Chapter 156

When Dexter did not come home, the servant helped Josie with her bath. It felt much less awkward than before. Apart from the occasional guilt, she was comfortable living in Mason Garden without Dexter.At night, she lay on the couch and kept typing and deleting her message for Dexter. In the end, she didn’t send anything.Suddenly, Dexter opened the door and saw her lying on the couch with her legs exposed. They were so smooth that they seemed to glow under the light.“Mr. Russell? You’re back.” The maid’s voice alerted Josie. She nearly jumped from the couch and adjusted her clothes before sitting there awkwardly.Dexter looked away and let the maid help him take off his coat.Marilyn heard noises and dashed out of the kitchen. “Dex, you finally remembered to come home!”Dexter rubbed his temple and replied, “I’ve been busy with company matters.”
