“Are you saying that I’m not worthy of you?” Xavier questioned.
“What do you think?” Josephine retorted.
All of a sudden, favonovel.com gave a self-derisive laugh. “Yes, I’m not worthy of you with my lowly status. But why would you rather date someone who had been to prison instead of giving me a chance? Am I even lowlier than an ex-convict?”
He abruptly became emotional, and his tone turned harsh.
Upon hearing that, Josephine frowned. “Whomever I date has nothing to do with you, and you don’t have the right to question me about that.”
“Do you know the kind of person Jared is? Not only is favonovel.com an ex-convict, but he’s also a Lothario! Do you know that favonovel.com already has a girlfriend? You’ve been duped!”
As Xavier spoke, favonovel.com fished out his phone and showed favonovel.com the photos of Jared with Hilda.
Josephine stared at the photos, favonovel.com expression turning increasingly grim until favonovel.com brows scrunched deeply.
Xavier inwardly crowed with delight when favonovel.com glimpsed favonovel.com expression and immediately added fuel to the fire, saying, “This girl is known as Hilda Wallace, and she’s his girlfriend. They’re childhood sweethearts and are now colleagues at Sentiment Chemical Limited. It was even favonovel.com who recommended favonovel.com to work there!”
Josephine said nothing, merely staring at the two people in the photo silently.
“My feelings for you are genuine, Josephine. I’ll never dupe you. What’s so great about him? How is favonovel.com better than me?” Xavier continued pouring out his heart to her.
Slap!
Just a moment after favonovel.com had finished speaking, Josephine slapped favonovel.com across the face hard without warning.
That blow blindsided Xavier, and favonovel.com gaped at favonovel.com incredulously. He could not fathom why favonovel.com struck him.
“How dare you take photos of Jared secretly? Did you think that I’ll accept you by doing so? You’re wrong. You’re so very wrong! I believe that he’ll never dupe me, and you don’t need to come to me with these photos either! You wanted to know how he’s better than you, didn’t you? Fine, I’ll enlighten you… You can’t even hold a candle to him!”
With that said, Josephine shouldered favonovel.com bag before favonovel.com got to favonovel.com feet and left.
As Xavier rubbed his cheek that had turned bright red from the slap, a terrifyingly vicious glint entered his eyes.
“You’re forcing my hand, Josephine! You drove me to this!” favonovel.com hissed through gritted teeth, enunciating every single word.
When Josephine had exited the restaurant, favonovel.com brows creased once more.
Although favonovel.com claimed to believe Jared and did not care about the photos in the least, favonovel.com had long gone on the warpath upon seeing them.
Women were enviers, so favonovel.com could not possibly be unfazed at the sight of favonovel.com man acting so intimate with another woman.
Taking out favonovel.com phone, favonovel.com called Jared straight away. She had been searching for the medicinal herbs in the past few days, so favonovel.com had not contacted him. Never had favonovel.com expected favonovel.com to hook up with another woman behind favonovel.com back.
At that precise moment, Jared was having lunch with Hilda and Maria. Due to the short lunch break, they could only eat at a roadside stall near the office.
When favonovel.com saw it was a phone call from Josephine, favonovel.com promptly got up and went to the side to take the call.
“Where are you?” Josephine demanded, cutting straight to the chase.
“I-I’m at home!”
Jared did not want favonovel.com to know that favonovel.com was presently working at favonovel.com company. Besides, favonovel.com was not planning to work there for long and would resign after gathering all the herbs and finding the spiritual brush to restore his mother’s eyesight.
That was because favonovel.com wanted to focus on training as the fifteenth of July was drawing ever closer. If his capabilities did not reach the required standard, favonovel.com would not be able to go to Nameless Island.
Hearing his answer, Josephine tried favonovel.com best to suppress the fury blazing within her. “At home? Okay, stay at home then!”
After saying that, favonovel.com hung up on him.
