She had just indicated I would be reluctant to leave her exceptional son when it was time to put an end to our relationship.

In spite of being irked by Josephine’s reply, I had to keep my emotions to myself since he was Michael’s mother.

I looked at her in the eyes and asserted, “You don’t have to worry, Mrs. Shaw. I’ll stay away from Michael as soon as he severs ties with me. I’m just a country bumkin, but I’m at least capable of honoring my promises.”

Michael was the only man I had in mind. However, I would stop getting in his way when everything was over. That was the least I could do to protect my little to none dignity.

Josephine was gratified by my promise. She beamed in satisfaction and complimented, “Ms. Garcia, you’re a good woman. I believe you’ll get yourself a better half in the future.”

She started being courteous with me as soon as I promised her to stay away from Michael once everything was over. No way someone from the upper echelon would sincerely compliment a country bumkin.

“Thanks! If there’s nothing else, allow me to excuse myself!”

Throughout the conversation we had, Josephine managed to carry herself in a courteous manner. However, I couldn’t stand being anywhere near her when I recalled she was there to drive me apart from Michael. Unsure of the proper way to carry on with the conversation, I thought it was about time to leave.

Josephine didn’t bother to stop me. When I was about to leave, she repeated herself, “Alright, Ms. Garcia! I hope you’ll honor your promise when the time comes!”

Once again, my eyes flickered. Her reminder had got to me, but I put on a strong front and asserted, “I’ll keep that in mind, but please deal with Michael on my behalf.”

I had brought up countless requests to put an end to our relationship, but Michael wouldn’t hesitate to turn me down. Therefore, it was better to send Josephine to deal with Michael.
