Chapter 443 Starting a Studio Together

Andy was surprised. “Mr. Carter, with all due respect, with Josie’s identity now, she’s

useful, but not in this.”

Arnold poured out a glass of wine. His expression made it difficult to see if he agreed. “I

know what to do.”

“Several of our projects are under Mark Olsen. He has plans to hinder Russell Group’s

development. Besides, he’s showing us favor now. Summer is our best option at this

moment.” Andy continued.

“I’m still unsure what’s on that old man’s mind. Let’s wait and see. Arnold paused. “Make

an appointment with Summer for me tonight. We’ll meet at Sky Palace.”

“Yes, sir.”

Andy turned to leave, but Arnold called out. “Did Josie go for the interview?”

“No, sir. She requested an extension when the incident with Eileen Shaw happened.”

“Keep a close eye on them.”

Josie did not go to the design company that had extended an olive branch to her. The first

reason was that her body forced her to put it on hold. The second reason was that Laura

suddenly came to her and invited her to start a studio together.

“I took some time recently to observe your design styles. Although they are completely

different from mine, the aura it brings fascinates me.” Laura was still acting like a diva,

although she was the one making a request.

Josie flipped through the document Laura brought. She was very interested but had some

concerns. “You’re married into the Olsen family. Will they allow you to appear in the

limelight?”

Laura’s expression turned unnatural when the family was mentioned. “They hardly care

about Zach, much less me. I’ve been saving up this money for a long time. I didn’t use any

of it to have my own business one day. This could be greater if my family didn’t go

bankrupt.”

Josie believed that Laura had skills. “Why did you choose me?”

“You’re affordable and useful.”

Josie did not know if she should laugh or cry at her blunt words. “What I mean is that I’m

in a tight spot. Are you not worried about the backlash you’ll get if you work with me?”

Laura averted her eyes. She knew that Josie was referring to Summer. “She’s been

unhappy with me many times before. This does not make any difference.”

Josie contemplated. She was interested. Laura would oversee the funds, and she would

provide the skills. Laura even promised to give her half the dividends of the studio. They

would both be owners. It was far better than being a corporate slave.

“There’s not many that I can trust nowadays. I’ve never imagined you would be one of

them.” As Laura said those words, her voice was cold.

“It’s my honor.” Josie put the documents back in order. “Give me two days to think about

it. I’ll give you my answer as soon as possible.”

Toward the end of their discussion, Laura sipped the cup of coffee the servants had

prepared. She observed the house. The well-kept space felt like home.

“Dexter treats you well,” she said matter-of-factly.

“Only the one who’s involved would know the truth.”

Josie stared at the scar on her wrist. She hesitated but did not ask the question.

“It looks like someone’s dream is going to shatter.” Laura smiled and got up to leave. But

when she raised her head, a man was coming toward them.

The tall, slim body was in a white shirt. The man was rolling up his sleeve as he headed

toward them against the light. “Laura.”

“I see you’re here, Mr. Russell.”

He hummed in reply but turned to Josie with a questioning look.

“Laura’s here to discuss work. I’m sending her out.” Josie began heading out, but the man

held her arm as she walked by.

“Wait. There’s some soot on your forehead.” Pulling her nearer naturally, he cupped her

head and gently cleaned the spot. The tender look in his eyes was not something one

could pretend to have.
