Chapter 230 Leaked Information
Josie’s eyelids throbbed. She felt a persistent panic and wondered if it was because she was nearly assaulted.
She let Dexter comfort her before leaning into his embrace. She still could not speak. However, she sensed Dexter’s patience running thin during the prolonged silence and said, “The hotel layout has to be changed”
She was traumatized by the feeling of isolation and helplessness.

Her emotions were a mess.

Dexter was now gentle and caring as she remembered. However, he was so cold and cruel the days that he was a completely different person. She could not understand how someone could have such contrasting behaviors.
