What Separates Me and You

Chapter 200 Live-Streamed

Josephine followed the address on her phone, leading her to the restaurant’s second floor, where she discovered a private room. With a closed door before her, she stood outside and stared at the door’s number plate for two minutes before finally summoning the courage to

knock.

A man’s voice came from inside, saying, “Come in.”

Josephine took a deep breath as she pushed open the door and entered. Mr. Walter was different from what she had imagined. He was not a balding and sleazy middle-aged man. He was thin, and his height was around five feet seven inches. He was not particularly good- looking but not ugly either. He wore black-framed glasses and had a slight slouch. Apiary from his skinny figure, nothing else about him made her feel uneasy.

Josephine secretly felt relieved when she saw Mr. Walter’s appearance. As long as she could form this partnership, Lewis would tell her Mrs. Jinkins’ whereabouts. With this in mind, she slowly walked toward Mr. Walter and greeted him with a bow.

“How should I address you, miss?” Mr. Walter smiled and stood up, reaching out his hand in

response.

Josephine gave him an apologetic look and reached out to shake his hand. Mr. Walter furrowed his brows when he did not get a response from her. He asked again, “How may I address you?”

Josephine pressed her lips and remained silent for a few seconds. She pulled out her phone from her pocket and showed it to him. It was written on the screen, “Sorry, Mr. Walter. I can’t speak.”

Mr. Walter shockingly sized her up and said, “You can’t speak? Then how are we supposed to carry out the discussion?”

Josephine felt ashamed and lowered her head, unsure how to broach the topic. The lack of knowledge about the project they were meant to discuss left her at a loss, as Conrad had only provided her with the address. 1

Mr. Walter sized her up again. She was clad in a snugly-wrapped white puffer jacket, and the fur on the hood covered almost half of her face. She was so skinny that wearing thick layers could not hide that fact. Although her size was not to Mr. Walter’s liking, her face radiated beauty. She did not wear any makeup and had a clean-cut appearance. She looked immaculate at first glance, like crystal clear water. Her silent gaze, penetrating and clear, made him feel culpable, as if he had committed a grave transgression. Mr. Walter stared at her face, feeling astonished.

Josephine furrowed her brows, silently questioning him about their next course of action with her eyes. Seeing that he did not respond, Josephine raised her arm and waved it in front of his face.
