Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1089

Grape exclaimed, "Mommy, your dress is really beautiful!"

Having lived abroad for many years, she had never seen Josie wear a gown. It was new to her.

Josie found it hard to muster a smile. Calvin stepped out of the room at that moment. Two years had passed, yet he was still the same as before.

"The child is very adorable," Calvin leaned against the door.

Josie remained silent, which was taken as her agreement. "Thank you for taking care of her."

"What's there to thank for? She looks so much like Dexter. She should be calling me Mr. Barrett." After Calvin finished speaking, he whistled at Grape.

Her identity was exposed with just a single sentence. Josie understood that as soon as she met an old acquaintance, Grape's identity could not be concealed. If Calvin could recognize her, Arnold would be able to as well.

"If she should call you Mr. Barrett, then what should she call me?" Mallory poked her head out of the bathroom.

"Ms. Whiteford!" Grape answered.

Mallory gave a playful smile. "I don't want to be just Ms. Whiteford."

Josie understood what she meant. She sat down, holding Grape, when she suddenly noticed a magazine on the table. The cover prominently featured Laura, who was dressed casually. Accompanying her was a tall man, his face not captured in the photo.

The title read: Tycoon from Wavery Sponsors a Handsome Young Man in Rivodia.

Only then did she understand what Dexter had referred to.

For a moment, Josie didn't take it to heart. Grape, leaning on her shoulder, said, "Mommy, you smell like that man."

Josie raised an eyebrow.

With a hint of mischief, Calvin asked, "Who?"

As he spoke, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, and his expression changed. He looked at Josie and answered the call. "Dexter."

Josie looked over.
