Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 148

When she entered Natalia’s hospital room, Josephine found Dr. Castro there, but Zachery was nowhere to be seen.

When Natalia saw Josephine, she called out sweetly, “Mommy.”

Josephine responded, “Hey.”

It wasn’t Dalton’s first time seeing Josephine, but there was still a look of amazement in his

eyes.

This woman really was stunningly beautiful–no wonder Zachery had been unable to forget her all these years.

“Zachery went to the ward. Wait for him a bit.”

Josephine nodded and reached out to feel Natalia’s forehead to see if her fever had gone down.

Natalia covered her mouth and coughed a few times. “Mommy, don’t touch me, you might catch it from me.”

“Really? Well, I just want to see if I’ll get infected.”

Dalton thought: This is a rebellious mom…

Josephine pressed her forehead against Natalia’s.

The two of them butted heads like goats, pushing against each other and laughing happily.

Watching them, Dalton couldn’t help but comment:

“I have to say, the way you two smile from the side, it’s like you were made from the same mold. Even real mothers and daughters aren’t always this alike…”

When Josephine and Patricia went out shopping together, sales assistants would often say they looked like real sisters, that they resembled each other a lot.

It’s quite normal–if their side profiles, the arrangement of their features, or even just a spot along their hairlines looked similar, people would say they looked alike.

Several women gritted their teeth: NO! NO! Don’t say yes, don’t do it…

Zachery adjusted his glasses, his indifferent expression completely at odds with the ambiguous scene.

A few people started to egg him on: “Say yes, say yes!”

Just as Josephine was wondering what kind of favor Zachery wanted from her, she heard his gentle voice call her name.

“Josic, come here.”

Zachery smiled and reached out his hand to Josephine.

Everyone’s gaze, including the woman confessing, turned to look at Josephine.

In this kind of situation, with that suggestive “Josie,” Josephine immediately understood Zachery’s intention.

He wanted her to play along, to help him fend off his admirer.

She owed Zachery a favor, so of course she wouldn’t refuse him.

But for this kind of favor… Zachery really should have briefed her in advance, or else it would be easy to slip up.

For example, right now, she had no idea what role Zachery wanted her to play.

Was she supposed to be his girlfriend, smitten at first sight? Or the mother of his child, already married to him?

Josephine decided to cooperate and walked over to Zachery.

She decided to keep her mouth shut and let Zachery make up the story himself…

Everyone’s eyes kept darting back and forth over Josephine.

Black T–shirt, black jeans, black sneakers. Tall, steady stride, and not the least bit flustered under so many stares–she exuded confidence.

“Who is this woman?”

“She has a really great presence.”

“Isn’t Dr. Maynard supposed to be single? I’m literally dying here…”

The sound of countless hearts breaking filled the air.

Josephine, ever the professional, placed her hand in Zachery’s.

Zachery gripped her hand tightly and, with a sudden pull, drew Josephine into his arms, changing from holding hands to wrapping his arm around her waist.
