Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 322

Chapter 322 Asking to Borrow Money

"You should eat something." Josie placed the sliced steak before Laura but did to explain why she did that. "You will face a lot more challenges from now on. How are you to face them if you won't eat?"

Laura looked at her suspiciously. "You're strange, Josie. Stop pretending to be nice. Don't you hate me?"

"Honestly, I don't," Josie answered frankly. She did detest Laura a bit, but it was only because she mistook Laura slandered her for plagiarism. Other than that, she had no reason to hate her.

"Why?"

"Apart from your self-inflated ego, unreasonableness, and arrogance, you are actually quite kind. Otherwise, you wouldn't have gotten yourself injured to save me." Josie smiled. "Perhaps you're a bit dumb, but I don't hate pretty bimbos."

Laura's expression darkened slightly. She could not tell whether Josie was complementing or mocking her.

"You're the dumb bimbo!"

Josie rested her face on her hand. "If you're unsure how to handle hospital matters, call me. I might not know much about other things, but I have dealt with hospital matters for years. So, I know a thing or two about every department in the hospital."

Laura reluctantly ate some food. Suddenly, Josie did not seem as annoying to her as before.

"Are you trying to show off?"

"Miss, who would want to show off about hospital matters?" Josie retorted in disbelief.

Laura was stumped. She paused briefly, saying, "Can you not tell Dex about my situation?"

Josie choked upon hearing her. "I don't have to say anything. He probably already knows…"

Laura widened her eyes in realization before smiling bitterly. "You're right. Everyone in Wavery probably already knows."

It was a harsh world and materialistic world. Everyone who had flattered Laura turned on after her family became bankrupt. She must have suffered from their disdain and abandonment.

Later, Josie went outside to wait for her ride. Laura remained in the restaurant and looked at her from the window. Her gaze seemed dazed.

She gripped her phone and hesitated for a long time before dialing a number. The call rang for a long time before someone answered, "Hello?"
