"You know what, you're right-I do belong here," Alex said, locking eyes with Florence." Anything else you need?"

Florence's lips twisted into a sneer. “In case that thick skull of yours hasn't figured it out, I'm insulting you, you worthless drifter."

"It's a free country, ma'am. You're welcome to say whatever you like." Alex shrugged lightly. " Doesn't mean I have to take offense."

"You pitiful excuse for a man," she spat. "Do you really think ignoring me keeps your dignity intact?"

"In my view, you're poorer than I am. Why should I feel insulted by someone who's not worth my time?"

"You're shameless," Florence hissed. "I wish you'd just disappear!"

His smile turned icy. "And I wish you a long life-to savor your bitterness even longer."

Florence's face flushed crimson.

Florence smirked, thinking she'd gained the upper hand. "He's been nothing but disrespectful. I demand you handle this!"

Josephine sighed, a sly grin tugging at the corner of her mouth. "Oh, Alex, you're supposed to deal with this like so."

She grabbed a plate of fried rice and, without hesitation, dumped it onto Florence's expensive dress.

Florence gasped and stood, outrage twisting her features. "How dare you!"

Unfazed, Josephine grabbed a glass of water from a table and splashed it in Florence's face.

"Consider yourself warned. Now get out."
