When Love Breaks Novel Josephine And Zayne

Chapter 106

Josephine had never noticed the difference in how Joe treated Zayn and Yvan because Yvan had disappeared for three years after she'd married into the Forbes family. But now, it was clear. Joe treated them very differently.

For one, Joe had never spoken to Zayn in such a casual, fatherly manner. Even when she and Zayn visited the Forbes residence together, Joe always ended up chatting with her, while Zayn sat quietly beside them, rarely joining the conversation.

Back then, she had chalked it up to personality differences. But it was obvious. Joe truly did favor one son over the other.

Josephine walked over and placed a box of pastries on the table. She was about to greet Joe when a hand shot out, snatching the box away. Without hesitation, she grabbed the culprit's wrist and said, "These are for Uncle Joe! I waited over an hour in line for these."

With his right hand caught, Yvan used his left hand to pop a pastry into his mouth. "My dad doesn't even like sweets."

"Even if he doesn't, he can still try one!"

Yvan picked up a piece and held it near Joe's mouth. Joe chuckled, waving him off. "Nah, you kids enjoy it. I'm not a fan of sweets."

"See? I told you."
