Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1143

Larry had been consistently keeping tabs to ascertain who Arnold would arrange to meet Edward the next day.

Josie was also very curious.

Dexter blurted out, “Summer?”

Dexter guessed it right.

After a few seconds of silence from Larry, there was a hint of complaint in his voice. “How did you know? Who leaked the information?”

Josie hadn't expected his guess to be correct, leaving her utterly astonished.

Dexter wore a half-smile, watching her as he explained, “If you were to ask for Charles' position, even if it were Summer, anyone would have suspicions. Therefore, Arnold wouldn't rashly replace anyone, let alone go personally.”

Larry was on the other end, momentarily confused. “Are you talking to me?”

Josie replied, “But even Laura doesn't know where Summer is. How would Arnold know?”

“Don't forget that they're in the same boat,” Dexter said indifferently. “Perhaps these past two years, Summer has been by Arnold's side.”

Josie became speechless. So? Is it a setup?

Josie couldn't begin to fathom just how cunning Arnold was.

“Arnold probably wouldn't have allowed her to go if he didn't trust her completely.”

Josie couldn't dare to imagine even more. Dexter was considered to be even more cunning than Arnold.

Dexter then continued his conversation with Larry by asking, “Where is Summer now?”

“She's settled in one of Arnold's residences, appearing to be in good spirits.”

“Just keep watching.”

After Dexter hung up the phone, Josie was still confused. She simply sat down and mused, “Summer is not the biological daughter of the Olsen family. She was very sensitive about this status, but by that time, I had already left Wavery. Why didn't she fight for it anymore? Why did she let Laura and her family dominate?”

Zach was indeed capable of enduring humiliation for the sake of a higher objective.
