What Separates Me and You

Chapter 297 Nothing Like a Young Woman

A trace of impatience appeared on Lewis’ face. He retorted coldly, “You can go ahead and investigate the incident if you want to know the truth. Even if I tell you anything right now, are you able to guarantee that I’m being truthful to you?”

He was right.

The information which spilled from his lips might not be the absolute truth.

Hence, Seth decided to drop the question. Instead, he asked, “Based on what you just said, can I assume that you already know what happened?”

“The things I know might not be the actual truth as well. That’s why I came to Hardington in the first place.”

“Is it just so you can verify if the truth matches your assumptions?”

“That’s right.”

Seth narrowed his eyes while staring pointedly at Lewis. He looked like he was trying to determine whether the latter was speaking the truth.

A while later, he chose to drop the topic.

He stated, “It doesn’t matter if the truth matches the bits and pieces of knowledge you harbor, Lewis. You still owe her everything at the end of the day.”

Lewis’ gaze hardened immediately. “Mind your own business. Stop meddling in mine and Josephine’s matters.”

Seth couldn’t help but laugh. “What if I intend to stick my nose into them, hmm?”

“Then, I suppose this marks the end of our alliance.”

The other man could care less about their pathetic alliance, so he just shrugged in response.

“Whatever. You and Robert are bound to become mortal enemies with or without our alliance. What does that have to do with me?”

Lewis’ lips curled into a cold smile, but it wasn’t obvious at all. “Did you bring Josephine here?

“If I were the one who brought her here, it’d be impossible for you to track her down.”

Seth paused momentarily before adding, “Besides, is it necessary for me to bring her here? What can she remember at this point?”

For someone who couldn’t remember anything at all, she would never be able to retain the information related to the truth behind the incident. Even if Seth or Lewis were to tell her who

the culprit was, she would never remember anything.

What was the use of having her around?

Lewis turned to glance at Josephine again, noting the daze and confusion in her eyes. She looked like she was still trying to digest the information she had just obtained from their

conversation.

He issued another order. “Come here.”
