After offering her respects, Josie walked to the side where many scriptures were displayed, all written by descendants of the Russell family.

She immediately spotted Dexter's handwriting, bold and distinctive.

She reached out and took the scripture. He had completed it in its entirety. It was rare to see him so focused and calm. Flipping it casually, she turned to the last page. It was dated a year ago.

Josie's lips twitched slightly, noticing there was another page. Turning it over, he found a line of text written boldly on the back: "From Leanne, penned by Dexter, a small offering to you. Josie's been quite preoccupied, I'm sure you wouldn't hold it against her. If you find the time, do visit her in your dreams occasionally. Check on her for me and see if she's doing well."

Upon seeing these words, Josie was caught off guard. A warmth spread through her eyes, and she felt a sudden urge to cry. Her emotions were so complex that they left her speechless. Dexter's a fool.
