Chapter 490 A Crisis of Confidence
Josie saw that her expression was strange, and her heart sank. She subconsciously lowered her voice. “What happened?”
“Summer quit her job in Vaste. She returned to Mark’s side to learn about family affairs.” Laura asked earnestly, “Does this have anything to do with you?”
Josie furrowed her brows. She thought of the last time she had parted on bad terms with Summer and didn’t think anything was out of the ordinary. “I don’t think so. Isn’t it normal for her to learn these things as the successor of the Olsen family?”
Laura snorted coldly. “The main point is that she previously didn’t want to take over the family business. Her personality suddenly changed. It’s strange.”
Josie patted Laura’s shoulder. She didn’t overthink it. “After all, that’s her prerogative.”
Laura thought it made sense and didn’t say anything else.
After that day. Dexter spent most of his time at Russell Group. Josie hadn’t seen him in a few days, and she specially made chicken soup for him but was stuck at an intersection.
She faintly saw a long line of cars in front. There seemed to be many people gathered in front of Russell Group in broad daylight, and it was a lively scene.
She didn’t understand. Did something happen at the front?
Josie held her cell phone as she got down to investigate. She took a few steps forward and bumped into the traffic police on duty. “You don’t have to look, miss. Traffic is at a gridlock, and no one can move. Change your route.”
Josie smiled at him. “It’s alright. My destination is up ahead.”
She held the thermos cup and quickly walked over. Her petite figure was quite conspicuous.
At this time, her cell phone was flooded with news. It vibrated incessantly. Josie looked down at it and was surprised to see her Twitter and WhatsApp app with the ’99-‘ notification. What had happened?
She stopped walking and shrewdly caught a glimpse of the word ‘breaking’ in one of the news. ‘Russell Group met with a crisis of confidence.
Josie stood on the spot, startled.
She scrolled down, and almost all the news was regarding Russell Group. They were reporting that there was a collapse at Landon’s project.
Josie’s blood froze.
She continued scrolling with a trembling hand. Thankfully, she hadn’t seen any fatalities yet.
No one had died, but the project quality was a big problem. No wonder it was reported as a crisis of confidence.
She stood frozen at the spot. She was utterly shocked by the real-time news.
At this time, one of the reporters downstairs at Russell Group had a sharp eye and noticed a small figure
who stood in a daze on the spot. They immediately cried out, “A Russell Group employee!”
Josie suddenly raised her head. Her collarbone was beautiful as her breathing increased.
She had nowhere to run.
Cameras were pointed at her.
She was assaulted with all sorts of baffling questions.
She stood startled and at a loss as she was surrounded by reporters.
The reporters’ constant questions made her ears buzz. Josie breathed slowly and forced herself to calm down and listen carefully. When she understood it, her expression changed gradually.
Tm not a Russell Group employee, but I trust in Russell Group. If they made a mistake, they will take responsibility.”
On the top floor of Carter Group, Arnold turned off the television. He shut his eyes and massaged the bridge of his nose.
Josie’s thin and weak figure lingered in his mind. She looked calm, but her helpless gaze pierced his heart, and he almost found it hard to breathe.
This initially had nothing to do with her.
“Are you feeling upset over her?” Summer’s voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Arnold slowly looked up and saw her standing by his office door.
Summer sneered. “It won’t work if you’re so indecisive like this, Arnold.”
