Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1114

Upon returning to Dexter's residence, Josie noticed that there were guests inside. They were gathered in small groups, dressed in plain clothes, and their figures were quite distinctive and familiar.

Josie, supporting Paul, entered and immediately spotted Scott.

He had arrived in Rivodia.

Scott hadn't changed much. "Ms. Warren!" His gaze then fell upon Paul. "We've heard about your father's situation. We apologize for not initiating the rescue immediately, which led to—"

Interrupting, Josie said, "This has nothing to do with all of you."

She exchanged a glance with Dexter, who was seated in the main seat. His gaze was indifferent, silently inquiring about her condition.

To others, it seemed perfectly normal, but in his eyes, something was off.

Upon seeing so many unfamiliar faces, Paul was somewhat startled. Josie greeted everyone and then promptly led him back to their room.

Dexter had specifically instructed his staff to prepare a room for Paul. It was located on the first floor, very close to his own bedroom. This way, he could be immediately aware of any situation that might arise.

Once Paul had settled down, only then did Josie step out.

Apart from Scott, there seemed to be several other plain-clothes police officers present, and their ranks were even higher. They were engaged in conversation with Dexter.

"The fact that Arnold could appear as Robyn indicates that he had enough confidence to prove he was not Arnold. Consequently, we would need more evidence." Unconsciously, Dexter fiddled with the watch on his wrist, deep in thought. "He blatantly stirs up trouble under the guise of Robyn's identity. Do you all think that he could do this without a backer in Rivodia?"

These words struck a nerve, leaving the group exchanging uneasy glances. "Are you suggesting..."

"La Oriele burned all through the night, yet not a single contraband item was found. Clearly, someone was covering his tracks."
