Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1377

This statement greatly pleased Claudia. She laughed, her eyes crinkling at the corners. “Then you can assist me.”

The servants were all somewhat taken aback. Josie carried out her tasks efficiently, exhibiting none of the airs one would expect from a daughter of an elite family.

The water trickled softly, and in Claudia's hands was a ball of dough. She glanced at Josie and said, “You seem troubled. Your complexion is off.”

Josie was taken aback. “Is it that obvious?”

“It's practically written all over your face.”

Josie was somewhat embarrassed. “I suppose you all know that the investigation team is investigating Dexter, and I'm a bit worried.”

“It seems there are still feelings involved.”

This jest made Josie even more embarrassed, causing her to speed up her vegetable washing.

“Grape is still with him. What I'm worried about is the child.”

“You're incapable of lying,” Claudia stated. “Even an outsider can tell that there are lingering feelings between the two of you.”

“That night, when I traveled from Olsen Residence to the hospital, I saw that young man standing under the streetlight, refusing to go upstairs. His hesitation was no different from what you're displaying right now.”

That day, when Claudia took the initiative to ask, the usually composed man seemed like a bashful adolescent in front of her, feeling somewhat embarrassed as he respectfully addressed her as Mrs. Olsen.

“Are you here to see Leanne? Why don't you go up? She's in,” Claudia said.

Dexter lowered his head, his voice soft and gentle. “We had a disagreement. It upset her.”

Claudia couldn't help but laugh. “A woman needs to be pampered. If you don't appease her, how do you expect her to forgive you?”

Dexter didn't confirm whether it was right or wrong. He pulled out a document from the car and said, “Could you deliver this to her for me? It's getting late. She should get some sleep soon.”

Through the transparent shell, one could discern the densely packed script within.
