Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1139

The place where they dined was very secluded. Upon opening the window, one could see the river flowing outside, which appeared particularly serene under the moonlight.

“Why didn't you return to Wavery, but instead settled in Rivodia?” Charles personally poured Josie a drink.

Josie answered honestly, “I work here. Also, Wavery brings about too many headaches. You understand, don't you, Mr. Zimmerman?”

Naturally, Charles understood. From his position, he could empathize more with her difficulties. “Don't worry. The Olsen family is safe.”

Josie's drinking motion paused for a moment when she heard that. She then uttered abruptly, “I know.”

“Do you know?” Charles was quite surprised.

“Over the past couple of years abroad, I've heard bits and pieces. Plus, my younger sister is part of the Olsen family, so we've kept in touch. Hence...”

Josie's lying was evidently not very natural, but in this context, it seemed somewhat believable.

Listening through his Bluetooth earpiece, Arnold sneered.

“Sister? Are you talking about Summer?” Charles asked.

“Yes.”

After some serious thought, Charles said, “I haven't heard much about Summer. How did you manage to get in touch with her? I remember you two weren't on good terms.”

The waiter brought the dishes out one after another. After the waiter left, Josie said, “She knew she hadn't done well, always keeping a low profile. Perhaps her reaching out to me was her way of finding peace.”

She spoke those words insincerely. Both of them wished for nothing more than for the other to drop dead. There was simply no chance for reconciliation.

Two days ago, Josie had paid a visit to Arnold, explaining her conditions to him. She needed to meet Summer first before she could approach Charles. Upon hearing this, Arnold laughed, “You want me to find my ex-wife?”

“What ex-wife are you talking about? It seems like you guys never got divorced.”

Josie scoffed. “I just want to put on a show!”

“Do you really want to see your father or not?” she asked. This person is simply not sincere at heart.
