Chapter 9

When Nadine appeared, a trace of panic flashed across Zayn's face.

He signaled Shawn with his eyes. Shawn quickly went over to take the phone from Nadine and firmly closed the door, leaving her outside.

Shawn handed the phone to Zayn and explained to Josephine, "Mr. Forbes left his phone at the office, so I asked Ms. Sommers to bring it over." "I see."

Josephine suddenly felt exhausted.

She had never been good at dealing with hypocritical people, especially when it came to familiar hypocrites.

"Zayn, if there's nothing else. I'll leave now."

"Josephine."

Zayn grabbed her wrist, his voice gentle.

"Don't overthink things. You know better than anyone how I feel about you."

He took long strides to the desk, picked up the desserts, and stuffed it into her hands.

"I bought these especially for you. Take them home and eat them. I'll finish work early tonight and come home to keep you company. Be good, alright?"

He leaned down to kiss her, but she dodged him.

"The box of sandwiches was supposed to contain eight pieces, but there were only five left."

The air turned silent for a moment. Zayn sighed softly, "Josephine, are you still mad at me?"

Josephine smiled faintly. "I'm not mad anymore."

Hearing this, Zayn let out a long breath and gently stroked her hair. "I knew it, you've always been so understanding. Marrying you is the best decision I have ever made." He turned to Shawn. "Take her home."

"Yes."

Josephine didn't refuse and followed Shawn downstairs.

She didn't say a word along the way. Shawn was also feeling guilty so he decided to remain silent.

When they reached the parking lot entrance, Shawn was about to walk further in but Josephine stopped in her tracks.
