Chapter 824 Taking Photos
Josie returned to the hotel, still unable to calm down. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
Angel said from outside, “Ms. Jo, the flight is booked. We’re leaving tomorrow afternoon.”
“Okay.”
Early the next morning, Josie called Morgan. “Didn’t you say you wanted to see me off? Take me to the airport this afternoon.”
There was clearly a pause on the other end, then a laugh. “What the matter? You want to make it public?”
“I’m not interested. Are you sending me to the airport or not?”
“Sure.”
Morgan didn’t disappoint, showing up punctually at the hotel entrance in the afternoon. His secretary personally drove the car, with Angel sitting in the front seat while Josie and Morgan sat in the back.
“Try the specialty of Rivodia, the caramel custard,” Morgan said, placing a dish in front of her.
Josie didn’t move. “Did you wait in line to buy this?”
Morgan was quite honest. “My secretary bought it.”

Josie handed it over to Angel.
The latter was somewhat taken aback, unsure whether to accept or not. Josie nodded in indication, and Morgan didn’t react otherwise, so Angel took it.
“You’re leaving so soon? From the sound of it, I thought you were going to explore La Oriele.” Morgan was very busy, still reviewing documents in the car.
Josie was sitting in the corner, engrossed in her phone. “That’s a matter for the police.”
Morgan glanced at her. “Actually, Rivodia has more potential for development than Wavery. The little power that Russell Group gives you, I can give you more in the Bastille family.”
Josie also glanced at him. “I’ll just be working, so what’s the difference?”
Morgan smiled, picking up a document, and after perusing it for a moment, he said. “This morning. I drove Shawn out of Rivodia. Dexter’s plan to use him to disrupt our morale has failed.”
Josie furrowed her brows. She hadn’t expected that Dexter had done all these things. “I’m not interested in your family affairs.”
The first time he met Shawn was the day he saw Heather in Rivodia.” Morgan suddenly revealed the crucial news.
That left Josie taken aback “How did you know?”
“Because not long after that day, news came from Wavery that the long-lost daughter of the Olsen family had been found.” Morgan’s smile was radiant, with a hint of mystery mixed in.
Josie gripped her phone tightly. “What are you trying to say?”
“It’s nothing. It’s just a coincidence,” Morgan said, returning his attention to the documents.
Upon arriving at the airport, the secretary collected their luggage. Morgan accompanied her all the way to the security check. During that time, Angel whispered to Josie, “There are reporters taking pictures.”
Josie noticed as well. She subtly closed the distance between her and Morgan. “You can control these reporters, can’t you?”
Morgan smoothly placed his hand on her shoulder. “Who are you trying to impress by suddenly making such a show? You’re the first one who dares to use me.”
Josie shook off his hand. “If you’re unwilling, you can leave right now.”
“Sure. I’ve said it before. I’m more than happy to be used by you,” Morgan said, laughing nonchalantly.
Upon arriving at the VIP lounge, they ran into a few acquaintances.
Claudia and Heather were also on the same flight.
The former sat in the corner, eyes closed, quietly and devoutly fiddling with the rosary beads in her hand.
Every time Josie saw her, her heart would find peace. But this time, there was an added tension. Her fingers clenched tightly, turning pale, as a myriad of emotions welled up in her eyes.
What bothered her was that Heather was sitting next to her.
“Ms. Warren.” Heather got to her feet, breaking the brief silence.
Suddenly, Josie snapped back to reality, only to see Claudia had also opened her eyes. She was looking at her with a steady and undisturbed gaze.
“We meet again.” She nodded.
