Chapter 727 Make Her Send the File
Dexter listened to the voice recording. Anyone else would have felt enraged to be
seemingly taken advantage of, but Dexter seemed unperturbed.
Heather listened to the recording again and sighed before turning to leave the pantry.
Looking up from her phone, she realized that Dexter was watching her and took a step
back in shock.
“Dex, when did you…”
“Give it to me.” Dexter raised his hand.
However, Heather quickly hid her phone behind her back. “Someone gave me the
recording. I believe she didn’t mean what she said, so please don’t take it to heart. I’ve
deleted the recording too.”
Dexter’s open palm did not waver.
Fearing Dexter would get angry, Heather slowly placed her phone in his hand. “I already
deleted it.”
Dexter opened the chat application on her phone and found Heather’s conversation with
Summer.

Heather, but Heather kept declining her.
He tapped on the recording file, only for the phone to state that the file had been removed
from the device.
“Are you upset, Dex?” Heather questioned tentatively.
little sister request for you to do these kinds of things frequently?”
“Does your little sister
Seeing that Dexter was not upset, Heather sighed in relief. “Not frequently, just
sometimes.”
“Why didn’t you show the recording to me? I might have believed in you.”
“I don’t want to ruin your relationship with Miss Warren with underhanded tactics. The
recording doesn’t sound like her. Perhaps the recording was stitched together by someone
to implicate her,” Heather replied.
Dexter felt a little proud of this young woman. I’m glad that she doesn’t resort to
underhanded tactics.
“Nah, I’m sure Josie would say something like that,” Dexter responded as he walked
towards his desk. He did not sound like he was blaming Josie. In fact, he sounded a little
proud of Josie!
Josie has a sharp tongue – she would not back down from a fight without a last word.
Heather frowned and left to get a cup of Americano.
Dexter was in the midst of signing some documents when Heather entered his office.
“If that were Josie speaking, I would want to know the answer to her last statement about
you mixing up her and me,” Heather asked.
Dexter stopped his writing. “I have never mixed you up.”
Heather’s frown deepened.
Does that mean that his feelings toward Miss Warren are different from his feelings toward
me? Heather felt her heart swirl with unnamed‘ emotions.
After signing all the documents, he closed them up with a snap and held them up to
Heather. “Send these files to Sphinx Corp,”
“Why Sphinx Corp?”
“Do you feel torn between my company and Olsen Group since both companies want to
cooperate with Sphinx Corp?” Dexter looked into the young woman’s eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHeather took the files from Dexter. “No, I understand that business competition is tight.
However, my identity as an Olsen makes it inappropriate for me to send confidential
documents like this, no?”
Dexter grinned as if it did not matter to him. “I trust you.”
Three little words but it held great significance to the listener.
Heather nodded shyly. “I’ll go immediately.”
After she had left the office, Dexter rested his head in his hands in exasperation.
The day wore by.
Dexter had a dinner appointment with Sphinx Corp in the evening. Team members who
were drinkers had mentally prepared themselves, but to their surprise, Dexter only
brought Heather.
Rumors began to float around. “Why is Mr. Russell always taking Heather out for his
appointments? What’s their relationship?“”
On the other hand, Heather had a predicament. “Dex, I don’t drink,” she whispered
urgently before they were ushered into the room reserved for their appointment.
Dexter nodded, his eyes glued onto his watch. “I’ll get them only to offer you tea.”
Heather blushed at his words. “Please don’t tease me…”
