Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 127

Chapter 127 Marking His Territory 

A large hand fell on her shoulder as soon as she spoke, and Dexter’s voice was heard. “I am Jo’s husband, Dexter Russell.” 

It was a bolt from the blue. 

Matthew’s scrutinizing gaze turned vigilant. There was also very subtle malice. 

Josie raised her head, baffled. Tears were still in the corners of her eyes. She never thought Dexter would admit it in front of the medical team and Matthew, an outsider. 

“It’s you.” After a long time, Matthew laughed lightly. He reached out to shake Dexter’s hand. “I’ve heard Jo mention it.” 

In other words. Matthew was implying that he and Josie were good friends who knew everything about each other. Or perhaps they were more than friends. 

Upon hearing it. Dexter looked down. “Oh? I didn’t know that Mrs. Russell had such a good relationship with Dr. Sander.” 

The grip on Josie’s shoulder tightened, and her blood froze. However, this wasn’t the place to explain. 

Thankfully, nurses pushed Josie’s dad out of the operating theatre at this time. Josie found an excuse to leave. “Dad is out. I’m going to see him.” Since Dexter had started this mess, he could deal with it himself. 

Dexter was six feet tall and towered over Matthew slightly when they stood opposite each other. Dexter spoke in a deep voice. “Dr. Sander, I heard that you requested to join Paul’s medical team. You used to be his attending physician, so I approved of it. Thank you for your hard work.” 

Matthew looked to the side and saw Josie looking closely at her dad. “It’s my duty as a doctor. You’re very 

devoted too, Mr. Russell. The medical team is excellent. But it’s my first time. seeing you in three years.” 

A smile appeared on Dexter’s face. “You’ve never met me, Dr. Sander, but I’ve seen you. previously.” 

Matthew frowned. He didn’t remember. “Where have you seen me, Mr. Russell?” 

“At the business district near the hospital. You were eating with my wife at the time. What was it?” Dexter thought about it earnestly. “I think it was Italian food.” 

Matthew’s expression changed. He never imagined Dexter had seen him eating with Josie 

alone. 

“What tone are you using with me, Mr. Russell? I’ve known Jo for three years. Is there anything wrong with us having a meal together?” 

Dexter’s lips curved. “Of course not. I hope you can have a meal with both of us next time. It’ll be on me.” 

Matthew held his tongue and didn’t answer. He stared in Josie’s direction, looking captivated by her. 

Dexter silently blocked Matthew’s line of sight by stepping to the side. “Jo and I got married in a rush. I haven’t had time to come with her to the hospital, but I will come frequently after this. Dr. Sander, you can also talk to me if you need to speak with Jo.”
