What Separates Me and You novel Chapter 504

Seth hung up before Josephine could say anything.

She put her phone away and stepped out of the stall before scanning her surroundings. She was on the fifth floor of the hospital restroom.

Climbing out the window was clearly not an option, and only one exit existed. How was she supposed to get out of here?

She couldn't get rid of her two guards.

Feeling helpless, Josephine suddenly saw a girl entering the restroom. For some reason, she kept staring at the girl.

The girl seemed to notice her gaze and turned to look at Josephine. "Why are you staring at me?"

Josephine pursed her lips, her gaze becoming more mysterious.

Outside, Darren and Arrik had been waiting for over forty minutes. They were starting to wonder if Josephine had gotten stuck in the restroom.

Darren shouted, "Mrs. Alvarez, are you okay?"

There was no response.

He raised his voice and shouted again, "Mrs. Alvarez, if you don't come out soon, we're coming in!"

Josephine still didn't respond.

Their faces fell. Without further thought, they charged into the women's restroom.

"Ah!"

Their sudden entrance frightened the women inside. Startled, they screamed.

"Mrs. Alvarez!"

Ignoring the high-pitched screams of the women, Darren kicked open the doors of each stall one by one.

More screams erupted.

It wasn't until the last stall that a girl wearing the same outfit as Josephine walked out.

They finally realized they had made a mistake!

Meanwhile, Josephine was in Seth's car. They had already driven quite a distance away.

She turned to look at him in the driver's seat. "Alex, where are you taking me?"

Focused on driving, Seth casually replied, "Taking you away from Elysium. Didn't we agree on that?"

Josephine was stunned. "But I haven't prepared anything. Are we leaving just like this?"

"Yes, just like this."

Instantly, Josephine felt her heart tightened. So this was how he planned to bring her away from Elysium?

Everything happened too suddenly.

"Are you sure this will work? Maybe we should plan things more carefully."

Seth's lips curled into a faint smile as he kept his gaze straight ahead on the road. "Don't worry, everything is under my control."

Even though he appeared calm and collected, Josephine couldn't help but feel uncertain about the situation.

She only dared to disguise herself and got rid of Darren and Arrik because she thought Seth wanted to meet her to discuss something. Even if they found out, they wouldn't dare tell Lewis.

It turned out that Seth was taking her away just like that. No doubt, her bodyguards would inform Lewis about it. He must have received the news by now.

Josephine's speculation was correct. Lewis had indeed received a call from Darren.

A dangerous smile crept onto Lewis' lips, and a flicker of anger flashed across his eyes.

Despite being separated by a considerable distance, Mrs. Larson could sense the anger radiating from him.

The next moment, he angrily threw his phone on the ground, shattering it into pieces with a loud crack.

Stepping on the broken fragments of his phone, he headed toward the mansion's exit.

Seated in the passenger seat of Seth's car, Josephine grew anxious. "Alex, please stop the car now! Lewis must have found out by now. If we stop now, we might still have a chance."

She could tell Lewis she was simply hanging out with Seth. She could even try to pass it off as a date.

But they could never let Lewis know that Seth was taking her away.

Lewis remained as composed as ever. He chuckled and said, "Are you so afraid of him?"

"I'm worried about you! I'm afraid he might harm you." Josephine's anxiety grew as Seth was driving further away from the city. She grabbed Seth's arm and pleaded, "Please stop the car!"

Seth slammed on the brakes, bringing the car to a stop on the side of the road. Caught off guard, Josephine almost tumbled forward.
