Chapter 14 Dexter's Help

• "Josie."
• Josie was stunned to hear Dexter's voice. He walked to her and pulled her hand. "It's already after working hours. Why haven't you gone home?"
• She wanted to escape his grip, but he increased his strength as he looked at the scarred-face man.
• "What's up with you guys?"
• The man snorted coldly. Since Dexter was alone, he didn't treat him as a threat.
• "What? Gonna be a hero? Let's see if you're up for it."
• With that, he attacked Dexter with a club.
• Dexter narrowed his eyes. Just when the club was an inch away from his face, he grabbed it before throwing a punch at that man.
• The man grunted and groaned, clutching his cheeks.
• The rest of the group didn't catch what had just happened. They looked at the situation in stunned silence.
• The scarred-faced man pointed at Dexter. "You played dirty!"
• As soon as he finished speaking, Dexter crushed his hand. Everyone there could hear his bones crack.
• "Now you know who you shouldn't cross."
• "Ouch!"
• The man groaned in pain.
• "Bro, I'm sorry. I'll never do it again."
• Dexter finally let go of him after hearing that.
• At that moment, a security guard from the company rushed over.
• "Call the police. Let them sit in jail for a few days."
• "No! Please let us go!"
• No matter what they said, Dexter's resolve remained the same. He looked at Josie and asked, "Are you okay?"
• "I'm fine." Then, she winked at him. "I didn't know you could fight, Mr. Russell."
• After complimenting him, she realized they were still holding hands and quickly let go.
• "Thanks. Since it's late, I'll be heading home." With that, she wanted to leave, but he grabbed her hand again.
• "I think we are going in the same direction. I'll send you back."
• Then, Josie was thrown into the car as though she were a pet. She wanted to complain but quickly shut her mouth after seeing his expression.
• No one uttered another word on their way back until the car was parked in the garage.
• As Josie unbuckled her seatbelt, Dexter asked, "What was that?"
• "Hmph?"
• Then, she realized what he was referring to. "It's not a big deal." She didn't want to elaborate on the rumors in the company. "Thanks for helping me out."
• Dexter frowned. "Are you sure it's nothing?"
• Josie quickly smiled. "Yes. It's nothing at all."
• "Give me your phone."
• Though confused, she handed her phone to him obediently.
• He punched in a series of numbers. Soon, his phone rang.
• "This is my personal number. If you are in any trouble, you can call me directly."
• Josie was stunned to see that. "This… isn't appropriate, is it?" she said softly.
• "Yeah?"
• She quickly took her phone back. "Nothing. Thanks, Mr. Russell. Can I get out now?"
• After getting his approval, she quickly unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car. In no time, the sound of a car engine roared. Right after that, the car was gone from the garage.
