What Separates Me and You

Chapter 264 He Doesn’t Care About Josephine at All

Robert quickly had his staff welcome the man into the mansion.

Josephine turned her head around to look at the man who had just entered. She couldn’t help but look shocked.

Quintin Fowler was actually the one visiting the mansion.

A look of delight appeared on Quintin’s face the moment he saw Josephine. He knew that he had come to the right place.

His friend was originally the one who was supposed to attend the meeting. However, decided to skip it after hearing that the woman he would be meeting was a mute who was adopted by that particular family. That wasn’t even the worst of it; it turns out she had already been married once. Quintin’s friend couldn’t help but complain about the woman, eventually concluding that he didn’t want to meet her at all.

Quintin happened to be around when he overheard his friend’s complaints. Considering the woman was mute and had been adopted by her current family, Josephine was the only person

he could think of who matched those criteria.

Quintin asked his friend who the woman was to ensure he got the right person. However, that friend didn’t know her name. All he knew was that she was a part of the Alvarez family.

Upon hearing the response, Quintin was confident that the woman was Josephine. Hence, he took the initiative to attend the meeting in his friend’s stead. As expected, the woman who was about to be matchmade to his friend happened to be Josephine.

“Hello there, sir. I’m Quintin Fowler. My father is Damian Fowler. You should know who he is, right?”

Robert was surprised after hearing Quintin’s self-introduction. He clearly remembered that the family he had gotten in contact with was the Osborne family. How on earth did it become the Fowler family?

Then again, it wasn’t important. His main purpose was to threaten Lewis, who ultimately showed no concern about the situation. Hence, his only option was to marry Josephine off for

real.

On the other hand, who she would marry wasn’t significant.

Robert eyed Quintin up and down before nodding in response. “I’ve heard of him. Didn’t your father come along?”

Stunned, Quintin quickly forced a smile. “He’s currently on a business trip in another city. My parents aren’t home at the moment, but I have the authority to make the final decision myself.

Robert recalled the bits of information he had heard about the Fowler family. That family built its foundation on top of the entertainment industry, so it had no business affiliations with the Alvarez family. One could say that the families didn’t have a reason to get affiliated with each

other.
