Chapter 907 She Chose Morgan
“Where?”
“Russell Mansion.”
Laura slammed her cutlery on the table as her eyes widened in disbelief. “Where?”
“She looked really angry.”
Laura was laughing so hard that she was gasping for air, as if she could already imagine Heather’s expression. “That was mean,” she said, giving Josie a thumbs up.
Josie laughed along. Just when she was about to say something, someone ran into the room and greeted, “Ms. Brandel.”
Laura’s smile faded. “What’s wrong?”
The person handed over a contract and said, “This requires your signature urgently.”
Laura browsed through the document and signed her name on it after making sure that there were no
issues.
Meanwhile, Josie was quietly observing her, thinking that the once arrogant and domineering daughter of an elite family had truly transformed into a capable woman who could stand on her own.
After Laura finished signing, the person said, “Mr. Olsen requests that you be back home for dinner tonight.”
Upon hearing that, Laura glanced at Josie before nodding with hesitation, “All right. I understand.”
After the person left, Josie kept quiet while Laura was the first to speak. “Ever since we learned of Henry’s death, Mark’s health has been deteriorating. It might be due to seasonal changes.”
Josie nodded while idly playing with the tassel on the corner of her blouse. “One tends to place more importance on family gatherings as they get older,” she said.
Laura forced a smile and nodded.
“I will update you as soon as I hear any news regarding Heather and Dexter,” Laura said.
Noticing her anxious expression, Josie replied in amusement, “I know you’re on my side, but you don’t need to tell me anything. I’m not going to choose Dexter.”
Laura frowned. She had always believed that the ties between Josie and Dexter would never be broken.
“Are you going to choose Arnold?” she asked.
“No” Josie looked out the window where a car was parked. The attention-seeking license plate reminded her of someone. After a while, she withdrew her gaze and said to Laura, “I choose Morgan”
The expression on Laura’s face remained unchanged as she asked Josie for the reason. At the same time. the light in her eyes gradually dimmed.
Josie did not answer.

She was not able to contact Morgan for a few days. He told her that something unexpected had happened. to Bastille Group, and he had to go back to deal with it
Meanwhile, Justin had also found out which company Stardust eCommerce belonged to.
“It’s just a shell company. They have created multiple shell companies, but the Carter Group is the corporation behind it.”
Josie only believed it when she checked the documents and saw that the legal representative was Arnold.
She clicked her tongue and replied, “That was unexpected.”
She was shocked that Arnold was the one who provided the information to Xanthe.
Indeed, Arnold would take in anyone who was against Dexter. Besides, Josie had personally witnessed the close interactions between the two of them.
After all the twists and turns, it all came back to Arnold.
“Can you check Arnold’s recent schedule for me?”
A moment later, Justin replied, “Recently, he has been visiting Edward in the hospital every day. But Josie, why are you asking about him? Are we supposed to investigate Heather?”
Josie snapped out of her daze. Looking at Justin who had a confused expression on his face, she did not know how to tell him that she was actually trying to find out about Paul’s whereabouts.
Oh. I’m just checking because they belong to the same social circle.”
Justin felt slightly relieved after hearing that and replied. “You must tell me if there’s anything going on. It’s a messy situation. I’m worried that you might get into trouble.”
Josie felt a warm sensation in her heart. She patted her brother’s head and said, “I know. Besides, I have you, don’t I? You’re so quick-witted and dependable. Don’t worry, I know what to do.”
Only then did Justin feel completely reassured.
