Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 176

Chapter 176

“She doesn’t need to give me anything in return. Of course, if she could love me, that would be my greatest blessing. The love I give her doesn’t need to be reciprocated. As long as she’s Josephine, I’ll love her.”

The man’s eyes were dark and bright.

Even under the monotonous, yellowish light, the glow in his eyes remained gentle and warm.

He stood high above, the object of admiration, yet he scorned all fame and fortune, showing only kindness and indulgence to Josephine.

Even Dalton, who loved Claire deeply, felt inferior in comparison.

Dalton nodded again and got down to business.

“The information you asked me to check about Helena’s birth mother was wrong–she’s not dead at all.”

Zachery merely raised his eyebrows. “Mm, find a way to let Josephine know.”

“And then?”

“Then, Josephine can do whatever she wants with it…”

Dalton replied, “Alright,” stood up to leave, and noticed that Zachery had no intention of seeing him out.

He looked back.

He saw that Zachery had changed his phone’s lock screen wallpaper to a photo of himself and Josephine, his thumb–wearing the fingerprint ring–tracing Josephine’s cheek over and over.

Dalton: ”

Who would believe it if he told anyone?

The decisive, awe–inspiring head of Thalassa Group actually had a hopeless case of lovesickness. Terminal, incurable!

On Tuesday, Josephine asked Michael about the fingerprint ring launch event.

Michael said that Mr. Keller still hadn’t set the price.

Josephine went to find Finn to ask about the situation.

As soon as she entered the vice president’s office, Finn greeted her with a kindly smile and waved her over.

“Ms. Copeland, come, come, look at me–I’ve done nothing all morning except shell over ten thousand sunflower seeds.”

Josephine: “…”

This old man actually seemed quite proud of himself.

Josephine smiled and obediently sat down on the sofa, then got to the point:

“Mr. Keller, has headquarters set the price for the fingerprint ring yet?”

Finn popped a sunflower seed into his mouth. “Headquarters said we have full authority to decide.”

Josephine said, “Then could I trouble you to call a meeting with all the department heads to discuss it?”

“No need, no need. Ms. Copeland, you can decide. I don’t know anything about it.

Josephine suddenly felt the weight on her shoulders grow heavier.

She added, “Novo Tech’s basic model of the super watch starts at 3,599. Should we start at 3,999?”

Finn replied indifferently, “Sure, whatever, you decide.”

Josephine let out a couple of dry laughs.

With such a go–with–the–flow boss, there was really nothing she could do.

“Ms. Copeland, don’t just talk–have some sunflower seeds.”

Finn offered the shelled seeds to Josephine.

Josephine noticed that Finn’s hands were stained with ink and the shells had left them a dingy gray

She hesitated and asked, “Mr. Keller, did you wash your hands before shelling the seeds?”

Finn looked confused. “I forgot…”

Josephine left Finn’s office, and her phone rang.

She glanced at it–it was a call from the appraisal agency, and her nerves instantly tensed.

“Ms. Copeland, your appraisal report is ready. Please bring your original ID to collect it as soon as possible.”

After hanging up, Josephine forced herself to control her nervous, uneasy, and conflicted emotions and continued working.

After work, she took a cab straight from the company to the appraisal agency.

When the staff from the appraisal agency handed the results to Josephine, she felt a wave of anxiety at being so close to home and didn’t dare reach out to take them.

She was a little afraid, uncertain, not knowing what result she truly wanted.

Back then, her life had hung by a thread, trapped in the shadow of her parents‘ deaths, unable to extricate herself, with no desire to go on living.
