Chapter 1064
Upon realizing that he was only in his early twenties, Josie concluded that he must have recently
entered the profession. At such a young age, he should have a promising future and great prospects
ahead of him.
Unable to bear seeing him go astray, she kindly advised, “As designers, we must possess a sincere
heart and evesting enthusiasm. Only then can we progress further on this path. The enjoyment of
thepetition process is more important than the oue itself.”
Having said that, Josie ignored him, opened the car door, and got in.
She started the car and drove off into the distance.
After Josie had left, Lily emerged from a nearby corner. She looked at the photo on her phone with
great satisfaction, unable to hide the triumph in her eyes.
epting bribes was a major taboo for the panel of judges.
With this evidence, Josie could never defend herself.
Alice, you’re destined to be out of the game.
“Grape’s Mommy, you’re here…” As soon as Josie arrived at the daycare, the teacher took the initiative
to greet her.
“Where is Grape?”
The teacher hastily replied, “In the ssroom…”
Josie, feeling somewhat impatient, started to walk over. However, uponying her eyes on something,
she abruptly halted her steps…
Within her field of vision, Dexter was amusing himself with Grape while ying with her toys. The man
was still wearing yesterday’s clothes, and the wrinkles on his shirt were quite noticeable.
On his slightly weary face, there was a hint of joy that came from bing a father for the first time.
The interaction between the two, one adult and one child, was incredibly harmonious. It seemed as if
Grape had developed a sense of reliance on Dexter.
This scene was an image she had imagined countless times before. She could feel the genuine joy
radiating from Grape.
I must say, blood ties truly are a magical thing…
Feeling her gaze upon him, Dexter lifted his eyes. As their eyes met, the air seemed to stand still.
“Josie…”
What had to be faced couldn’t be avoided.
This time, Josie didn’t choose to evade. Instead, she pushed the door open and walked in.
“Grape…”
“Mommy.” Grape scampered toward her and promptly wrapped her arms around her mother’s thigh.
Josie’s heart softened. “Have you been well-behaved today? Did you listen to the teacher?”
Grape nodded slightly.
“Good… good… Be a good girl, Grape. You are truly splendid.”
Dexter stood to one side, his gaze solely focused on the mother and daughter. The longing he had
suppressed for two years, at this very moment, was overflowing like a flood.
“Let me take you home.”
Grape’s eyes lit up in an instant. Josie could clearly sense her anticipation… It seemed as though she
had truly overlooked her daughter’s longing for a father.
“All right.”
Upon receiving Josie’s response, Dexter breathed a sigh of relief, a glint of brightness appearing in his
eyes. Grape sneakily nced at Dexter, unable to hide the joy on her small face.

The atmosphere in the car was somewhat quiet.
Dexter was driving while Josie, holding Grape, settled into the back seat. The air was serene, and no
one spoke. Josie stared nkly out of the window.
“Mommy…” Grape handed her the toy she was holding.
Regaining her senses, Josie looked at Grape in her arms, her heart melting into a soft puddle.
The moment they arrived home, Josie, cradling Grape, was the first to get out of the car. Dexter
hurriedly followed. “Mr. Russell, enough is enough…”
Dexter let out a sigh. “I spentst night sleeping in the car. I’m quite exhausted. My neck is a bit sore,
and I’m just generally ufortable…”
Dexter’s disy of weakness was something Josie had not anticipated.
As Josie gazed at the tired expression on the man’s face, she couldn’t help but let out a sigh of
eptance. When it came to Dexter, she would always feel a sense of tenderness.
