What Separates Me and You

Chapter 174

Chapter 174 You Were Too Rash

Josephine was stunned. Then, she immediately opened the door, hopped in, and put on her

Lewis didn’t say anything as he reversed the car.

The rain had stopped, but the weather was still depressing. Josephine’s hands and feet were icy and numb after being in the hotel all night.

The window was open. The breeze brought along a faint hint of alcohol.

Josephine was worried. Lewis drank alcohol, yet he was driving.

She dared not utter a sound. She glanced at him and looked elsewhere, the breeze slapping against her face.

Josephine slowly inched her finger toward the control and closed the window, keeping the frosty air out.

Lewis looked at her silently, but Josephine could feel the cold air he emitted.

Lewis didn’t reply. He looked away from her and pulled out a cigarette. Then, emotionlessly, he asked, “You’d listen to everyone else except for me, huh?”

Josephine paused. She shook her head and tried to sign, but he wasn’t looking at her.
