Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 55

Josie kept checking the situation outside and barely slept the whole night.

Thankfully, Justin did not show up at all that night.

At daylight, Nicole came out of the hotel carrying a bag and hailed a taxi to head to the transportation hub.

Josie thought of waking Dexter up. But when she turned to him, she realized he had already opened his eyes and was looking at her.

She felt goosebumps from his gaze. “Erm…”

Dexter pressed his brow and instructed the driver, “Follow that car.”

The early morning air in Wavery carried a hint of saltiness of the sea. Soon, there were more cars on the road and people moving about. Josie stretched her waist and felt aches all over her muscles and joints. Since her body ached, she could imagine it must be worse for Dexter, who was used to a life of comfort.

The thought made her feel even more remorseful.

After quietly escorting Nicole to the transportation hub, the driver turned to Dexter and asked, “Mr. Russell, would you like to return to Mason Garden or the company?”

Dexter considered briefly and answered, “The company.”

Josie only dared to suggest softly, “Perhaps you should go home and rest this morning.”

She was all right because a social animal like her was used to staying up late. However, she was concerned that Dexter would get sick.

Dexter snorted and responded sarcastically, “Will you be helping me with my work?”

Josie had nothing to say. She knew she could not handle his work.

As the head of a publicly listed company, every second of his working hour was valuable. After all, every department waited for his decision. Thus, Dexter had to go to work.
