Josephine decided that she would stop asking. for trouble. She would focus on her
goals at work and see if she could become a news anchor before she turned 27. She
couldn’t be a reporter forever!
Josephine continued in the direction she had planned for her life. Anything getting in
the way of her progress could be abandoned. She wanted to focus on money and her
career. “Joey, come down! Luke is leaving.” Heidi knocked on the door, calling out.
Josephine opened the door. Luke had helped them out a lot, so she should see him
off at least. When Josephine arrived at the hall, she saw him standing there. ‘Luke,
thank you so much for your help throughout the trip. I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”
“Next time? Why not tonight? I’ll book a restaurant.” He didn’t want to miss the
opportunity. When Heidi heard that, she chimed, “Yes, let’s do it tonight! Joey, you’re
always so busy with work, so who knows when you’ll have the time.”
Heidi was quite satisfied with Luke. After all, she knew his background well, and his
grandfather was good friends with Josephine’s grandfather too. Heidi would be
satisfied if her daughter could get married to Luke.
Josephine thought it made sense. She would have to start working soon, and she
might get so busy that she wouldn’t even have time to eat. “All right, tonight, then. My
treat,” said Josephine.
“Okay, I’ll be here by 5.00PM,” Luke replied. Josephine smiled. “Sure.” After seeing
Luke off, Josephine was about to leave when Heidi called out to her from the couch.
“Joey, come take a seat. I have something to say to you.” Josephine had no choice
but to sit next to her mother. She then grabbed an orange to peel and eat. “Tell me,
what’s your relationship with Mr. Quarles? Why did he come over to pick you up too?”
“I don’t know either.” “Where is he from? What’s his address? He looks like he’s of
mixed heritage, so is he a foreigner?” Heidi had quite a keen eye, “Probably. He’s
probably not from around here. Oh, he probably isn’t local too,” suggested Josephine.
When Heidi heard that, she sighed and said, “He’s handsome, and very rich as well.
However, we’re just commoners, and we just want to live our lives in peace. So, I think
Luke is a decent choice. He suits you.”
