“Just deal with the problem as best you can. I can’t go away. What? Is that how you solve a problem?”
Ethan sounded furious. Then, he started speaking in a differentnguage. He still sounded displeased
as though his subordinate had made a huge mistake at work.
Josephine was worried as she listened to him. Did anything happen to hispany? He seems
exasperated. Since she was well-versed in thenguage, she understood that Ethan had been asking
for a solution from the other party, but he couldn’t get a satisfactory answer. When the call ended, he
even spoke in foulnguage.
Josephine had to leave at once, for she didn’t want Ethan to know she eavesdropped on him. She
realized he must’ve spent too much time keeping herpany and ignored his work, which was why
such a mistake happened. Therefore, she decided to let him go back and deal with his work. Although
they would be separated for a while, she was fine with it.
When she returned to her office, she started working on herptop. However, when she recalled how
furious the man looked, she let out a sigh. Does he think I won’t let him leave? Is that why he’s been
neglecting his work and staying by my side?
While she spaced out, a towering figure stepped into the ce. When she turned around and saw the
man, she rose from her chair and asked, “Are you alright?”
Ethan curled his lips. “I’m fine. Am I disturbing you?” “No. Do you have work to attend to, Ethan? You
can go ahead and deal with it,” Josephine said. Ethan was an intelligent man. He realized she must’ve
passed by the corridor and overheard him lecturing his subordinate. “Don’t worry. It’s no big deal.”

“No. Even though I love staying with you, I don’t want to affect your work. We can be separated for a
while,” Josephine said sincerely. Ethan indeed had a problem to solve, but he said calmly, “I don’t have
the heart to leave you.”
Josephine cated him by saying, “It’s fine. We can always hop on a video call. If you miss me, I can
take some time off work and visit you.”
“I’d like to invite your family members to have a meal with my mom in the evening so that they can
meet up,” Ethan said gently. He wanted both parties to meet each other and arrange for the marriage,
“Alright, I’ll contact my parents. I have to call my dad earlier so that he’ll have enough time toe
back.” Josephine was pleased that both parties were finally going to meet.
Then, Josephine called her mother. When Heidi learned about the dinner, she was ted. She had
always been worried that the Quarles Family would look down on her daughter. It wasn’t that she was
diffident, but the Quarles Family’s wealth was beyond her imagination.
“I’ll call your dad. We’re not going to invite your grandpa, though,” Heidi said. Josephine understood her
mother’s concerns. Peter loved alcohol, so she was worried he would drink excessively during dinner.
Given his old age, they had to ensure he would only drink moderately.
“Sure. Let’s meet up with Mrs. Quarles in the evening,” Josephine replied. Meanwhile, Ethan informed
his mother about the dinner. Donna had always wanted to meet the Jacobsons. With Jenna serving as
a bad example, Donna was satisfied with Josephine. The most important qualities of a woman were
kindness and sincerity, after all. Her appearance and background weren’t so important.
Josephine was joyful as well, for her first live stream was sessful. Herpany had arranged a
celebratory dinner party for her, but she turned them down since she had a more important meal to
attend.
Ethan had already booked a ce in a restaurant. He and Josephine waited for their parents’ arrival.
Donna arrived at 6.00PM, followed by the well-dressed Mills and Heidi. When Josephine saw her
mother wearing her most expensive pearl ne, she knew thetter treated the meet-up seriously.
Donna and Heidi greeted each other. Although they came from vastly different family backgrounds, a
sincere and frank smile was the best way to start a conversation.
