What Separates Me and You

Chapter 199 Aloofness

There was a long silence in the room. Lewis eventually put down his arm and made way for her to leave. He said, “Don’t simply enter this room without my permission next time.”

Josephine squeezed her fingers and nodded lightly. She then turned sideways and walked past him, leaving the office room. As she was leaving the company, she ran into Conrad. Conrad’s face lit up, and he said, “Ma… Miss Vance, you came. You came just in time. Please give me your bank card for a moment. We’re paying wages soon.”

Josephine was startled. She looked up at Conrad in surprise. She never thought that she would get paid.

Conrad read her thoughts and laughingly said, “Did you think you wouldn’t get paid? You have a working pass. If we don’t pay you a salary, we won’t be able to pass the tax assessment.”

Josephine then realized this was the reason. She felt her pockets but did not have the bank card

with her.

Conrad said, “If you did not bring it, the card number would suffice. You can give me the number, and I’ll help you register. The wages will be paid tomorrow.”

With that being said, Conrad paused for a moment before he continued, “You probably need money now as well, right?”

What he said was on point. Josephine left with a clean slate after her divorce from Lewis, so she naturally needed money. At the moment, she was staying at Dr. Halliday’s house. However, she did not want to stay there for free and wanted to pay rent. She would also need money after she finds Mrs. Jinkins. She could no longer take her job as a pastime activity like she did before. She needed to start working for survival. With this in mind, Josephine pulled out her phone. She found her bank card number and sent it to Conrad.

“Okay, I’ll help you register later,” Conrad said.

Josephine grabbed him when he wanted to leave, and she typed, “Can I continue to come to

When she came to her old office, her workstation had been taken by another young and pretty girl.
