Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1150

Larry immediately dared not to continue the conversation.

Once Dexter sat down holding the child, Larry finally said, “The person has arrived.”

Dexter's actions faltered slightly. “Where?”

“In the hotel, available to meet at any time.”

“Let's wait a bit longer.”

Josie emerged from the restroom, noticing Larry hastily making his way out. She called out to him and asked, “In such a rush to leave?”

Larry's gaze fell upon her neck, where a vivid red mark was visible. He replied in a suggestive tone, “All matters have been reported, Ms. Warren. There are certain things I need to handle. Please be more patient with Mr. Russell.”

Josie was utterly confused, watching as he walked away.

After a while, the staff from Russell Group arrived. They were likely high-ranking officials who had hurriedly rushed over, looking travel-worn. Accompanying them was a doctor who brought along medical equipment.

Josie had never met them before. She took Grape away, not wanting her to hear all that.

As for them, they paid more attention to Josie. In a flash, they recognized her, all taken by surprise.

They never thought Dexter would stay away from Wavery to stay in Rivodia for such a long time for the sake of a woman.

Moreover, this woman turned out to be Josie.

The doctor was the first to take a seat, proceeding to attach Dexter to the equipment to measure something.

Meanwhile, others sat nearby, handing Dexter various reports. They asked, “Mr. Russell, you don't look well. Did you not sleep well last night?”

Dexter responded nonchalantly with a hum.

While they waited for him to review the report, they said, “Shawn intervened yesterday afternoon, seizing the subway construction project that Russell Group had contracted for this year, including the project at the Rivodia–Wavery border. He's taken them.”

“Of course, we will ensure that the investigation begins without alarming the shareholders,” the staff member hastily assured.

Dexter cast a glance at the doctor. “You guys don't need to look at his face for cues. I am well aware of my own body's condition.”

No one dared to speak.

The doctor then said plainly, “Do you, though?”

Everyone was taken aback, including Josie, who was standing outside the child's room.

“Tell me honestly. How many nights have you spent awake in Rivodia? You're not even bothered by your high blood pressure, and now you're dealing with arrhythmia and migraines. Dexter, who do you think you are? Do you really believe you're invincible?”

The doctor didn't hesitate to scold people, regardless of their status.

Dexter rubbed his brow, instinctively glancing in Josie's direction. He then gave a bitter smile and said, “Dr. Larson, spare me some dignity. There are so many people here.”
