When Love Breaks (Josephine) novel Chapter 115

George's driving skills were nothing short of impressive. What was supposed to be a 40-minute drive only took him about 25 minutes, and they made it just in time.

Josephine had assumed the Boathouse was just a regular restaurant, but when the car came to a stop, she found herself by a riverbank instead. It turned out the Boathouse was a floating restaurant.

As they walked across the narrow bridge leading to the entrance, they instantly became the center of attention.

"He's so handsome!"

"Seriously, I've never seen anyone this good-looking in real life. God, the people around him must be so lucky!"

"Is that his secretary? If I could be his secretary, I'd work for free. No—I'd pay him just for the chance!"

Josephine nearly choked. She was his boss! But of course, none of that mattered when one had a face like Ethan's.

Josephine felt frustrated but had no choice but to look up at Ethan. She had to admit, he did look particularly handsome that night. Dressed in a long black coat over a fitted turtleneck, his outfit was simple yet effortlessly elegant.

He carried an air of quiet restraint, cold and distant like freshly fallen snow. And with his wire-rimmed glasses subtly concealing his sharp gaze, the chill in his eyes only made him seem even more untouchable.

No wonder those girls were losing their minds over him. If she were a few years younger, back at 18 or 19, she'd probably be just as smitten. After all, she had always been a sucker for a pretty face.

Lost in thought, she didn't even notice Ethan looking at her until their eyes met, and he curved his lips into a gentle smile. It was so warm, so unexpectedly soft, that for a moment, she forgot to keep her distance. That fleeting warmth pulled her in, just a little.

By the time they stepped into the private dining room, it was exactly 8:00 pm. Everyone was already there, waiting for them.
