What Separates Me and You

Chapter 180 Coward

She struggled to maintain a smile on her face as she spoke into the microphone. “Considering that he’s right by my side,” she began, her voice carefully measured, “I believe there’s not need for me to elaborate on our relationship any further, correct? It’s simply his nature. He isn’t fond of such events and prefers to keep his personal life from the public eye. That’s why he rarely grants interviews. Therefore, I kindly request that you refrain from inquiring about the nature of my relationship with Lewis. All I can say is if we truly had the kind of scandalous relationship that everyone is betting their dollar on, he wouldn’t be standing here with me.”

Through those words, she made it clear to the reporters and the viewers at home that Lewis had willingly shown up at the press conference. Despite the exact nature of their relationship, his presence there served as a concrete testament to the value he placed on her.

At the very least, it indicated that her status in his heart was unshakable.

Based on his attitude toward the reporters just now, everyone could tell that he was unwilling to attend the press conference. But he came nonetheless. So, what did that insinuate?

Josephine turned her head to glance at him, her gaze flickering for a moment before she silently lowered her head. What could she feel? She felt nothing.

Seth clicked his tongue and twirled a strand of Josephine’s hair that was sitting on her shoulder. Then, he teasingly said, “You can’t bear to leave even now. You’re even more

pathetic than I imagined.”

Josephine was slightly taken aback. She bit her lip and didn’t retort.

Seth’s finger moved to her chin. Turning her face toward him, he scrutinized her expression with a sharp and intense gaze. “Josephine, come with me. What do you think of me taking you away from here?”

Josephine turned her head away, but he swiftly turned it back to face him.

“What are you afraid of? Are you afraid I’ll hit you?” He even found it amusing as he said it
