“I’m not drunk, Mr. Kowalski. I’m still clear in my head!” replied Josephine. She didn’t
think she was drunk. Other than feeling wobbly, she felt amazing.
When Katrina heard Atticus’ words, she stood up unwillingly. However, as soon as she
realized she could take Josephine’s place and sit beside Ethan, she was happy again.
Thus, she walked toward Josephine and said, “Let’s get some rest, Josephine. Come
on!”However, Josephine knew what Katrina had in mind. She curved her lips and
wiggled her index finger toward Katrina. “I’m not going, Katrina. I want to stay here
and accompany Mr. Quarles!”
Ethan’s eyes widened when he heard her words. I never expected her to be so clingy,
he thought. “You’re drunk, Josephine. I think it’s best if you get some rest!” Katrina
said while secretly gritting her teeth. Josephine must have wanted to seduce Mr.
Quarles while drunk. I won’t let this happen.
Josephine was persistent and sat on her spot. “I’m not drunk. I still haven’t eaten yet,
and I’m hungry! No one is going to make me leave!” Atticus didn’t expect Josephine
would act in such a way when she was drunk. If we don’t get her out of here any
sooner, she will make a fool of herself, he thought. Suddenly, Ethan couldn’t help but
chuckle. Then, he looked at Katrina and said, “I’ll take her to rest.”
Katrina was shocked and quickly waved him off. “There’s no need for that, Mr.
Quarles. I’ll take her away immediately.” Then, she used all her might to pull
Josephine upwards. When Josephine was dragged away from her seat, an arm
wrapped around her gently, pushing Katrina away.
“I’ll send her home. Enjoy your meal,” said Ethan. Without waiting for the others to
respond, he took Josephine out of the room. However, Josephine was going against
him. “Let go of me, Ethan. I’m not leaving with you!”
The others were frightened and thought, Josephine is too hot-tempered! How can she
be so impudent when he is our boss?! “Listen to Mr. Quarles, Josephine!” Atticus
