eading Juicy Gossip in Her Mind

Chapter 214 I Do Not Deserve This

"What just happened? Did I hear incorrectly? Mr. Josiah has been living off her?"

"It should be the other way around, right?"

Due to Josial's lack of response, whispers and discussions began to gradually stir among everyone.

What's going on? All bark and no bite?

Alexander felt that perhaps this was the first time in their relationship that Dakota had treated him in such a manner, which probably had somewhat agitated Josiah.

Dakota gave Josiah a frosty look. Josiah seemed unable to face such an icy gaze. He was momentarily at a

loss for words,

Just then, Camila who had been seething with anger suddenly made her move. She sidled up to Dakota, standing uncomfortably close. "Ms. Meadows, are you Josiah's girlfriend? Why didn't you tell us earlier!"

Josiah suddenly woke up, his gaze fixed intently on Dakota.

Dakota didn't want to cause a scene right there and then. As long as Josiah didn't lose his cool, she preferred to discuss their breakup after exiting the current setting.

Initially, due to Camila's proximity, she was already teetering on the edge of the steps. If she were to be nudged again, she would lose her balance, stumble, and fall. The mere thought of such a scene was simply terrifying.

"Watch out!"

The moment Isabella discovered Camila's plan, she was already too late to stop it from her seat. All she could do was let out a shout.

Even Alexander, who was sitting outside, was at some distance from Dakota.
