After Josie left work, she received a text message from Nicole while waiting for the bus at the bus stop.
Her suspended heart finally settled, and she looked down as she replied, ‘It’s fine as long as you’re safe.’
She didn’t know why but the bus today seemed slightly late. She had been waiting for a long time, but it didn’t come. There was a heavy laptop bag in her arms, and she felt like she would fall asleep if she shut her eyes.
At this time, Josie woke up with a start after hearing the sound of a horn. She shivered and saw a Rolls-Royce stop in front of her. The driver rolled down the windows and smiled politely. “We meet again, Ms. Warren.”
Josie’s heart tightened. She immediately looked around to see if there were any Russell Group employees. At this time, the car door opened automatically. It was different from the subtle Porsche this morning. This car seemed very flamboyant.
She got into the car quickly and ensured no one saw her.
In the spacious car seat, Dexter was working on his laptop. His expression was serious and impatient.
“It would be great if you could keep your guard up like this against strangers.”
Josie was dumbfounded. She didn’t know how to face Dexter but felt much more relaxed after he called her out.
After a while, Dexter closed his laptop. She plucked up her courage and asked, “Are you done with work?”
Dexter looked at her from the side.
“It’s nothing. It’s just that Nicole sent me a text message saying that she’s reached.” He was also a part of it. It was only natural to tell him about the progress.
Dexter was confused. “What does she have to do with me?”
“But you helped her.”
“It’s because you were meddlesome.”
