Around ten minutes later, a man in a gray suit approached her slowly.
“Hi, is this Ms. Warren?”
“… I am.” Josie gazed at the stout man in front of her and was disappointed. Is he the so-called ‘handsome’ man my mom described?
“I’m Jack Lowry.” The man pulled the chair out and sat down across from her. After sizing Josie up, he put on a wide grin as he was satisfied with Josie.
“I’ve heard of your situation. I don’t have high requirements for my wife. After we get married, you can focus on being a housewife. I’ll be responsible for all living costs. I have two children. Please take good care of them. Besides, my parents…”
“Please stop for a second, Mr. Lowry.” Josie interrupted him and inhaled deeply. “I’m sorry. I don’t think we’re suitable for each other.”
Jack’s expression changed at once when he heard that.
“Ms. Warren, I’m a business owner. You should be grateful to be able to marry me…” Jack babbled away.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Lowry. I’ve made myself clear – we’re not suitable for each other.”
Jack seemed to be as old as Josie’s father!
“You’ll regret this!” After saying that, Jack stopped bickering with Josie and walked away directly.
Sitting on the chair, Josie rubbed her temple. I shouldn’t have believed my mom.
Since she had applied for a half-day leave, she didn’t leave immediately. Instead, she stayed in her seat to… watch a show.
There was a blind date going on at the next table too.
Unlike Jack, the man seated on the chair wore a black suit. His handsome face was flawless, and he emanated an elegant aura from the inside out.
The woman sitting across from him stared at him in infatuation.
“Mr. Russell, let’s hold our wedding ceremony in Ireland. What do you think? We can invite a lot of guests…”
With his eyes downcast, the man blurted coldly. “I’m sorry. I’m not satisfied with you. You may leave now.”
The woman’s smile stiffened.
