Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1010

Josie's wrist throbbed with pain, but she endured it, shouting loudly, "Justin! Don't let your pride cloud your judgment!"

As he opened the door, his movements abruptly halted. He asked, "In the end, will you return to the Olsen family?"

Before Josie could respond, Justin had already stormed out, slamming the door behind him.

Perhaps the commotion was too loud. Morgan had a bad premonition after witnessing that scene. He barged in directly. "Jo!"

Josie was half-lying on the bed, her brows furrowed in pain.

Morgan's brow twitched, a pang of concern spreading through him. He stepped forward to check on her condition. "Are you alright? Did Justin upset you?"

Josie didn't let him touch her. He stood in the shadows, much like a child who had done something wrong. "I'm sorry. It was my failure to execute your plan properly that caused you harm."

Josie raised her hand to cover her eyes, plunging herself into darkness. "After I left the airport, why didn't your people come to pick me up?"

"There was an accident. They've already been dealt with."

"Justin and the others were deliberately let into the wedding venue by Dexter. Where were you at that time?"

Morgan was at a loss for words, but he quickly added, "I know that whatever I say now is pointless. All the blame lies with me. However, fortunately, the outcome is positive, isn't it? Mark is already out of danger and will wake up soon, and then..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Josie.

"I should never have relied on anyone in the first place. This isn't your fault. It's mine." She sat up, meeting his gaze. "Don't take it to heart."

She was too calm, a tranquility that deeply unsettled Morgan. He crouched down halfway. "If you're angry, let it out. Hit me, scold me, do whatever you want, just don't be upset."

Josie remained still.

Morgan approached her with longing in his eyes. "What are your plans after this? Will you return to the Olsen family?"

Dexter's predicament was even more challenging than the most severe situation before. Those past few days, he had been staying day and night at Russell Group without any spare time.

If, back then, Dexter hadn't fueled the flames to complete Josie's plan, Russell Group wouldn't have ended up in that situation.

He was fully aware of the risks he would face, yet he still chose to proceed.

He gambled his entire fortune.

Upon hearing that, Mallory showed no reaction. "I've told you, you should speak to her yourself."

Calvin narrowed his eyes. "She won't listen to me. She might only listen to you."

Mallory wanted to say that Josie wouldn't listen to herself either, but she still smiled. "Beg me, Mr. Barrett. When you ask for help, you should have the right attitude."
