What Separates Me and You

Chapter 113 Take the Pills to Avoid Pregnancy

Josephine stood still as she heard Lewis’ words. Josephine suddenly realized what was going on. Lewis hadn’t brought her here out of kindness for her. He simply desired even greater control over her.

Given the exorbitant medical bills, Josephine wondered who could bear such a financial burden. The only person who could afford it was Lewis. She would have to play the part of an obedient pet, bowing to his every command, to get the treatment Mrs. Jinkins needed. She realized she would bear the guilt of Mrs. Jinkins’ death if she did not choose treatment.

He didn’t offer her much of a choice. It was obviously a threat.

Josephine raised her head slowly and glanced at Lewis’ face. He remained calm and composed, in perfect command of everything. How could he not be collected?

She clenched her fists and closed her eyes before nodding. Lewis stretched out and stroked her cheek.

“Alright, we’ll treat her,” he responded indulgently.

Josephine opened her eyes and smiled at him. For a fleeting moment, the radiant lights of the hallway illuminated her reddened eyes, casting a soft glow upon her, making her docile and cute. It was as if everything had returned to its normal state. However, her gaze no longer held that lingering affection when she turned her eyes toward him.

Lewis’ fingertips crept up to the corner of her eye and wiped away the tears. He said, “I will hire a nurse to look after her. Let me know if you want to visit her, and I’ll take you here. Remember this, okay?”

Josephine nodded and gestured, “I understand.”

“Come on, let’s go back.” Lewis withdrew his hand and turned to leave. Josephine silently followed behind him, and soon, they arrived at the parking lot.

Just as they got into the car, Lewis’ phone rang. No one would call him at this hour of the night but Sierra. Lewis pulled out his phone, switched it off, and slipped it back into his pocket. He then shifted his gaze to Josephine.

“Do you think you need to get examined?” he inquired.

Josephine was slightly taken aback. She pursed her lips and shook her head as she gestured, ” No need.”
