What Separates Me and You

Chapter 90 That’s Probably It in This Life

Josephine fell silent for a couple of seconds, then she opened the door and got into the car.

Lewis was next to her. She could clearly sense his gaze on her. It was as if he wanted to cut her to

pieces.

Josephine hung her head. She didn’t dare look up at Lewis’s expression.

Fortunately, Lewis said nothing as well.

Conrad also didn’t dare to even make a sound. He did his best to minimize his presence and drove

steadily.

The silence in the car was deafening, so much so that Josephine could even hear her own breathing.

The car was driven slowly and steadily in the direction of their home. Josephine watched from the

corner of her eyes as the scenery at night moved backward outside the car. As she got closer to home,

she started to get nervous.

40 minutes later, the car stopped outside the entrance of the mansion.

Conrad very sensibly got out of the car and left, leaving the couple alone.

Lewis still didn’t say anything.

Josephine bit her lip. She plucked up her courage and turned to steal a glance at him. He was leaning

in his seat, completely hidden in the dark. She could only see his silhouette. She

extended her hand in hesitation and tugged at his sleeve.

Only then did Lewis turn his head over, and his line of sight landed on her face.

Josephine hung her head.

Lewis reached out and lifted her face. “What have you guys done in the past three days?”

Josephine’s body stiffened. Her mind could not help but recall all the things that had happened in the

past three days. Her head began to hurt again.

Josephine raised her hand and explained to him, “Avery and I didn’t do anything at all. We were

kidnapped. That person-”

“I know who he is. What I’m asking is, what have you guys done?” Lewis cut her off.

Josephine’s body shook, and her eyes gradually widened.

He knew? He actually knew. However, for three days, three full days, he didn’t come looking for her at

all.

He even asked her what she had done with Seth in the past three days.

She should have been used to it. She should have been used to his disinterest and his indifference.

However, what he said still made her heart ache and bleed.

She smirked, then she suddenly laughed.

She was laughing at herself for thinking too highly of herself and how unbelievably worthless her years

of adoration for him were.

She was laughing because Seth was right about her. She was truly pathetic.

“Answer me.”

Josephine looked deeply at that face that was in the dark. She suppressed the dull pain in her heart,

raised her hand, and signed, “What else can a man and a woman do when they’re alone? “She signed

every word clearly to him, “We’ve done everything.”

Lewis suddenly grabbed her jaw tightly. Josephine’s face was scrunched up in pain.

“Is that so?” He suddenly got closer to her. His face appeared in the light as well. “What did you guys

do? Show me.”

Josephine was stunned. She looked at him in a daze, and her chest was aching so much as if

someone was grabbing her heart. She felt a stabbing pain in her chest.

She sighed, “You’re the one who taught me everything, so you’ve already seen it all, haven’t you?”

Lewis’s expression gradually darkened, and he started to lose his calm appearance as well.

“Was it by choice?”

Josephine pursed her lips, then smiled with difficulty. Seeing his darkened expression, she suddenly

wanted to see what he would look like after his mask of calmness was completely unveiled.

No matter how much he disliked something, he absolutely would not let another person touch it as long

as it was his. Otherwise, he would be insulted.

She stared right at him. With the firm decision to perish together with him, she nodded.

However, it was unfortunate that all Josephine heard was him inhaling roughly. Then, he suddenly

opened the door, grabbed her hand, and yanked her out of the car.

Josephine was yanked so roughly by him that she missed her footing when she got out of the car, so

she fell hard to the ground and felt a sharp pain in her knees.

He, however, didn’t even look back. He just continued walking forward while dragging her hand.

Josephine stumbled to get up and to catch up with him.

Lewis pulled her into the bathroom, then threw her into the bathtub.

The bathtub was filled with water, but it was freezing.

Before she could get up, he grabbed her jaw and pushed her back in.

The freezing water kept going into her nose and throat. Josephine felt suffocated, and her lungs were

about to burst. She instinctively struggled in the water, flailing both her arms and legs. The floor was

covered in water that she splashed out of the bathtub.

After she struggled for a little while, Lewis grabbed her collar and yanked her out of the water.

She desperately gasped for air, and quite a bit of water came out of her nose and mouth.

“Tell me, was it by choice?” Lewis asked again.

Josephine opened her eyes, but her vision was blurred by the water flowing down from the top of her

head. She did her best to look at Lewis’s face but could not see clearly at all.

“Was it by choice?” he repeated his question.

Josephine still nodded.

As expected, Lewis pushed her into the water again.

This time, Josephine didn’t struggle anymore. She lay in there and let the cold water drown. her. Her

hands hung weakly in the water.

She never had the courage to end her life, so it was good as well that Lewis could help her.
