“But you're bleeding! Let's go to the hospital. and get it bandaged now!” “I'll beat up any reporters who appear in front offrom

now on! Get lost right now!” the security guard yelled.

Josephine and the others had no choice but to return to the car to seek further instructions from their group leader. Their group

leader instructed them to wait and when the company’s higher management appeared, they were to rush over and interview

them.

Meanwhile, Ethan's car stopped in front of a high-end restaurant punctually at noon. Atticus had already reserved a private room

for lunch. Upon seeing Ethan arrive at the private room, the waiter opened the door and said to him, “Welcome, sir. Please come

in.”

Ethan then entered the room. The instant he walked in, he noticed a woman seated on the couch inside the room, but it wasn't

Josephine.

Tori, on the other hand, stared with her eyes wide in surprise when she saw the man who had just entered. As she looked at him

dazedly, she felt her heart glowing with adoration for him.

Oh my! All of his photos cannot even cclose to capturing his elegance! She hurriedly rose to greet Ethan. ‘Hello, Mr. Quarles. |

am Tori Alford, a newscaster in the company. Nice to meet you.”

“Where's Atticus?” Ethan frowned and asked. Didn't Atticus say he would bring Josephine along?

“Oh! Mr. Kowalski suddenly has something urgent to attend to, so I'll be accompanying you for lunch today, Mr. Quarles,” Tori

replied eagerly.

However, Ethan's face darkened when he heard. that. He already knew what Atticus was up to when he saw the unruliness and

admiration in Tori’s eyes.

Instead of bringing Josephine, Atticus had arranged for another woman from the company to attend today’s lunch. This irritated

Ethan greatly. “Excuse me. I've got something else on.” He turned around and left.

“You've just arrived, Mr. Quarles. Why are you leaving so quickly?” Tori quickly stepped in front of Ethan, stopping him from leaving

while winking at him. ‘Mr. Quarles, | really want to know you more. Could you please grantmy wish today?”

Ethan simply narrowed his eyes and asked, “Don’t you know my girlfriend works in the company?”

That rendered Tori a little awkward. She quickly regained her smile and stated, “It’s just a meal, Mr. Quarles. Furthermore, you're

already here.” Ethan's gaze dimmed when he heard that. “I'll never allow anyone to disrespect my girlfriend.”

He opened the door and walked out, leaving Tori stunned and flushed with embarrassment. Don’t men like women’s admiration for

them? All the men I've encountered have never turned down a lady who hurled herself at them! Ethan's words today truly hurt

Tori's self-esteem. Is Josephine really that captivating? How can Ethan be so enthralled by her that he didn’t even look at me?

After exiting the restaurant, Ethan called Josephine. Josephine was having her wound bandaged by her colleague in the car. When

she heard her phone ring, she smiled and answered the call. “Hi! Have you had your lunch yet?”

“Where are you?’ Ethan asked in a low voice. “I'm working. | have an outdoor interview today,” Josephine answered. However, her

colleague. accidentally tugged on her wound at this point, causing her to cry out in pain.

“What happened? Are you hurt?” Ethan asked concernedly when he heard that. “I'm fine. | just fell and scratched my palm,”

Josephine explained cheerfully. Ethan, however, couldn't bear Josephine being wounded. “Where are you? I'll be right there.”

“You don’t have to. My work is not done yet. I'll see you tonight! Josephine quickly ended the call as she did not want Ethan to

come. Furthermore, the interview she had to conduct today was of utmost importance, and she had to get it done.

At this point, her colleague said, ‘Josephine, there's a posh car stopped in front of the entrance. That must be the car of one of the

company’s senior managers. Let's go over now!”

Hearing that, Josephine grabbed the microphone and rushed over, completely ignoring her wound. It was indeed one of the senior

managers who stepped out of the car. When he saw Josephine. and the others running toward him, he panicked. Many reporters

had been bothering him recently and he was already fed up with them.

As Josephine had studied the relevant documents previously, she recognized the person stepping out of the car. It was Dane

Cooke, the vice president of the company. With that, she immediately pointed the microphone at him and asked, “Mr. Cooke, is

your company’s wastewater discharge in accordance with the law? According to the relevant department, the pollutants in your

company’s discharge are way above the permissible limit, and all nearby water sources have been affected. What do you have to

say about this?’
