Chapter 2189
Night of Destiny
Donna sensed how cautious Josephine was. She must be worried about me not liking her! In reality,
Donna now had a favorable impression of Josephine. Based on personality alone, Josephine was the
kind of young woman she was fond of.
Donna found Josephine to be a frank and unpretentious young woman with a bright and cheerful
personality. Even her looks were exactly to Donnaâs taste. She looks like someone open and gentle.
Itâs no wonder Ethan likes her and keeps saying that sheâs special. Although Donna couldnât tell what
was special about Josephine just yet, she believed that Josephine was someone worth getting to know
better. Ethan quickly came back. âLetâs go, Mom!â
Just then, a car pulled up in front of them. Jenna had rushed over thinking that she would come in time
to have lunch with Ethan and Donna. She didnât expect to run into them in front of the building.
Jenna got out of the car. She was all dolled up and fairly attractive under the sunlight. When she
spotted Josephine, she figured it was a good time for her to show off her relationship with Donna. Thus,
Jenna had a brilliant smile on her face as she walked over to Donna. âI came to look for you, Mrs.
Quarles!â
Donna had the genial smile of an elder as she watched Jenna coming over, but by now, she knew what
Jenna was truly like. Why didnât J realize sooner that Jennaâs the type of person who stabs people
behind their backs?
After thinking about it for a moment, she supposed it was because she never had the opportunity to
see the other side of Jenna. Thanks to the situation with Josephine, she finally had a clear
understanding of Jennaâs true nature. She was very thankful that she realized this in time. Otherwise,
she wouldâve been supportive of having Jenna as her daughter-in-law. âYouâre here, Jenna. We were
just heading out to have lunch together. Come with us!â Donna invited.
It went without saying that Jenna would never refuse such an invite. âIâd love to!â she quickly agreed. âI
came over thinking to have lunch with you guys,â she added. She took Donna by the arm as if they
were the best of friends and gave Josephine a smug look. Just then, Donna turned to Josephine and
asked, âYou donât mind, right, Miss Jacobson?â
âNo. Not at all.â Josephine smiled. Ethan minded, but since his mother and girlfriend both said they
didnât mind, he didnât want to go against them. Furthermore, he could tell that Donna did like Josephine,
so he didnât. have to worry about that anymore.
âTake Josephine with you, Ethan. Iâll ride with Jenna, Donna said. Jenna wasnât pleased with the
arrangement, but she had to go along with it anyway. She wouldâve preferred it if Donna went with
Josephine and arranged for her to ride with Ethan.
After getting into the car, Jenna seized the chance to start badmouthing Josephine again. She
assumed that Donna and Josephine ran into each other in the lobby and had no clue the two already
met earlier. âMrs. Quarles, do you think Josephine is seducing Ethan to get to his money?â
Sheâs at it again. Donna went along with it and asked, âWhat do you think?â âOf course, she is! Look at
the way she dresses. Itâs so plain! Itâs obvious how poor her family is. Sheâs trying to seduce Ethan so
that she can elevate her status in society! You have to stop them from being together, Mrs. Quarles.â
Donna chuckled. âYou seem to understand Josephine very well, Jenna. Have you had a lot of dealings
with her?â Jenna had a lofty look in her eyes as she said, âWith some people, you donât even need to
get to know them before you know what theyâre like. I can see right through her.â
âWell, I think there are some people whom you need to spend more time with before you realize their
true nature, Donna said while casting a meaningful glance at Jenna.
However, Jenna didnât notice that Donna was mocking her. She was busy thinking to herself, Does that
mean she wants to get to know Josephine better first?
Meanwhile, over in Ethanâs car, Josephine was patting herself on the chest with one hand. while
fanning herself with the other. âThat was such a fright! I had no idea she was your mother! What a fool I
am. Why didnât I notice it sooner?â
Ethan chuckled at how adorable she was being. âIsnât it better this way? My mother got to see your
real, natural self.
