Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117 She's the Main Designer 

Everything can be solved with enough money. Josie chuckled at that thought. 

“But you haven’t told me what this has to do with me?” 

“With Sylmark in our hands, our design department will run the project now. Everyone is wondering whether the project will be passed to you or Claire.” Alice assumed, “You came back at such a critical time, so they must think you’re trying to fight against Claire,” 

After all, if she wasn’t back, it would naturally be assigned to Claire. 

But Josie wasn’t feeling optimistic about receiving the project. “Claire has participated in many big–scale projects and is much more experienced. With the number of awards she won, I believe the executives would be inclined to have her in charge. There’s no need to give me any false hope. 

“Why do you say such a thing? You have never gotten any awards because you’ve never joined any competition. If you went, Claire wouldn’t be acting so arrogant. Also, you don’t have enough experience because Mr. Davidson and Samantha purposely passed the projects to other people. Based on your skills, 1 believe everyone in the office envies you.” Alice’s words tumbled out in a single breath, her voice rising in pitch as she felt the rage building in her chest. 

Josie held onto her chin as she listened to her compliments. Her lips slowly curled up. She was telling the 

Truth. 

“You know me well, but my manager doesn’t.” 

Alice pondered a while and said, “That’s not totally true. Doesn’t Mr. Russell pay a lot of attention to you? He has a good eye for talent. I believe he wouldn’t choose recklessly.” 

Josie felt her hands trembling. How did Alice know? 

“Mr. Russell?” 

“Yes. Maybe you caught his attention due to the incident relating to Samantha. He asked me about your whereabouts when he passed by the last time.” 

Josie wasn’t aware of this. “When did that happen?” 

Alice tried to recall “Half a month ago? It was the day before you took your leave.” 

Based on the timeline, it was the day Claire took credit for her work, and she left Russell Group feeling angered. It was also the day she went to find Justin. 

Josie fell silent. She suddenly thought of the kiss they had shared last night, and her heart started racing. 

Claire entered the office, her eyes narrowing as she caught sight of Josie. 

Josie met her surly glare with a cool stare of her own. 

“The designer for the Sylmark project has been decided,” Claire announced calmly. 

Everyone’s chatter started to fill the room. “Who is it?” 

“Ms. Wilcher, who did they decide on?” 

The room was silent for a moment. 

“The executives have asked Josie and me to form a team for the project,” Claire clenched her teeth and forced the words out. Josie will be the main designer: I’ll assist.” 

Once she announced the result, everyone gasped in shock and looked at Josie in disbelief. 

Josie’s forehead wrinkled in surprise, thinking she had misheard her. 

Claire marched over to her and tossed the file on her desk. “Read through everything in a day. I don’t have 

time to waste. 

Her discontent and rage were like a raging river, threatening to sweep away anyone who That was the moment when Josie realized it was real.
