Chapter 266 You Owe Me a Favor

Dexter gave a presentation on the research being carried out by the Russell Group to a packed function room of

media personnel and company executives.

With free time on her hands, Josie accompanied Alice to the thirty-second floor of the building to watch the event.

She saw many familiar faces there.

Among the crowds, she spotted the main character of the day. Dexter, a man with a respectable and noble

demeanor, stood out from the rest. His eyes were sharp and watchful, and the corner of his lips curled up in a

forceful smile.

“Have you seen the rumors about Mr. Russell living together with a woman? Remember? The one that looks like

you? I’m so jealous of her. What does it feel like to be loved and cared for by Dexter Russell?”

Josie felt a wave of unease wash over her. Loved and cared for? Not by him. He only knew how to torture her.

Josie watched from the sidelines as Dexter confidently answered the media’s questions. He used highly professional

language to highlight his intelligence and wit as he stood under the spotlight.

Dexter’s outstanding presentation had Josie spellbound. She was brought back to reality by the thunderous

applause of the crowd. She clapped along with them, a corner of her lips lifting in a smile of admiration.

As he finished his presentation, Dexter glanced around the room and caught sight of Josie standing in the

corner.

His eyes

widened in disbelief, but he quickly regained his composure, knowing that the crowd was watching him.

After a short moment, Josie felt a buzz from her handphone. You’re not allowed to drink!

Upon receiving the text, Josie switched her red wine to a cup of orange juice.

Josie wandered aimlessly around the room, her mind elsewhere. She noticed several of the executives. Dexter

introduced to her at the last event they attended together.

As she passed by, the executives locked eyes with her and smiled respectfully. They were unable to greet her

personally, but they raised their glasses in a silent toast. xo.com fast update

Josie’s phone buzzed again. She glanced down at the screen and saw a text message from Dexter: ‘Don’t go too

far. I’ll pick you up after the event.

Josie typed back, ‘Alright.’

On the other end of the line, Dexter’s lips curled into a warm smile as he imagined incurring Josie’s

irritation.

Indeed, Josie’s face was a mask of disdain. Arnold had noticed her knitted eyebrows from across the room.

He was captivated by her commanding presence in the crowd.

He walked over and sat down at her table. “What a coincidence!”

Josie was startled to see him here. “This is the Russell Group”

“I know,” he said with a mischievous grin. “you’ve become even more beautiful than I remembered

Josie rolled her eyes at Arnold. “What are you doing here?” she asked, her voice dripping with contempt.

“Josic, don’t be such a party pooper,” Arnold slurred as he loosened his tie.

Josie lifted the corner of her lips into a knowing smile as she called for the server. “I don’t think I’m the type to spoil

the mood,” she said. “What can I get you to drink? My treat.”

Arnold ordered the most expensive drink on the menu. Josie maintained her composure.

He felt a sense of awe and wonder as he gazed into her pure and profound features.

“Dexter Russell is personally presenting today. With every prominent figure in the industry in attendance. at the

Russell Group event, I couldn’t miss out.”

Josie decided not to pry further, but Arnold’s behavior became increasingly mysterious. “Since you came to watch

my husband’s presentation today,” she said, “doesn’t that mean you owe me a favor?”

How did she come up with this idea? Arnold’s curiosity was piqued as he asked, “What do you want?”

“You could tell me why Xanthe returned to the country.”

“Didn’t your husband tell you why?” he scoffed.
