Josie’s apprehension mirrored in her eyes, “But, I…”
Larry caught sight of Dexter and quickly walked up, leaning in to whisper something in his
ear. In an instant, Dexter’s gaze shifted upward.

paradoxical nature of the regulations. At the same time, she was impressed with Dexter’s
profound understanding of international law.

immediately ensnared.

lips. “Please excuse the attention. Today, my assistant happens to be my wife as well.”

to him, she had the freedom to actively participate in any significant events related to the
Russell Group!
Their presence together stirred up quite a buzz among the crowd.
By pure chance, the financial media attending the meeting captured the coveted photos
that entertainment reporters had desperately hoped for.

scandal or gossip in showbiz.
Morgan maintained a composed demeanor, seated calmly on the sidelines with a faint
smile, “Looks like Mr. Russell is in a great mood.”
In fact, the person initially designated to negotiate with Dexter was meant to be someone
else.
