Chapter 124

She lifted her eyelids slightly, looking at Wilfred with indifference.

“Go ahead, I’m listening. What nice words does Mr. Hayden have to say?”

Wilfred’s expression darkened slightly. “That day at the hotel, why didn’t you explain?”

Josephine looked at Wilfred as if he were crazy, and replied slowly.

“Mr. Hayden, you don’t remember what happened that day? Let me refresh your memory. The moment you walked in, you started hitting Dr. Maynard without a word. When you couldn’t win, you tried to pin the blame on the two of us…

“I didn’t know what was going on that day,” Wilfred defended himself.

“So you want to say, ignorance is innocence?” Josephine sneered.

“Mr. Hayden, I don’t buy that here.”

“The aphrodisiac incense was your doing. Even if nothing happened between Zachery and me, even if something did, the one who is dirty is you. You are the last person qualified to care about this.”

“Besides, that day, didn’t you sleep with Helena? How dare you play the thief crying ‘stop thief and slander me?”

Wilfred was stunned, utterly speechless.

He had been too anxious at the time, lost all reason. Or perhaps, he just cared too much about Josephine…

“Not to mention the past, just talking about what happened at the hotel–your words and actions, and the humiliation and harm caused by the subsequent video–there’s no way I can ever reconcile with you in this lifetime.”

“Whether we divorce or not, from now on, you and I are sworn enemies, Mr. Hayden. Do you understand?”

Wilfred looked at Josephine, momentarily dazed.

She seemed to have changed a lot.

When she looked at him, there was no longer any disgust or anger in her eyes.

It was as if she was looking at a utility pole by the roadside–her gaze was utterly flat.

Her tone when speaking to him was neither cold nor warm, her pace neither fast nor slow.

Even the phrase “sworn enemies,” such a serious term, was spoken calmly.

Wilfred opened his mouth, wanting to say sorry, but it was as if he had lost the ability to speak. He tried several times and failed.

After standing there for a few seconds, he turned and left.

It was only as he turned away that he remembered why he had come to find Josephine.

He had wanted to scold her for flaunting herself in a qipao, attracting lewd men to secretly take photos–did she think it was something to be proud of?

But now, when he couldn’t even say sorry, those words were even more impossible to utter……

After Wilfred left, Josephine stood there for a while.

Patricia came over and asked Josephine, “Are you okay?”

Josephine snapped out of it and smiled. “Do I look like something’s wrong?”

“Not at all… Josie, I feel like the Wilfred of today can’t affect you anymore.”

Josephine examined herself and realized it was true.

She had only felt a tiny bit of sadness just now.

Maybe it was only by truly not caring that she could keep her heart calm…

“Hey, it’s right here, I’m sure of it.”

Two girls were wandering around with their phones, as if searching for something.

“It was right here, a wall of tens of thousands of roses. I even took a photo yesterday.”

The other said, “Did the mall come up with some new idea and take it down?”

“Maybe. Sigh, what a wasted trip.”

Josephine and Patricia also looked around.

They didn’t see any roses; instead, their eyes were drawn to a boutique display of green potted ornaments.

They ended up browsing for most of the day.

They had lunch, watched a movie, had dinner, and didn’t leave TBE Mall until almost eight o’clock.

Patricia didn’t stay with Josephine at Opal Heights that night.

Josephine returned home and put away the things she had bought.
