Dexter’s attitude had a wealth of warmth inexplicably suffusing Josie.

When the footsteps outside had faded into the distance, Dexter took her hand and led her out of the interlayer. He then swiftly climbed to the top of the ship’s cabin before reaching out and pulling Josie up. They stood together at the elevated point, the wind whistling around them, causing their hair to flutter wildly.

They could see Arnold on the deck, his expression dark as he reprimanded his men. “Apart from the bodyguards on warehouse duty, why is there one person short?”

The bodyguards couldn’t find Josie. All gathered together at that moment, they exchanged glances and realized that one person was indeed missing from their group.

Someone exclaimed, “It’s Joshua! Joshua is missing! I was just on patrol with him. How strange.”

Arnold’s face grew increasingly darker. With a swift flick of his hand, the whip he held whizzed menacingly through the air. “Where is he?”

“I’ll go and look for him right away!”

“Hold it!” Arnold barked, having realized something. “There’s no need to search anymore. Conduct a carpet search. Once you find those two people, kill them immediately.”
