Chapter 248 Don’t Look At Me Like That

Josephine pursed her lips while scanning Lewis’ face quietly. A long time later, she finally bowed her head, no longer wishing to look at him.

The latter tried to touch her once again, but she avoided his hand by tilting her body sideways.

Suddenly, the atmosphere went silent.

The corridor was so silent that one would have thought they were in a graveyard.

Lewis took a deep breath before calling her name softly. “Josie.”

Josephine was slightly startled upon hearing her name. She slowly raised her head to look at the familiar yet unfamiliar face belonging to the man in front of her.

He asked once again, “Do you know who I am?”

Josephine’s eyes glinted before she shook her head slowly.

After that, she quickly clambered to her feet in a state of panic before stumbling her way into her room. There, she was able to locate her phone, which was placed on a nightstand.

Josephine quickly snatched it up before she started scrolling through her contact list. Once she found Lewis’ phone number, she called it right away.

When the call went through, she heard a loud ringtone blaring from behind her.

Josephine turned around stiffly, soon noticing the same man standing behind her. The source. of the ringtone came from his chest.

It was all a coincidence. It had to be.

The woman killed the call, resulting in the ringtone disappearing after a moment.

Josephine’s hand, which clutched the phone, started trembling lightly. Her complexion went pale, but she decided to call the number again.

The phone tucked away in Lewis’ breast pocket started ringing almost immediately.

Josephine could only stare at him in shock. She watched as he fished out his phone from his pocket and showed her the screen.

The name “Josie” was displayed on the caller ID.

Josephine could only sink onto the bed, feeling drained and weary. She looked up at Lewis, who seemed very unfamiliar to her. Even the way he looked at her was unfamiliar.

A while later, the woman finally gestured, “Why did you take his phone?”

Countless emotions continued to swirl in Lewis’ eyes as he stared at Josephine unblinkingly. A

while later, he finally replied, “I am him.”

Of course, Josephine refused to believe his words. She tapped open her private chat with Lewis on Whatsapp and started a video call on the spot.

As a result, another loud ringtone sounded from the phone that was clutched in Lewis’ hand.

Josephine could feel her heart sinking in horror. She ended the video call immediately before throwing her phone away.

She refused to believe that the man in front of her was actually Lewis Alvarez.

Lewis didn’t look like that man at all.
