Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 194

Chapter 194

Both of them shouted at the same time: “Holy shit!”

“Wilfred, come look at your fierce ex–wife.”

Wilfred immediately pictured Josephine in his mind.

He put down his glass and followed the direction of their pointing fingers with his gaze. Everyone in the dance floor stood frozen, staring at a dazzling yet fierce–looking woman.

The woman said, “Still dare to grope around?”

The man who had just been swaggering and saying, “You’re in a bar, what’s there to be afraid of if someone touches you?” was now being stomped on and begging for mercy.

“Please, ma’am, spare me! I didn’t touch you!”

“Touching others is no good either.”

“I won’t touch anyone, not anyone!”

Declan was prejudiced against Josephine; even when she did the right thing, he had to criticize her.

“What’s it got to do with her? I think she just wanted to hit someone.”

“Look at how crazy she is. Fred, what kind of hellish life did you used to live…”

Declan turned around.

He found the seat empty.

He asked Shane, “Where’s Fred?”

Shane pointed at the stairs: “He went to find his ex–wife.‘

“So what about us? Wait for him?”

Shane picked up the photos on the table, nudged Declan’s shoulder, and said:

“Why wait for him? Give the photos to his driver, and let’s go find another place to have fun.”

During that week, Wilfred had Eugene call EternalCore Fab twice to make appointments with Josephine.

Josephine always had the receptionist say she was unavailable.

Novo Tech had lost money on several consecutive projects and was in urgent need of a profitable

new venture.

Josephine’s Singularity V2 technology had hit a snag, and he just happened to be able to help. They could easily set aside personal grievances and work together for mutual benefit.

Josephine knew that Wilfred wouldn’t pass up a chance to discuss cooperation if he saw her.

So she deliberately made a scene at the bar, making sure that when Wilfred noticed her, he wouldn’t realize it was intentional.

When Wilfred brought up cooperation in the parking lot outside the bar, Josephine’s attitude was not as tough as before.

She said, “I’ll report this to headquarters and follow their decision.”

Wilfred had expected Josephine to coldly say, “Impossible.”

He hadn’t expected Josephine to leave him a bit of leeway.

He was left a little dazed, almost unable to believe it.

It was like suddenly receiving an unexpected gift, his heart gently jolted by a wave of tenderness…

Once the work discussion was over, it seemed there was nothing left to say.

After being hit by the wind, Wilfred felt his post–drinking headache intensify, teetering on the edge of drunkenness.

He said “Goodbye” to Josephine.

At that moment, Josephine happened to see Gideon and Elara coming out from the entrance.

If Wilfred turned around now, he would see Gideon and Elara, and all her efforts would be in

vain.

Josephine reacted quickly, reaching out her right hand to grab Wilfred’s tie, pulling his half- turned body back.

In an instant, the distance between them closed

The scent from Josephine’s hair walled over, and Wilfred froze, not expecting Josephine to do

such a thing.

His fingers unconsciously curled.

A trace of barely suppressed panic was hidden beneath his expressionless face.

He realized that his body missed Josephine even more than he did

Just as Wilfred was about to move closer to Josephine, her gaze shifted back from the distance and landed right on his face.

Josephine let go of Wilfred and smiled, saying, “Your eyes are glued to me, Mr. Hayden.”

“Thank you, Mr. Hayden. From your eyes, I can tell I still have the charm to make hearts flutter”

Josephine turned around with effortless grace.

Wilfred felt as if he had been toyed with.

He should have been angry, but thinking of Josephine’s smile just now and the potential cooperation in the future, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly…

Patricia sat in Josephine’s car, anxiously waiting for her.

Earlier, she had wanted to get out and go into the bar with Josephine.

But Josephine was worried that Shane would see her and think she was meddling, which might ruin things, so she didn’t let her get out.

It wasn’t until Josephine got into the car that Patricia finally felt at ease.

Josephine drove Patricia back to Opal Heights.

The cold white lights illuminated the underground parking lot.

The space felt even more tranquil.

Even the slightest sound was amplified.

Josephine seemed to hear the voices of Natalia and Zachery.

“I’m going to give this to Mommy.”

“No running in the parking lot. Natalia!”

Following the sound, Josephine looked over and burst out laughing: “Natalia.”

She hadn’t seen Natalia for days. Josephine had even dreamed of her twice, missing the feeling of that soft little hand holding hers.
