The front lawn was already fully packed with fancy cars when they arrived at the Shaw mansion. However, Winnie had thoughtfully saved them a parking spot.

As soon as Josephine got out of the car, Zayn quickly stepped in front of her with his elbow extended. He gave her a look and wanted her to hold his elbow. Josephine ignored his gesture and wallard straight ahead.

"Mrs. Forbes." Zayn caught up with her and put his palen on the side of her waist. As josephine struggled, he held her tighter, pulling her close to him.

"Didn't we agree to behave in front of Mrs. Shaw? Why are you throwing tantrums now? Must you espose the issues between us to Mrs. Shaw and be the center of

This was not what Josephine wanted. She just wanted to keep a distance from him. However, as she thought of the chaos and gossip that would ensue if they went into the mansion separately, she could only swallow her pride and hold his elbow. It was just tonight, past one more night!

Just like that, Josephine and Zayn walked into the garden of the mansion like a loving couple.

"The Forbes have arrived!

"Wow, what a beautiful couple!

Josephine was glad that she decided to play along. Just like Zayn had predicted before walking in, she knew it'd be bad press if the crowd detected the slightest problem between them. She didn't want to run Winnie's birthday party

"Josephine!" Winnie was talking to someone else when they arrived. However, when she saw them walking in, she immediately started walking toward them quickdy.

With a bright smile on her face, Winnie walked happily toward them until she reached Josephine. She then cheerfully proceeded to give Josephine cheek kisses. "My dear, you're finally here! I've been waiting the whole day for you! It must have been a month since I last saw you. This is a record breaker!" Josephine smiled and replied, "I had something to do in Sunvale.

"You were in Sunvale? That's a nice by Great scenery with good food. I might drop by these few days. You must show me around then." Josephine nodded, "Of course. Here, I got this gift for you."

"Thank you, Josephine!" Winnie smiled even brighter. Josephine's gifts had never disappointed her. Every gift was just perfect

She unwrapped the gift in an excited manner. When Winnie saw the golden Tembellished on the gift box, she covered her mouth in surprise. "Is this Thompson?"

The crowd quickly gathered around her when they heard that.

"Thompson? Is it really Thompson?

"I have heard that the queue duration for pre-order items by Thompson is a little over a year. His brand is renowned overseas as well." "Wow, Mrs. Forbes paid good money for the gift." Josephine smiled and said, "There's only one pair of these by Thompson. It's the one-and-only pair in the world. I hope you'll like it."

"I like it! I have never liked anything this much!" Winnie was very happy with the gift. When she opened the box, her gaze shifted a little. However, she said nothing and kept smiling.
