Meanwhile, Josephine was seated at her desk in the office. She was enjoying a cup of coffee while
talking to Wren. The moment Tori stepped into the office, she caught the attention of a group of male
workers. Walking around the office, she searched for a specific person until a namete came into
view. Then, she raised her head and studied the face of the namete’s owner.
She indeed looks pretty. She could’ve be prettier if she paid attention to her appearance.
However, nobody in the TV station can ever steal the spot of thepany’s beauty queen from me!
“Miss Alford, are you looking for someone?” An assistant approached her.
“No, I’m not looking for anyone. I’m just walking. around. Don’t let me keep you. You should return to
work.” At that, Tori cast Josephine onest nce before turning on her heel and leaving.
After dealing with all the tasks at hand, Josephine was eagerly anticipating the arrival of the evening
and meeting with Ethan. She couldn’t wait to see him after getting off work.
This is from N?velDrama.Org.
However, she nned to go home and see her mother as well. I need to tell Mom. Josephine decided
to ask, “Wren, can I bother you for a minute?” “What is it? What can I help you with?”
“I’m calling my mother to tell her that I’m staying at your ce for work purposes over the next week. I
need you to cover up for me.” At the end of her sentence, Josephine was already blushing.
Since Wren also had a boyfriend, she could. understand the reason for Josephine asking for help.
Therefore, she kindly agreed to help Josephine. “Sure. Call her. I’ll cover up for you.”
The pair headed to the pantry before Josephine dialed her mother’s number. “Hello, Joey! Are you
coming home tonight or are you workingte today?”
‘I haven’t finished my work. Mom, here’s the thing-I also need to stay at my colleague’s ce over the
next week. I’ll go hometer and grab a few things before leaving for her ce.
At that moment, Wren took the phone and enthusiastically greeted Heidi, ‘Hello, Mrs.. Jacobson. I’m
Wren. Lately, we are working on summarizing an important work report, so we have to work together.”
“Oh! It’s you, Wren. Thanks for having Joey over. I’m counting on you to take care of her.” Heidi was
instantly convinced by Wren’s words. “Rest assured, Mrs. Jacobson. I’ll take good care of her!” Wren
promised.
Josephine eventually took the phone back. “I have to go, Mom. I’ll go home and pick up some clothes
later.” “I’m not at home at the moment. You don’t need to wait for me.”
“All right, Mom.” After Josephine hung up the phone, Wren couldn’t help but lean in and whisper, “Joey,
did you move in with Mr. Quarles?”
The innocent question sent a blush to Josephine’s face. A few secondster, shel nodded lightly. “I
did.” “That’s so good! You have to be careful with such a boyfriend, though, Wren reminded her..
“How am I supposed to be careful? In my opinion, what’s mine will always belong to me. And if it isn’t
destined to be mine, I can’t bend it. to my will.” Josephine had no idea about how she should react to
what awaited her in the future.
“It’s just that Mr. Quarles has a lot of admirers in ourpany, not to mention that he’s an influential
man. Just be careful, Wren murmured. At that moment, Josephine’s phone rang, cutting their
conversation short. She nced at the screen. “It’s him.”
“You should answer it. I won’t keep you any longer. With that, Wren returned to her work. Josephine
answered the call in a sweet voice, “Hello?”
“I’ll be there in ten minutes. You can get ready now.” Ethan’s maic voice reached her from the other
end of the line. Josephine hummed a response. “All right. See you in ten minutes.” She then went
downstairs to wait for Ethan
after grabbing her belongings. Since she made her rtionship with Ethan public, she saw no point in
worrying about others’ opinions anymore.
Josephine waited for Ethan’s arrival at the intersection. It wasn’t a long wait as the distant roar of the
sports car’s engine grew even louder until the car rolled to a stop in front of her. The window lowered,
revealing Ethan’s face. “Get in the car,” he urged.
Josephine did as she was told and informed him, “I want to go home first. I need to pack a few clothes.”
A glint of surprise shed across Ethan’s fathomless eyes. “Have you decided to move in with me?”
Pursing her red lips in shyness, Josephine nodded. “Yes, I want to get to know you, and have you learn
new things about me too.” Dating was a process to spend time together and get to know each other.
Josephine doubted they could maintain their rtionship without understanding each other.
“I’m d to hear that!’ It was exactly what Ethan had in mind. Ethan then sent Josephine back to her
house. Her mother was currently out with friends. Meanwhile, her father was always on a business trip.
Thus, Josephine spent most of her time with her mother.
