Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter)

In an instant, Josie understood why Preston had said that the investigation team would look into the Olsen family. No one could withstand scrutiny when it came to old affairs from the past.

Even they had been mobilized, so it was clear that the matters of the Olsen family were definitely not minor.

After delivering the fruit, Claudia emerged to find her still standing in the same spot. "What's the matter?"

Josie gestured for her to follow her to the backyard. The street was eerily quiet, and the air was filled with the sweet scent of autumn chrysanthemums. "Have you heard any news from Summer?"

Claudia's face fell instantly. "Mentioning her in front of me is one thing, but don't bring her up in front of Mark."

"Why?"

"We've raised her for so many years, but she ended up being a child who doesn't recognize her own family. Why even bring her up?"

Josie had a grasp of the situation. It seemed they were not privy to much information.

Seeing her take the initiative to ask, Claudia could guess most of it. "What happened?"

"I saw her in Rivodia."

Claudia lifted her eyes slightly. "What is she doing?"

"She's with a powerful man." Josie didn't spell it out completely.

Claudia let out a scoff, seemingly unsurprised.

"If she wants to choose her own path of downfall, let her be. She better not regret it."

However, it was highly likely that she was involved in the incident with Dexter this time, and Josie did not know how to explain it.

"Would she reply if you were the ones to reach out?"

Upon noticing her serious demeanor, Claudia could infer something was amiss. "You wouldn't have brought her up if it weren't for special circumstances. Is there something you need our help with?" Josie realized she had spoken too much and shook her head. "I just remembered something. It's nothing much."

"Just say it."

"It's really nothing."

She couldn't drag the Olsen family into this mess.

When they returned inside, Lionel and the others had already left. Only Mark remained, sitting in the same spot, lost in thought.

Josie quietly took a seat across from him, discarding the cold coffee before preparing a fresh brew.

"The elders you met earlier seem to share a deep bond with you."

Only then did Mark snap back to reality. A subtle smile played on his lips. "We rise and fall together."

Josie came to a decision that whatever happened in Newcove had to be kept under wraps.

Preston was right. The investigative

team found her rather quickly, and it happened during her work hours. They came straight into her office

and took her away.

"Ms. Warren, kindly cooperate with the investigation."

Nearly half of the people in the office stood up, all drawn by the spectacle.

Josie said calmly, "Could you allow me to finish what I'm working on? It'll only take five minutes.”

Five minutes wasn't a long time. A few individuals in uniforms stood by, watching her finish her task. Once done, she rose and departed with them. The conversation took place in the conference room of Olsen Group.

"You're Dexter's ex-wife. You were married to him for two long years. During those two years, did you ever notice any illicit dealings on his part?" Josie smirked. "It's just two years. Using the word 'long' seems a bit inappropriate, don't you think?"

"In short, you're the only woman he ever had a close relationship with."

Josie actually took a moment to reminisce seriously. "I don't know. T never interfered with his work while we were married. Even if I saw it, I simply couldn't understand it."

"From what we understand, you were with Russell Group for a long time and even served as his assistant. Yet, you're saying you know nothing?"

"So what if was his assistant?”

Josie asked with a smile. "We were a couple. It was normal to have a bit of fun, like cosplay or something. It's not against the law, right?"
