Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 17

Seeing her adamant attitude, Dexter left with his assistant without any other comments.

Josie sighed in relief and made her way to the surveillance room.

There, she found out that all the recordings from the morning had been deleted.

I should have thought of that! she thought in despair. That’s why Samantha and Mr. Davidson were so bold. Since they had already destroyed the evidence, they were confident I wouldn’t find anything.

‘Beep!’

Her phone rang. She checked her messages and saw that it was about the designs for the food packaging with Samantha’s name on them.

Josie tightened her fingers around her phone resentfully, but she could do nothing.

After work, Josie received Patrick’s timely message.

Since she was going to the dinner, she hailed a cab to Victoria Restaurant in Wavery.

“Josie, why aren’t you here yet?” Patrick asked sternly.

Looking at the traffic outside, Josie quickly replied, “I’m almost there. The traffic is heavy.”

“You have fifteen more minutes. If you’re not here by then, you have to bear the consequences.”

With that, he hung up, leaving Josie thunderstruck.

Since she was not that far from the restaurant, she opened the door and ran in its direction.

Not long after that, she heard someone beeping the car horn behind her. A familiar Maybach stopped in front of her.

“Mr. Russell!” she yelped in surprise. Why is he here?

“Why are you here?”
