From the moment they met, up until the time she saw the child off into the car, Josie didn't utter a single word throughout.
That wasn't quite right because she did say something to Moses. “Be careful on the road,” she said.
With a smile, Moses responded, “After all these years, do you still not trust my driving skills, Josie?”
After that, Josie closed the car door and walked back to the hospital.
Suddenly, her arm was seized. The man's strength was overpowering. He stood firm in his spot and asked, “What's wrong?”
He could discern her emotions with just a single glance.
“Let go of me.”
His grip tightened. “What's really going on? You weren't like this in the afternoon. What happened?”
At this point in the conversation, Josie didn't want to hide anything anymore. She turned around to face him directly. “Why didn't you tell me about the incident a month ago in Rivodia, where someone kidnapped Grape?”
Prior to that, it was rather well hidden.
For this reason, Dexter's expression eased momentarily before he said straightforwardly, “At that time, you were being held hostage by Arnold, and Mr. Dalton used Grape to hinder me. You had just returned to Wavery, and there were more important matters you needed to handle. It wasn't a bad thing for me to step in and solve it.”
Josie was agitated. “So that's why you abruptly left Wavery back then. What about me? I'm her mother. If anything were to happen to her, how would I cope?”
“She's okay now.”
“What I'm talking about is hypothetical, Dexter. Have you ever thought about me? I don't need you to act under the guise of what's best for me, doing things you presume to be right. It was like this two years ago, and it's still the same two years later.”
He only had her best interests at heart, yet she showed no appreciation.
Dexter released her. “Grape is my daughter. Her troubles cause me equal distress and worry. If I could choose, I would still opt to hide it. At least you wouldn't have to bear half of the worry.”
Unreasonable! Josie was trembling with anger, not wanting to argue any further. “I don't want something like this to happen again,” she said.
“There won't be a second time.”
