Wells waits outside Josephine’s room, annoyed that she isn’t ready to go down to the cocktail party. He is thinking about seeing Josephine in the bath when she finally emerges in a green dress. He’s taken by her appearance. Josephine explains that her parents called, worried about her whereabouts, and she was trying to convince them that she is in fact with Wells. Wells insists that they FaceTime the Doyles to prove where she is. He’s gruff on the phone, and hangs up abruptly. Surprised by his curtness, Josephine asks who hurt him in the past.
On the way down to the party, Wells can’t stop studying Josephine. He dismisses his thoughts, reminding himself that he’s now technically her boss. Meanwhile, Josephine makes conversation. She pretends to be a fan of another golfer to rile Wells up. Wells is overcome by emotion, realizing that he likes Josephine and that she might “want the best for him” (72).
At the party, Josephine and Wells decide not to drink. She suggests they mingle with his friends, but Wells isn’t close with any of the other players. His only friend is the hockey player Burgess Abraham, with whom he meets for a beer every so often.
