Chapter 234

An apology riddle?

Ethan wanted to maintain his cold demeanor, but when he heard that, he couldn't hold back his smile.

Her apology was filled with sincerity.

When he noticed the signature at the bottom, his mood improved. She had actually just commissioned the piece, rather than purchasing something ready- made.

With this level of sincerity, even if she had done something wrong, he would've forgiven her.

"Thank you. This gift is really special. I really like it."

She must have done something unusual, like owing a huge favor, to get a master calligrapher to write something like this.

Either way, he was satisfied and surprised.

"I'm glad you like it."

Josephine let out a breath of relief. "So, does this mean you forgive me?"

How should he put this?

Ethan wanted to laugh, but he held it in.
