Chapter 778 Let’s Get a Divorce
Intoxicated with alcohol, Dexter was aggrieved like a child. “There’s really nothing
between. Heather and I.”
This was the first intimate interaction they had after many days.
Dexter had the confidence to explain himself, but the latter didn’t.
Dexter began hastily removing her clothes, tearing off her sleepwear. He was eagerly
trying to prove something. Josie allowed him to do as he pleased and let out a moan.
Thereafter, the man’s movement suddenly stopped, and he stopped gazing at her.
Moments later, he gripped Josie’s hair and covered her eyes. This time, Josie heard his
muffled moan.
It was the first time he had lost his composure in front of her.
“Dexter, I suspect Heather.” Josie blurted out of the blue.
There was a moment of silence before Dexter frowned. “It can’t be her.”
Josie sat up immediately and looked at him in the moonlight. “She’s now the daughter of

resentful and could…”
Dexter held Josie’s hand. “Jo, do you have any evidence?”
Josie was dumbstruck. Indeed, she didn’t have any substantive evidence. “I…”
Dexter’s expression stiffened. After a while, he caressed her hair. “She wouldn’t do that.
Rest. well.”
With that, he left the master bedroom. His trust in Heather was boundless.
Lying on the bed, Josie was overwhelmed with desolation as tears streamed down her
cheeks. She thought of Paul again. If he were around, he would surely trust her.
As dawn broke, the morning sun shone upon the fully-bloomed summer flowers in the
arden. Josie finally got up and put on makeup in front of the huge mirror in the bathroom.
The mirror reflected her delicate gestures and flawless contours.
She took her phone and typed out a message. She hesitated for a long time before finally
pressing the send button..
‘Let’s get a divorce.”
At that time, Dexter had sole control over the Russell Group. As such, it was difficult for

foreign investors to venture into the conglomerate. However, if they took advantage of the
company’s vulnerable situation during a crisis to use leverage to buy its shares and join
forces with other domestic enterprises to aggressively target the Russell Group, Dexter
might not be able to hold out despite his power.
After Josie’s incident, the Russell Group had lost its market value by thirty percent. Such

Russell Group was breached by foreign investors, it couldn’t escape the fate of being
disintegrated or restructured. If that happened, the conglomerate would become
worthless.

and offended many of them while acting as the CEO. If the politicians chose to align with

become more devastating.
Apparently, they wouldn’t stay out of the matter and act like saints.
Foreign investors’ bearish attitude toward the Russell Group caused dissatisfaction among
market traders. However, the securities commission promptly responded, claiming that
the foreign investor’s funding was legitimate and there was no suspicion of insider trading.
Ast long as the investors complied with relevant regulations, the commission would not
intervene.
The Carter Group’s tackle on the Russell Group was particularly aggressive. Dexter had
stayed in the office the past three days to monitor the stock market. He was truly
stretched thin.
At the same time, many market traders in the exchange had grown weary. As long as the
aftermath of Josie’s incident was not resolved, there was no way they could salvage the
stock market’s condition.
One day, Larry seized a brief moment to update Dexter about Josie. “Mr. Russell, Mrs.
Russel has left Mason Garden.”
