Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1245

Even Josie, usually so oblivious, could feel it.

Josie cast a lingering glance at Laura. It was at that moment that she suddenly noticed across the street a familiar car parked. The window was halfway down, revealing a man's enigmatic face. He looked exceptionally cold. That's Dexter! When did he come back?

Josie's heart raced in an instant.

When Dexter came into contact with the stain on her clothes, he squinted his eyes. But within a few seconds, a cute and delicate girl emerged from his arms. She leaned against the car window, waving at Josie.

Grape! They're both here! Josie was surprised.

Perhaps due to being taught not to raise her voice, Grape only blinked at her, making faces to express her excitement upon seeing her mother.

Josie was lost in thought. Laura, who had already taken her seat, asked, “Aren't you coming in?”

Only then did she compose her expression and take a seat. Dexter didn't approach her directly. It seemed he didn't want outsiders to know. So, she decided to play along and act oblivious.

Immediately, she pulled out her phone, only to be shocked to discover that she had unwittingly sent out that photo a few hours ago. Dexter had responded in an instant.

He responded with a question mark.

After that, he added: On the highway back to Wavery.

She hadn't responded for a long time, so he sent another question mark.

There was still no response.

He texted: Is it inconvenient for you to reply?

He then texted again: I'm going straight to the hotel to find you.

Based on the time of the last message sent, Josie figured they had just arrived at the hotel. They saw us leaving as they pulled up, so they didn't bother going upstairs.

Unconsciously, Josie lowered her gaze, turning off her phone. Looking through the rearview mirror, he saw Dexter's car had already started, driving off in the opposite direction.

“Josie?” Laura's voice held a hint of impatience as she nudged her.

Josie found Laura to be quite peculiar. The people I care about are all in imminent danger, constantly under watchful, threatening eyes. I haven't even found stability yet, so where is this so-called good fortune supposed to come from?

By the time they returned to the Olsen residence, it was already evening. As the sunset painted the sky, Mark sat in the courtyard, sipping his tea.

As soon as Laura entered the room, she washed her hands and sat next to him to pour tea. She then began to meticulously report on the complex details of her work.

Using the excuse of needing to use the restroom, Josie momentarily excused himself.

As soon as the door closed behind her, she immediately dialed Dexter's number.

“Hey, Jo.” The man's voice was deep and gentle.

“Why did you bring Grape back? My dad—”

“I've also brought him back because Wavery offers superior medical facilities. I have connections both high and low here, making it convenient for him to receive care.”

Josie was taken aback. “What about Rivodia—”
