When Love Breaks (Josephine) novel Chapter 213

Without hesitation, Josephine lifted her head and glared at him. "What's it got to do with you?"

Zayn wiped his mouth with a napkin, then rolled it into a ball and tossed it at her. "That man is obviously into you. Can't you tell?"

Tch. What did he know?

Josephine knew he had misunderstood, but she still played along. "And what does that have to do with you? People are drawn to the light.

"Ethan is more handsome than you, richer than you, and more loyal than you. Isn't it natural for me to be closer to him?"

Zayn was shocked. "You think he's more handsome than me? Are you blind?"

"You're the one who's blind. Anyone with eyes can see that he's better looking than you." Josephine rolled her eyes.

"He's also taller than you. His legs are longer, and his skin is also better."

Zayn's body stiffened, momentarily at a loss for words.

He could have argued that her views were subjective, but their height and leg length were indisputable facts. There was no way he could refute them.

"I think you're not just blind, but crazy as well. How could you praise another man in front of your own husband?"

Josephine snorted smugly. "You're not my husband. At least not for now, and definitely not in the future."

All of a sudden, Gloria, who was standing nearby, called out, "Oh, Mr. Dane, you're here!"

Gloria had already noticed Ethan standing at the door earlier, but all he did was listen to the conversation between Josephine and Zayn without showing any intention of entering.

So, she just kept quiet.

Slowly, she noticed they were chatting happily and even started laughing. At the same time, Ethan's face was getting darker.

Worried that misunderstandings might happen between Josephine and Ethan, Gloria voiced out his arrival.

Sure enough, the moment she spoke, Josephine's smile froze.

Josephine didn't realize herself that she was engaged in happy banter with Zayn, just because she had gotten the upper hand in their verbal exchange.

Last night, Ethan was almost dragged into this mess. Witnessing this, he would surely feel unhappy.

Ethan suppressed the unhappiness inside of him and said gently, "There's an audition going on today. Mason and the others didn't notify you, fearing that you'd be too busy.

"So, I brought the interview recordings over. Would you like to watch them together later?"

The audition!

Josephine gasped, then smacked her own head.

How could she forget about such an important thing just because of Nadine?

"I'm so sorry. I… How could I forget this? Yes, let's watch it together. Let's do it now. Come in."

Ethan followed behind her into the living room. He kept his gaze forward as he walked toward the stairs.

But as they reached the staircase, an unhappy voice called out from behind them.

"Honey, my arm hurts. Come have a look."
