After a moment of surprise, she felt a bit tempted.
But Shane and Bianca didn’t want her to show herself in public.
Staying at home, always waiting for Bianca’s summons like a servant, she was already sick of it.
Accompanying Bianca shopping, dressing her up, arranging flowers, making tea… she didn’t even know what the point of all that was.
After struggling internally, Patricia asked Zachery for his friend’s phone number.
When Josephine looked back, she saw the two of them holding their phones, as if exchanging WhatsApp contacts…
Patricia noticed Zachery’s WhatsApp name: 1107.
She wanted to ask what it meant, but didn’t have the nerve.
She thought Zachery liked Josie; the matching couple watches were proof enough.
But 1107 didn’t seem to have anything to do with Josie…
The four of them walked into the restaurant together.
Led by the waiter, they went to the table that had been reserved in advance.
The first–floor hall of Orchid Restaurant was cleverly designed.
Slanted partition walls separated each table.
This greatly increased privacy.
Only a gap of less than five centimeters was left between them.
As Josephine sat down, she heard a familiar male voice from the next table: “Ms. Flynn, please order first.‘
She frowned slightly.
That suppressed, cold voice sounded just like her ex–husband.

Josephine peered through the gap and saw Wilfred talking with a young woman.
The woman was dressed to the nines, clearly having put a lot of thought into this date.
Wilfred was wearing a full three–piece suit.

At the moment, he had taken off his jacket and was in a crisply ironed shirt and vest, looking every bit the impeccably dressed gentleman.
When Patricia handed the menu to Josephine, she called out, Josic.
Josephine saw Wilfred’s shoulders tense up as he suddenly turned his head to look toward the
gap.
As Wilfred turned, Josephine turned her face toward Patricia.
She accepted the menu with a calm expression, pulling up the corners of her mouth and saying:
“Order whatever you like, don’t worry about saving money for me.”
Zachery’s gaze lingered on Josephine, always subtle yet exceptionally sharp.
It was as if he could see through every little detail.
When Josephine was observing the neighboring table through the gap, he took the opportunity to observe as well.
From his angle, he could only see a man’s hand as he handed over the menu.
The fingers were long and fair, clearly belonging to a pampered young gentleman.
Who else could it be but Wilfred!
Patricia reached out and pinched Natalia’s little cheek: “Did you hear that, Natalia? Don’t try to save your godmother any money.”
She then looked at Josephine, smiling gently, and said, “I’ll drive us back later, so you and Dr. Maynard can have a drink.”
Josephine couldn’t hold her liquor well, but she liked to drink a little whether she was in a good mood or a bad one.
Patricia knew her well, which was why she said that.
Josephine looked at Zachery and said, “Maybe we shouldn’t drink today. Dr. Maynard just had some yesterday.”

Zachery couldn’t very well admit that he had only been pretending to drink yesterday.

He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, “I’ll drink with you. It won’t get anyone drunk.‘
Josephine: ”
Was he underestimating her?
She retorted, refusing to admit defeat: “I’ve built up my tolerance. If you don’t believe me, let’s test it today.”
“I’ll risk my life to keep you company.
“Don’t regret this decision.”
The man’s indulgent tone and the woman’s forceful retort, when heard by Wilfred at the next table, sounded like sweet banter between lovers.
He picked up the lemon water on the table and took a sip.
Josephine’s outfit today echoed in his mind.
