“So what? She looks down on relatives like us now.” Olivia snorted. The wedding would be held the next day, so the entire island was filled with a blissful atmosphere. Wedding decorations could be seen everywhere, and all the guests felt at home.
Meanwhile, a frustrated Josephine was drinking coffee. Seeing that she was still vexed, Luke appeased her by saying, “Joey, why don’t I teach that man a lesson for bullying you? Perhaps you’ll feel better that way.”
Josephine shook her head. “I offended him first.” Luke was attracted to Josephine as she spaced out. The woman had a conflicting temperament; she looked obedient while spacing out, but aggressive and full of energy when she worked.
What was more, whenever she blew her top or argued with other people, she was mean and willful, but she also appeared confident at the same time.
More often than not, Luke felt that he could never have any control over the woman, and that was what made her attractive. He had the urge to conquer her and make her his.
Furthermore, even though her grandfather was retired, he was still influeritial. “I have to work now.” With that, Josephine rose. from the chair and left. Luke ran after her and said, “Do you want to go to the beach, Joey? The water is clear. Why don’t we take a stroll?” “There’s no need for that. I’m swamped with work.” Josephine came up with an excuse and headed to the pedestrian walkway.
As soon as she rounded a corner, she saw a fancy convertible charging toward her. She was so shocked that she stood rooted to the spot. Her face paled in an instant, and her soul almost left her body. Damn it! Who would drive a car on the pedestrian walkway?!
“Joey!” Luke rushed over and pulled her back. The man in the convertible immediately stepped on the brake pedal, after which their eyes met.
“It’s you!” When Josephine came to her senses, she was infuriated. So what if he has a convertible? He’s not supposed to be driving on the pedestrian walkway!
“You again!” Ethan took off his sunglasses and revealed his chiseled face before looking at her mockingly. “Do you even have a driver’s license? If you had crashed into my girlfriend, I would’ve never let you off!” Luke promptly defended the woman.
“Huh? Has she even agreed to be your girlfriend yet?” Ethan arched his brow.
Suddenly, Josephine landed a fist on the bonnet and warned, “Drive your car away. It’s the pedestrian walkway! Then, she approached the driver’s seat and crashed her elbow into the door with a thud.
A dumbfounded Ethan turned his head and watched as the woman strode away in a fury. As he looked at her slender figure, he felt. speechless. That woman is so feisty!
At any rate, he was in the wrong. Since he was in a hurry to go back and attend an online meeting, he took a shortcut and drove onto the pedestrian walkway.
As Luke looked at the woman, he was secretly elated. Haha! Handsomeness doesn’t matter to Josephine. She doesn’t even have any regard for such a good-looking man.
Josephine was a rebellious and obstinate person, which was why she managed to gain a footing in the world of mass media. While returning to the villa, Ethan looked out the window and took in the view, but all he thought about was the brave and beautiful woman.
Since the wedding was around the corner, everyone on the island was shrouded in at sense of happiness. The guests enjoyed themselves as though they were on a vacation.
Meanwhile, Olivia had been taking Connor to try out different restaurants on the island for the past few days. One thing had been bothering her, though-she had no idea what to wear to the wedding the next day, for she did not have any expensive clothing.
Although she had a few dresses from luxury brands, they were outdated. Shewould only be a laughing stock if she put on any of those.
Therefore, she came up with a solution. Since they could borrow formal clothes from the staff members, she decided to bite the bullet and make such a request.
She claimed that she and her family members had forgotten to bring formal clothes, so they wanted to borrow a few outfits from them.
The staff members would always try to fulfill the guests’ requests. Although they knew that the woman was lying, they still served her with a smile. Just like that,
Olivia managed to borrow some proper clothes for her family members and herself.
In the evening, Selena returned to the villa after having fun outside. When she saw that her mother had borrowed a formal dress for her, she was pleased. Now, she could put on the dress and meet Ethan with confidence.
“You know what, Mom? There will be a bonfire party on the beach later. It’ll be fun. Would you like to come with me?” Selena asked.
“The party is meant for young people, so I’m not going.” Olivia wasn’t interested. Then, she asked her daughter in a small voice, “Have you come across any man you like?”
A smile formed on Selena’s face. “Yes. Not only is he handsome, but he’s also from a wealthy family.”
“You must seize the chance and get him while we’re here, then.” “There’s no rush, Mom. I’ll come up with a way,” assured Selena as she looked forward to bumping into the man at the bonfire party.
“You’re my only hope.” Olivia sighed. “Don’t worry. I won’t disappoint you.” Certainly, Selena hoped to marry a wealthy man as well. As she looked at the view outside the window, she felt fidgety. Looks like it’s going to be an unforgettable night.
Unlike Selena’s eagerness, Josephine was being nagged by her mother in the adjacent villa. “Why aren’t you going to the party, Joey? It’s a good chance for you to meet new friends and even find a husband,” said Heidi, persuading her daughter to go to the party.
She heard that all the young people on the island would be attending the bonfire party. Initially, she thought that her daughter was going as well, but when she realized that it wasn’t the case, she was vexed.
“Why are you in a rush, Mom? I’m only 25, and I don’t want to get married yet,” Josephine replied while reading a book.
“Yes, you’re only 25, but if you keep putting off finding a boyfriend, you’ll be 30 in the blink of an eye. You have to look for a decent man and get married while you’re in your prime. When you get older, you’ll have fewer choices.” Heidi felt helpless. Since Josephine was her only child, she certainly hoped that her daughter would get married sooner.
“As long as you’re willing to attend the party, you can come up with a demand.” Heidi had no choice but to make such a promise. “For real? Can I come up with any demand?” Josephine appeared tempted.
“Yes, that’s right,” Heidi replied sincerely. Josephine put down the book and said,
“Alright. When we go home, you can’t stop me from moving out. That’s my demand.”
Heidi was startled while considering whether she should agree to it. “I’m 25, Mom. If you don’t let me move out, no man will ever marry me,” said Josephine, mounting pressure on her mother.
“You’re not very old, so what’s wrong with you staying with us?” Heidi felt that she couldn’t agree to it; she didn’t have the heart to let her daughter move out, after all.
“Mom, my friends are around my age, but none of their parents demand that they return home before 9.00PM. I’m the only one who has a curfew. How do you expect me to find a husband when you don’t give me freedom? Is that even possible?”
Josephine said matter-of- factly.
After giving it some thought, Heidi nodded. “Okay, I’ll agree to it. However, you have to do your best to find a husband tonight.” “Sure, I’ll try very hard to get a brilliant boyfriend.” Josephine was elated deep within. I’ll be free!
Since she was a young child, she had been forced to live a disciplined life, and it was finally coming to an end. She could order food delivery in the middle of the night and binge-watch dramas until the next morning, and no one would wake her up while she was asleep. She could also bring her friends to her place as she pleased. She felt unfettered at the thought of it.
“Go back to your room and change into a nice dress. Look at what you’re wearing. I don’t even wear such a tacky color, but you’re fine with it,” Heidi nagged. Josephine refuted, “What do you know, Mom? It’s my style!”
With that, she went upstairs and opened the wardrobe before going through the clothes she had brought with her. Eventually, she found a camisole dress she had never put on before. She bought it while shopping in a mall back then, but since she was swamped with work, she hadn’t gotten around to wearing it yet.
When she heard that they were coming to an island, she decided to bring it with her, but she still hadn’t had the chance to put it on. It’s the best dress for the party. It was a blue camisole dress made from silk. The design was niche, and it would make the wearer look both sexy and elegant.
Since she was going to put the dress on, she had to apply some makeup as well.
Therefore, she fished out her cosmetic bag and focused on getting ready. Since it’s nighttime, why don’t I make myself look more charming?
When Josephine was done, she went downstairs. Heidi almost couldn’t recognize her daughter. She looks as attractive as the hottest celebrities now! “I’m heading out now,
Mom.”
“Your makeup is a little heavy, and your lipstick might be too red,” Heidi said. “Mom, bright red lipstick is very trendy now. I wouldn’t look attractive if I wore light makeup at night.” Josephine could always come up with an excuse to persuade her mother.
