Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 1348

Chapter 1348 Yosef Helped a Stranger 

Both men stepped onto the podium and received their prize money. 

Yosef kept staring at the other man, his lips curled slightly, but he refrained from saying anything. 

Emmanuel knew that Yosef was perceptive. Afraid of being exposed, he had avoided any interaction with Yosef, although he wondered why Yosef left the old godfather and came to Nuthana for such a competition. He’s different from the man I used to remember. 

“You’re amazing, Yosef! Can I have your autograph?” 

“Is your goal the title of Martial Arts Champion?” 

“Are you representing any faction? Which faction would you rather serve?” 

“You’re so handsome, Yosef!” 

After the award ceremony, Yosef walked off the stage only to get surrounded immediately by the crowd. His elegant yet distant temperament captivated them. Moreover, he was a Wanderer. Therefore, his background intrigued the audience even more. 

However, he remained silent, not mingling with anyone, and instead left without a word. 

“He’s so cool!” A few women clasped their hands together, smiling dreamily. A cool guy like him is my cup of tea. After all, he isn’t trying to act cool on purpose. He’s a natural. 

Only after Yosef left the scene did Emmanuel sigh softly. I thought it was just a tournament, but things are getting complicated. 

In stark contrast to the bustling and lively arena, Onza’s south district was particularly quiet late at night. 

Yosef enjoyed the quiet. 

He bought some snacks and traversed the quiet street alone. After walking for a long time, the first faint streaks of dawn beamed from the sky. 

Morning always arrived faster in the early summer. 

In the streets near the village, a thin layer of dew covered the plants by the roadside. 

He felt a sense of familiarity. Back when he was in Hero’s Village, he had the habit of collecting dew in the early 

morning. 

“Queenie. I collected the sweet dew from the flower petals. Do you want to try it?” Memories from the past flooded his mind. 

He had a crush on Queenie for years, but he never confessed. But now, he had forever lost the chance to confess. 

She had always loved another man. Her love was never for him. 

He couldn’t help but smile bitterly at the thought. Why am I here? 

He collected the dew out of habit. Hmm… City dew probably isn’t good for quenching someone’s thirst, right? 

“Meow.” At that moment, a stray cat stopped him in his tracks. It looked up at the food and water in his hands.

“Are you hungry? Here, have some.” Yosef handed the food and the water to the stray cat. He watched it tenderly, completely different from when he was fighting earlier. 

“You should go home, Grandpa! I can handle this alone.” 

“No, I can’t. You’re so young. I’m worried about you.” 

“Hey, society is ruled by law these days. Besides, nobody would try to kidnap me. Rest assured. You shouldn’t be walking around considering your age.” 

At the other end of the street, a conversation between an old man and a young girl in plain clothes caught Yosef’s attention. 

“No! It’s my job to earn money. You need to study hard and get into college.” 

His words touched his granddaughter, making tears well up inside her eyes.
