After? “I was terrified as he reached for my bra. I grabbed an alcohol bottle from the side and hit him over the head. He started bleeding onto my skirt and all over my hands. When the police came, I explained to them that it was an act of self-defense, but no one believed me.”
It was Arnold who flew all the way to help her. Summer started to chuckle. “This was the lowest point in my life. It was a narrow escape from death, so I’m no longer afraid of anything now.”
“Dex, I don’t mind at all,” she stammered with a strong alcohol scent lingering, “I love you a lot, and I don’t care if you have a wife.”
Dexter imagined Josie’s profound eyes growing with contempt and exasperation. He fell silent. Summer had a lot to drink and wouldn’t stop prying on him, “Have you known her for a long time?”
“Yes,” Dexter muttered indifferently, without any intention of continuing the conversation. The conversation finally came to an end.
The driver peeked through the rearview mirror and noticed his boss’ eyes were icy cold, with a look of disdain masking his face.
“Summer came here because of Dexter.” It was late, and the both of them were seated on the sofa at the hospital. “She ruined his reputation, and he was infuriated. He gave the Olsen family an ultimatum, so they sent Summer to London,” Arnold explained indifferently.
“Summer had wanted to return to Wavery the past few years, but Dexter wouldn’t let her return. He didn’t want her here.” “Then how did you get her back?”
“Well, some things are best kept secret.” Arnold’s lips curled into a knowing smile. “I wouldn’t be his rival if I hadn’t had such capabilities.”
Anderson took Josie back to Mason Garden, That night, Dexter did not return home. His driver informed them that Dexter would be sleeping elsewhere, alone. Josie trusted Dexter. He had called to inform her, so she knew he was telling the truth.
Wavery was becoming warmer as summer approached. After one month, Josie had fully recovered, and Anderson could finally leave Mason Garden.
Josie returned to work at the Russell Group. Even without her, the design department had been functioning smoothly.
Josie had lost weight, and her personality had become more reserved. Alice couldn’t help but ask, “Jo, are you okay?”
“Yes, I’m fine. Why do you ask?” “Nothing. I saw you walking from afar, and I can’t believe how much you’ve changed.”
Josie chuckled softly. For the past month, Josie had been working remotely without affecting the progress of her work. Now that she was back in the office, most people were surprised to see her.
After work, Josie went to the Carter Group. Arnold had a press conference at the Carter Group.
She saw Summer at the press conference. Summer was typing at the back of the hall, her hair tied back in a bun. She was a skilled and gorgeous woman with outstanding charisma.
Summer was surprised to see Josie at the event. She politely nodded at her with a smile, but her demeanor was distant and cold.
Josie was well aware of the rumors that had been circulating about Summer and Dexter for the past month.
Everyone was talking about how differently Dexter treated Summer. Josie had only seen Dexter a few times in the past month, and they hadn’t had a chance to speak.
“The lady in the white blouse, do you have any questions?” the speaker on stage suddenly asked into the microphone.
Josie was the only one wearing white in the audience, so everyone’s attention immediately turned to her. She lifted her head slightly, feeling confused by the situation.
