“Joey, what are your colleagues in the multimedia department doing? Am I a joke to them?” Luke
sounded angry. “Relax, Luke. Take it easy, would you?”
“I’m so mad right now unless you treat me to a meal. Otherwise, I’m going to make a scene in your
office.” Luke took advantage of the incident to make Josephine treat him to a meal.
Josephine was embarrassed at the thought of Luke’s car keys that she was responsible for losing
earlier that day. ‘All right, but I’m a little busy in the afternoon. So, maybe tonight.”
“Great! See you tonight, Luke said happily In the meantime, Ethan was in the hotel room while
browsing through the internet with his iPad. Then, he stumbled upon the news that got him curious and
tapped into it. The next thing that came into view was the familiar building of the Department of
Multimedia and
Communication along with two blurred faces of a man and a woman. With a pair of furrowed eyebrows
on his face, Ethan could tell that the lady was Josephine without even seeing her face. At the same
time, he also figured out that the man who wanted to give Josephine a car was Luke with ease. Not
long after that, he reached for his cell phone and gave Josephine a call.
Who is it now? When Josephine grabbed her phone and checked it out, she saw a name that made her
heartbeat race like a jackhammer. Damn it! Is he still trying to hold me responsible for that kiss or
something? Josephine quickly hid in a corner and answered in a hushed voice, “Hey, Mr. Quarles.”
“Did Luke give you a sports car as a gift this morning?” the man asked. Josephine’s face blushed in
embarrassment because she didn’t expect Ethan to learn about the news. She asked, “How did you
know that?”
“I saw it on our company’s website.” “Wait, you could recognize me even though my face was
pixelated?” Josephine was in disbelief. “Are you thinking of getting a new car?” The question came all
of a sudden.
“Nope, I’m not. My car still works fine,” Josephine answered. Just then, her team. leader beckoned her
over for a meeting, so she said, “I have to go, Mr. Quarles. My team leader needs me to be in a
meeting. See you.” She hung up the call and met up with her team leader for the meeting.
Meanwhile, Ethan, who was in the hotel, summoned his assistant and said, “Get me a feminine-looking
sports car. I’m giving it to someone as a gift.”
“Yes, Mr. Quarles.” Ethan squinted, thinking he should satisfy Josephine’s material needs to prove his
financial capability. Meanwhile, Josephine was in the meeting room where murmurs of gossip were
ongoing. Everyone envied Josephine because she would own a sports car as soon as she accepted
Luke’s gift, but to their surprise and bewilderment, she rejected him and turned down an expensive
sports car as a gift. Everyone thought, Come on, what’s Josephine thinking?
She has no intention of accepting Luke as her boyfriend, does she? Soon, Ethan exited. the hotel and
made his way to Tribus TV. As the biggest shareholder of the company, he was given a spacious office
with a good view, but to him, his job felt more like a vacation than work. As soon as he arrived, he
received an Excel file on his phone and carefully skimmed through a name list within it. Then, he found
Josephine’s name and contact, whereupon he started calling her number.
On the other hand, Josephine heard her phone. ringing not long after her meeting ended. “Hello, this is
Josephine speaking from the Department of Multimedia and Communication. How may I help you?”
“Come to my office,” Ethan spoke in a deep voice. “Mr. Quarles?” Josephine widened her eyes in
disbelief. “Yes, speaking. Now, meet me on the 18th floor,” Ethan demanded.
“You’re working here… already?” Josephine didn’t expect Ethan would personally visit the company.
“Just come up here.” Ethan hung up the call as soon as he finished his sentence.
