Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1103

Dexter adjusted his collar. "How should we handle this?"

Upon hearing that, Josie blurted out, "Even if she's my biological mother, can she just hand me over like that?"

She was well aware of their relationship, yet she insisted on rubbing salt in Dexter's wounds.

He looked at her. "She currently lives at No. 3021, Midtown Boulevard, Slirroc, Wavery. If you want to meet her in person, I can arrange it for you."

He was able to recite the detailed address. Josie's eyes flickered with surprise, but it quickly faded. "My father has been ill, and these past two years, he has suffered greatly. His whereabouts are still unknown. Is it too much to ask for her to be held accountable?"

Dexter gazed at the sunlight outside as Morgan drove away. "Not at all. Can you find a legal way? If you can't, I'll create one for you," he said.

Josie narrowed her eyes, almost in disbelief. "Dexter, the way you speak makes one doubt if you're really her biological child."

That was his mother. Despite the strained relationship they had maintained over the past few years, the bond of blood was still there. Yet, he was willing to hand Josie the knife, to personally take the life of his own mother...

"Have you lost your mind?" Josie turned around, unsure of how to face him.

Behind her, footsteps approached slowly and gently. Dexter said, "Whatever I owe you, you don't need to lift a finger. Consider me your blade."

Josie turned her head.

The icy tone in Dexter's voice was like a knife, instinctively making people flinch.

Josie shook her head. "I'm not interested in Xanthe's fate. Sooner or later, she will pay the price. When that time comes, I won't consider the relationship between you two. However, what you're saying now, Dexter, I truly believe, you are heartless."

Each of her words pierced his heart. "Initially, they said Xanthe was mentally ill, and Arnold led me to suspect you were too. Now, I believe, you truly are."
