What Separates Me and You

Chapter 298 How Old Are You

Josephine bowed her head to look at the man before her, a dazed mist shrouding her

eyes.

After Lewis finished sliding her feet into the slippers, he raised his head to look at her.

Their eyes briefly met, and something flashed across his beautiful eyes. It was so fleeting that Josephine almost didn’t notice it in time.

Then, Lewis got up to his feet. In the midst of doing so, he frowned as his form started leaning dangerously to the side. Fortunately, he grabbed hold of the banister just in time to avoid falling to the ground.

Josephine quickly stood up to steady the man. Worry was now etched all over her face.

He hung his head just to catch his breath for a moment. Once he lifted his head again, his expression was emotionless as ever. Still, he raised a hand to pat Josephine on the head.

“I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

Josephine stared at his face for a moment. In the end, she chose to believe his words, so she released her hold on him.

Her phone happened to ring just then.

The

young woman turned around to glance at her phone, which was sitting on the coffee table. She had an inkling that the pink phone belonged to her.

Josephine didn’t hesitate to leave Lewis on the balcony as she headed indoors to answer the call.

When she picked up her phone, she noticed that Quintin was the one calling her. She hesitated for a moment, but she still slid the “answer” button and placed the phone next to her ear.

“I thought you were going to keep ignoring me. Thank goodness you finally answered the call,

Quintin said from the other end of the line. “It’s going to be the holidays soon. Are you planning on visiting somewhere this year?”

Josephine didn’t respond since she was unable to talk, which confused the other man to no end. “Didn’t you learn how to speak back then? Why aren’t you saying anything now?”

The moment his words fell, Josephine felt the phone being snatched from her grasp.

“I can help you out if you feel very lonely, Mr. Quintin.”

The moment Lewis’ voice drifted through the speaker, the other man instantly fell silent.

A few seconds ticked by before Quintin replied, “Are you with her right now?”

“The answer is rather obvious, isn’t it? Why must you ask such ridiculous questions?”

Quintin grumbled loudly, “You’ve already divorced her! Why do you insist on chaining her next to you?”
