Chapter 542 Revealing Mrs Russell
Summer knew Josie was trapped.
The people around them started to buzz with gossip. “There’s a thief…”
“What a disgrace….
“How dare she steal Summer’s item..”
Every word they said felt like a weight crushing her chest. She couldn’t look at Dexter, whose eyes were full of longing.
A crowd of people started to form, drawn to the commotion. Claudia and Mark finally showed up, having been alerted to the situation. Their brows furrowed as they took in the scene before them.
“It’s certainly interesting to catch a thief on her birthday.” Zach was ready to leave his seat when Arnold stopped him. His voice was even and controlled as he inquired, “Why are you so eager to leave? Do you have something important to attend to?”
Zach drew his eyebrows together into a tight knot as he stood frozen in his tracks.
The cap belonged to Arnold, and Summer just happened to notice the flower that was drawn behind it.
As the reporters raised their cameras, Josie finally spoke up. “Ms. Olsen, I didn’t steal your cap,” she asserted.
“Why are you trying to deny it when the evidence is clear as day?” Summer chuckled indifferently. “If you didn’t steal it, show me your invitation. Do you even have one? What are you doing here dressed like that?”
Her eyes fell on Andy, who was left dumbfounded, unable to utter a single word in Josie’s defense.
A calm and firm voice rang out, “She came to find me. The gossip and chatter surrounding them quickly came to a pause as everyone stood still, stunned to hear Dexter speak out.
Josie’s eyes widened in surprise as she looked up at the man before her.
Unwilling to accept the absurdity of his intervention, Summer grabbed the cuff of his shirt, trying to signal him to stop.
Dexter ignored her. He marched over to Josie and announced, “She came here to find me. Is there a problem with that?”
Everyone’s mouths dropped open in shock. They couldn’t believe what they were hearing.
Even Claudia and Mark exchanged curious glances. They were startled by the scene that was unfolding before them.
Arnold gripped Zach’s hand tightly, with his veins popping from his neck. His eyes were blazing red with
anger.
