Chapter 128 A Dowry Is a Woman’s Pre-marital Asset

"I’m going home!"

"Ah, what a coincidence. Shall we?"

Chloe took a deep breath, mustering a smile as she said, "Joseph, are you trying to prevent me from leaving because you desire my body?"

"Hah, can't I use the same excuse on you? After all, you didn't resist, and it seemed like you were enjoying it," Joseph retorted.

Chloe was momentarily speechless, taken aback by his quick-witted response. Feeling a mixture of embarrassment and frustration, she found him shamelessly clever. She grinned and countered, "Yes. After all, you were the one who took the initiative this time."

Upon hearing her words, a fleeting expression of unease crossed Joseph's usually composed and handsome face, and he let out a light snort. "As you wish."

In this verbal skirmish, neither of them emerged as the clear victor.

Chloe shot him a fierce glare before retreating to the office restroom to compose herself. In front of the mirror, her face bloomed like a peach blossom, her eyes shimmering with moisture.
