Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 562

Chapter 562 We Would Still Have Kids 

Dexter reached out to grab it, but she skillfully dodged, smirking at him. His elongated frame seemed out of place. 

That shirt he wore was worth a fortune. 

Dexter’s face looked pallid from his illness, yet he still exuded a captivating aura. 

“You are ill. You can’t drink or cat skewers. You can only watch me eat,” Josie said curtly. 

“I am not going to eat. Dexter replied, unfazed by her reluctance. 

“I’ve made soup.” 

“No time for that. You’re leaving in a bit. 

Josie pondered and agreed with his statement. 

She drank from the soda can, sip by sip. She scowled at the bitter taste, but it left a lingering sweetness as an aftertaste. Despite the alluring aroma and steam rising from the sizzling skewers, Dexter refrained from taking a single bite. 

He secretly watched as the delicate woman fearlessly devoured the skewers and gulped down beer. 

It was a sight he rarely witnessed from Josie. 

After getting married, she shed her carefree spirit and embraced the role of a composed and poised Mrs. Russell. 

Amidst the billowing smoke, his gaze lingered on Josie, enraptured by her reveling in newfound joy and freedom. 

A bitter pang surged through him. He fumbled in search of a cigarette, only to realize he had none. 

Dexter asked cautiously, “Was what you said true? Will you allow me to assist you in your studio?” 

Josie’s face flushed, and replied, “Why don’t you ask me why I was in the mountains?” 

Dexter earnestly said, “I was told that you had gone to Rivodia. My team searched for extensively but couldn’t find you. So, you stayed in Wavery, is that right?” 

He had an inkling that Rivodia was a mere diversion. 

you there 

Though Josie didn’t know how he discovered her presence in Rivodia, she could only imagine his immense frustration after an exhaustive yet futile search. He would likely have turned Rivodia upside down in his pursuit. 

She smiled and nodded, “I was in the church in Sousturham.” 

A sudden realization struck Dexter. He could never have guessed that Josie went there. 

“I spent two months there, observing strict vegetarianism and reciting scriptures, mourning our first child’s loss.” 

Dexter’s whole body stiffened; a sour tinge traveled in his nostrils.
