The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 142

Chapter 142 Marilyn Visiting

 

“When I saw the photos, I thought, isn’t this Jo? It gave me a fright. Why didn’t you tell me?!”

Old Mr. Russell chided Dexter angrily. He was about to go mad.

Dexter’s head hurt. He never expected this to go on the news. He explained patiently, “Grandpa, it’s not a big deal. Jo’s arm fractured, and she’s been discharged. Don’t worry. Take care of yourself.”

“That’s absolutely disgraceful! She’s your wife. You’re glossing over it even after she got into something as serious as an accident. Is a fracture no big deal? You can find out after I break your legs!” Old Mr. Russell grew furious, and he almost lost his breath. “Give the phone to Jo. I want to talk to her!”

Dexter signaled the woman beside him with a glance. She couldn’t hold the cell phone, so he put it next to her without moving.

“Are you alright, Jo? You can be honest with me.” Old Mr. Russell’s voice completely changed. It was very gentle.

Josie bit the bullet and answered, “Grandpa, it’s no big deal. The newspapers are spouting nonsense. Don’t believe them.”

“You only suffered a fracture?”

“Yes. I’ve been discharged, and I’m now going home to recuperate.”

“That’s good.” Old Mr. Russell’s voice suddenly increased in volume. “Dexter Russell.”

Dexter answered nonchalantly, “I’m here.”

“A fracture isn’t just a small matter. I’ve instructed Marilyn to go to Mason Garden to care for Jo. She should be there now. Watch out.”

When Josie heard it, she choked on her water and tried her best to keep from coughing.

Dexter wrinkled his brows. “Why did you go through great pains to ask Marilyn to come? It’s not like there aren’t servants in Mason Garden.”

Old Mr. Russell sneered. “So what? Marilyn has taken care of me for years and is very attentive. I will only be reassured if she takes care of Jo.”

“What about you?”
