What Separates Me and You novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76 Even More Exciting 

Sophia didn’t pay much attention to what was happening in the office, but that didn’t mean she knew nothing. 

Lewis didn’t respond to her. He looked at Josephine and said, “Josephine, you can go.” 

Josephine nodded and left his office. When she exited, she couldn’t help but look at the door closing on her. She slowly looked away when Conrad walked past and noticed how dejected she looked. He asked, “Madam, what happened?” 

Josephine looked at him and pursed her lips. She gestured, “Can we talk somewhere else?” 

Conrad flicked a glance at Lewis’ office before nodding. He led Josephine to an empty meeting 

room. 

“What do you want to talk to me about, Madam?” 

Josephine hesitated for a while. She scanned her surroundings and made sure that no one was going to enter before signing, “I saw Miss King just now.” 

Conrad responded, “Oh, do you want to ask about her?” 

Josephine nodded. 

Conrad said, “I’m not quite sure about it either. When I came to this company, Miss King was already working with President Alvarez. I only heard that she used to be his classmate. I’m not sure how true it is.” Then, Conrad comforted Josephine, saying, “Madam, you don’t have to worry. If something were to happen between them, it would have long happened. Why wait. 

until now?” 

Truth be told, Josephine didn’t want to know about this. She wanted to ask whether Conrad thought that Sophia and Sierra looked alike. However, she couldn’t find her words. If it was only her misperception, would she not be spreading false rumors? 

Josephine let out a long breath and gave up. Perhaps, she was only overthinking. She signed, Thank you, Conrad. I have nothing else to ask.” 

Conrad got up and said, “I’ll go get busy, then.” He gently reminded Josephine, “Don’t overthink it, Madam. You’re the most important person to President Alvarez.” 

Josephine forced a smile. No wonder Conrad was Lewis’ assistant. He had great skills at saying what people wanted to hear. It looked like he was not going to say anything about Sophia, even if he knew. 

When Conrad left, Josephine was alone in the meeting room for a while before she got up and planned to leave. 

However, the door to the meeting room opened, and the person that entered noticed her. They 

 

were both stunned. Josephine instinctively took a step back. 

Mr. Hall squinted his eyes and closed the door behind him. He smiled and asked, “Miss Vance, why are you here?” 

Josephine pursed her lips. She didn’t know how to communicate with him. She could only 

reach out and try to open the door, but Mr. Hall had his hand on the door, not letting her go. 

Josephine looked up at him in confusion. She thought they were in the office and he wouldn’t dare to cause any trouble, but she underestimated his boldness. 

He went in closer to her and asked, “I hear you can’t speak. Is that true? 

Josephine looked away. She tried to open the door, but he grabbed her hand this time. She tried to shrug him off, but he grabbed her wrist with one hand while grabbing her butt with the other. 

Josephine’s eyes widened in fear, and she was short of breath. Mr. Hall noticed how she tried. hard to make a sound but couldn’t. 

It was even more exciting. 

His wandering hands grabbed Josephine’s butt hard. Rage and humiliation made Josephine’s face flush red. 

“You’re truly mute?” Mr. Hall said with excitement. 

In a fit of rage, Josephine raised her hand and slapped Mr. Hall. 

The slap landed squarely on his face, and his expression darkened immediately, his burning with fury. 

“You dumb bitch! How dare you slap me!’ 

eyes 

Josephine tried to push him away, but he picked her up and slammed her against the door with 

a loud thud. 

Josephine saw stars. 

Mr. Hall grabbed both her arms from behind and lecherously kissed her neck. The more she struggled, the more excited he got. Since she could not make any noise, all her struggles seemed like flirting with him. 

“Tell me, who hired you? If you tell me, I’ll let you go.” He was trying to test the waters. If it was someone more powerful than him, he would have to think twice. If it was someone on a lower level than him, he would do as he pleased. 

However, he had forgotten that he had Josephine in his clutch. How was she going to reply to him? 

He inhaled, unable to suppress the rage inside. His hands started to wander around her body, 

and when his hand landed on her neck, he reached inside her clothes. 

“Are you really not going to tell me?” 

Josephine was helpless at that moment, and tears welled up in her eyes. Taking the opportunity when his hand was inside her clothes, she bit him on his arm as hard as she could. 

Mr. Hall was in so much pain he flung her off. “Fuck!” 

Josephine took this chance to open the door and ran away from the meeting room as fast as 

she could. 

Her messy hair and clothes, as well as her wretched look, told the passersby what had happened. She could not be bothered by their looks. She ran all the way into the washroom and locked herself up in one of the cubicles. Pressing against the door, she was trembling uncontrollably. 

Mr. Hall was bitten quite badly. He rubbed his arm and started to panic. He had not managed to deal with her before letting her escape. If people were to notice what happened, his reputation would go down the drain.
