Chapter 451 Zach Olsen
After being tormented the whole night, Josie finally decided what she wanted from him.
“Alright,” Dexter agreed to her request as he ran on the second-floor gym treadmill. He was sweating
profusely, exuding his vigor.
He reached out for the bottle Josie had brought to him. “If you want to do that, go ahead.”
Josie leaned on the running machine, and a smile bloomed across her face. “About the funds…”
The man lifted his head and gulped down the water, his Adam’s apple bobbing up and down before he
said, “I’ll support you.”
Josie shot up and jumped in glee, marking a kiss on the corner of Dexter’s lips. “Thank you, honey.”
The word “honey” rarely passed her lips, so when she whispered it, it sent a shiver down his spine. By
the time he had regained his senses, Josie had already skipped away down the corridor, her laughter
echoing in his ears.
With his approval, Josie accepted Laura’s request to open a work studio together. Laura couldn’t cover

would be solved.
She had been in charge of multiple events in the past, exposing her to many connections who could
play a part in her new start-up. Moreover, she had gotten the Interior Design Awards, so her plans went
smoothly, and the process was on a spectacular scale.
They named the studio “Blank, signifying a white piece of paper where they would have a new
beginning.
Josie gave a call to Alice. She had been in the industry for many years, and Alice was the person she
trusted the most. To her delight, the latter said without hesitation, “I’m willing to help you.”
Her determination left Josie startled. “The Russell Group… was your dream place to work at.”
“Yes, but it is nothing compared to being able to work with you,” she answered nonchalantly.
“We have nothing to offer.”
“Then we’ll build it up from ground zero.”
Josie was touched by her words. Alice also brought in two people she trusted from the
Russell Group, which helped Josie reduce the burden of recruiting new employees.
When Dexter learned about it, he said teasingly, “Josic, you sure are bold. You are taking away my
people right under my nose.”
She lifted her chin, looked him in the eyes, and responded, “It’s a little crowded in the Russell Group.
I’m sure Mr. Russell wouldn’t blame me.”
“We’re a family. It doesn’t matter who they work for. Dexter spoke with a hint of a smile, wrapping his
arms around her shoulder.
Seeing how he fully supported her, Josie suddenly felt a pang of guilt.
The night before the opening of her studio, she noticed a Rolls-Royce parked downstairs when she
was about to leave. The car plate wasn’t Dexter’s. When the windows rolled down, she saw Zach
Olsen.
As always, he was prim and proper. “Jo,” he called.
Josie didn’t know how to address him. “Laura is still inside. I’ll go get her.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll get her,” he announced as he exited the car.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLaura heard the sound of the busy footsteps entering the studio again; her lips curled into a smile as
she said, “I told you we could handle this. Why are you so worried?”
When she finally saw the silhouette of the person standing in front of her, the smile on her face faltered.
Josie stood behind Zach so she couldn’t see his reaction. “I didn’t see you at home, so I got worried
and came here to find you,”“
Laura immediately kept a straight face, but her mind was racing, and her hands started to tremble. “Oh,
I’ve been busy, so I got home late.”
Zach approached her and put his hand on her shoulder. “Why wouldn’t you text me to tell me you’re
okay?”
Laura avoided his eyes. “I forgot.”
Josie noticed the corner of Laura’s lips hardened, which was an unusual reaction towards her new
husband.
“Since Josie’s here, we’ll send Jo home before heading to our house.” Before they left, Zach helped her
to organize and pack the documents on the table. Alice pulled Josie closer to her and commented,
“Laura’s husband is really caring towards her. I’m so jealous of them.”
