Chapter 1141
Cooper gestured to the server and said to Josephine, “It looks like you're on your way to your room. Which room are you in? I'll ask the server to buy a sweater and deliver it to you.”
Originally, Josephine was about to reject his offer, but the man was the one who initiated a conversation with her. So, after a while of contemplation, she told him her room number.
Cooper passed the glass in his hand to the server before whispering something to the other man. Before he left, he also glanced at Josephine one more time, and that glance made her heart skip a beat.
Why is he looking at me like that?
After Josephine returned to the room, she spotted Sally sitting at the corner of the couch, silently drinking.
Someone asked, “Josie, what happened to your sweater?”
Josephine was wearing a white sweater, so the damp spot on her chest was obvious.
Sally peeked at Josephine and muttered, “Someone knocked into me when I was on my way back, and he spilled some of his whiskey on my sweater.”
Right then, someone knocked on the room door.
A server entered the room. Upon recognizing Josephine, he handed her a shopping bag and said, “Ms. Carter, this is the sweater from our boss, Mr. Sutton, for dirtying your sweater.”
Josephine took the sweater and asked the server in a curious tone, “Wait, Mr. Sutton of Specter Corporation is the owner of this bar?”
“Yes. It has been a long time since Mr. Sutton took over this bar,” the server replied. “Mr. Sutton apologizes for ruining your mood. He said that he'll give you and your friends a treat today.”
Once the server was gone, one of their friends remarked, “What a generous man Mr. Sutton is. I can't believe he's buying you a new sweater and treating all of us today.”
Josephine smiled and took out the sweater from the shopping bag.
One of them then noticed the tag on the sweater. “And it's from Gucci. This sweater costs almost ten thousand. Wow...”
“Isn't Cooper married to Sally?” another abruptly chimed in.
At that, everyone turned to look at Sally.
