Chapter 783: Chapter 784 The Humiliation

“Well, if it isn’t the renowned Mrs. Russell.”

A mocking voice echoed from the right side of the hall. It was a male voice filled with arrogance.

Josie and Angel immediately looked over, and to their surprise, they saw Zach dressed in a suit, hands in his pockets, looking refined yet with a hint of a dandy.

He was eyeing Josie with ill intent.

Josie closed her eyes and couldn’t believe how bad her luck was.

She was about to pretend she hadn’t heard it, but Zach stepped forward to stop her. “Mrs. Russell, now that you’re famous, do you no longer wish to acknowledge your old friends?”

Josie slowly raised her gaze, her tone calm and unhurried. “Would you consider me an old friend of yours?”

Zach laughed, “Why wouldn’t I? We’ve been through so much together and shared hardships. Now that you’re famous, do you want to just write it all off?”

Every sentence was laced with sarcasm, filled with mockery and ridicule.

If it weren’t for the surrounding crowd, Josie would have loved nothing more than to smash. the bag in her hand on Zach’s head.

She glanced around, suppressing her frustration for the moment. “If you have nothing else. for me, I’ll be on my way.”

Seeing her not resisting, Zach laughed even harder. “Josie, I didn’t expect you to dare show up at Dexter’s event. If I were him, I would definitely blacklist you.”

Every man on earth would retaliate when they got cheated on.

Josie was well aware of that. Yet, she didn’t want to make a scene because there were too many people around. She didn’t want to cause trouble for Dexter.

The person in charge of Mandarin Oriental Hotel had noticed her as soon as she walked in. the door. At that moment, he was in a difficult position. On the one hand, there was the boss’ wife, and on the other, a well-known figure. He couldn’t afford to offend either of them.

The person in charge of the hotel wanted to step forward, but Josie noticed him. Silently, she made a gesture, signaling him to step back.

“What a pity you’re not Dexter,” Josie responded and smirked. “Even if you threw yourself at me, I wouldn’t be interested. That’s because a man who doesn’t respect himself is truly disgraceful.”

She hinted at something, which irritated Zach so much that the corner of his mouth twitched.

“What makes you think you’re so special?” He suddenly snatched the document from Josie’s hand, blatantly opening it to take a look. “Tsk! Do you want to meet the minister of the Ministry of Land and Resources? You must be dreaming.”

“You!” After listening for a while, Angel wanted to step forward and take the document back, but Josie held her hand to stop her.

Zach waved the document lightly. “How about spending the night with me? I promise you’ll get to see him.”

Josie’s breathing gradually became rapid. In the standoff, the long-standing conflict between the two finally erupted. Zach was determined not to let her go without a good humiliation.

“Sure.” Josie stepped forward, the front of her high heels pressing down on Zach’s foot. She leaned her entire weight forward, causing him to grit his teeth and glare at her.

“I wonder if Ms. Shaw finds out, will she be able to hold herself back from causing a scene at the Olsen Residence? If Laura steps down, what will you have to compete with your sister, Mr. Zach?”

With a hint of mockery, Josie’s expression infuriated Zach, who pushed her away. “What’s so great about Laura? She’s nothing more than someone I once beat to the brink of death!”

“Oh.” Josie nodded. “I’ve heard that most of the projects you have were secured by her. Mr. Zach, would you really dare to say those words in front of her now?”

The greatest affront to a man’s dignity was to belittle him and mock him for living off at woman.

Zach was furious, his hand raised high, ready to strike. “You b*tch!”

“Zach!” A voice suddenly came from the stairs.
