What Separates Me and You

Chapter 32 Are You So Eager to Get a Divorce?

Josephine turned to look at Tyler.

After a bout of silence, Tyler spoke up, “I’ll go down first.”

Josephine couldn’t let him go alone, so she quickly followed him and got out of the

car.

When they came up to Lewis’s car, he was smoking in the driver’s seat with his window down.

“Lewis, I’ve sent Josephine home. You…” Before Tyler could finish his sentence, he was cut off by Lewis’s cold and piercing gaze.

Lewis didn’t say anything. He flicked the cigarette ash with his fingers and tossed the butt on the ground. Glaring at Tyler, Lewis opened the car door and got out.

Josephine felt the subtle tension between the two men. She walked up to Lewis and tugged at his sleeve timidly.

Lewis glanced at Josephine, his eyes devoid of any warmth or pity.

“You, go inside.”

Josephine gestured, “It was Tyler who saved me…”

“Josephine!” Lewis interrupted her and sneered, “Since he was the one who saved you, are you going to give him a medal?”

Josephine’s hands froze in mid–air as she saw the contempt in his eyes. She silently lowered her arms.

Tyler spoke up, “Lewis, didn’t you know that Josephine had claustrophobia?”

Lewis’s expression remained stony. He stared at Tyler as his lips curled up into a mocking smile.

“You seem to be very aware of that.”

Stunned, Tyler didn’t know what to say. He sighed. “Okay, I won’t interfere in your family’s affairs. Josephine has just returned from the hospital, so you should know your limits.”

After speaking, he turned around and got back into his car, speeding off.

Tyler had guessed that something like this would happen when he agreed to help Avery out.

It was a gloomy day. At five in the evening, the sky was already dark.

The porch lights of the mansion automatically lit up. Attracted to the light, moths. gathered around the lampshade, looking for a way to get inside.

Josephine stood by Lewis’s side, looking down at her feet.

He stared at her for a moment in silence before entering the mansion.

She followed him without a word until they came to the living room.
