The man had done things like waiting for her outside her company with flowers, proposing to her in front of many
people, surprising her with lots of balloons, and putting up a banner outside the building opposite her company. He
had even stalked her on several occasions.
However, Josephine’s grandfather was fond of him, so she could only run away whenever she saw him. Although
she didn’t expect to see him there, it shouldn’t come as a surprise. After all, the man was wealthy, and his family
was powerful in Averna. “Stop running, Joey!”
When Josephine heard the man calling out to her dearly, she started running as fast as her legs could carry her.
However, the man was getting closer to her, so it was apparent he didn’t want to miss the chance.
Just as Josephine was running out of energy, she realized she had lost her way. She looked around and saw that she
was on a golf course, so she ran directly into a lounge to hide..

her head bumped into the man’s firm chest.
Being a gentleman, he supported her weight and asked caringly, ‘Are you alright, miss?” With a red face, Josephine
looked up and saw. an attractive face. What a coincidence! I didn’t expect to crash into him!
On the other hand, Ethan frowned when he realized who the woman was. I can’t believe the Peeping Tom is here!
He immediately retracted his hands. “Joey!” called out a man anxiously as he panted. ‘Where are you?”
Josephine no longer had any strength to run, so. she racked her brains while panting. As an ideal sprang into her
mind, she hooked her arm around Ethan’s and pleaded, ‘Please lend me a hand.”
Before Ethan could react, he saw a man in a suit entering the place and looking at him and the woman beside him
in shock.
“Joey…”
“I’m sorry, Luke. Let me introduce my boyfriend to you,” said Josephine charmingly as she ran her fingers through
her hair..
Luke looked at Ethan and felt that he couldn’t compare to him. He didn’t expect Josephine to have a boyfriend.
What was more, the man was tall and handsome..
“Is he your boyfriend?” Luke asked in disappointment. Josephine nodded firmly. “Yes, he is.” Then, she flashed a
sweet smile at the man beside her, hoping that he would play along.
Curling his lips, Ethan looked teasingly at her and said in a masculine voice, “Dear, why don’t you tell him what my
name is?” The smile on Josephine’s face froze. Why is this man making things difficult for me? How am I supposed
to know his name?
On the other hand, Luke was waiting for the woman to introduce her boyfriend. He had to find out the man’s name
so that he could look into his background later. If the man was handsome but poor, that meant he still had a
chance.

“What’s his name?” Luke directly asked. Josephine forced a smile and questioned the man beside her, “Why don’t
you tell him your name, dear?” “Since you’re my girlfriend, you’re supposed to know my name. Hurry up. Tell him
proudly what my name is.” Ethan gaped at her playfully.
Josephine gritted her teeth while trying to come up with a random name. She then said to Luke, “His name is
Wayne Bowen.” I hope he won’t expose my lie!
Just then, Ethan snapped his fingers, after which a staff member came over and asked, “Do you need anything, Mr.
Quarles?”
Ethan directly pushed the woman away and sneered. “You’re pretty good at acting, huh? Stop trying to use all sorts
of tricks and approach me, will you?”
Josephine was dumbfounded. He’s got quite an imagination there! Ethan said to Luke, “My name is Ethan Quarles. I
don’t know this woman, nor am I interested in knowing her.”
With that, he turned around and left. Luke was astonished, while Josephine was embarrassed.
