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."

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

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."
