What Separates Me and You

Chapter 58 Her Ignorance and Stupidity

“What’s wrong? Do you not want to see Josephine at all?” Seth asked.

Lewis turned to look at Seth, this time with a hint of curiosity.

After that, Lewis let out another chuckle. “I’ll have Conrad text you the address later. Don’t be late.”

“Got it.” Seth nodded in response.

Lewis got up and left his office. The moment he exited the office, the smile was wiped from his face and replaced by a cold look.

He took the elevator to the lobby, where Josephine could be seen sitting on a couch. Her eyes were locked on the ground, but she didn’t seem to be focusing on a spot. Instead, she looked like she was spacing out.

Suddenly, a shadow was cast over her as a pair of shoes entered her view. When Josephine regained her senses, she noticed Lewis standing in front of her.

He was already a tall man, to begin with. Since Josephine was seated, she had to tilt her head upward in order to see his face properly. However, he happened to be standing in front of the light source, so she couldn’t see his expression clearly.

With his hands in his pockets, Lewis looked down at Josephine haughtily. The coat that was draped over his shoulders made him seem taller than ever.

Josephine froze for a moment before standing up hurriedly.

Just like that, she was able to see Lewis‘ features gradually becoming clear once again. He looked cold as usual, but she thought he looked colder than before.

“Let’s go.”

After spitting out those words, he took the lead and walked in front. Josephine trailed behind him quietly the whole time. They entered an elevator and descended all the way to the underground parking lot together.

Lewis had changed his car for the night. It was a black Mercedes–Benz that didn’t catch anyone’s attention at first.

Josephine got into the car and had just finished buckling up her seatbelt when Lewis dropped her a warning all of a sudden. “Don’t provoke Seth.”

She froze for a moment before turning around to stare at Lewis.

His features were shrouded in the shadows, so all she could see was the outline of his side profile. Feeling Josephine’s gaze, Lewis turned to meet her eyes. He added, “Are you listening to me?”

A moment later, she replied with a series of gestures. “Who else should I not come into contact with? Please list them out for me.”

Josephine’s response was willful, and it was impossible for Lewis to not detect that emotion.
