Chapter 325 Prison Visitation
“Hey!” The secretary immediately glanced outside. “Don’t ever let Mr. Russell hear this.”
The colleague became silent and asked cautiously. “But I don’t understand. What
happened to Ivy? What was her mistake that Mr. Russell made her leave?”
The two looked at a photo of Dexter and Ivy. Neither could understand why Ivy was placed
on compulsory leave. Being on mandatory vacation may seem good, but it was only one
step away from being fired from her position.
“I don’t know. It’s better not to question some things.”
Arnold brought Josie to the cafe he went to just now. The shop owner’s expression
brightened when he saw Arnold return with a woman. “Mr. Carter, is she.”
“Bring us a pot of green tea.”
“Sure,” he replied, eyes still fixed on Josie.
The café’s private lounge was decorated in antique style. One could see the heavy traffic
on the street. -outside. Josie was distracted. “Why did you bring me here? I want to return
to Russell Group now.”

“Yes. Josie glanced at him.
“You believe it’s an insider’s job?”
“Only the staff in the design department had access to my drawings.”
“Even if one of the staff in the design department did it, they would have deleted the
surveillance record. So, what’s the point of going there?” Arnold calmly exposed the flaws
of Josie’s plan.
He’s right. I won’t be able to find anything in the surveillance record.
Josie calmed down and considered who in the design department hated her. She could
think of a few, but they were petty rather than vicious. Furthermore, Alice was the only
person who knew Josie had joined the Interior Design Award.
She could not help but worry and turned on her phone to see how the post had spread.
However, she tapped into Twitter and found the post gone. No one seemed to be
discussing the matter.
Josie frowned and logged out before logging in again. There was still nothing-
“Give me your phone.”
Arnold took out his phone and placed it in her hand.
Josie searched for the post again but could not find it.
“The trending topic is gone. Josie muttered in shock.
“The discussion endangered Russell Group, so the public relations department managed to
remove it.”
Arnold realized what had happened. “It meant Russell Group still wanted to protect you.”
He observed her expression closely.
But Josie believed it was more than that. She would not have noticed if not for Russell
Group’s action She realized the reason Dexter insisted on hiding the matter was not to
protect her from public criticism. Instead, it was to prevent her from finding out the actual
perpetrator.
The phone suddenly vibrated in her hand. A few messages popped up.
It’s prison visitation day tomorrow. Will you be going again?”
‘Can you bring some summer clothes to your father? The weather is getting warm.”

Josie glanced at the messages and suddenly recalled she was holding Arnold’s phone. She
was surprised and quickly handed the phone to him.
“I’m sorry.”
Arnold glanced at the screen and did not seem to mind. “When we met in the north of the
city previously, I was visiting someone in prison.”
Josie frowned and suddenly understood what Dexter had said before. She mentally
calculated the days and realized it was about time for him to visit again.
“Was the person your father?”
“Yes, he was sentenced to imprisonment for twenty years.
Twenty years was a lot. Josie sipped some tea to calm her nerves before asking. “Was it a
criminal case?”
“He was charged with financial fraud. Arnold’s gaze darkened as he played with his phone.
Financial fraud cases were complicated. Moreover, for a wealthy family like Arnold’s, such
a crime would permanently ruin their reputation.
Josie did not ask other questions. She rested her chin on her hands. “Arnold, is this why
you’re against Dexter?”
Arnold was surprised and looked at her solemnly. “Do you know the whole story?”
