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?"

"Are they really boyfriend and girlfriend?"

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!"

She'x acting suspiciously nice, offering uncharacteristic attention for no apparent reason. What is she trying to do?

"There's nothing to tell. Because they were too close, breaching personal space, Dakota took a step to the

side.

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.

Right then, Carmila moved a step closer. "It's such an important matter. Of course you have to tell us."

She pouted as she spoke, pretending to lean toward Dakota.

Darn it, there's a tower of wine glasses next to her.

Beside their seating area, there were two sets of descending steps. On the side, there was a tower of eight layers of wine glasses, and Dakota was standing right at the edge. 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.

All he could do was pray that Dakota could steady herself. However, Dakota was also wearing high heels.
