Chapter 283 Always Keeping Watch for Him
“But I’m not others,” she said quickly.
“You’ve already found out.”
Josie was flabbergasted.
After a brief silence, Old Mr. Russell put his teacup down. “Fifty percent. She’s swift and decisive when working and reaches her goals by any means necessary. She’s trustworthy at work, but don’t trust her too much for personal matters.”
Josie was silent. She didn’t understand at all. No matter what, Dexter was Xanthe’s flesh and blood. They were mother and son. How could she not love him?
“Jo, you’re the only person Dex can trust right now. You should never hold him back.”
Josie nodded. “I understand.”
After she went home, she immediately contacted Mrs. Langman, asking her out for afternoon tea.
“I only found out after going home that Mr. Langman’s social engagement yesterday was related to Russell Group. Therefore, Dexter told me I must entertain you well, Mrs. Langman. It was my oversight.” Josie flattered her.
“Russell Group?” Mrs. Langman was perplexed.
“Yes. Don’t you know? Ms. Quorn works with Russell Group. We’re preparing for e-commerce in the spring.” Josie handed Mrs. Langman a document. It was left behind from when she previously researched. with Wyatt.
Mrs. Langman didn’t understand. She believed Josie after skimming the document. “I see. What a coincidence.”
“That’s right,” Josie said with a smile, “however… I asked you out today because I have something important to ask of you.”
She pretended to feel awkward, and it piqued Mrs. Langman’s curiosity. “What is it?
“I don’t like to gossip, but Ms. Quorn from yesterday is different in private. I feel like I had to warn you. Mrs. Langman.”
Mrs. Langman was astonished when she heard it. “She’s different in private? What does that mean? From what I saw, she was guarded and carried herself well.”
