Chapter 93 Her Face is Valuable
Dexter washed up and sat in a chair by the bed. He rested his elbows on his legs and hunched while thinking about something. At the same time, his face was shrouded with a shadow, making his expression
unclear.
Josie was still asleep from the effects of anesthesia. Her lips were pale, and her face covered with bandages. She looked defenseless.
He looked at her for a long time until his phone rang in his pants pocket. He let it ring for some time before heading to the balcony to answer it
Josie slept through the night. The effects of the anesthesia finally wore off the following day. She opened her eyes and found Julie looking at her worriedly.
“Mrs. Russell, you’re finally awake. I’ve prepared some beetroot soup. It’s good for recovering from blood loss. You should eat it while it is still warm” Julie was glad Josie woke up and brought her a warm bowl of
soup
Josie shook her head. “Wasn’t I in the hospital?” Why am I in Mason Garden?
“Mr. Russell brought you home this morning.”
Josie touched her face and felt the bandages. “Where is he?”
“Mr. Russell is in the study with a guest.”
Josie’s mind was still foggy. She got off the bed and looked at herself in the mirror. The bandages covered half of her face and looked ugly on her. She remembered Mr. Lane left a long wound on her face.
“Mrs. Russell, don’t worry. The doctor said your wound is not too deep and will heal soon. It won’t leave a
scar.”
“But my skin scars easily,” Josie said sadly. I bruise easily whenever I bump into anything. It would take nearly half a month to heal. This wound will take even longer.
Moreover, no man will want me if my face is disfigured.
Josie slumped to the floor in despair. It’s all Justin’s fault. I got myself disfigured to save his useless a*s! I wouldn’t have helped him if I knew this would happen!
Josie felt agitated as she thought about Justin. No, I must look for Dexter.
