Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1238

After watching the competition, it was already past ten in the evening. The contestants still had follow-up interviews and activities to attend, so Josie didn't disturb them.

She checked her phone several times within a minute.

After receiving a phone call, Mallory said that she had an urgent matter to attend to and had to leave early. Josie took a taxi back to the Olsen residence. Not long after she left, her cell phone rang.

It was unmistakably Dexter on the line. She had never answered a phone call this quickly before.

“Hey, where is Grape?”

Grape had been on edge for quite a while and hadn't slept in a long time. So, when she finally fell asleep, she slept straight through to the evening. When she woke up, Dexter was already on a video call with Josie.

The camera swayed for a moment before finally settling on Grape in her hand. She was incredibly adorable, waving at Josie on the phone screen. “Mommy, good evening!”

Josie's heart settled back into place, heaving a sigh of relief. “Good evening. What have you all been up to while I'm not around?”

Grape evidently glanced at Dexter's spot, obediently responding, “I was sleeping.”

Josie was somewhat puzzled. She then heard Grape asking, “Where are you, Mommy? I miss you. When are you coming back?”

At this question, Josie was momentarily at a loss for words. She gently and patiently explained, “I've told you I'm away on a business trip. For now, it's just you and Daddy. While I'm gone, I need you to help me take good care of Grandpa, okay?”

Grape rubbed her eyes, her voice adorable. “Okay.”

With Josie's soothing words, the once restless Grape calmed down. It wasn't long before she happily went off to play with Justin.

Dexter took the phone, his face appearing on the front camera. Despite showing signs of fatigue, he was almost flawlessly photogenic.

His voice was deep when he asked, “Are you outside?”

When the two were alone, Josie felt a bit tense. “Well, I went to watch the competition with Mallory.”
