Chapter 184
Then she stood in a way that made her look perfectly natural.
When the elevator doors opened, Josephine pecked inside–Zachery wasn’t there.
These days, she’d been busy with the launch event and the Singularity V2 technology, leaving early and returning late. It seemed she hadn’t seen Zachery for three or four days.
Human emotions are truly strange.
When you don’t think of someone, you don’t realize how important they are. But when you do think of them and don’t see them, there’s a sense of inexplicable loss in your heart…
Josephine ignored the sudden, unruly sense of loss in her heart.
After finishing her styling, she bought breakfast to eat on the way and headed to EternalCore Fab.
By nine o’clock, members of the media, tech enthusiasts, and the company’s CTO had all arrived one after another.
Josephine hadn’t originally wanted to invite Novo Tech, but Finn said, “This event is meant for Novo Tech to see. We want that Wilfred to feel like a toad has jumped on his foot–disgusting and annoying.”
Josephine: ‘
“1
”
Mr. Keller even scolded himself into the matter, so Josephine and the planning department had no choice but to send an invitation to Novo Tech as well.
When Wilfred and Helena entered, Josephine was in the distance, taking a phone call.
Her black, shoulder–length hair was curled and tucked behind one ear. Her skin, delicate as jade, glowed naturally under the lights.
The suit she wore was light and of high quality, with a tailored waist that perfectly accentuated her figure.
Even standing there from afar, she exuded a natural sense of beauty.
Wilfred gazed at Josephine in a daze, as if there was no room in his eyes for any other sight.

Helena was equally distracted, frequently glancing outside.

She saw a sales assistant from TBE Mall approach, handing a minimalist shopping bag with both hands to an employee from Josephine’s department.
“Ms. Copeland’s line is busy. Please pass this on for her.”
Elowen said, “Alright, is there a balance to pay? I can scan and pay you now.”
“Ms. Copeland paid in full at the time.”
Before turning to leave, the sales assistant craned her neck to take a look inside.
Her gaze met Helena’s, and she nodded before quickly walking away.
Helena first lowered her eyes, then lifted them again to search for Josephine.
Just thinking about Josephine soon making a fool of herself in front of industry elites made it impossible for Helena to hide the smile at the corner of her lips.
What should she do? She was already starting to feel sorry for Josephine…
Still on the phone, Josephine kept her voice low as she spoke to the man on the other end:
“Spend the money as you should… Buy suits and ties, rent luxury cars starting at two million, post gym photos every day, and write captions about being hurt in love but still longing for affection.”
The man on the other end said, “I’ve done everything as you instructed, and set it to be visible for only three days.”
Josephine sensed two intense gazes behind her. She turned and saw that Wilfred and Helena had arrived.
Mr. Keller had said to make them uncomfortable.
So she turned around and, just as she did with other peers, waved warmly and enthusiastically at Wilfred and Helena.
But her voice remained calm and steady as she instructed Gideon on the phone:
“Next, arrange a chance encounter… Tonight I’ll have a few people joke around with Elara, and when she breaks down, you show up… If she wants to add you on WhatsApp, politely decline and wait for the second meeting.”
Josephine hung up and walked over to Helena and Wilfred with a smile.
