Chapter 35 Do You Still Want a Divorce?

Josephine’s heart stopped for a moment. By instinct, she stealthily retrieved the charger from her table and plugged in her phone.

She only needed two minutes to charge her phone, as long as she could turn it on, would be enough.

it

But things didn’t go as planned. Her phone had only been charged for less than a minute when the sound of running water from the bathroom stopped.

She quickly unplugged the charger and ran toward the door.

“Stop right there!”

Before she could exit the bedroom, Josephine was stopped in her tracks. She bit her lip and clutched the charger tightly, too afraid to turn around.

She could hear footsteps approaching her from behind, followed by a light chuckle.

His laugh had an underlying hint of disdain and scorn. Josephine’s face flushed red, feeling embarrassed and ashamed.

“Turn around.”

Josephine clenched her fist tighter around the charger and forced herself to face Lewis. Her gaze met with his sculpted chest. Lewis was naked, fresh from the shower, with a towel wrapped around his waist.

Water was still dripping down his wet hair and defined muscles.

“I thought you were determined to leave? Why did you come back?” Lewis asked mockingly.

Josephine looked up and showed him the charger in her hand.

Lewis’s smile faded slightly, and he continued in an icy tone, “You have some guts. But don’t forget, I bought the phone for you. Who gave you the right to take it?”

Josephine lowered her gaze, gripping the charger.

Without a phone or money, how could she keep this child?

Lewis was obviously cutting her off from receiving any help.

Josephine couldn’t help but begin to doubt whether she could really survive if she

left the mansion.

Last night’s events were still fresh in her mind. Just thinking about it made a chill run down her spine.

Lewis extended his outstretched palm to Josephine, his meaning clear.

Josephine put her hands behind her back, trying to hide the fact that she had her phone and charger.

Her futile attempt made Lewis chuckle again. “Give it to me.”
