Chapter 705 Seems Like a Lover
Xanthe had heard of the relationship between Liana and Dexter, so she took special care
of Summer, who was Liana’s family, hoping to please Dexter by doing so. Little did she
expect Liana to return at this time.
Dexter wore a mocking smile. “Would you like to meet her?”
Xanthe instinctively avoided his gaze, guilt-stricken. “I don’t know her, so it’s unnecessary
to meet.”
Dexter’s eyes were filled with intense ridicule when he perceived Xanthe’s guilty
conscience. He didn’t expect Xanthe to still have a trace of conscience and feel uneasy
about abandoning him.
One was the destroyer, while the other was the rescuer. So, Xanthe didn’t dare to meet
Liana.
As Xanthe left, Dexter watched her walk away and felt strange. Mother and son should
have a strong. connection, but he had never felt a tinge of motherly love from Xanthe
despite their numerous interactions.

Dexter had become emotionally numb.
“Dex!”
Heather, who had been waiting at the car for some time, called out to Dexter as he walked
down the stairs. outside the courthouse. She was dressed in a blouse and jeans, which
gave her a youthful appearance.
Dexter walked up to her. “What brings you here?”
“Father said I should do a good job on the first day of work.” Heather smiled sweetly.
Moses was about to open the car door but was stopped by Heather. “Mr. Chakov, you can
leave this to me from now onwards.”
Moses was shocked by Heather’s sudden action. He cast a glance at Dexter before saying.
“Please don’t say that, Ms. Olsen. This is my job.”
Dexter tapped Heather’s head and got into the car. “You’re the eldest daughter of the
famous Olsen family. How can I make you open the car door for me? Are you kidding me?”
Heather was embarrassed. “Please don’t say that. This used to be my job, wasn’t it?”
The response reminded Dexter of the old memories. “You don’t have to anymore.” He
mumbled with downcast eyes.
Upon arriving at the company, Dexter personally brought Heather to the secretary’s office.
“This is Heather Riley, She’ll be joining the team from now on. Take good care of her.”
The staff exchanged glances as they didn’t expect Dexter to escort Heather to the office.
Such special treatment was surprising.
After Dexter left, Heather organized her stuff in her seat. Someone approached her
carefully and asked, “Ms. Riley, are you Mrs. Russell’s friend or relative?”
Heather paused her action. “Why do you ask?”

“Mr. Russell never appears with other women, except Mrs. Russell. We thought he
personally brought you here today because of Mrs. Russell.”
Heather put on a sarcastic smirk and continued organizing her stuff. “Should all women in
his life only be related to Mrs. Russell?”

Her colleagues were baffled. Some perceived her response with respect, while others with
disdain. It seems like she’s Mr. Russell’s lover…
Dexter trusted the new assistant greatly. He hadn’t assigned her official matters yet but
entrusted her with his personal affairs.
Unlike Josie, Heather never mistook the tea Dexter liked. However, Dexter felt as if
something was lacking when he drank it.
“You make good tea. Who taught you the skill?”
Looking awkward, Heather answered honestly, “It’s Mr. Carter…”
Arnold Carter.
Dexter nodded. “I guess he has never imagined the assistant he personally trained is
actually the daughter of the Olsen family.”
“Dex, I never thought of myself as someone prestigious.”
Dexter nodded. “I’m just kidding.”
“Does your wife know I’m working here? I don’t mean anything. I’m just afraid she might
misunderstand.”
