Chapter 233 Josephine sighed. However, she believed Jasmine's thought process was somewhat useful.
She needed something that wasn't too cutesy nor too serious. Perhaps a pun that could express her apology...
"Mr. Zimmerman Senior, could you write this for me? 'A tiny seed, of hope in barren ground, A promise to heal, where wounds are profound.
I sprout with remorse, and see your gentle grace, A chance to restore, and find a better place." Frank didn't understand. "What's this?" Josephine smiled and replied, "It's just a little riddle, hinting at an apology." "Alright. You young folks these days are always coming up with odd ideas!" This wasn't something usual for her. But at that moment, she had no other choice. Watching Frank write them down beautifully, Josephine felt that it was ridiculous. Even when she tried to coax Zayn, she had never gone this far.
After writing them down, Frank agreed to Josephine's request to add the words "For Ethan Dane".

Josephine tried to pay him, but Frank refused to accept it no matter what.
She knew that she couldn't just take it for free, so she transferred 30 thousand dollars to Winnie instead.
When she brought the calligraphy piece to the hotel, more than an hour had passed.
There were still a few minutes before the auditions began, so technically, she wasn't late.
As soon as she stepped in, she looked around for Ethan. When she couldn't find him anywhere, she had no choice but to ask Mason.
"Where's Ethan?" Mason took a long glance at her. In the past two days, she had been bringing up Ethan on her own way too many times.
Could something be going on between them? But again, when a handsman and a beautiful woman spent so much ttogether, it'd be weird if nothing happened at all.
"He's getting ready in his room." "Oh, I'll go look for him then." Since there was stleft, Josephine went to his room and knocked on the door.
"Cin." His voice cthrough the door, but it was cold and distant.
Ever since she had met him, he had always talked to her gently and with warmth.
Now that he was acting so coldly, she wasn't used to it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen she opened the door, she saw him wearing a black turtleneck. At that moment, he was standing at the window near the balcony with a script in one hand.
His long, dark hand wasn't nicely styled like usual, with strands loosely falling over his forehead.
This made him look more gloomy than usual, which was totally different from his usual warm self.
It was obvious he was still mad.
"Ethan, I'm here to apologize. I heard from George that you like calligraphy, so I asked so write this for you. Plea look." QUMS She handed the framed piece to him and emphasized, "This is written by Frank Zimmerman himself. He's a well-known calligraphy artist." Ethan didn't take it immediately. He asked indifferently, "Why are you apologizing?"
"When we played squash yesterday, I didn't consider your feelings andm went overboard teasing you. I'm truly sorry." She stared at him earnestly while her tone was as sincere as it could've been.
"Lately, you've been accompanyingand helping me. Not only did not repay the favor, but I also took advantage of your kindness and ended up hurting your pride.
"I've been reflecting since then, and I genuinely feel sorry. I hope you can forgive me." Ethan let out a sigh. He took the piece from her hands. "That's not why I was upset."
Despite saying so, his movements were swift. He quickly looked at the calligraphy When he saw what was written, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "What does this mean?"
Josephine blinked. "Didn't you graduate from a top university with a double major in finance? How could you not understand this?"
