Chapter 266 You Owe Me a Favor

Dexter gave a presentation on the research being carried out by the Russell Group to a packed function room of media personnel and company executives.

With free time on her hands, Josie accompanied Alice to the thirty-second floor of the building to watch the event.

She saw many familiar faces there.

Among the crowds, she spotted the main character of the day. Dexter, a man with a respectable and noble demeanor, stood out from the rest. His eyes were sharp and watchful, and the corner of his lips curled up in a forceful smile.

“Have you seen the rumors about Mr. Russell living together with a woman? Remember? The one that looks like you? I’m so jealous of her. What does it feel like to be loved and cared for by Dexter Russell?”

Josie felt a wave of unease wash over her. Loved and cared for? Not by him. He only knew how to torture her.

Josie watched from the sidelines as Dexter confidently answered the media’s questions. He used highly professional language to highlight his intelligence and wit as he stood under the spotlight.

Dexter’s outstanding presentation had Josie spellbound. She was brought back to reality by the thunderous applause of the crowd. She clapped along with them, a corner of her lips lifting in a smile of admiration.
