What Separates Me and You

Chapter 263 Josephine’s Getting Married

Robert didn’t plan on explaining to her any further. Instead, he asked her right away, “Are you willing to move back to Alvarez Manor?”

Josephine just stared at Robert unblinkingly. The latter wasn’t joking at all; he had asked her if she was willing to move back to Alvarez Manor with a serious expression on his face.

She didn’t know how to answer him.

Lewis’ expressionless face flashed across her mind at that moment. Then, she remembered. the cold and unfamiliar mansion, causing her to ball up her fists again.

Robert added, “The Alvarez family has provided you with the necessities for so long. I’m not asking you to contribute anything to our family, but now, you have a chance to repay us for all these years.”

Josephine held her breath while waiting for the older man’s explanation.

“I scouted a new husband for you. Why don’t you meet up with him later?”

The woman felt all color draining from her face at that moment. She finally realized the reason why Robert had summoned her to his study. He distracted her with so many topics. before telling her she would be wed to another man.

She opened her mouth, wishing to reject him, but she decided not to respond when she noticed the smile curled on Robert’s lips.

That man might be smiling, but there was still a trace of sternness that would never tolerate. defiance lingering in his eyes. It was his way of telling Josephine that he wasn’t discussing the matter with her. It was just him being courteous enough to inform her of what was about to happen.

Josephine lowered her head while clutching the ends of her sleeves.

Robert continued, “Now that you and Lewis are divorced, everyone will start gossiping if you continue living with him. You need to sever the past marriage from your life cleanly instead of continuing to get involved in your ex-husband’s life. Both of you won’t get any benefits out of doing this. Lewis needs to find a wife who matches his social standing and background, whereas you need to find a good man who deserves you so that you can contribute to the Alvarez family. What do you say, hmm?”

It was just as expected of Robert to say such things. Josephine didn’t think he would be able to maximize the benefits and profits from a mere marriage. Both she and Lewis were to be married off through arranged marriages for Robert’s plan to work. It was a lot more lucrative than allowing her and Lewis to remain together.

Josephine raised her head before gesturing, “Both of us are divorcees.”

“That’s not important. It’s common for people to go through divorces nowadays before. diving into the dating pool again. You must understand that going through an arranged marriage differs from falling in love No one cares if you got married once or twice in the past. What everyone pays attention to is the partner you’re set to marry.”

Josephine didn’t know what else to gesture after hearing Robert’s words. She continued to bow her head quietly without replying to the man.

Of course, Robert decided to make the decision for Josephine. “Alright, it’s decided. From today onward, you’ll be staying in Alvarez Manor There’s no need for you to return to Styx
