“I’m not drunk, Mr. Kowalski. I’m still clear in my head!” replied Josephine. She didn’t think she was drunk. Other
than feeling wobbly, she felt amazing.
When Katrina heard Atticus’ words, she stood up unwillingly. However, as soon as she realized she could take
Josephine’s place and sit beside Ethan, she was happy again. Thus, she walked toward Josephine and said, “Let’s
get some rest, Josephine. Come on!”However, Josephine knew what Katrina had in mind. She curved her lips and
wiggled her index finger toward Katrina. “I’m not going, Katrina. I want to stay here and accompany Mr. Quarles!”
Ethan’s eyes widened when he heard her words. I never expected her to be so clingy, he thought. “You’re drunk,
Josephine. I think it’s best if you get some rest!” Katrina said while secretly gritting her teeth. Josephine must have
wanted to seduce Mr. Quarles while drunk. I won’t let this happen.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJosephine was persistent and sat on her spot. “I’m not drunk. I still haven’t eaten yet, and I’m hungry! No one is
going to make me leave!” Atticus didn’t expect Josephine would act in such a way when she was drunk. If we don’t
get her out of here any sooner, she will make a fool of herself, he thought. Suddenly, Ethan couldn’t help but
chuckle. Then, he looked at Katrina and said, “I’ll take her to rest.”
Katrina was shocked and quickly waved him off. “There’s no need for that, Mr. Quarles. I’ll take her away
immediately.” Then, she used all her might to pull Josephine upwards. When Josephine was dragged away from her
seat, an arm wrapped around her gently, pushing Katrina away.
“I’ll send her home. Enjoy your meal,” said Ethan. Without waiting for the others to respond, he took Josephine out
of the room. However, Josephine was going against him. “Let go of me, Ethan. I’m not leaving with you!”
The others were frightened and thought, Josephine is too hot-tempered! How can she be so impudent when he is
our boss?! “Listen to Mr. Quarles, Josephine!” Atticus quickly reminded her. However, he could still hear her
struggling. “Let go of me, Ethan.”
“Behave now.” Ethan cooed at her. When the others heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Ethan
wouldn’t be mad no matter how Josephine acted. After some time, they could vaguely hear Josephine’s voice again.
“I’m not going to listen to you.”
Katrina was seeing red. She sat on Josephine’s seat, thinking, Josephine is so disrespectful to him… On second
thought, I’m going to let her be! It’s best if Ethan has had enough of her petty behavior.
On the other hand, Josephine was being dragged into Ethan’s car. As she sat on the passenger seat, her mind was
dizzy, and she felt light-headed. “I’m dizzy, Ethan,” she slurred.
“Do you want to go home? Or should I take you somewhere else to sober up?” As Ethan spoke, he leaned toward
her and stared at her.
“Do you have a place to let me sober up? I can’t go home like this. My mom will scold me.” Josephine remembered

was a no-no to get drunk.
“Come with me then,” replied Ethan as he started his car. After ten minutes, they arrived at a hotel’s underground
parking lot where Ethan stayed in. During the ride, Josephine’s eyes were half-closed. When she opened them, she
didn’t know where they were.
“Where are we?” she asked. Ethan opened the car door for her and said, “Come on!”
Josephine trusted him very much and obliged. However, as soon as her feet touched the ground, her knees
weakened, and she quickly hugged Ethan. In that split second, Ethan’s arms wrapped around her waist, and he
looked at her. When Josephine raised her head, their faces were just inches apart. At that moment, Josephine felt
her heart skip a beat. How is he so charming? Does he have to be this good- looking?
