Chapter 210 Hemorrhage
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Back at Mason Garden, she took a hot bath first. Her mind was filled with scenes of Arnold’s carefree boyishness. She couldn’t help but think of someone. She shook her head. Certain people kept appearing. in her mind. She was really in a muddle.
It was still carly, and it wasn’t twelve yet. Josie didn’t have good vision at night. She casually grabbed a pair of Dexter’s daily use glasses from the bedroom before secretly slipping into the kitchen to make something.
Dexter had just messaged her to say he was about to reach home.
When Josie was in the process of making it, the noise of a car was heard outside. She rushed out of the kitchen, and the fatigued man was just entering the house. He was in a black trench coat and looked
exhausted.
The man looked up and saw Josie wearing his glasses. The corners of his mouth curved, and a smile appeared on his indifferent face. He walked to her and took it off her face. “Why are you wearing my glasses?”
“I took it since they were there.” Josie rubbed her eyes and asked, “How is the employee?”
“A rock fell on him while he was supervising, and he had a hemorrhage. He’s out of danger now.”
“A hemorrhage?” Josie was startled. How could he be okay if he had a hemorrhage?
“The blood didn’t gush out, did it?” Public opinion would be tough on such an accident on the construction site.
Dexter subconsciously patted her head. “Don’t worry. I’ll deal with it.”
After that, he saw coffee powder on her hands. “What are you doing?”
“I’m making tiramisu. It’s nice to have tiramisu on a day like this.” She looked up and smiled sweetly at
him.
Dexter seemed to understand. He pulled her hand and walked to the kitchen. His smile deepened when he saw her progress. “Let’s do it together?”
“Sure.” Josie was delighted.
He washed his hands and folded his sleeves to his elbow. He started dipping the ladyfingers into the coffee. Josie wanted to help, but he stopped her. “Just watch me.
Josie wanted to say she knew how to make tiramisu too.
But it was evident that Dexter was skillful. After spreading the mascarpone cream on the ladyfingers, he touched Josie’s face with his coffee-soaked fingers. “There’s a coin in my pocket. Help me take it out.”
Josie wiped the cream off his face and stared at him. She knew what he wanted to do. “You’re superstitious?”
“Occasionally”
It was lucky to find a penny in the tiramisu.
Josie did this annually with the Warren family. Josie’s mom usually only hid one coin in the tiramisu and made it obvious. When cutting the cake, her mom put it on Justin’s plate. Therefore, Justin always found the lucky penny every year.
Over time, Josie stopped looking forward to getting the coin.
They put it into the fridge and let it chill for a while.
However, Dexter didn’t make it obvious. In the end, he found the penny while eating. At that moment. Dexter was both amused and annoyed. He didn’t understand how he was so lucky.
Josie suppressed her laughter. To be honest, Dexter’s tiramisu wasn’t as fancy as the pasta restaurant’s, but she had a big appetite and ate two servings.
After eating so much, she was distressed. “I want to go on a walk to aid my digestion.”
Dexter was putting the plates on the kitchen counter. He turned her down without looking up. cold. No way.”
“It’s too
Josie did not utter a word.
Dexter raised his head when he felt her emotions. His wet hands touched her face again, and he suddenly approached her. “It’s not that you can’t do anything to aid your digestion. Let’s do something else?”
Josie understood what he meant in a split second. Before she could run, the man forcefully trapped her in his arms and kissed her.
She was forced to accept it.
The two were intertwined as they gasped ruggedly.
