Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 Dexter Might Not Like Me 

She turned her gaze, propping herself against the couch to observe Dexter. The morning light streamed through the tall windows, casting a golden glow upon his brow. Josie finally understood why people said that men dedicated to their work were the most attractive. 

She pondered for a moment but refrained from voicing her thoughts. 

Ivy returned to the secretary’s office, and several people noticed her troubled expression. They couldn’t help asking, “What’s wrong? Did Mr. Russell lose his temper?” 

“I would rather he lose his temper, honestly,” Ivy forced a smile. “it’s nothing.” 

She was walking towards the pantry to pour water when her phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, she immediately answered, lowering her voice to reprimand, “What do think you’re doing?”

Leaning against the door, Josie shrugged innocently. “Oh, Ms. Miller, you were taking too long grabbing that glass of water. I thought I could save you the trouble and come over myself. Hope you don’t mind.” 

Ivy’s heartbeat hammered repeatedly, and she quivered, “…You heard.” 

Her voice tightened, and Josie laughed, her body trembling with mocked amusement. However, a seething rage was consuming her inside. “I never expected that you were the one that was behind all these, Ms. Miller. You disguised it so well, without a single flaw.”

“I believe you,” Josie responded quickly. 

“You… you believe me?” Ivy’s voice cracked, unable to believe her words.
