Take Back All She Lost novel Chapter 41

Chapter41

His glasses were fogged up from the steam, making it impossible to see the emotion in his

eyes.

After a moment, Zachery said it was nothing and lowered his head to continue eating.

Josephine only had one glass of wine and was still perfectly sober.

After dinner, Natalia clung to Josephine, chatting, while Zachery volunteered to wash the dishes.

Josephine gave the camera to Natalia, who hugged Josephine and kissed her again and again in delight.

“Josie, you’re so nice. It must be so happy to be your child.”

Josephine thought of Belinda and felt a pang of sadness. She stroked Natalia’s little face and said:

“Not every child is as grateful as you, Natalia.”

Zachery finished washing his hands and walked out of the kitchen.

Natalia showed off happily, “Daddy, Josie gave me a camera!”

Josephine thought Zachery would say something polite, but to her surprise, Zachery said:

“It’s a wonderful gift. Natalia, you can open it now and take a look at the instructions.”

“Okay.”

Natalia sat on the carpet, hugging the camera and fiddling with it.

She didn’t sit on the sofa, preferring the floor.

Josephine watched Natalia and realized that this bad habit was just like her own…

Zachery sat across from Josephine and said, “I can tell Natalia really likes it. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. You have one too.”

Zachery was instantly flattered, “I do? Really?”

“Why would I lie to you? You gave me a golden bell, isn’t it only natural for me to return the favor with a gift?”

Josephine didn’t think much of it and handed the men’s wristwatch to Zachery.

When Zachery received the gift, his breath was a little unsteady, but his eyes were bright and full of life.

He could clearly feel his heart beating faster.

“A watch?”

Josephine was very calm: “You’re a doctor, so it’s convenient for you to check the time.‘

“Can I wear it now?”

Now? Why does he act like a child, so eager to try on a gift the moment he gets it?!

Josephine said, “Of course you can.

After Zachery put on the watch Josephine gave him, his chest filled with a sense of satisfaction and happiness. He squinted his eyes, admiring it carefully.

From Natalia’s side came a voice: “It’s a pink portable camera from LuminousCore Tech! I really like it.”

Zachery withdrew his gaze from Natalia and said, seemingly offhandedly:

“This children’s camera from LuminousCore Tech is a classic. Lots of kids abroad use it too.

Josephine replied, “It’s a pity that LuminousCore Tech’s later technology couldn’t keep up. You hardly see their name on the market anymore.”

“I have a friend in LuminousCore Tech’s management. There’s some inside news–do you want

to hear it?”

Josephine was curious and nodded emphatically.

Zachery said, “Thalassa Group has acquired LuminousCore Tech.

Josephine was shocked: “Thalassa Group doesn’t make electronics, nor do they have any semiconductor business. Why would they acquire LuminousCore Tech?”

“Well…” Zachery didn’t continue.

Josephine’s heart was no longer calm.

If Thalassa Group took over LuminousCore Tech’s chip production line, they would definitely be hiring chip engineers. Wouldn’t that mean her job opportunity was coming?

Rose Manor.

Wilfred was in a good mood tonight.

Not just because Josephine was going to give him a watch, but more so because it meant Josephine was finally bowing her head and giving in.

It was like a knight brandishing his whip, finally taming a wild horse–a sense of accomplishment filled him.

Shane arrived, bringing him some bad news.

“Josephine is living at Opal Heights now.”

Wilfred’s brows furrowed tightly.

Opal Heights? That’s not a place you can live in just because you have money.

You have to pass a financial audit, and you need to proactively submit your credit report and a clean criminal record to buy there.

Even if Patricia helped Josephine out, there’s no way she could fork out tens of millions to let Josephine live in Opal Heights.

“Where did she get the money? Did you check?” Wilfred’s voice was cold and stern.

“I checked. She gambled! That woman really has guts–she gambled with a few ruffians from Mistveil Alley and won over twenty million.”

The moment Wilfred heard the words ‘Mistveil Alley,‘ he shot to his feet, grabbed his suit jacket, and headed for the parking lot.

Mistveil Alley is the kind of place where even the police don’t dare act alone when making

arrests.
