    Chapter 404 Returning A Favor


    “Since it’s a formality, you can see if he cares for you. Jo, I know you, and I know what he must do to


    give you a sense of security.” Paul pulled her arm. “Is there an ulterior motive?”


    No matter what, Josie couldn’t be honest. “No… We’ll do itter. He’s busy recently.”


    If Summer saw them having a wedding, she would want to kill Josie.


    This was no longer concerning just the two of them. It was a power struggle.


    Josie received news from Arnold one weekter. He told her that his wedding with Eileen was


    canceled, and the debt of one billion was repaid.


    Josie didn’t know how he had done it.


    “I heard that you’re now free?” Arnold’s voice sounded rxed on the phone.


    Josie quickly understood what he meant. “I’m not in a rush to work.”


    “Help me do something since I saved you once.”


    Josie was dumbstruck.


    He wanted her to help Carter Group close a project. There waspetitive bidding on a new area in


    Wavery.


    “Don’t worry. I’m not Russell Group’spetitor this time,” Arnold said half–teasingly, but he was


    considerate.


    Josie was relieved. Ultimately, she asked, “How did you save Carter Group?”


    “Dexter and I have information on each other.” Arnold avoided her question. His voice was cold. “Josie,


    he can neverpletely defeat me. No matter how many times he tries, neither side will win.”


    His animosity was apparent. Josie thought of his father and didn’t ask further.


    She stayed upte daily to work to prepare the tender document for him because of the favor she owed


    him.


    Dexter didn’t ask much when he saw her suddenly getting busy. She wasn’t sure if he knew that Carter


    Group was participating in thepetitive bidding. Still, she didn’t n to say anything before he


    asked.


    After a few days, Dexter returned to Mason Garden at eleven at night. He looked for her in the master


    bedroom and the study room but didn’t see Josie.


    He asked the servants, “Is Josie back yet?”


    “Not yet. Maybe she’s still with her father.”


    Just as Dexter was about to drive out to look for her, Mason Garden’s doors were opened. Josie was


    back with a pile of documents.


    Her first reaction was to frown when she saw him. After that, she recalled that he seemed to have


    called her at noon and told her he would return to Mason Garden tonight.


    She was so busy that she forgot.


    He was still in a suit, so he must not have returned too long ago.


    Josie opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, she lost control of the documents in her


    hands, and they fell to the floor.


    The man’s hands appeared in her view. Dexter crouched down and helped pick up her documents


    before pulling her up. “Why did you bring work home?”


    Josie was slightly nervous. “… I’ve been a little busy recently.”

    Dexter didn’t push, and she quickly finished her work.


    Josie tried her best to focus on work! When she finished thest word, a steaming te ofsagna was


    beside her.


    When she looked up, she saw Dexter’smanding gaze. “Finish it.”


    A servant poured a ss of water for Josie.


    Dexter watched her eat. Perhaps she was famished. Her cheeks puffed up like a chipmunk, and her


    eyes were/bright.


    A subtle smile was in the corners of the man’s mouth.


    Such a harmonious air was unreal to both of them. It was as though nothing had happened, and they


    were just an ordinary couple.
