Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 137

Chapter 137 Solved It for Her 

He put both hands into his pocket. “There’s no harm. I’m going to take a look.” 

It was a minor meeting, but the woman had been a nervous wreck yesterday. Dexter couldn’t help but smile when he thought of Josie’s tone. 

On the twenty-seventh floor, a group of people were gathered at the entrance of the meeting. room. He stopped. “Has the meeting started?” 

Claire looked at Ivy, who was behind Dexter. Claire was sweating profusely. “Mr. Russell? Why are you here?” 

“I’m asking you a question.” 

No one thought Dexter would attend the meeting, so they left one by one. 

Jo… Josie isn’t here yet.” Claire didn’t dare to raise her head. 

Ivy stood upright and asked in surprise. “What did you say? It’s ten o’clock. Where is she?” 

At this time, Alice came out of the meeting room. Her legs immediately felt weak when she saw Dexter. Oh no. Josie is done for this time.

“We meet again, Riley.” Dexter extended his hand. 

“Why are you here, Mr. Russell?” Riley Spence, who was in charge of the Sylmark project, stood up, surprised upon seeing Dexter. 

Other leaders around Riley also stood up. Most of them felt impatient from waiting but never expected Dexter to appear. 

“How is our coffee? We’re sorry for making you wait.” 

Riley shook Dexter’s hand and sighed with a laugh. “Your employee must be important since we must wait for her, Mr. Russell.” 

Dexter admitted it with a faint smile. “The employee suddenly met with a mishap, so she can’t attend today’s meeting. I apologize on her behalf. I will buy everyone a meal next time to make amends. I hope you can understand.” 

Everyone cried out in surprise. “A mishap? What…”
