Josephine turned to look at Tyler. After a bout of silence, Tyler spoke up, "I'll go down first."Josephine couldn't let him go alone, so she quickly followed him and got out of the car.When they came up to Lewis's car, he was smoking in the driver’s seat with his window down. "Lewis, I’ve sent Josephine home. You…” Before Tyler could finish his sentence, he was cut off by Lewis’s cold and piercing gaze.Lewis didn't say anything. He flicked the cigarette ash with his fingers and tossed the butt on the ground. Glaring at Tyler, Lewis opened the car door and got out.Josephine felt the subtle tension between the two men. She walked up to Lewis and tugged at his sleeve timidly. Lewis glanced at Josephine, his eyes devoid of any warmth or pity.“You, go inside."Josephine gestured, "It was Tyler who saved me...""Josephine!" Lewis interrupted her and sneered, “Since he was the one who saved you, are you going to give him a medal?” Josephine's hands froze in mid-air as she

Lewis picked up his coat and glanced at Sierra. "Anything else?"Sierra pouted, looking at him with a hint of frustration. "Can't you stay?""No," he answered firmly and added, "not tonight."Sierra gritted her teeth in annoyance. Knowing that he would not change his mind, she released her grip on Lewis with a huff. "Forget it; go ahead and leave."She had stayed up late to keep him company because she thought that he wouldn't leave at this hour. Who knew that she was just deluding herself? Sierra realized that Lewis had the ability to make her experience a rollercoaster of emotions in the span of a few seconds. For a moment, she would feel that he cared about her, and in the next second, her hopes would be dashed. If Sierra didn't have a sound state of mind, she would have been driven crazy by his volatile behavior!Lewis left without even looking back. It was as if the gentle, meticulous man who had tended to her wounds was just an illusion. At the community clinic,

In that short minute, countless images flashed through her mind. The times Lewis ignored her, his coldness and indifference toward her, as well as the times he worried about her and smiled at her while patting her head. As someone who didn’t love her, his coldness and indifference were expected. But it was exactly for that reason that she steadied her hand. Her hand holding the pen firmly, she put down her signature, penning every stroke that spelled out her name.It was time she let him go and released him to the person he loved.It was also time she set herself free, letting go of her desires and her secret love. She only managed to sign her first name, when her pen suddenly slid off, leaving a long line on the divorce agreement. The next thing she knew, the divorce agreement was in Lewis’ hands. “Time’s up,” he said. Josephine was taken aback and watched as he carelessly ripped the agreement in half, before throwing it into the trash can.Lewis looked straight at her. “You’re

Even in a situation like that, the only person Lewis thought of was Josie.What reason could Josephine still have for not loving him after hearing that?At that moment, she gave all her love to that man, and he became someone more important to her than her life. It was also clear to her that his care for her was only feelings of pity toward a mute, and that her love would never come to fruition.That was indeed the truth since Lewis started dating Sierra after that. His favoritism toward Josephine shifted to another woman. He had left to protect that other woman instead, and Josephine became neglected. After they got together, Josephine not only lost the person she loved, but she also lost her only friend.Avery sent Josephine text after text when she didn't reply. Josephine came back to reality and typed rapidly, "Avery, don't go. It's dangerous.""It's not. Don't worry, I'll definitely win."Josephine was still worried and wanted to stop her. "Don't go. I'll send you money."

The news made Josephine’s blood curdle as chills ran up her spine, freezing her to the core. She stared at the television in a daze, Lewis' words filling her mind. "She won't have a chance."Josephine kept worrying about what Lewis would do to Avery. It turned out he had made Avery do something instead…Avery was not physically hurt, but it was enough to send her beyond redemption. This accident would not only affect Avery, but the whole Green family would be affected as well. And in this whole situation, Lewis was just a bystander.Tyler and his family rushed back to the Green mansion. Avery sat on the sofa in a daze, frightened out of her mind. Her voice was hoarse and choked with sobs. Whenever Tyler tried to question her, she could only gurgle a few noises, not knowing what she was saying herself.After Tyler found out Avery had met Lewis that morning, he sighed."Avy, I've told you before not to offend him. You just won't listen." Tyler sounded tired.Avery's face was pale,
