Chapter 221 The Other Woman

A woman laughed, and her gaze was filled with contempt. She didn’t comment.

Dexter talked to the men and mentioned the construction site. They should have been dealing with the aftermath of the Sylmark projects. After three rounds of drinks, a few men were slightly tipsy.
