Chapter 2105

Yet, in the contract Ethan just signed, he committed a total of 725 million to the

project. After seeing Ethan off, Atticus instantly breathed a sigh of relief as his

struggling TV station finally received a new lease on life. Moreover, the projects that

he had put on hold now had the funds to get started. He could finally showcase his

abilities. He called his assistant over. “Call Josephine over. I want to talk to her.”

When Josephine received the call from Atticus’ assistant, she was a little puzzled.

Why did Mr. Kowalski suddenly want to talk to me? With a lot of questions in her mind,

she went up to the director’s office. As soon as she entered, she saw the usually

serious Atticus smiling at her and greeting her, “Hi, Josephine! Come on in.”

“Is there something you need from me, Mr. Kowalski?” “Have a sit. There’s something

I want to talk to you about.” Atticus pointed to the couch and sat himself down as well.

He looked like he had become ten years younger, and even the bald spot in the

middle of his head seemed livelier. After she sat down, she couldn’t help feeling

nervous. “What is it, Mr. Kowalski?”

“Well, Josephine, can you first tell me what kind of relationship you have with Mr.

Quarles?” At once, she became speechless. Why is everyone asking me this question

today? Even Mr. Kowalski? What kind of relationship could I have with Ethan? Aren’t

we just acquaintances? “We’re just acquaintances.” She smiled.

“Mr. Quarles is pursuing you, isn’t he?” Hearing that, her face flushed, and she quickly

waved her hand. “No, no. There’s nothing like that.”

However, Atticus looked at Josephine very seriously and said, “Tell me the truth,

Josephine. Are you two dating? This is very important.” Her heart skipped a beat, and

then she told the truth, “We’re really not. We’re just friends who have had a meal or

two together.”

“So, Mr. Quarles is pursuing you then!” “I…I’m not sure about that.” She didn’t dare

simply answer this question. If the answer was no, she would only embarrass herself.

At this moment, Atticus scrutinized her face with sharp eyes. In his eyes, she was a

pretty and energetic young girl, and it was not surprising that Ethan would pursue her.

Josephine was getting uncomfortable being scrutinized by him, so she forced a smile

and asked, “Mr. Kowalski, is Mr. Quarles your guest?”

“Aren’t you guys close? You should know what he’s here for.” He didn’t answer her

directly. When she heard his reply, she chuckled awkwardly. “I was just asking.” “Get

off work at 3.00PM later. Go home early and dress yourself up. I have a social

engagement for you tonight.”

At once, her brain went blank for a few seconds. What kind of social engagement

requires me to dress up? I’m just a small reporter. I don’t think I need to be there even

if there is an important social engagement. After all, our company has several wellknown female

anchors with good looks and figures!

“Or… you don’t have to go home. Instead, go to the dress shop next door. I’ll call them

and ask them to dress you up.” “I don’t think that’s necessary, Mr. Kowalski.”

“It is necessary, absolutely necessary. You can go now.” After saying that, Atticus

waved his hand to dismiss her. Perturbed, she left the office, still unable to understand

why she was being asked to attend a social engagement.

Shortly after she left the office, Katrina came in and asked directly, “Atticus, who was

that handsome man in the conference room with you just now?” After a chuckle, he

asked, “Why? You’re interested in him?”

“I’m already at that age to marry, Atticus. Ivanka keeps asking you to introduce me to

someone. Can’t you introduce that handsome man to me?” she said with a hopeful

face.

Atticus looked at his sister-in-law’s face, which was quite pretty, but someone as

wealthy as Ethan was out of her league. “It’s not that I don’t want to introduce him to

you, Kat, but the gap between your status and that of Mr. Quarles is too great.”

“Don’t underestimate me, Atticus. Just introduce him to me.” She persisted. “Alright,

here’s what I can do. We have a banquet among the high-level executives tonight,

and Mr. Quarles will be there too. You can come along. That’s the most I can do. To

capture his heart, you’ll have to show him what you’ve got.”
