As for Josephine, she was still in the restaurant. After James and Elizabeth left, those who previously watched the fun at the side came out in an instant.
Josephine was relatively famous in recent years. Besides, she became more popular after she played the female lead in "Flowers On the Path" this year. When she went out, there were quite a few people who knew her.
Looking at Josephine sitting on the ground, they all discussed her as if they were watching a show.
"She usually looks like a goddess on TV. I have never expected her to be like a crazy woman in private."
"Maybe it was because she was angry. I just came to the bathroom and heard her talking. It seemed that the woman who came with James wanted to seduce her fiance, so she was so impulsive."
The other woman heard it as if she had heard a funny joke. "Josephine's fiance? Don't be funny! Although he is somewhat famous in A City, he is almost nothing compared with James, okay?"
"You are right."
Josephine still sat there. Although she did not look up, she could still clearly feel other people's unfriendly glances. She was in such a panic that she wished to disappear immediately.
But she didn't even have the strength to stand up, just holding her belly with one hand. When James kicked her just now, she only felt that she was about to be kicked to death.
Now, she heard someone aside talking about Theodore...
Where was Theodore? Now she was like this. Why didn't Theodore come to her yet? He came to the bathroom with her just now. But she hadn't gone out for such a long time. Why hadn't he come to look for her?
"Miss Liang, are you all right?" One of the onlookers finally walked up to her and asked softly.
"..." Josephine bit her lip tightly and didn't want to say anything.
Was she all right? Everyone here knew that she wasn't fine at all, okay?
"I'll help you up..." Seeing that she did not respond, the man thought for a while and reached out his hand to her.
Looking at the hand, Josephine suddenly waved it away forcefully as if she was stimulated. She roared, "Get out! Leave me alone!" With this, she clenched her teeth. Then she held the washstand with one hand and used all her strength to stand up.
The pain from her stomach made her gasp. After she recovered for a while, she glanced at the people in front of her with hatred in her eyes. "Having enough jokes, now you are pretending to ask me if I need help? Heh! You disgusting clowns make me want to vomit! Get out of here!" Perhaps it was because of the pain or angry, her eyes turned red.
She spat viciously and dragged her injured foot back into the bathroom in a less elegant manner.
She entered a compartment and couldn't stand it anymore. She leaned against the door and sat down.
After taking a few deep breaths, she took out her mobile phone from her bag and dialed Theodore's number. It rang several times before it was answered—
"Hello." Theodore's voice sounded nonchalant. "Theodore..."
As soon as she called out his name, Theodore quickly said, "I have already paid the bill. You can take a taxi and go back by yourself."
Josephine was panicking. "Theodore, I..."
She wanted to say that she couldn't leave at all and asked him to pick her up. She clearly spoke fast enough. But before she could say that, she heard Theodore's irritated words, "That's it."
