Barbecue it is, then. Josephine sent Luke a message, asking him if he was up for some barbecue.


    Luke immediately replied, ‘Sure, I’d like some barbecue too. I’ll be there in 5 minutes.”


    Josephine booked a reservation at the barbecue shop she frequented. Meanwhile, on the street


    outside Josephine’s house, a ck SUV was parked by the road. A certain man, who wasn’t too


    familiar with this area, was looking at the GPS. This was part of the old town area, so the streets were


    more closely woven, making it difficult for one to find one’s way.


    Hence, the man could only get out of his car and ask an older man for instructions. The older man


    pointed ahead. “There’s a park in front. Drive in and you’ll get there.”


    “Thank you.” Ethan smiled, then got into the car and continued driving. At the junction, Luke’s car also


    happened to turn onto the road.


    Josephine stood at the door, waiting with her purse in hand. Soon, she saw Luke’s car heading her


    way. However, she didn’t notice a ck SUV behind Luke’s car.


    After pulling up, Luke got out of the car to open the car door for Josephine. At the same time, Ethan


    was looking at the signs. Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to a figure at the door. In an instant, he


    stepped on the brakes, sparks flying out of the tires as the car stopped and jerked forward a little.


    The car stopped right at the door of Luke’s car, and Luke had just opened the door for Josephine.


    Startled, Josephine held onto the car window as she looked at the car beside them. Just then, the


    window of the SUV rolled down. A handsome face with sunsses came into view.


    It was none other than Ethan. Josephine waspletely stunned. He took off his. sunsses, his deep


    amber eyes staring at them. He finally knew why he was rejected.


    This woman is going on a date with Luke. Ethan was greatly offended by what he saw, and Josephine’s


    mind turned nk for a few seconds. She never thought that Ethan would show up at her doorstep,


    even witnessing her getting into Luke’s car. How awkward.


    “Quarles, what are you doing here? Joey promised to have dinner with me tonight. Go back to where


    you came from,” Luke said rudely. Ethan narrowed his eyes at Luke, then looked at Josephine. “Do you


    mind the three of us having dinner together?”


    “I do mind, Luke retorted. Josephine also thought this wasn’t a good idea. Luke didn’t like Ethan, and


    Ethan didn’t seem too fond of Luke either. If they had a meal together, what would she do if they started


    a fight?


    “I’m treating Luke to a meal tonight, so I’ll treat you to another meal next time, Mr. Quarles,” Josephine


    said, smiling. Then, she got into Luke’s car.


    Luke’s car immediately made a U-turn, but the SUV behind it made a U-turn as well. As Luke drove, he


    stared at the SUV, following closely behind them. Fuming, he said, “Why does this guy keep following


    us?”


    Josephine couldn’t help but take a look in the rearview mirror. Ethan’s car kept tailing them, and even


    when Luke rounded the corner, Ethan followed suit. What is he trying to do?


    ‘Maybe he’s going the same way as us,” Josephine said to Luke. The barbecue shop was nearby, so


    with Josephine’s guidance, Luke arrived at the entrance right away. Luke had just parked the car when


    the ck SUV menacingly pulled up in the empty parking space next to them.


    Josephine saw that as well, and she was stunned for a few seconds. Does he want to have dinner here


    as well? Seeing the tall figure getting out of the driver’s seat, Josephine couldn’t help but go up to him


    and ask, ‘Mr. Quarles, are you having dinner here as well?”


    “Yes. I don’t really know where to have dinner. Am I bothering you?” Ethan raised an eyebrow as he


    asked. “Um, of course not. Josephine smiled awkwardly. Meanwhile, fearing that Ethan would snatch


    Josephine away, Luke reached out and grabbed Josephine’s hand. “Joey, let’s go in!”


    Josephine was pulled away by Luke’s force, but she turned and nced at Ethan behind her. She


    actually hoped that Ethan would go to another restaurant. With his identity, the barbecue might not be


    his jam.


    Can he stand the heat? The food here is known for its spices! Unexpectedly, there were quite a lot of


    customers at the barbecue shop. Luke and Josephine went over to the table they had. reserved, and


    Josephine couldn’t help looking at Ethan. The waiter led Ethan to a table right next to theirs, and his


    seat was across Josephine’s.Original from N?velDrama.Org.
