Chapter 589 Nothing Can Happen to Her
Josie kept dreaming in her sleep. She dreamed about Dexter being in bed with an unknown woman. He cuddled the woman and said she was the one he loved the most.

However, Dexter did not understand why she cried. He looked at her with confusion and disdain. It was his disdainful expression that finally shattered her resolve.
It was late. Dexter sat quietly in the study, staring at the computer screen. The high-end surveillance system showed high-definition footage of Josie’s sleeping face. He had been watching it for a few hours.
Although he said he would keep her under house arrest, it was only for tonight. He planned to let her go the next day.
Suddenly, Dexter noticed something off about Josie. Her face was flushed, and she appeared miserable as she tossed and turned on the bed.
His expression changed when he sensed something was wrong.
He stood up immediately and left the study.
Larry and the maid were standing right outside.
The maid insisted on seeing Dexter. Since he refused, she stubbornly stood outside the study. Larry feared she would cause problems and had no choice but to guard the study. The two had been glaring at each other for some time.
Seeing Dexter leaving the study, they called in unison, “Mr. Russell.”
Dexter did not acknowledge them but walked away toward Josie’s room.

A hint of concern appeared on his stern expression. Before entering, he turned the door handle and ordered Larry, “Turn off all the signal blockers and call Anderson to come here!”
Then, he proceeded to Josie’s bed and found her flushed and weak. She looked as if she was dying.
Dexter carried her and heard her mumbling hoarsely in her dreams. He touched her forehead and was shocked by how hot it was.
Panic appeared on his face, “Jo!”
But Josie did not wake up. Her body was worryingly flushed.
In less than ten minutes, Larry entered the room and said, “Mr. Russell, Dr. Monte is in the middle of surgery. I’m afraid he can’t come here any time soon.”
Hearing him, Dexter immediately carried Josie in his arms and rushed outside. “Make an appointment. with the best hospital in the city and get the car ready!”
Larry immediately followed Dexter. The maid was stunned briefly before following them.
