Yet, in the contract Ethan just signed, hemitted a total of 725 million to the project. After seeing
Ethan off, Atticus instantly breathed a sigh of relief as his struggling TV station finally received a new
lease on life. Moreover, the projects that he had put on hold now had the funds to get started. He could
finally showcase his abilities. He called his assistant over. “Call Josephine over. I want to talk to her.”
When Josephine received the call from Atticus’ assistant, she was a little puzzled. Why did Mr.
Kowalski suddenly want to talk to me? With a lot of questions in her mind, she went up to the director’s
office. As soon as she entered, she saw the usually serious Atticus smiling at her and greeting her, “Hi,
Josephine! Come on in.”
“Is there something you need from me, Mr. Kowalski?” “Have a sit. There’s something I want to talk to
you about.” Atticus pointed to the couch and sat himself down as well. He looked like he had be
ten years younger, and even the bald spot in the middle of his head seemed livelier. After she sat
down, she couldn’t help feeling nervous. “What is it, Mr. Kowalski?”
“Well, Josephine, can you first tell me what kind of rtionship you have with Mr. Quarles?” At once,
she became speechless. Why is everyone asking me this question today? Even Mr. Kowalski? What
kind of rtionship could I have with Ethan? Aren’t we just acquaintances? “We’re just acquaintances.”
She smiled.
“Mr. Quarles is pursuing you, isn’t he?” Hearing that, her face flushed, and she quickly waved her hand.
“No, no. There’s nothing like that.”
However, Atticus looked at Josephine very seriously and said, “Tell me the truth, Josephine. Are you
two dating? This is very important.” Her heart skipped a beat, and then she told the truth, “We’re really
not. We’re just friends who have had a meal or two together.”
“So, Mr. Quarles is pursuing you then!” “I…I’m not sure about that.” She didn’t dare simply answer this
question. If the answer was no, she would only embarrass herself.
At this moment, Atticus scrutinized her face with sharp eyes. In his eyes, she was a pretty and
energetic young girl, and it was not surprising that Ethan would pursue her. Josephine was getting
ufortable being scrutinized by him, so she forced a smile and asked, “Mr. Kowalski, is Mr. Quarles
your guest?”
“Aren’t you guys close? You should know what he’s here for.” He didn’t answer her directly. When she
heard his reply, she chuckled awkwardly. “I was just asking.” “Get off work at 3.00PMter. Go home
early and dress yourself up. I have a social engagement for you tonight.”
At once, her brain went nk for a few seconds. What kind of social engagement requires me to dress
up? I’m just a small reporter. I don’t think I need to be there even if there is an important social
engagement. After all, ourpany has several well-known female anchors with good looks and
figures!
“Or… you don’t have to go home. Instead, go to the dress shop next door. I’ll call them and ask them to
dress you up.” “I don’t think that’s necessary, Mr. Kowalski.”
“It is necessary, absolutely necessary. You can go now.” After saying that, Atticus waved his hand to
dismiss her. Perturbed, she left the office, still unable to understand why she was being asked to attend
a social engagement.
Shortly after she left the office, Katrina came in and asked directly, “Atticus, who was that handsome
man in the conference room with you just now?” After a chuckle, he asked, “Why? You’re interested in
him?”
“I’m already at that age to marry, Atticus. Ivanka keeps asking you to introduce me to someone. Can’t
you introduce that handsome man to me?” she said with a hopeful face.
Atticus looked at his sister-inw’s face, which was quite pretty, but someone as wealthy as Ethan was
out of her league. “It’s not that I don’t want to introduce him to you, Kat, but the gap between your
status and that of Mr. Quarles is too great.”

“Don’t underestimate me, Atticus. Just introduce him to me.” She persisted. “Alright, here’s what I can
do. We have a banquet among the high-level executives tonight, and Mr. Quarles will be there too. You
cane along. That’s the most I can do. To capture his heart, you’ll have to show him what you’ve
got.”
