Josephine was stunned, wondering how she was going to catch the balloons. They’re already about two meters
above my head! At that moment, Luke turned around as soon as he finished his phone call. Upon taking a quick
stride, he charged at one of the balloons with lightning speed in an attempt to grab it, only to fail in embarrassment
due to his short height.. Nonetheless, he still did his best attempts to grab the balloon with his assistant,
unknowingly presenting a hilarious and amusing sight.
On the other hand, Josephine was still dumbfounded by that sight until she saw a truck parked in a hidden spot. On
the truck, there was a sports car that contained many colorful balloons. In that instant, something seemed to dawn
on her as she looked up. To her surprise, there was a set of keys dangling. on the balloon that was floating in the air.
Luke, who did everything he could but still failed to retrieve the balloon, came complaining to Josephine with a bitter
look on his face. “I thought you would get the balloons. Do you know what’s on them?” Josephine gulped and
rhetorically asked, “Your car keys, I guess?”

always duplicate a new set. It’s not a big deal.” Luke said and stuck out his fingers. “This car is a gift for you. Do you
like it? I specially bought a pink one for you.”
Josephine was speechless in response to Luke’s words. A sports car? What is he thinking? She shook her head and
waved her hand. “No need for that, Luke. I’m happy with our friendship, so let’s just keep it that way. Give this car
to someone else who deserves you, perhaps. Anyway, my work starts soon, so I need to get going.” Josephine ran
through the entrance of her company like she was a refugee who was escaping from her captor.
Nonetheless, their interaction was secretly recorded by the paparazzi and was later made the headline with a title
that read, “The love that flew away with the balloons. While there was a paragraph that detailed the story of the
incident, it was accompanied by two pictures in which Luke and his assistant were seen trying hard to retrieve the
balloons hilariously.
In the meantime, Josephine had been suffering from a headache so severe that she couldn’t focus on her work at
all since the morning. although she expected the after-effects of her hangover.
“Are you alright, Joey?” Wren asked in a concerned manner. “My head hurts.” “Oh, come on. Is your age catching
up to you? You’re not that old as far as I remember.”
“No, it’s not that. I’m having a hangover.” “Who’s the client you were busy entertaining?” Wren asked curiously.
Josephine shook her head. “Nah, it wasn’t a client but our big boss.”
“Uh? So, you were entertaining our company’s director?” Wren was surprised. Josephine shook her head and
replied, “Our boss is someone else now. The director is no longer the biggest shareholder in our company.”
“Who’s the biggest shareholder of our company then?” Wren pressed on with her question. “You’ll find out soon
enough, so I’m not going to ruin the surprise.” Josephine smiled at her.
However, they suddenly heard high heels creaking on the floor from a distance as Wren curled up and stepped
away timidly. When Josephine turned around, she was met with an angry look on Katrina’s face. “Step outside with
me, Josephine. I want to have a word with you.”

“I’m busy now.” Josephine grabbed the files on the table.
“Aren’t you afraid I’d go loud about what happened last night?” Katrina threatened Josephine. Then, she bent over
and leaned closer to Katrina’s ear. “I’m going to tell everyone in our company about the intimacy you had with Mr.
Quarles.”
“Hey, watch your mouth, man.” Josephine blushed in her cheeks while trying to keep herself calm.
“What’s wrong? Are you scared? Let’s have a word about it then.” Katrina stood up with an unhappy look on her
face. She then walked out the door with Josephine following right behind her until they found themselves in a corner
with no one else.
With her eyes glued to Josephine’s face, Katrina grew more and more annoyed the longer she glared at her. “Now,
tell me about you and Mr. Quarles.” She demanded an answer from Josephine.
Josephine knitted her eyebrows. “Why should I tell you?”
“You two seemed to have known each other a long time ago, huh? Did you get to know him through your
grandpa?” Katrina was eager to find out the truth.
“My grandpa has nothing to do with it. Don’t drag my family into this.” Josephine responded angrily, warning Katrina
not to involve her family in their discussion.
