Chapter 592 Begging Her Laura had a strange expression when Josie mentioned Dr. Morgan. She nodded. âYes, Dr. Morgan is a good person.â
A good personâ¦. Josie wanted to laugh. This description doesnât fit Morgan at all. Still, he can be charming if he chooses.
Otherwise, how would I have fallen for his tricks?
Josie lost her appetite as she recalled the last time they met. She had no idea when Morgan returned and why. She hoped she never had to see him again.
Josie stayed in the hospital to rest for the following few days. However, she never saw Dexter again in those days.
The day before her discharge, an unwelcome guest appeared in her ward. It was Xenia.
She brought a crowd with her. It was not a simple visitation. She likely arranged for reporters to take photos of her entering the hospital and publishing articles about her visit.
It was all to remedy her reputation.
Did you come to see me? Iâm standing right here. What are you looking at?â
Xenia looked left and right when Josieâs clear tone brought her to her senses. She smiled stiffly, âOh, are you all right?â
Josie found the situation amusing. âIt has been so many days. You would have visited days earlier if you cared.â
âIâve been busy recently.â
âSeems like youâre now free.â Although Josie did not feel hatred speaking to Xenia, she had no reason to be nice to her.
Xenia clenched her fists. She lost all her jobs ever since Arnold blacklisted her. Thus, she was indeed free.
She looked at Josie with hatred and could not understand why an unremarkable woman like her caught. Dexter and Arnoldâs eyes.
Still, she had no choice but to humble herself for the sake of her career.
Arnold had blacklisted her from the entertainment industry. Xenia could not think of any way to resolve this except to beg Josie.
âMrs. Russell, I didnât mean what I did. I called you over because I was jealous that Arnold liked you. I only wanted to make you suffer a little and did not expect things to spiral out of control. Can you please be merciful and let me go this time?â Xenia looked eager to please Josie.
Josie pondered briefly before answering, âYou want me to let you go? But I didnât do anything to you.â
Xenia was on the verge of tears. âCan you talk to Mr. Carter for me? I really canât afford to lose my job.
I swear I will never bother you again!â
Josie wanted to laugh. âXenia, you came to the wrong person. Rather than me, it would be best if you talked to Mrs. Carter. She is better positioned to persuade Mr. Carter.â
Xenia immediately recalled how Summer stepped on her that day and treated her like trash.
âJosie, Iâm begging you. You have to help me. Didnât you also drag me into the pool? I had a fever too!â
Josie nodded thoughtfully. âBut what does this have to do with me?â
âIâ¦â
Xenia knew her plan failed. She glanced at her surroundings and was relieved that Dexter was not around.
She retorted, âYou are also a woman working in this industry. Canât you show some mercy? Do you think I donât know how you achieved all you have? Donât act like youâre better than me.â
Josie frowned in confusion.
Xenia lowered her voice. âI heard you used to work in Russell Group. Your relationship with Dexter must have started then.â
Josie felt irritable the moment she heard his name. Still, she could tell what Xenia implied. Why does Dexter keep attracting troublesome people wherever he goes?
âWhat do you mean?â
