Dexter had an engagement at noon, at a shooting range. When Juliette arrived, he had just finished his round.

Josie followed closely behind Juliette. Lifting her gaze, she saw that he had hit the bullseye.

She knew that Dexter was also a master archer. However, that day's social engagement required him to showcase these skills, sending a clear message that he was not someone to be trifled with.
