Chapter 615 No Privacy

Josie’s response wasn’t one of anger. Exuding an air of authority, she calmly retorted, “Those are all childhood memories and things of the past. Mrs. Carter, don’t you think it’s disrespectful to your husband to bring it up again?”

Josie’s gaze locked with Summer’s, their eyes entangled as if invisible threads held them.

Summer’s lips curved into a cynical smile as she stared at Josie.

“Josic, you may have perfected the art of playing Dex to your advantage, but…”

Confused, Josie interjected, “Mrs. Carter, you’re using the wrong terminology. What does winning or losing have to do with me? The union between the Olsen and Carter families was decided without my involvement. I have no part in it, remember?”

As the waiter brought the coffee, Josie accepted and stirred it with a spoon absentmindedly.

“If you’re not happy marrying Mr. Carter, perhaps you should express your discontent to your parents and the Carters instead of directing your anger towards me.”

Meanwhile, the gentle winter afternoon sun cast a warm and tender glow on Josie.

“Did you happen to see today’s headline in Wavery? It claims that ‘Mrs. Russell betrayed during the negotiation, causing substantial losses for Russell Group”,” Summer remarked, placing one hand on the seat and gently massaging her temple, “Is it true?”

Josie pressed her lips together.

Dexter was right. Being Mrs. Russell meant having every move scrutinized and exposed to the public eye, necessitating caution and vigilance.
