That Day When I Got Married to My Boss at the Blind Date

Before Josie had a chance to respond, Shirley smirked. “Could it be that you got in through some other connections?”

She was quite adept at turning the tables.

In an instant, all eyes turned to Josie. A few who knew her wanted to step forward and defend her, but they were surrounded by the crowd, unable to make their way out.

The night wind rustled. Josie’s complexion was fair, so she was particularly conspicuous and elegant as she stood amidst the crowd in a gown.

She chuckled softly, mockery showing on her face. “At such an event, only you would rely on connections to get in. In all my years, Ms. Ross, this is the first time I’ve encountered a mistress standing up for the wife. You’ve certainly broadened my horizons.”

Shirley tensed all over, never having expected Josie to put that out in the open. She stomped her foot. “What nonsense are you spouting?”

Josie glanced in Laura’s direction. “You know, I’m probably closer to Laura than you are. As the other woman, don’t you find it repulsive to stand up for her before me?”

Her voice was deep and authoritative, causing a moment of silence to fall over the crowd. Shirley’s arms trembled. “What right do you have to label me as the other woman?”

Indeed, Josie had no proof, but she could tell from the woman’s interaction with Zach. She looked around and asked the crowd, “Isn’t that the truth?”
