Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 785

Chapter 785 Hitting A Wall 

Looking up, he saw a woman in a white dress approaching quickly. She walked up to Zach and pulled his hand down. “What are you doing? You’ve caused trouble for me again.” 

It was unmistakably Heather. 

With a reluctant sigh, Zach put down his hand. “She deserves a slap.” 

With a sense of guilt, Heather looked at Josie. “I’m sorry. You should go ahead.” 

The playful expression on Josie’s face immediately vanished when she saw Heather. She glanced at Angel and headed straight for the elevator. 

She had barely taken two steps when Zach’s voice came, sounding impatient. “What are you here for?” 

“Today, I’m accompanying Dex to an event. I don’t need you stirring up trouble at this critical moment!” Heather’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was very clear. 

Angel looked up anxiously, only to see Josie’s face expressionless, as if she was unaffected.

Josie feit a bitter taste in her mouth, realizing that her current status was even more precarious than when she had nothing at all. 

“Ms. Warren, I have a solution,” the secretary said, unable to bear the situation any longer. 

“Please give me your advice.” 

“Go find Mr. Russell, plead with him, and ask him to give you some authority. Things will be 

easier to solve then.” 

Those words didn’t help at all. 

These people are all waiting for me to make a fool of myself. Josie found a place to sit and began to flip through the documents. 

The location of the land was tricky. Without an experienced and highly skilled design team. taking over, that project wouldn’t be handled properly. 

Josie was very confident. In the entire Wavery, there were only three teams, at most, with that capability, and hers was one of them. 

The other two companies were mostly industry leaders, not necessarily vying for that. project, so they were actually the top choices.
