“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 replace 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…” “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.

“Thanks.” Josephine turned her head and asked, “Don’t you want to stay here for a while longer, Miss.

Aguirre?”

“I’m no longer in the mood because of a certain someone, Selena said meaningfully. Josephine was

rendered speechless for a moment before she said to Ethan, “Please send us back.”

Ethan then stepped on the gas pedal. Since Selena’s villa wasn’t far away, it only took them five

minutes to arrive at their destination. At the same time, Josephine left the vehicle.

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

with her.
