Josie Forced herself to remain calm 

Why do you wear a mask Mark asked a seemingly unrelated question 

Josie’s heart trembled nervously. I have a cold and don’t want to spread it to anyone 

Mark looked away and put down the wine glass. Since you have a cold, you should go out now. You don’t have to come back anymore. 

Josse tried to say something but stopped herself. She had more things to say but realized on second thought that she had talked long enough. Thus, she nodded and left the room. 

She breathed in the fresh air and calmed down. When she looked up, she was surprised to see Arnold. He had been standing outside all this while. 

“What’s wrong?” 

“Mark discovered me.” 

Arnold nodded and took off her mask. “Let’s leave here first.” 

Josie was still covered in cold sweat. She waited until they entered the elevator, asking. “Why didn’t you leave?” 

“I was worried that they might kill you.” He was not joking. These people did terrible things as you Josie recalled Mark’s expression. Tm afraid some of my words have gotten to them. Arnold 

No matter the outcome, what she did was damaging to his interest. 

Arnold looked at Josie’s reflection in the elevator mirror. “It’s not your first time apologizing to me Furthermore, how sure are you that they would listen to you?” 

I have confidence.” 

She was not confident about herself but in Dexter’s track record through the years. Those businessmen were still wary of him. Thus, her half-truths were effective against them 

You look quite nice in these clothes. There’s something appealing about uniforms Arnold’s voice was low and charming as he patted her head. 

The elevator door opened. 

Josie felt hot all over her body Her discomfort grew as Arnold looked at her, instinctively prompting her to push him away. “Tm taking a bath 

Her tension melted away once she soaked her body in the warm water. She recalled what Amold seld and grew flustered as she thought about it. She even noticed how warm het cheeks became 

Why wat he willing to help me unconditionally? Perhaps… 

She smacked her face. “Josie, what are you thinking?” 

To her surprise, Arnold was still in the room when she walked out of the bathroom with a towel around her body. He sat on the floor quietly, playing a game. Josie instinctively tightened her towel around herself, ensuring it covered her properly. 

“Why are you still here?” 

Arnold sensed her approaching him. He did not look up but continued to focus on the game Josie watched him play. Her hair brushed his wrist as she looked down. 

Her hair stands were damp and felt ticklish on his skin. 

“Is it wrong for me to enter my room?” 

Josie had nothing to say. 

Then, Arnold sighed and ended the game beautifully. Then, he snatched the towel from her hand and pulled open a nearby drawer without a word. There was a hair dryer inside. 

He plugged it in and used it to blow dry Josie’s hair. 

Josie stiffened and felt the gentle warm air on her hair. “What are you doing?”
