As Dexter raised his eyebrow, Josie continued, "In this world, there are no parents who do not love their children. Ruth cares for me, and she has saved me before. If we can find a way through her, everything will become simpler."

Listening, Dexter casually played with the green ivy leaves on the windowsill. "Are you certain Mr. Dalton will be influenced by a child?"

"Why wouldn't he be? I've said it before. There are no parents in this world who do not love their children. To defeat the enemy, one must first capture their leader. Once we have control over Mr. Dalton, everything will be negotiable with Arnold."

Josie quickly finished speaking, but upon witnessing Dexter's cold gaze, she abruptly stopped. Touching her lips, she realized her mistake. "I'm sorry. I wasn't referring to you."

The more she tried to hide something, the more obvious it became, which was exactly what her sentence did.

She sighed in frustration.

Dexter couldn't help but laugh. "I didn't take it personally."

She stood still, as if she was being punished with a time-out.

Dexter continued, "Mr. Dalton is no ordinary man, capable of reaching such heights. A child couldn't possibly control him, let alone Arnold, who he may not necessarily obey." Hearing this, Josie became somewhat anxious. "What should we do then?"

"Take advantage of me."
