Chapter 772 Wash Herself Clean
Chapter 772 Wash Herself Clean
Josie was hot under the collar, perceiving Dexter’s immense disappointment. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust her; it was that whether she was set up or not, as a man, Dexter couldn’t accept his wife sleeping with another man, let alone her explicit pictures being exposed to the public.
Josie dismissed her initial thought of pleading with Dexter to rescue Arnold. Given the current situation, Dexter would definitely kill Arnold!
She didn’t get into Moses’ car. “I’d like to take a walk.”
Moses was exasperated. “Please don’t look for trouble again at this point in time.”
Josie’s face was white as a sheet. She smirked bitterly. “Am I looking for trouble?”
It was already summer, but she still felt cold. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Josie insisted on walking on her own. So, Moses had no choice but to follow her in his car.
She walked back to Mason Garden while pondering the incident, thinking about who the culprit could be. She even considered Ava but still couldn’t figure out who was capable of orchestrating such a grand scheme.
Josie remained rational. Late at night, she sat at the stairways in front of Mason Garden and stared into the distance under the porch light while expressionlessly ruling out each person with suspicion.
The enforced rationality made her mind a mess. Before this, she took a two-hours bath, desperately wanting to wash herself clean. She couldn’t even bear to look at the mark on her neck, and the scene where Dexter let go of her hand repeatedly replayed in her mind.
Dexter was truly angry this time. He confiscated everything she could use to contact the outside world and confined her in the villa, isolating her from the world….
Because she had embarrassed him.
Josie was locked in Mason Garden for the next three days. All servants were dismissed. Besides Julie, who would drop by regularly, no one else stepped foot in Mason Garden.
Josie was in a tight spot and didn’t dare to trust anyone. The unknown fate made her feel like. one on the chopping board, which others could slaughter as they wished.
After a few days, she still couldn’t contact Dexter and didn’t know how public opinion was shaping up outside. So, she secretly sneaked out when Julie came to prepare meals.
She wanted to borrow a passerby’s phone to call Arnold and check in on him, but when she entered a supermarket with a mask on, she suddenly heard someone discussing her. “Hey, do you still have pictures of Dexter Russell’s wife? I can’t find them online anymore.”
“Who would allow others to see their wife like that, let alone Dexter Russell.” The lewd man guffawed. “But I’ve saved them already. Let me send them to you. Haha!TM
“She looks innocent. Who knows, she’s actually a sl*t!”
Josie froze at the entrance of the supermarket when she heard the conversation. The two men saw her when they lifted their gazes but didn’t recognize her. So, they left after paying at the counter.
The cashier looked at Josie in confusion. “Miss, how can I help you?”
Is that how everyone is talking about me? Josie felt like her heart was squeezed into a jar of vinegar and bitterness. It was so painful that she almost couldn’t catch her breath. She mumbled softly with a cracking voice, “Nothing. Sorry for disturbing you.”
Then, she ran away.
She ran all the way back to Mason Garden, where she could isolate herself so that no one would witness her miserable and humiliated self.
When she finally arrived at Mason Garden, she leaned against the wall and heaved deep breaths. She closed her eyes and attempted to push all the malicious comments behind her. She kept convincing herself that she could overcome this because she was someone who had weathered the storms and urged herself to forget about the hurtful remarks..
