Chapter 721 Fancy Becoming Mrs Carter?
Dexter reclined slowly as if sighing. “You’re correct. He does care about you a lot.”
The rain painted streaks on the car windows, the outside lights gleamed in the darkness, and an older mant with a crutch stood patiently at the doorstep.
“Otherwise, he wouldn’t be waiting specifically for you on a raining night like this.”
Moses stepped out of the car with an umbrella, opening the door for her. “Ms. Olsen, we’ve reached your
home.”
At that moment, Leanne realized they had arrived at the Olsen Residence.
Josie tried to stand up, but her knees wavered, and she stumbled into Dexter’s arms. The sight of them embracing caught Mark’s attention.
Dexter lifted his gaze slightly, his tone carrying more weight, “You better go in now. Your father must be very worried about you.”“
The car pulled away swiftly, unfazed by the pouring rain.
“Mr. Russell, where to now?” Moses inquired.
Dexter again secured his rosary around his wrist, “Back to Mason Garden.“
Half an hour later, they arrived at Mason Garden.
The main bedroom’s light was illuminated.
The rain had dampened the cuffs of Dexter’s clothes. He pushed open the door and entered, spotting the woman who had just emerged from the bath.
Their eyes met, and in a split second, she seized a cushion from the sofa and flung it at him.
Unsatisfied with the cushion, she grabbed a table lamp and launched it in his direction.
Dexter didn’t dodge; his demeanor was calm and relaxed.
As Josie’s barrage of items ended, she slumped onto the couch, breathing heavily. Then, he bent down, retrieving the table lamp and setting it back in place.
“Feeling better now?”
Turning her body away, Josie refused to engage with him.
“Are you willing to listen now?”
Josie wanted to leave the bedroom, but Dexter caught her wrist.
“You’re really something, you know? Took Arnold’s wine and slept with him. I haven’t even brought this up yet”
Dexter sat down, tugging her to sit beside him.
“I didn’t sleep with anyone! Stop making baseless accusations.” Josie’s agitation was palpable.

Dexter ignited another cigarette, his gaze on her softening, turmoil simmering.
