Chapter 858 Joseph’s in Grave Danger
“Mr. Joseph isn't dead yet, but how did you hear about this?" “Huh? I read about it online.”
Lucas’ heart sank. He quickly turned on the computer beside him and the headline popped up. The displayed photos were the same as the ones presented by Preston and Jonathan
Lucas felt disgusted. He did not need to think to know that Preston and his son were the ones who had released this information. They wanted everyone to know that Joseph had died so that Jonathan could take over.
"He's not dead?" Emily asked, "Is this just a false rumor spread by the media?”
"It's not the media. It's Preston,” Lucas said as he pinched his brows, "I don't know why he and Jonathan suddenly returned, but someone must've tipped them off. Maybe Mr. Joseph's accident is related to them."
Emily felt a shiver run down her spine. This looks like a trap specifically for Joseph. How's he doing now?"
Lucas sighed heavily, “Not well. Vince went to look for him but has still yet to find him. He's now searching the bottom of the cliff." Emily pressed her lips together and asked, "So why are you looking for Coco?"
"There's something I need to tell her."
"What is it about?"
Lucas hesitated for a while and said, "It's something very important.”
"If you don't tell me. I won't help you,” Emily said. After all, Chloe had been ill lately and Emily did not want to trigger her again Smiling bitterly, Lucas said, "Are you worried that I'll harm Ms. Chloe?”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"It's not that, but if you want my help, I need to know the whole story. Coco’s my best friend, and I just want to protect her." "All right," Lucas said. After some contemplation, he continued, "I just want to tell her about her child."
“Huh? You know where her child is?"
"Yes, Mr. Jasper is Mr. Joseph and Ms. Chloe's kid, but we have to conduct a paternity test to confirm this."
Emily was taken aback. “Is this some kind of joke?"
It had been five years. They thought Chloe's child was somewhere far away, but in reality. he had been right before them the whole time.
Lucas understood her reaction. After all, he towhad been quite shocked when he learned about that. "Car you please contact Ms. Chloe for me?" _ -
Emily thought for a mament and said, "Let me call her.”
"Okay, thank you for your help.”
Emily hung up the phone and glanced I at the time. It was half past one. Chloe should be on her break at the mement, soitwasa good+time for achat. However, Emily could not make up her mind. to“ -
Firstly, Chloe was about to get married tomorrow. Learning this news now might affect the wedding, but the childwas important to Chloe. Added to the fact that = > Joseph'sife hung in the ba anceat the moment, if Chloe wanted te: regain custody of Jasper, Harold would likely oppose it. And‘Desmond

might not necessarily agree to it either. After all, Noah was considered a part of the Sullivans. Divorce and raising a child from a previous marriage was a tricky situation.
Emily leaned over her desk, tangled in her thoughts for a while, and finally decided to make the call.
"Coco, are you busy?”
“Not really. What's up?" Chloe stopped typing on her keyboard and picked up a watering can to water the pink roses that Noah had sent over. "If, and I'm just saying if, if you and Joseph had a child, would you bring that child back to the Sullivan family?"
"I don't know, but most probably.”
It was difficult to let someone else take care of her own flesh and blood, even if that person was the child's biological father.
