Chapter 489 Fight for What You Want
“Of course.” It was so firm that he didn’t know what to do.
After sitting there for a while, it was as though the two didn’t know what to talk about. Josie felt slightly uneasy. She clearly never felt this way when she was with him in the past.
She rose and wanted to leave, but Arnold reached out to stop her. He raised his head and said, “Sit with me a little longer.
Josie looked at him as she towered above him. At that moment, the moon was reflected in his eyes, and she saw infinite loneliness and desolation in them. Her heart softened, and she smiled. “Are you a puppy, Arnold?”
He looked like one from that angle.
Arnold didn’t get angry. He answered, “Mm. I am.”
It was rare for him to show such weakness. Josie suddenly understood why he could attract so many women. Who would be able to take it?
She patted his head. “Why? Were you unhappy today?”
When have I ever been happy with your husband around?”
Josie laughed unkindly. When she looked up again, the private room door was open. The first to come out was the overbearing Mr. Matton, who seemed unhappy. He was followed by Dexter. Larry was holding Dexter’s jacket and handed it to him.
Dexter looked up, and Josie immediately pulled her hand back. She kept her distance from Arnold and was slightly cautious.
Arnold composed himself and stood up. “Has it ended so soon, Dexter?”
Heather was the last to come out. She was startled to see Josie’s figure.
And Josie never imagined that the assistant seemed so familiar to her. It was as though they had previously met.
Dexter only looked at Josie. He answered, “Mm. Come here.”
Josie walked to him. Heather also walked to Arnold at this time, and the two brushed past each other. They looked at each other with fleeting confusion and familiarity.
“You talked for so long?” Josie walked to Dexter’s side and naturally lifted his arm.
“Mm. Why did you come out?”
Dexter took his coat from Larry and put it around Josie.
“I was too bored in the room…”
The two walked out side by side, looking exceptionally well-matched.
Heather stopped and looked at their figures as they walked further away. She pursed her lips silently, and Arnold walked to her side. “If you want it, fight for it.”
In Dexter’s car, Josie leaned against him and smiled, trying to curry favor with him. “You aren’t angry, are you?”
The man played with her hair with his fingers. He knew well but asked, “Why would I be angry?”
“Oh… Then I should be the one to get angry.” She drew out her voice. “You meet many good women during social engagements, don’t you?”
It was a peculiar question. Dexter smiled lightly and loosened his grip. “Stop it.”
Josie stopped teasing him. She was exhausted from the whole day. At that moment, she hugged his arm and shut her eyes peacefully.
Dexter looked down at her silent face and said, “I turned down a backdoor method today. Perhaps public opinion will erupt over the next few days. I’ll be swamped.”
Josie opened her eyes and was solemn. “If you think this is the correct decision, do it.”
Dexter smiled, and he caressed her hair. “Go to sleep.”
The work studio’s projects were advancing steadily. Although Laura rarely came, Josie could tell Laura looked much better.
“I’ve met the psychologist you recommended. He’s pretty good. Thank you.” Laura had taken her advice.
Josie was happy when she heard it. “That’s great. It’s good that the doctor helps.”
“I have something to tell you.”
