What Separates Me and You novel Chapter 363

His action startled everyone in the conference room. Even Seth was shocked.

Everybody directed their gazes to him as they witnessed the rare display of emotion on his typically impassive face, which was now dark and filled with a terrifying aura. It was as if he were ready to kill.

Seth raised an eyebrow and spoke with a half-smile, "Chairman Alvarez, is there a problem with my presentation?"

Lewis' fingers tightened around his phone so hard that the others could hear his fingers crack. After a moment, he grabbed his coat and silently left the conference room.

Seeing this, Conrad hurriedly chased after him.

He left the entire conference room in a state of confusion, with everyone exchanging bewildered glances.

"Mr. Fairchild, should we continue the meeting?" someone asked.

Seth replied, "Yes, why not? We're all here. Let's proceed."

Lewis wanted to undermine Kiran's authority while he was injured. That was why he called for this meeting.

What did Seth have to do with him chasing after his wife?

After arriving at the parking lot, Lewis opened the car door and got in.

Conrad seemed to know what he was up to, so he didn't waste any time with small talk. He started the car and drove toward the vacation resort.

Meanwhile, at the service area, Josephine received the roasted sweet potatoes and corn Quintin had bought her. She held the food and happily enjoyed it, oblivious to what was happening to Lewis.

"Is it good?" Smiling, Quintin stared at her.

Josephine nodded while gnawing on the corn. She devoured everything, leaving no kernels on the cob.

Quintin held the sweet potato in his hands. He waited for Josephine to finish the corn before handing her the sweet potato. He even peeled off the skin for her beforehand.

"You can't eat the skin of this sweet potato, so be careful not to bite into it."

Josephine nodded and caught a whiff of the fragrant sweet potato. She eagerly took it and started gnawing, dirtying her lips with sweet potato.

Quintin found her appearance amusing and used a tissue to wipe her mouth.

After a while, he asked Josephine, "Do you have a mobile phone?"

Indulged in the sweet potato, Josephine couldn't sign with her hands. Instead, she gestured that her phone was in the pocket of her pajamas.

Quintin took her phone from her pocket and instructed her to stay in the car and eat while he left to make a phone call.

With Josephine's phone in his hand, Quintin got out of the car and called Warren, wanting to ask him for financial support.

"You've spent fifty thousand dollars in one day?"

Quintin scratched his head and answered sheepishly, "Well, you see, I'm planning to go to Pearl Lodge, so please transfer some money to me."

"And you're taking Josephine with you? Does Lewis know?"

"Gosh, why do you have so many questions? Just transfer the money to me quickly. I'm on the highway right now and will be there soon."

"Isn't your card suspended? How am I supposed to transfer money to you?"

"I'll give you Josephine's PayPal, and you can transfer the money to her."

Warren sighed in exasperation. Although he didn't want to stand by and let Quintin continue his reckless behavior, he couldn't say no when his younger brother asked for help.

After Quintin sent him Josephine's PayPal account number, Warren transferred two hundred thousand dollars to that account.

He had been to Pearl Lodge before, and two hundred thousand dollars would be enough for them to have fun there for about ten days.

After receiving the money, Quintin finally felt relieved. Now, he didn't have to worry about running out of money.
