Chapter 90 That’s Probably It in This Life

Josephine fell silent for a couple of seconds, then she opened the door and got into the car.

Lewis was next to her. She could clearly sense his gaze on her. It was as if he wanted to cut her to pieces.

Josephine hung her head. She didn’t dare look up at Lewis’s expression.

Fortunately, Lewis said nothing as well.

Conrad also didn’t dare to even make a sound. He did his best to minimize his presence and drove steadily.

The silence in the car was deafening, so much so that Josephine could even hear her own breathing.

The car was driven slowly and steadily in the direction of their home. Josephine watched from the corner of her eyes as the scenery at night moved backward outside the car. As she got closer to home, she started to get nervous.

40 minutes later, the car stopped outside the entrance of the mansion.

Conrad very sensibly got out of the car and left, leaving the couple alone.

Lewis still didn’t say anything.

Josephine bit her lip. She plucked up her courage and turned to steal a glance at him. He was leaning in his seat, completely hidden in the dark. She could only see his silhouette. She

extended her hand in hesitation and tugged at his sleeve.

Only then did Lewis turn his head over, and his line of sight landed on her face.

Josephine hung her head.

Lewis reached out and lifted her face. “What have you guys done in the past three days?”

Josephine’s body stiffened. Her mind could not help but recall all the things that had happened in the past three days. Her head began to hurt again.

Josephine raised her hand and explained to him, “Avery and I didn’t do anything at all. We were kidnapped. That person-”

“I know who he is. What I’m asking is, what have you guys done?” Lewis cut her off.

Josephine’s body shook, and her eyes gradually widened.

He knew? He actually knew. However, for three days, three full days, he didn’t come looking for her at all.

He even asked her what she had done with Seth in the past three days.

She should have been used to it. She should have been used to his disinterest and his indifference. However, what he said still made her heart ache and bleed.
