Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1176

“Photos, photos,” Paul muttered, unable to recognize who was before him.

Josie stepped forward, noticing a stack of documents in the red box. Below them were various trinkets, and even a medical license. She was somewhat taken aback, as she remembered leaving these items in Mason Garden back in Wavery.

The last time she saw them was when she was finalizing her divorce from Dexter.

Why are they here?

Paul continued to mutter about a photo. Josie grabbed his hand. “What photo? Tell me about it.”

“A photo of Jo with her hair braided,” Paul replied very seriously. “I can't lose it...”

Josie paused. She roughly knew which photo Paul was referring to. She took out her phone, removed the phone case, and there it was, the tiny photo hidden underneath. Ever since she left two years ago, she had always carried it with her.

“Is this the one?” she asked, spreading it open in her palm.

Paul's eyes lit up as he immediately grabbed the photo, clutching it tightly in his hand. “It's Jo. I've found her!”

Afterward, he looked up, only to see Josie, whose face was full of sorrow. He froze. “Are you... Are you Jo?”

Even though it was a question, it nearly brought Josie to tears. “Do you recognize me now?”

Even though she knew that Paul's moments of lucidity were fleeting, she still held onto a sliver of hope. She grasped Paul's hand. “It's me, Jo from the photo. Do you recognize me?”

Paul glanced at the photo, then back at her, struggling to recognize her. He then tightly gripped her hand. “Jo, have you returned from university for the holidays?”

Josie's expression froze on her face. She took a deep breath, realizing something she should have known long ago.

“Yeah, I'm back for the holidays. I can spend quality time with you.”

At least, he still remembers Morgan.
