Chapter 683 Meeting Liana
Suddenly, a voice sounded outside. It was Henry’s voice. “Let’s hurry up.”
Josie looked through the gauze-curtained window and saw two figures walking in a hurry. They walked past Josie’s room and pushed open the door in the neighboring room. Josie instantly understood why Mallory had brought her here and was surprised. “How did
know…”

“Dexter would not choose this place to meet someone without a good reason, so I thought it must be important. Furthermore, when I met you, I could see that didn’t want to be recognized.”

Mallory was astute and guessed the gist of things after connecting the dots.
Josie laughed at herself. “Thank you.”
But Mallory looked away. “I brought you here only because you needed a secluded place to meet a confidential client. I have no idea that Dexter is next door.”
Josie understood and replied, “Yes, you don’t know anything.”
Satisfied with her response, Mallory turned around to leave. However, when Mallory reached. the door, Josie could not resist asking, “Why did you help me?”
Mallory helped Josie tremendously in the few times they met. She considered before replying, “Perhaps it’s because our situations are too similar.”
Once the door closed, Josie waited for a moment before stepping out. She stopped stealthily outside Dexter’s room and vaguely saw the people inside. There were around three people. Dexter and Henry sat on one side, facing a woman with a slender figure.
The woman looked young.
She raised her hand to pour a cup of tea. Her gestures were as graceful as a swan.
Unfortunately, the room was soundproofed, so Josie could not hear what they discussed.
Josie saw Henry holding the young woman’s hand and roughly understood what was happening.
This young woman was most probably Liana.
From what Josie knew about the past, Henry cared about Liana as if she was his granddaughter. Thus, it was understandable that he would want to see her now that she returned.
