Chapter 153


    “Gentle?” Josie smiled ironically. She mused, “Is Quinton even close to being gentle?”


    “Don’t judge a book by its cover. Maybe he is putting up an act to hide his inner thoughts by


    deliberately trying to disgust Henry. In this society, everyone wears masks.” In fact, Charles was not


    speaking up for Quinton


    It was just that Quinton was good at pretending to be evil.


    He might think that as long as he acted evil enough, no one would be able to bully him.


    Jo, why don’t we get something to eat first?” Charles wanted to take Josie to dinner, but it was too


    early.


    “I don’t have a good appetite.” Josie did not want to eat anything. She shook her legs in the passenger


    seat.


    Charles smiled. ‘Do you like cake? Should we go to the cafe?”


    “Whatever.” Josie was always indifferent. She was only willing to talk to Charles more because he


    could help her.


    Charles seemed to be used to it. It was already a blessing that Josie was willing to sit on his passenger


    seat and say those


    words to him…


    This


    was because Josie never rode in private cars.Content property of N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Even if she had to, she was ustomed to sitting in the passenger seat and did not dare to sit alone in


    the back.


    One could tell that Josie was nervous as she held the seat belt tightly with both hands.


    “That’s Caligo Club across the street, and the view here is just right.” It was still early, and no one had


    started working in the clubhouse.


    The cafe Charles chose was opposite Caligo Club.


    The one who got off the taxi is Jessica” Charles had a good vision


    “Why are you so familiar with her looks!” Josie was curious. If it were her, she could not recognize


    Jessica just by looking at the photos.


    “The reason is not appropriate for children to know.” Charles raised his eyebrows with deep meaning


    as he wanted to stop Josie from asking more questions.


    When she continued asking, he would always say that it was inappropriate for Josie to know.


    To Charles, Josie was just a younger sister.


    He had no one else in his heart. He wanted Josie to marry him back then because it was better to


    marry him than to be with Henry.


    However, he had no other feelings for Josie. His love for her was simr to that of an elder brother for


    his younger sister.


    It was all about interests. However, apart from that, there was still something pure in their rtionship.


    “Have you slept with her?” Josie was straightforward.


    Charles was startled by Josie’s question. “The circle is only that big…


    Jessica was a little famous in that circle. He continued, “I heard she would never reject anyone as she


    needed the money for


    her father’s medical bills,”


    “You… Your taste is quite appalling.” Josie looked at Charles with disgust.


    “What? I’m not a phnthropist. I can’t give her money for no reason just because her father is ill, can


    I? I’m not a scum. I’m giving her a reasonable reason to take money from me.” Charles was serious.


    Josie curled her lips and said nothing.


    “By the way, you shouldn’t be asking only me. You should ask Samuel too. He knows her as well.”


    Those who frequented Caligo Club would know Jessica. She was beautiful and , and she looked clean.


    Samuel had been abroad for three years. After returning home, he hung out with the circle of silver–


    spooned kids daily.


    However, Samuel ced a high priority on cleanliness, and he had mysophobia and a sharp tongue.


    So, ordinary women did not dare to get near him the second time after trying for the first time.


    Therefore, rumors had been circting in the circle that Samuel liked men and did not like women.


    There were not only beautiful girls but also beautiful men in Caligo Club. However, those who wanted


    to hook up with Samuel never seeded.


    Josie’s hand that was holding the fork froze for a moment. Then, she lowered her eyelids and said


    nothing.


    “Did Samuel also know Jessica? Did they… she wondered.


    “Jessica is the only woman Samuel has taken away from the club, but I don’t know if they had slept.”


    Charles had a sharp tongue, as always, and was very gossipy.


    “Oh… Josie lowered her head and said nothing.


    Jo, don’t tell me that… Do you really like Samuel?” Charles was shocked.


    Josie remained silent.


    “But Samuel is still better than Henry… Charles quickly changed the subject.


    He thought,
