Chapter 413 Secretly Photographed
Josie received a call from Alice the morning after she got drunk. After a moment of silence,
Alice said, “What the heck happened?”
Josie was briefly confused. Her memories were vague. I think Dexter picked me up after I
got drunk…
Then, we bumped into Alice…
He carried me off…
Josie’s forehead throbbed. She replied awkwardly, “Erm… Would you believe me if I say
he’s a distant relative?”
Alice snorted and said, “Why would your distant relative bridal carry you?”
Her voice was so loud that Josie instinctively held the phone away from her ear. At the
same time, Alice scolded, “You always said your husband refused to meet anyone due to
his disability. Never did I dream that he was Dexter! My goodness, Josie! How could you do
this? How could you trick me for so long?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJosie listened to her scolding quietly and nodded. “Don’t be angry. There are good reasons
for hiding it. I didn’t have a choice.”“
Alice took a deep breath. “When did it start? Josie, I knew you were courageous, but I
didn’t expect you to be this daring. I can’t believe that you’re in a relationship with Dexter.
No, wait. The more important question is, how did you do it?”
Josie bit her lip. “One needs a bit of luck sometimes, and I was lucky then.”
Alice was silent for a while before saying, “I remember everything. You’re the woman in
those tabloid photos. I’ve always wondered why the woman looked like you. Now I know it
was you!”
“Also, what’s your status with him? Are you dating him?”
Josie was rendered speechless. She knew it was impossible to continue hiding it. Thus, she
confessed, “We’re married.”
Alice was stunned into silence.
She remained silent for a long time.
“Heck…”
“Are you okay?” Josie asked cautiously.
“My friend is my boss’ wife. Heck, I’ve been living in a TV drama all this while.”
“That’s not true. It might be over soon,” Josie said honestly.
But Alice refused to believe her. “Cut the cr*p. I saw how Mr. Russell treated you yesterday.
He only had eyes for you. He looked so furious like he wanted to kill everyone who
touched you.
Josie was stumped. “Other than you, who saw us that night?”
“Billy, but he probably won’t say anything. Mr. Russell’s secretary warned him.” Alice
suddenly realized something. That means everyone in the secretary’s office knew about
it!”
“Wait, but if they knew, why did you resign from the design department? Was it to avoid
suspicion?”
Josie could not tell her that it was Dexter’s punishment for her. “It’s a long story. I’ll tell
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyou about it another time.”
“By the way, where are you now?”
Josie had just finished washing up when a servant brought her a hangover soup. “I added
truffles to the soup. Old Mr. Russell arranged for someone to bring truffles here two days
ago and instructed you to have them for your health.”
Josie nodded.
She had not visited Henry for a long time as she was busy dealing with many cumbersome
matters. Moreover, her relationship with Dexter was not going well. She was not sure how
she should face Henry.
She felt guilty toward him.
Her phone buzzed with a new message as she was still on the call with Alice. The message
contained a few blurred photos, but Josie could see that those photos showed Dexter
carrying her drunken self into the car. They were taken from an angle that made it seem
like she and Dexter were intimate.
Most importantly, the photos showed her face.
The sender messaged. ‘Pay up if you don’t want them leaked’
Josie’s heart sank. She looked down and messaged back. ‘How much do you want?”
