My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 2121

Chapter 2121

Josephine hadn’t accepted even one gift that Luke gave her throughout the time he pursued her, and neither did she ever give any suggestive remarks. Luke had been one-sidedly pursuing her all this while.

“Although Josephine and I have only known each other for a few days, my love for her is no less than yours. You should back off!” Ethan warned Luke.

“Why should I?” Luke immediately blew his top. He was still reluctant to give up on Josephine and her grandfather’s connections. He couldn’t just let go, considering how his company needed those connections to build up its network.

This happened to be something about Luke that Ethan had seen through. “It seems to me you’re not in love with Josephine. You have your eyes on her grandfather’s authority and connections, huh? Someone like you does not deserve to love Josephine.”

Luke was completely triggered by Ethan’s words. He suddenly roared, “Ethan Quarles, this is my territory. You’d better not mess with me, or I will make life a living hell for you!”

Josephine was taken aback by how Luke suddenly threatened Ethan, and she quickly tried to persuade Luke to calm down. “How am I supposed to stay calm? I’ve been pursuing you for a year, and now someone else got in the way and took you away from me! Do look like a pushover?!” I need to teach him a lesson! he thought.

Seeing how agitated Luke was, Josephine took a deep breath and insisted, “Luke, it doesn’t matter who came first. I was the one who fell for Ethan and actively pursued him. It has nothing to do with him.”

Josephine’s words seemed to have stabbed Luke right where it hurt. It felt like he had lost his sanity at this very moment as his dignity as a man was trampled on. No matter what, he knew he needed to vent his anger toward Ethan. His fists were already clenched as he stared at Josephine with an unwilling gaze. “Josephine, do you really like him that much?”

“Josephine, I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to do that. I wasn’t trying to hit you.” Luke finally realized that he and Josephine couldn’t even be friends after his punch.

She glanced back at him. “Luke, I know you didn’t hit me on purpose. I willingly took the punch on his behalf.” Ethan’s eyes narrowed when he heard that.

“Don’t ever do something so stupid again,” he grunted as he held her close. His heart ached for her. Josephine tried to put on a smile, but the movement tugged on her injury, making her hiss in pain.

“Alright, stop talking. I’ll take you to the hospital.” Ethan helped her out of the private room after saying that. Luke was left to blame himself. He truly did love Josephine, but he no longer had the right to seek her hand.
