“What right do you have to send Joey back? Since I'm her friend, it'd be more
appropriate for me to do so. Hand her over.” Luke extended his hands, ready to
whisk Josephine away from the man.
A shocked Josephine instinctively held Ethan's shoulders tighter. Pleased, Ethan
lowered his head and curled his lips. As Josephine looked at him, she blushed.
Fortunately, the lights around the area were dim, so she believed the man didn’t
see her bashfulness.
“You'd better go back, Luke,” Josephine said. Honestly, she would rather let
Ethan send her back. She could just thank him by then, and there wouldn't be
any trouble. However, if she allowed Luke to carry her, she would owe him a
favor, and it would be harder for her to turn him down.
“Don’t worry, Joey. I'll send you back safely. Why don’t I carry you on my back?”
Luke realized he didn’t have the confidence to carry the woman in his arms; he
rarely worked out, and he was only five-foot-seven. It would be strenuous for him
to carry a five-foot-four woman.
Displeased with the man, Ethan snorted. “Get out of the way.” With that, he
moved forward with the woman in his arms. “No way! Stop right there! Only I can
send Joey home!” Luke charged forward and got in their way again. “I'll get a
driver, Joey.”
“Forget it. I'll walk.” Josephine felt that she’d better rely on herself. “No!” Ethan
insisted all of a sudden. “Why not?” Josephine questioned. “I like carrying you,”
the man replied playfully.
While Josephine flushed, Luke's face turned livid. “Hey! How dare you take
advantage of her?! Do you know who her grandfather is?”
Hearing that, Ethan instantly knew that the useless man wasn’t only after
Josephine’s beauty but also her background. Certainly, he couldn't let the woman
end up with such a man.
“I'll find out in the future,” Ethan replied languidly and walked toward his
convertible. Since the villa was some distance away, it'd be more convenient for
him to drive. “Go back to your friends, Luke. Don’t worry about me.”
“I...7 “I'll treat you to a meal someday!” Josephine lied. “Will you really do that?”
Luke's eyes brightened. “I'm serious. Off you go, now!” Josephine decided to
make him leave first.
“Alright. You mustn't let this jerk take advantage of you, alright? If he dares to
molest you, I'll beat him up.”
“Are you sure you can defeat me?” Ethan sneered. “I'll ask someone else to beat
you up!” Luke barked. “Goodbye, then!” Josephine urged. However, Luke
remained in the same spot. It wasn't until they were out of sight that he left.
Presently, Selena felt bored. Although all she thought about was Ethan, the man
was nowhere to be seen. He must've left.
She picked up her bag and shuffled toward the car park, where she saw a
convertible being revved up. Upon closer inspection, she was elated. Ethan is
over there!
Realizing that the man hadn't left, she joyfully jogged toward him. “Mr. Quarles!
Mr. Quarles!” Nevertheless, the moment she reached the car, she saw a woman
in the passenger seat. The woman was none other than Josephine.
Her expression changed as she glared at Josephine. Following that, she put on a
smile and pleaded, “Can you send me back to my villa, Mr. Quarles?” There were
two seats at the back. While Ethan was hesitating, Selena opened the door and
entered the vehicle.

The man was reluctant to part ways with Josephine, and he initially thought he
could spend more time with her.
