Evidently, William’s injury was worse than he thought. In fact, he was surprised how William managed to survive for so long.

He hated how Josephine kept insisting he was a scammer and how nasty she was despite being a woman. “You…” Despite feeling incensed, Josephine knew that the priority was saving her father, and it was not the time to
