Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 783

Chapter 783 Loyalty Unswerving 

After parting ways with Dexter, life still had to go on. Josie understood that she should first settle down in Wavery, knowing that every subsequent event wouldn’t be easy. 

When she arrived at the studio, she found only a handful of employees at their desks, including Angel and Jade. Josie was somewhat surprised. “Why are there only a few of you?” 

Several people looked up in surprise. Among them, Angel was the most astonished, “Ms. Jo! You’re back!” 

The last time they met was a thing of the distant past. That moment felt as if it had spanned. lifetimes. 

Josie squeezed out a smile. “I just got back. Is everything okay?” 

During the time when Paul went missing, she devoted herself entirely to the search, completely unaware of the current operational status of the studio. 

Upon hearing that, several people exchanged glances, finding themselves in a bit of a predicament. 

Josie pulled out a chair and sat down. “It’s okay. Spill it.” 

“Quite a few colleagues have already resigned a few days ago. The situation at the studio isn’t good. Didn’t Ms. Brandel tell you?” Jade reported cautiously, “Now there are only four of us left in the studio, plus Alice, who’s out discussing collaborations, making it five.” 

Josie reminisced about the grand opening of her studio, and comparing it to the present, it really felt like people hardly had loyalty. 

She flashed a bitter smile. “I’m sorry. My issues have caused trouble for everyone.” 

She feared that if her personal information was dug up by netizens, it would inevitably involve her studio. Laura didn’t tell her because she didn’t want to upset her. 

Angel immediately waved her hand. “Ms. Jo, don’t say that. When the studio was doing well, you and Ms. Brandel never treated us poorly. Now it’s just going through a rough patch, but it will get better one day.” 

A wave of warmth surged through Josie’s heart. She felt grateful that in that cruel city, there were still people who supported her. 

“I don’t want to force anyone. If the pressure becomes too much, feel free to leave at any time. But if you’re still willing to believe in me, give me a chance. Stay, and let’s give it our all together,” Josie said.

When Josie said that, she was actually unsure. The current situation is far from optimistic. 

Angie was the first to stand up. “I’m willing.” 

Jade was the second one. “I’m also willing.” 

“I’m willing, Ms. Warren.” 

Even though there were only four people, and their voices weren’t loud, when they spoke, it was deafening. Josie nodded, expressing her heartfelt gratitude to everyone. 

Laura was surprised that Josie was still willing to stay at the studio. “You should be by Dexter’s side right now, helping him through this tough time. Don’t let others take advantage of his vulnerability,” she advised. 

Josie stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, talking on her phone. “Staying by his side will only make things harder for him.” 

After a prolonged silence, Laura sighed and said, “I have plenty of resources at my disposal right now, but Mark is always watching. Therefore, the options I can offer you are limited.” 

“I understand. Thank you.” 

After hanging up the phone, Josie received a project from Laura. She carefully read through. it and saw that the destination was Mandarin Oriental Hotel. The business partner was there, and she needed to negotiate that collaboration..
