Chapter 637 Marriage Is Nice
Josie’s playful demeanor faded slightly as she expressed her disapproval. “No, that won’t
do… It’s a working trip. I can’t fully enjoy it when there’s work involved.”
Dexter amusedly responded, “You’re quite hard to satisfy, aren’t you?”
He gently lifted Josie up and playfully threw her onto the soft bed. He followed closely,
leaning over her, and whispered, “Then, when we have time, I’ll take you
there.”
With the man so close, Josie blushed. She avoided his intense gaze, responding softly with
at slight hum.
In the morning, light streamed through the car windows as Josie drank her milk, her fair
skin. adorned with a rosy hue. Her drowsy state revealed the effects of insufficient sleep.
Sitting in the back seat, Larry reported to Dexter, “Mr. Russell, here are Mark’s medical
records.”
Dexter quickly scanned the records, inquiring, “Has Summer or the head of the investment
bank taken any action yet?”

Larry responded, “They haven’t made any moves yet. I believe the investment bank is
also hesitant, considering the interests of the old and new bosses. I think we can trust Mr.
Hensley’s judgment for now.”
Dexter, signing various contracts before him, chuckled with a tinge of disdain. “What if the
new boss proves to be more powerful?” Dexter remarked, implicating that the head of the
investment bank, Mr. Hensley, might abandon the old boss for its stronger competitor.
Larry was momentarily at a loss for words, unable to come up with a satisfactory
response.
“Not everyone has a conscience,” Dexter added, his expression thoughtful.
Just then, Josie opened her eyes. She shook the milk bottle, saying, “I can’t finish it,
Dexter.”
Interrupting his work, Dexter put aside the contracts and took over the bottle, finishing the
remaining milk at her behest.
Larry found himself somewhat stunned. Having worked with Dexter for so long, he knew
hist habits and preferences well. Dexter had always been a black coffee enthusiast,
showing no interest in anything else. But now, he has even started drinking milk.
Dexter noticed Larry’s perplexed gaze and raised an eyebrow. “What are you looking at?”
Larry stammered, “It’s nothing… I just noticed that married men do seem to change.”
Dexter’s lips curved into a faint smile as he glanced affectionately at Josie, who pretended
to nap. “Marriage is nice. You should try it too.”
Larry was taken aback by Dexter’s teasing remark, unsure how to respond. He replied
humbly, “I am not as fortunate as you, Mr. Russell. I don’t even have a girlfriend.”
“It’s not too late to find one. If you ever need anything, just let me know,” Dexter replied,
his tone lighthearted and teasing.
The sound of Dexter’s pen scratching against the paper filled the air. He appeared truly at
ease and content under the warm rays of sunlight.
Upon arriving at the hospital, they found Mark Olsen’s floor heavily guarded by vigilant
bodyguards with strict access control. They were clearly closely guarding against any
news about Mark’s illness leaking out.
Standing outside the hospital room, they realized all the tight security measures had

“Mr. Olsen, I think we should reconsider this. The company should not be handed over to
Ms. Olsen so hastily,” came a voice from inside the room. Several middle-aged individuals
who appeared to be shareholders were sitting around Mark Olsen’s bedside, offering
relentless advice.
Standing by the side, Claudia addressed the shareholders calmly, “I understand what
you’re saying. You came so early just to talk about these trivial matters. Do you think
Summer isn’t capable?”
Mark lay in bed, and his eyes closed as if pretending to be asleep.
“Mrs. Olsen, we didn’t mean to undermine Ms. Olsen’s capability. We just think that she’s
still young and too impulsive to handle such a huge responsibility,” one of the
shareholders explained.
“Mr. Olsen has already made a decision, proving she’s qualified. You are all acting above.

“You came early, Dex,” Arnold remarked nonchalantly.
