Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 522

Chapter 522 She Was Exhausted 

Josie could not describe her emotion as she faced him, but it felt so overwhelming that she could not speak. 

Although she did not blame him, he would never understand the despair she had experienced. 

Seeing her silence, Dexter snatched her health report from her and deciphered the doctor’s messy handwritten notes on the results of her treatments. 

The check-up revealed that she was recovering well. 

Josie sighed softly and took the report from him. “There’s nothing much. I only have to finish my antibiotics 

Dexter and Josie each had an unusual presence. They soon attracted much attention as they stood together. 

He could not help but notice that she lost much weight. 

“Let’s get another check-up to be safe. I should have taken better care of you.” 

Josie wanted to laugh and soon found herself laughing. “Dexter, I’m fine.” 

They suddenly became like strangers or dance partners meeting for the first time. Both were unsure about how to face each other or how to dance so that they step on the proper steps. 

Dexter was riddled with endless guilt. He carefully lowered his posture and tried to hold her hand. “”“Will you please come home with me?” 

Josie had missed Dexter in their days apart, but now that they had finally met, she felt lost about what to do. 

Can I ignore the hurt and pain I’ve gone through and pretend that they don’t matter? 

She could not figure out her feelings. Thus, she shook her head and replied, “I don’t want to follow you home yet. Can you give me some time alone?” 

Dexter was reluctant. His eyes darkened with thought. He was usually proud and sure of himself. Josie had never seen him so lost and uncertain. 

“You” 

Josie had never felt as tired as she did now. Being Mrs. Russell drained all her energy 

“Sure, you can have some time alone. You can contact me whenever you wish to see me.” Dexter gradually let go of her hand. 

– He watched Josie gradually walk out of his sight. Her warmth faded rapidly from his hands. It felt like she 

had completely removed herself from his life. 

Dexter stood still for a long time. The wind blew at his coat. He seemed forlorn standing there by himself. 

Josie walked for a long time, unsure where she should go. She wanted to go to her father, but she knew he would ask many questions if he saw her present state. She did not want to worry him. 

Thus, she walked around for a while before going to Sousturham. She did not head to Russell Mansion to visit Henry but went to a church instead. 

Claudia was surprised to see Josie. “Miss, what brings you here? My goodness. Why have you gotten so thin?” 

Josie squeezed out a smile. “Claudia, can I stay with you for a few days?” 

“Of course!” 

Dexter returned to Russell Group the following day. 

Russell Group employees had not seen Dexter for some time and were impressed and comforted by his stern and powerful presence as he walked past them.
