Chapter 830 He Did It

Suddenly, a figure blocked Josie’s prying gaze. It was Zach. “Ms. Warren, you’ve dropped

Laura off. You can leave now,” he said coldly, his voice filled with disdain for her.

Josie remained unfazed. “Laura hasn’t asked me to leave yet. Why are you being so

presumptuous?”

Her underlying message carried a hint of mockery. Laura held considerable influence now,

and Zach no longer dared to mistreat her as he once did. In fact, he seemed somewhat

apprehensive of her.

“You!”

“Zach.” Dexter’s voice interrupted the tension. He lightly tapped Heather and said, “You

siblings should have a chat.”

After saying that, he stepped forward, his intention quite clear.

Zach was indeed wary of him. After struggling for a while, he still took a step back, turning

around with a face full of disgust.

Heather frowned with worry. “Dex…”

Nevertheless, the man remained calm and composed. He gestured for her to remain quiet

and closed the door behind him, shutting out the prying eyes from the room. In the

hallway, only Dexter and Josie remained.

Dexter’s calm gaze felt more intense than the effects of alcohol and smoke in the air.

Josie craned her head to meet his eyes. “You did this, didn’t you?”

Dexter stayed silent, but he took her wrist and led her upstairs. It was only when they

reached the rooftop that he released her wrist and spoke. “Summer’s actions were her

own doing; I couldn’t control her.”

In the past few minutes, Josie had pieced together the situation. She rotated her bruised

wrist and remarked, “You were aware that Summer was involved in the photo incident.

After returning to Wavery, a series of scandals involving her surfaced, enraging Mark and

leading to this situation. How is this not revenge?”

Her words were filled with seriousness, and the sunlight cast an amber hue in her eyes.

Dexter listened attentively before breaking into laughter. “What’s the point of seeking

revenge? We’re already divorced.”

The word “divorce” stiffened Josie. Indeed, they were divorced.

She shifted slightly and said, “Who said it had to be for my sake? Summer has severely

harmed the Russell Group, and by extension, your reputation has suffered. Seeking

revenge for yourself would be entirely reasonable.”

Dexter tilted her chin up, his other hand lightly resting on her shoulder as he leaned in.

“Even if that were true, I wouldn’t have expected Summer to stoop this low.”

Indeed, that part didn’t make sense, but in a flash, Josie remembered the doctor

mentioning Summer’s claustrophobia. She furrowed her brows. “Did you do something to

her?”

As Josie watched, Dexter’s lips curled into a smile, a smile that was almost chilling.

“You’ve become smarter, Jo.”

“You!” Josie was incredulous, and her pupils were slightly dilated.

It’s Summer we’re talking about. The means to make her claustrophobic must be beyond

imagination. And this man in front of me, he always has countless ways to torment people.

“I didn’t share her photos; that’s already me being as merciful as I can be.” Dexter’s

expression gradually turned cold, resembling a venomous snake in the summer heat.

Josie shivered despite the sun being at its zenith. “Is this what you consider a ‘gift”?”

Dexter seemed puzzled. “Not satisfied? Well, there’s another gift. That guy’s currently

under investigation. by the Securities Regulatory Commission, but it appears he’ll return

soon.”

Josie furrowed her brows deeply. She certainly wanted to retaliate against Summer,

especially after the damage to her reputation. However, she hadn’t anticipated Dexter’s

approach to be so ruthless, striking. without spilling blood.

“An eye for an eye,” seemed to perfectly describe Dexter’s actions, with no room for

deviation.

He let out a soft sigh, prompting Josie to look up at him. “I went to great lengths to

prepare a gift for you, and yet you won’t behave.”
