Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1033

"I heard you were leaving, so I came specifically to see you off," Nathan sighed, gazing at her with affection. "You look so thin. You've truly suffered these past years."

Josie frowned. "How did you find out I was leaving?"

"I heard it from someone."

Nathan smiled faintly. Though his expression was unreadable, Josie understood most of his implicit meaning.

I believe in Laura, so he must have heard it from Claudia. They've seen the letter.

Seeing the fleeting loneliness in Josie's eyes, Nathan added, "Mark and Claudia aren't feeling well, so they asked me to see you off. Don't overthink it. Deep down, they care about you."

They care about me? Yet, even now, they dare not meet me.

Josie's thin lips curved into a slight smirk. She couldn't quite articulate her feelings. Even if they met, she didn't know what to say.

But she had never imagined she wouldn't even get to see them, and they really didn't come to the airport.

"Here is ten million. Claudia asked me to give it to you. When you're away, you must take good care of yourself," Nathan rummaged for a card from his bag and handed it to her sincerely.

Josie was taken aback for a moment. Then, she let out a bitter laugh. I don't even want the Olsen family's assets. Would I want this ten million?

"Ten million?"

"Is it not enough?" Nathan asked subconsciously. "If that's the case, I can..."

"It's enough," Josie interrupted, somewhat dazed as she took the card.

"I'm glad. In truth, they're only looking out for your best interests. Don't take it to heart. Once you accept what they gave you, they'll rest easier."

A sharp glint flashed across Nathan's eyes beneath his gold-rimmed glasses.

"How considerate of them." Josie nodded. Then, she raised her hand and snapped the card in half before handing it back to Nathan. "Thank them for me."

Nathan stood frozen in shock. "What does this mean?"
