Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1180

“Which port are they departing from?”

“Primus Port. They have hidden the goods inside the onions.

As Scott spoke those words, Josie happened to emerge from the bedroom. Her face was bare, and she was dressed in a simple nightgown, appearing gentle and serene. He hesitated for a moment before saying, “Sending Ms. Warren into battle on the ship? Wouldn't that be inappropriate?”

Josie turned his head, “Sergeant Buncho, is it that you lack confidence in me, or is it your colleagues you don't trust?”

Scott chuckled. “I am well aware of your capabilities, Ms. Warren. I'm just being cautious, just in case.”

Dexter never once lifted his head.

Leaning halfway against the foyer between the kitchen and the living room, Josie said, “I still have value to Arnold, so he wouldn't harm me. Under these circumstances, it's best if I go.”

After saying that, she glanced in the direction of Dexter, his expression unreadable, his emotions inscrutable. Only a bone-deep chill emanated from him.

Scott indicated his understanding, then turned his gaze toward Dexter and asked, “Mr. Russell, did you not rest well last night?”

Upon hearing this, a jolt of shock ran through Josie's heart.

Dexter simply retrieved a pack of cigarettes from under the table, broke the seal, and said, “Sergeant Buncho, please ask your colleagues in Wavery to call off the police dispatch.”

Scott was taken aback. “Why?”

He held a cigarette between his lips, gesturing toward Josie as he replied, “It would expose the undercover's identity.”

Josie pursed her lips, indeed, if Arnold knew about the police in Wavery, he would certainly suspect her.

Scott glanced at Josie, belatedly understanding what he meant. “Then I'll go back and report this. I'll communicate with my colleagues in Rivodia.”

“Don't do that. There's no need to alert them. I trust them,” Josie said.

Dexter had already lit his cigarette, his eyes indifferent. They both understood what it meant.

Once the news was leaked, it was highly likely to alert the enemy.
