Josie fell silent, no longer willing to speak. She approached Rachel and said, “Listen, I know there are many things you haven’t explained. I won’t interfere with the rest, but I just want to know where Arnold hid my father, Paul. You know, don’t you?”

Upon hearing this, Rachel smiled faintly. “At this point, do you really think I would tell you? I wish nothing more than for you to suffer more than death, Josie.”

Josie’s brows furrowed deeply, and her calm facade finally shattered. “Is it your intention to make my life a living hell? Rachel, don’t you care about your own life anymore? If you provide me with useful clues, I can persuade Dexter to let you go.”

“Let me go, and then what? I would end up dead, caught in the crossfire of some power struggle. I would rather stay here where it’s safe, even if it means enduring some hardship,” Rachel taunted. “As far as I know, you’ve lost the use of half your limbs, haven’t you? It rained heavily for days, and you were tied up for two of them. Don’t tell me it didn’t affect you.”

Upon hearing that, Josie couldn’t help but clench her fists tightly.

Without any backing or leverage to threaten with, Rachel was truly at a loss with Josie. After a long while, she finally calmed down.

“Isn’t it that you just don’t want to see me succeed? So, give me the clues. Once I find Paul, I’ll leave Wavery and go abroad, and I won’t be with Dexter anymore.”

After hearing that, Rachel widened her eyes in disbelief. She hadn’t expected Josie to be so reckless. “Are you out of your mind? He’s just your foster father!” Is it really worth giving up Dexter for him?
