Josephine heard this statement, thinking it was blatant moral blackmail. She looked at Ivanka and said, "Mrs. Kowalski, if you want my boyfriend and your husband to maintain a working relationship, it's important to separate the company matters from personal issues. Let's keep them separate and not let personal grievances interfere."
Ivanka pointed at the pile of gifts in front of her and said, "I spent over three hundred thousand on these gifts just to apologize to you. Can't you show some understanding and spare my sister?"
Josephine noticed the change in her attitude, from apologizing to blame-shifting. She even suspected that Ivanka and Katrina were colluding, so Ivanka might have played a role in framing her.
"Mrs. Kowalski, I think it would be best if you leave now. Let's avoid escalating things further." Josephine gestured toward the door, indicating her desire for Ivanka to depart.
Ivanka awkwardly picked up the gifts and left. As she walked out, she glanced back at Josephine's office.
Josephine sat down on the couch and picked up her phone to send a message to Ethan. 'What are you up to? Do you miss me?'
'Currently in a meeting, but thinking of you.' Apparently, he was unaware of what had happened to Josephine.
Josephine breathed a sigh of relief. Her pictures had been deleted, and they couldn't be found on the Internet anymore.
'When are you leaving for the Arctic?'
'Afternoon flight. There might not be a good signal once I arrive at the Arctic, so I won't be able to stay in constant contact with you.'
'That's fine! Just occasional communication is enough.' Josephine reassured him.
'After the meeting, I'll video chat with you later.'
'Okay, you go ahead and focus on your work.' She didn't want to disturb him any longer as he surely had a lot of tasks to handle.
She was going to have dinner with her family that night. It took her some time to adjust to not having Ethan around. Oftentimes, she would have trouble falling asleep and would reach out beside her in her dreams, only to find an empty space. It would wake her up, and then she would spend the night flipping through photos, reminiscing about everything that happened between them.
After the bout of intense longing, she would restrain herself as she looked forward to the day they reunited.
