“I’m not drunk, Mr. Kowalski. I’m still clear in my head!” replied Josephine. She didn’t think she was
drunk. Other than feeling wobbly, she felt amazing.
When Katrina heard Atticus’ words, she stood up unwillingly. However, as soon as she realized she
could take Josephine’s ce and sit beside Ethan, she was happy again. Thus, she walked toward
Josephine and said, “Let’s get some rest, Josephine. Come on!”
However, Josephine knew what Katrina had in mind. She curved her lips and wiggled her index finger
toward Katrina. “I’m not going, Katrina. I want to stay here and apany Mr. Quarles!”
Ethan’s eyes widened when he heard her words. I never expected her to be so clingy, he thought.
“You’re drunk, Josephine. I think it’s best if you get some rest!” Katrina said while secretly gritting her
teeth. Josephine must have wanted to seduce Mr. Quarles while drunk. I won’t let this happen.
Josephine was persistent and sat on her spot. “I’m not drunk. I still haven’t eaten yet, and I’m hungry!
No one is going to make me leave!” Atticus didn’t expect Josephine would act in such a way when she
was drunk. If we don’t get her out of here any sooner, she will make a fool of herself, he thought.
Suddenly, Ethan couldn’t help but chuckle. Then, he looked at Katrina and said, “I’ll take her to rest.”
Katrina was shocked and quickly waved him off. “There’s no need for that, Mr. Quarles. I’ll take her
away immediately.” Then, she used all her might to pull Josephine upwards. When Josephine was
dragged away from her seat, an arm wrapped around her gently, pushing Katrina away.
“I’ll send her home. Enjoy your meal,” said Ethan. Without waiting for the others to respond, he took
Josephine out of the room. However, Josephine was going against him. “Let go of me, Ethan. I’m not
leaving with you!”
The others were frightened and thought, Josephine is too hot-tempered! How can she be so impudent
when he is our boss?! “Listen to Mr. Quarles, Josephine!” Atticus quickly reminded her. However, he
could still hear her struggling. “Let go of me, Ethan.”
“Behave now.” Ethan cooed at her. When the others heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief, knowing
that Ethan wouldn’t be mad no matter how Josephine acted. After some time, they could vaguely hear
Josephine’s voice again. “I’m not going to listen to you.”
Katrina was seeing red. She sat on Josephine’s seat, thinking, Josephine is so disrespectful to him…
On second thought, I’m going to let her be! It’s best if Ethan has had enough of her petty behavior.
On the other hand, Josephine was being dragged into Ethan’s car. As she sat on the passenger seat,
her mind was dizzy, and she felt light-headed. “I’m dizzy, Ethan,” she slurred.
“Do you want to go home? Or should I take you somewhere else to sober up?” As Ethan spoke, he
leaned toward her and stared at her.
“Do you have a ce to let me sober up? I can’t go home like this. My mom will scold me.” Josephine
remembered her mother getting upset when she got home drunk thest time. After all, she came from
a strict family. Thus, it was a no-no to get drunk.
“Come with me then,” replied Ethan as he started his car. After ten minutes, they arrived at a hotel’s
underground parking lot where Ethan stayed in. During the ride, Josephine’s eyes were half-closed.
When she opened them, she didn’t know where they were.
“Where are we?” she asked. Ethan opened the car door for her and said, “Come on!”
Josephine trusted him very much and obliged. However, as soon as her feet touched the ground, her
knees weakened, and she quickly hugged Ethan. In that split second, Ethan’s arms wrapped around
her waist, and he looked at her. When Josephine raised her head, their faces were just inches apart. At
that moment, Josephine felt her heart skip a beat. How is he so charming? Does he have to be this
good- looking?Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
