NovelOnlineChapter 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.”

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.

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.
