Josephine wanted to go back and get some rest, but when she recalled that she could move out of her house by staying at the party long enough, she decided to hold on.
She then sat among Luke’s friends. They had heard about Luke pursuing Josephine romantically, so they treated her politely. Also, they were aware that the woman had an influential grandfather, so they didn’t dare underestimate her.
“Joey, I heard there will be fireworks later. Why don’t we watch it together?” Luke thought that if he could stay by her side during such a romantic moment, they would create wonderful memories together.
Josephine responded with a smile and looked around. Inadvertently, she caught sight of a man who was seated at the farthest table. He was none other than Ethan.
He sat there on his own amidst the boisterous crowd. It was as though he was shrouded in a sense of loneliness. Coupled with the bonfire in the distance, he looked rather pitiful. Josephine frowned and thought that she might have crossed the line by slapping the man.
However, when she turned her head to look at him several minutes later, she realized the man was already surrounded by women. He’s a playboy, after all. I shouldn’t have taken pity on him!
When Luke realized that Josephine was looking in Ethan’s direction, he felt dejected. What’s going on? Does she fancy that man?
There was no doubt that Ethan was significantly more handsome, and he was six feet three inches tall. His bulging muscles showed that he worked out frequently, and he was charming enough to be the male lead in a movie.
Therefore, Luke could only derive his confidence from his wealth. He assumed that the man was just a poor model who was there to flirt with women. It was a wonder how the man even managed to come to the wedding.
“What are you looking at, Joey?” asked Luke deliberately. Josephine could only lie to him. “Nothing. I’m just looking at the night view.”
