Incredulously, Josephine stared at Arnold, taking step by step toward him as if seeking an answer. “Is that really true?”

“It was merely an investigation. Whether there’s an issue or not is still up for debate. Why panic?” stated Arnold.

Seeing him dismiss the matter entirely, Josephine suddenly collapsed onto the ground. “That’s my father-“

“Indeed, there’s no need to worry. As long as your father holds you in his heart, he will rescue you,” Dexter said, his gaze as penetrating as if he were watching a fire, displaying an unexpected calmness.

Dexter continued, “Ms. Yowell, do you know why you were allowed on this ship? It’s because you are his safety net. As long as you’re here, your father won’t abandon him.”

Every word, every sentence, was like a dagger to the heart, words so cruel that Josephine couldn’t bear to listen. She turned her gaze toward Arnold instead.
