What Separates Me and You novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 You Might What Separates Me and You by Victoria Wilson Chapter 60What Separates Me and You by Victoria Wilson Chapter 60Be Onto Something Here 

Josephine popped her injured finger into her mouth. A heavy coppery taste burst across her 

tongue instantly

Hey, stop slacking off! If you can keep working, then keep working! If not, get the hell out of here right now! Don’t waste everyone’s time, understand?” 

The plump woman always noticed when Josephine stopped working. It was as if her eyes were constantly trained on her

Josephine crouched on the floor, sucking her finger. She did not respond

It was apparent that Lewis was the one who ordered the older woman to watch over Josephine. When Josephine didn’t move from her spot on the floor, the plump woman started scolding and threatening her, without putting in actual effort to yank her back to her station

Of course, the woman would not dream of doing that

After all, she didn’t know what rich people were up to these days. There was a chance that Josephine and Lewis got into a minor argument in the past. If she were to seriously humiliate or harm Josephine, she would be in big trouble if Josephine and Lewis made up in the future

Are you even listening to me? Get up and do the dishes now!” 

Josephine could only purse her lips as she raised her head to look at the plump woman. Her (complexion was frighteningly pale

Naturally, the woman was shocked. You-” 

As she stared at Josephine’s pale face, she suddenly forgot what she was going to say

Josephine had caught her breath, so she forced herself to stand. After that, she turned around and 

continued washing the dishes in the sink

She felt quite lightheaded and dizzy. Her fingers were soaked in the water, so grease and hot sauce were infiltrating her open wound, which caused her tremendous pain

The plump woman stopped nagging her. She was afraid that Josephine might suddenly collapse lifelessly on the spot

That was because Josephine’s complexion resembled a corpse’s

Josephine did her best to hang on till 3 pm. There weren’t any customers in the restaurant, which gave her a chance to catch her breath once again

The plump woman patted her arm. Alright, that’s enough. Go have your lunch. You can finish the dishes once you’re done.” 

Josephine nodded in response. She went to the dining area that was reserved for the employees. Only leftovers were on the table

She grabbed a sandwich from the table and sank into a chair. Then, she started nibbling on the sandwich slowly

The television fixed on the wall happened to be broadcasting the entertainment news. When 

Might Be Onto Something Here 

Josephine looked up, she noticed Sierra on the screen. It was a live broadcast of the Playtime 

event, and Sierra happened to be hosting it

When the camera was directed at the audience, Josephine noticed Lewis, who was sitting in the 

first row

He was in a formal suit and sat elegantly in his chair while he stared at the stage seriously. Sierra constantly made eye contact with him, which was the reason why he wore a faint smile on his 

face

The camera kept cutting back to Lewis, which was a deliberate move made by the event organizers. Their purpose was to make Lewis show up in public appearances more frequently. After all, a camera shot with Lewis in it was a lot more valuable than ten consecutive shots of the 

event on the stage

The shots on the stage were meant for the audience, whereas the shots of the audience were meant for the investors

Did you see the hottie sitting in the first row?” 

Yeah! Holy shit, he’s so hot!” 

Is he a celebrity? Do you know who he is?” 

Many employees were standing in front of the television. Women like them tended to detect handsome guys at first glance

The event organizers invited many celebrities to the event. That particular hottie wasn’t a celebrity, yet he was able to score a central seat in the first row, which meant that he was an 

extraordinary person

Nope. I’ve never seen him before.” 

Hey, do you think he’s the host’s boyfriend?” 

Who’s the host? Did I miss something?” 

You’ve never played Descendant of the Dragons, so it’s natural you don’t know who she is. Once you get on Twitter, you’ll hear about her. That’s Sierra Woods, and she’s posted many pictures of her boyfriend. However, none of those pictures has his face in them.” 

Once that lady was done speaking, someone else pulled out their phone and started searching for Sierra’s account on Twitter. As expected, they were able to locate more information on Sierra as well as the loveydovey pictures she posted on her feed

Hold on, you might be on to something here!” 

If you cover that hottie’s head, his body is exactly the same as the one in the pictures!” 

Woah! Holy shit!” 

Josephine sat in the corner silently listening to the other employeeschatter. The group then moved on to how Sierra and her mysterious boyfriend fell in love and how perfect they looked together

Of course, the women also discussed how envious they were of Sierra

Meanwhile, Josephine munched on the stale sandwich before sipping on some leftover iced tea

She needed to hush the dishes later 

A few temale employees stole a glance at her before whispering among themselves Hey, that 

new cul seems to be a mute” 

How do you know

Annie told me.” 

Hey, they say that mutes are typically deaf as well Do you think that’s true?” 

Senously? Then again, if she’s mute, she can’t have lost her hearing, right? I heard that deaf people can’t speak at all.” 

Let’s test on her ” 

Once Josephine was done with the final basket of dishes and had placed everything into the sanitizing cabinet, she turned around to see two female employees heading her way

Hey, can you hear us?” 

Are you deaf and mute?” 

The women studied Josephine curiously. They had never met a mute person before, which 

explained their curiosity. At the same time, they didn’t think that they weren’t being offensive at 

all 

Josephine just stared at them blankly

So, she can’t hear us at all.” 

What a pitiful lady.” 

Josephine hated those looks. The sympathetic and pitiful looks constantly reminded her that the world saw her as incomplete

She walked past the women and headed toward the lounge so that she could nap there

Josephine was exhausted to the point that she could barely raise her hands

She only managed to sleep for two hours. When 5 pm struck, it was time for her to resume work

This time, she had to keep doing dishes from 5 pm to 11 pm 

Having done countless dishes throughout the day, bits of skin had started to peel off Josephine’s fingers. Her arms were extremely sore too
