When Love Breaks (Josephine) novel Chapter 255

Joe furiously slammed his phone onto the desk.

Neither of his sons respected him at all. It was as if they were deliberately trying to drive him crazy.

If he handed over the company to them, it wouldn't take long before they lost everything he had built.

Joe didn't know what to do. Zayn had stormed off in anger, and Yvan was completely unreliable. Was he really going to sit back and watch Forbes Group fall into someone else's hands?

After thinking it through, Joe realized that compared to Yvan, Zayn was easier to reason with. He had to find a way to bring Zayn back to manage the company. If worse came to worst, he could always offer him more shares.

When Josephine and Ethan arrived at the research site, the staff gave them knowing looks.

In fact, they had always gotten those looks whenever they showed up together. It wasn't because anyone had seen anything suspicious between them—it was just natural for people to speculate when a handsome man and a beautiful woman were constantly seen together.

Especially since neither Josephine nor Ethan were the flirtatious type. Aside from each other, they were rarely seen with anyone else, making it even easier for people to assume things.

Back then, Josephine had never given it much thought, so she never paid attention. But now that she knew Ethan's true identity and his feelings for her, she was hyper-aware of him. The moment she stepped through the door and noticed the staff's glances, her face instantly flushed.

She couldn't help but take a few steps away from Ethan.

Ethan noticed but didn't say anything, letting her keep her distance.
