“Yet Ethan told me he only sees you as a younger sister. If he really likes you, he will start to notice you more after you come of age. If he doesn’t like you, even if you bother him for the rest of his life, he will never have feelings for you, Josephine persuaded her calmly. “You” Jenna was furious, for Josephine’s words were really hurting her ego..
“If you won’t take my word for it, Miss Langley, there’s nothing else I can do. If you’re trying to convince me to leave Ethan, you’ll just be wasting your breath, Josephine said coldly. “Hmph! Do you really think you can handle a man like Ethan?”
“You don’t have to instill doubt in my mind. We love each other. On the other hand, people like you with no one to love should be the ones worrying!” Josephine said with finality in her. tone. “Well, I still have a job to do. I won’t be seeing you off.”
“Josephine, stop right there!” Jenna got up angrily and called after Josephine. With a frown, Josephine said, “If you continue to cause trouble in the office, I won’t mind getting the security guard to kick you out. This is an office. It’s not a palace for you to fool around.”
Jenna was rendered speechless from anger. She didn’t want Ethan to be alerted about this, so she ultimately picked up her bag and left. After leaving the pantry, Josephine had a feeling that Jenna had malicious intentions. It seemed like she had made the right choice to stay calm and not fall for Jenna’s tricks. She only needed to trust herself, Ethan, and their feelings for one another. She didn’t need to believe anyone else.
Josephine received a call from Atticus at 3.00PM, asking her to head up. Thinking it was about work, she headed up with no second thoughts. Just as she got into the elevator, she ran into Tori. When she noticed that Tori was also going to the twelfth floor, she suddenly understood what was going on.
“Josephine, congratulations! Miss Ain’s position is yours now!” Tori said in a weird tone. “Now the whole company knows that Miss Ain will be fired soon. You don’t have to worry about getting kicked out of the company anymore.”
Josephine had her heart in her mouth. It was obviously just a chance for promotion, but Tori made it sound as if Josephine had forced Ain out of the position..
“I’ve never thought of replacing Miss Ain. She needs two years to recover from her illness. I’ll just be taking over her position temporarily,” Josephine said warily.
