NovelOnlineJosie's wrist throbbed with pain, but she endured it, shouting loudly, "Justin! Don't let your pride cloud your judgment!" As he opened the door, his movements abruptly halted. He asked, "In the end, will you return to the Olsen family?" Before Josie could respond, Justin had already stormed out, slamming the door behind him.
Perhaps the commotion was too loud. Morgan had a bad premonition after witnessing that scene. He barged in directly. "Jo!" Josie was half-lying on the bed, her brows furrowed in pain.
Morgan's brow twitched, a pang of concern spreading through him. He stepped forward to check on her condition. "Are you alright? Did Justin upset you?" Josie didn't let him touch her. He stood in the shadows, much like a child who had done something wrong. "I'm sorry. It was my failure to execute your plan properly that caused you harm." Josie raised her hand to cover her eyes, plunging herself into darkness. "After | left the airport, why didn't your people cto pickup?" "There was an accident. They've already been dealt with." "Justin and the others were deliberately let into the wedding venue by Dexter. Where were you at that time?" Morgan was at a loss for words, but he quickly added, "I know that whatever | say now is pointless. All the bllies with me. However, fortunately, the outcis positive, isn't it? Mark is already out of danger and will wake up soon, and then..." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Josie.

She was too calm, a tranquility that deeply unsettled Morgan. He crouched down halfway. "If you're angry, let it out. Hit me, scold me, do whatever you want, just don't be upset." Josie remained still.
Morgan approached her with longing in his eyes. "What are your plans after this? Will you return to the Olsen family?" He knew clearly that Claudia and Mark were just momentarily taken aback. Under no circumstances would they abandon their own biological daughter.
Yet, as Josie stepped out of the hospital room, basking anew in the sunlight, she declared, "I am not affiliated with anyone. | am simply on my own." Morgan's silhouette, standing in the shadows, swayed slightly.
Outside, Calvin leaned against the wall, intending to light a cigarette, but was stopped by a nurse. Helplessly, he gave up, his body radiating frustration.
"I must see her," he repeated to Mallory.
"I'm not stopping you. Go ahead, tell her all your grievances. See if she'll go with you." Mallory wore a radiant smile.
Calvin, growing impatient, climbed up, barely holding back. "Something has happened to Russell Group. If she doesn't meet Dexter, once her shares are acquired, she won't have it easy." Ever since the shocking scandal involving Heather broke out, Mark was hospitalized, leaving the Olsen family leaderless. Their partnerships were dissolved, and Russell Group had to face not only the onslaught of negative press but also the risk of a broken capital flow.
Even within the company, there were those who watched the situation unfold covetously.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDexter's predicament was even more challenging than the most severe situation before. Those past few days, he had been staying day and night at Russell Group without any spare time.
If, back then, Dexter hadn't fueled the flames to complete Josie's plan, Russell Group wouldn't have ended up in that situation.
He was fully aware of the risks he would face, yet he still chose to proceed.
He gambled his entire fortune.
Upon hearing that, Mallory showed no reaction. "I've told you, you should speak to her yourself." Calvin narrowed his eyes. "She won't listen to me. She might only listen to you." Mallory wanted to say that Josie wouldn't listen to herself either, but she still smiled. "Beg me, Mr. Barrett. When you ask for help, you should have the right attitude."
