When Love Breaks (Josephine) novel Chapter 265

Yvan was amused by Josephine's expression. Just as they reached an intersection, a car suddenly ran a red light and sped toward them.

His heart nearly stopped. Quickly, he slammed on the brakes and jerked the wheel, barely dodging the crash. The car scraped past them, missing them by mere inches.

Cold sweat broke out across his back as he stared blankly ahead. He couldn't wrap his head around what had just happened.

Josephine was oblivious to the near accident. She had only been startled by the sudden jolt of the brakes.

She turned and saw Yvan's pale and shaken face. Then, she burst into laughter.

"You're laughing? If you hadn't been pouting like that, I wouldn't have nearly died!" he exclaimed.

Yvan lifted his hand as if to teach her a lesson. But in the end, he had no idea what to do. He couldn't hit her or yell at her. So, instead, he messed up her hair in frustration.

Josephine yelped and tried to shield her head. The pair wrestled over her hair until her once neat locks turned into a complete mess.

She shot him an exasperated glare as she smoothed her hair with her fingers. Her pout appeared again.

Seeing his smile return, she added, "That woman said I'd only be working as an assistant director. Two months, and I'd get ten thousand dollars."

He restarted the car and put on a fake smile. "Ten thousand dollars for two months? Then I might as well just book you for a year."

Despite Yvan's doubt, Josephine went anyway.

Before she left, she knocked on Yvan's door to let him know.

To her surprise, a fully dressed Yvan opened the door. He had dark circles under his eyes.

"Why are you up so early?" she asked.

"I'm driving you there."

He hadn't slept all night. She knew he was worried about her.

Josephine was young, inexperienced, and alone in a foreign country. She was practically a scammer's dream target. Yvan couldn't shake his concern for her away.
