Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 1408

“Did I push you into it? Wasn't it your own choice?”

“That's enough, Dad. I'm sure you're overthinking it. Jo and that guy are history, he's not the one she likes.” Laura tried to mediate the situation. She smiled and asked, “Jo, am I right?”

“Of course not.”

Claudia came out with a plate of fruit. “Laura, no need to persuade them. Look at them, they're becoming more like father and daughter.”

Not in the sense of filial piety, but in the sense that they argued and bantered, yet neither took it to heart.

Upon hearing this, Josie felt there might be some truth to it. She felt a little embarrassed for a moment and turned her face away.

When Mark caught sight of it, his smile turning into a smirk. His smile abruptly disappeared when Zach entered the gate. “Stop right there.”

A man who looked like he'd been up all night flippantly stood at the door. “What's up? Are you not letting me come home?”

“Do you even remember that this is your home? Where were you last night?”

“A bar?”

“Mr. Murray called me yesterday and said you stirred up some trouble. He had to sort it out in the middle of the night! What on earth happened?”

“Just a minor dispute,” Zach replied impatiently. “Why did Mr. Murray tell you about it?”

“I'm your father. Who else will he inform if not me? With your antics every day, the reputation of the Olsen family will be ruined sooner or later. Zach, what do you want? If you don't like being here, then get out and go abroad!”

“You've already playing the role of someone else's father. Don't try to educate me...” Zach muttered under his breath.

“You!” Mark was furious. He picked up a coffee cup from the table and threw it. “Get lost! As far as you can!”

Zach gave Josie and Laura a strange look, then left without hesitation.

Mark lay back in his seat, upset. Grape climbed onto him and patted his chest. “Don't be mad, Grandpa!”
