’s so unreasonable”
In the car, silence hung between Joseph and Chloe as they exchanged glances Chloe turned to
stare out of the window. Joseph felt a sense of sadness at being ignored. Sitting at the front, Lucas
tried his best to minimize his presence, hoping not to incur either of their wrath.
After a while, Joseph said after composing himself, “We’ll get the maternity DNA test results for
Amelia and Karen the day after tomorrow.”
Chloe turned back to him. Her voice shook with emotion as she asked, “You believe me?”
“When did I ever say I didn’t?”
“You never once believed me and always doubted me,” she retorted.

The sky darkened, and they slowly left Aesper, heading toward the direction of Docwood. As she
watched the passing scenery, Chloe asked, “Aren’t we going home?”
Joseph replied calmly, “No, we’re going somewhere else.”
“Where?”
“Our marital home,” Joseph continued, his gaze softening slightly. “It’s located at the boundary
line of Docwood and Cloude. The renovations are done and the place has been furnished. We’ll be
living there from now on.”
The boundary line of Docwood and Cloude…”
This meant that Emily would not be able to visit Chloe, and the latter did not know anyone in that
area. It would be a lonely place with only herself for company. Chloe’s shoulders slumped in
defeat like a withering flower losing its vitality.
Sensing something amiss, Joseph grabbed her shoulders and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you
feeling unwell?”
“Are you trying to push me into my grave?”
He was taken aback and stared at her incredulously. “I’m trying to push you into your grave by
taking you to a safer place? Is that how you see me?”
Lucas could not help interjecting, “Ms. Chloe, you’ve misunderstood Mr. Joseph. You can’t stay in
your original home since it’s no longer safe. Besides, we’re going to your marital home. You’ll be
living there in the future.”
Chloe let out a soft, bitter laugh. Although it was barely audible, one could sense the deep despair
in it. “That place isn’t a marital home. It’s a prison with no freedom.”

“Ms. Chloe, please don’t think like that. This is only temporary. You don’t know all the difficulties
Mr. Joseph has gone through for you-”
“Please, I beg you. Please let me go,” Chloe pleaded, interrupting Lucas, “I can’t bear another day
with you. If this continues, I’ll lose my mind.”
Every day, she feared being forced to have an abortion and taking herbal medicine. She had no
access to fresh air and was frequently bothered by Xavia. Her life lacked peace. Now, in this new
place, she was unsure if her plan would work out.
If her plan failed, she might be stuck here forever.
Joseph stared into her eyes. “Being with me makes you miserable?”
“Yes, it’s agonizing. I’m so tired. I feel that life is meaningless,” Chloe cried, pouring out her
heartfelt words.
“And who gives your life meaning? Icarus?” He continued to stare at her, his gaze penetrating.
