Chapter 946


    Josie overheard Heather asking, “I’ve arranged to go look at wedding dresses this afternoon. Will you


    come with me, Dex?”


    Dexter responded with a light and indifferent tone, “The true significance of a wedding dress is only


    appreciated at the wedding.”


    Heather was taken aback by his response, but maintained her lively tone as she said, “Well, after I try


    on the dresses, I’ll take some detailed photos for you. The rest will remain a mystery.”


    Dexter nodded, neither approving nor disapproving.


    He then asked, “How is everything at home? Is there anything you need help with?”


    In an intimate rtionship, getting involved in each other’s family affairs could be seen as the epitome


    of closeness.


    Josie remembered the times when Paul was still around. Dexter had joined her in visiting and even


    cooked for them. His care and attention to detail were truly remarkable.


    It was only now that Josie realized the pain of seeing him be someone else’s man.


    “Everything is fine. Laura is managing the business, so Father doesn’t need to worry too much. Mother


    is also taking good care of him. Oh, and Sum is undergoing psychological therapy.”


    It seemed like everything was going well.


    Josie neatly organized the documents and found a note at the bottom. It read: “All information about


    Arnold has beenpletely sealed off. It will not affect the wedding on the 15th.”


    Heather patiently waited for Dexter to finish his work. Together, they left Russell Group and headed


    directly to the Olsen Residence to visit their elders.


    This was how a newlywed couple, immersed in sweet romance, was supposed to be.


    The Olsen Residence had a signal jammer, making it difficult for Josie to continue eavesdropping with


    rity.


    So, she simply shut down herputer andy down on the bed to sleep.


    Soon, she was awakened by a series of urgent knocks on the door, apanied by Julie’s voice.


    “Mrs. Russell. Mrs. Russell.”


    Squinting her eyes, Josie was puzzled about her visitor when she opened the door and was surprised


    to see Julie, whom she hadn’t seen in a long time. “It’s you.”


    With a bowl of steaming hot soup in her hands, Julie smiled and said, “Mr. Russell mentioned your


    return and specially requested me toe back to Mason Garden to take care of you.”


    Surprised, Josie thought that Julie might have misunderstood. “Um… But I’ll only be staying for a few


    days.”


    Not to mention I was forced to stay here…


    However, Julie didn’t seem to mind. “Regardless of how many days, it’s always good to have you


    back.”


    Seated at the dining table in the downstairs hall, Josie savored each sip of the heartwarming soup. The


    nostalgic taste was truly something she had missed.


    Julie continued, sharing, “Josie, Mr. Russell was concerned that you might not like the chef’s dishes, so


    he brought me back. He’s very thoughtful.”


    As she spoke, she deliberately observed Josie’s expression.


    Josie remained calm and reminded her, “Julie, we’re already divorced. It’s not appropriate for you to


    call me ‘Mrs. Russell’ anymore.”


    Julie caught on and chuckled. “Oh, silly me. I’ve been calling you that for so long that it’s hard for me to


    break the habit.”


    “It’s okay.”


    Just then, a ck car pulled up, signaling Dexter’s return.


    Josie identally dropped her spoon, causing it to clink against the rim of the bowl, producing a crisp


    sound.

    Dexter entered the room with a chilly aura, radiating an air of aloofness. His demeanor was icy and


    detached, making him stand out in stark contrast to the warmth of the room.


    Casting a nce in Josie’s direction, he noticed she was even quieter than she had been yesterday.


    Julie stepped forward to take his coat and greeted, “Mr. Russell.”


    “What’s with the attitude?” He approached Josie and lifted her chin in a somewhat impolite manner, as


    if he were yfully engaging with a small dog.


    Josie found it surprising that he didn’t stay over at the Olsen Residence. Brushing away his hand with


    composure, she quipped, “Mr. Russell, it seems like you have quite a bit of free time. Could it be that


    your lovely wife finds you a bit dull and prefers not to be by your side?”


    Dexter had no interest in hearing a single word of what she was saying.


    He simply immersed himself in his meal after Julie brought him a serving of the same food, showcasing


    his consistently elegant eating style that was always a sight to behold.
