Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 802

Chapter 802 Can We Make Up 

“Yes, as I mentioned previously, I’ll be accompanying my mother for a while,” Heather gently reminded. Josie, prompting her to recollect their encounter at the entrance of Mason Garden that day. 

She indeed had said something similar to Dexter. 

Claudia was flipping through the bible, murmuring words as if she hadn’t heard their conversation. 

“I didn’t realize you were here. I’ll bring you another cup of tea later.” Heather stepped forward, placing the tea cup in front of the statue and Claudia then turned around. “Let’s step outside for now.” 

Josie had the same idea. 

The church was bustling with visitors, yet this particular area appeared surprisingly serene. Heather guided Josie along the winding corridor, with a sizable pond by their side. Lotus flowers adorned the pond, displaying a picturesque scene in full bloom. 

“This place was originally abandoned. It was only after my mother donated a considerable amount of money for its restoration that it was refurbished,” Heather explained. “This is also where I reunited with my mother.” 

Josie inquired calmly, “Reuniting with family must be an incredible sensation, isn’t it? When the day arrives that I locate my father, I imagine I’ll experience the same as you.” 

Heather contemplated for a moment, her gaze distant. “Certainly, but there’s still a distinction between. those connected by blood and those who aren’t.” 

She was insinuating about the relationship between Josie and Paul. 

Josie remained calm, looking toward the smoke curling up in the distance. “Do you have a wish?” 

Heather also looked over. “I don’t believe this.” 

“Do you believe that man can shape his own destiny?” 

“Of course.” 

“But what if some things are destined by fate, and no matter how hard we try, we can’t change them?” 

Heather slightly furrowed his brows, staring at Josie, trying to discern something from her faint smile, but to no avail. 

“I’ll be going now.” Josie had no intention of staying longer. Her steps had become noticeably lighter. 

“Josie,” Heather suddenly called out, a hint of urgency in her voice. “Will you and Dex make up?” 

It appeared that a lack of confidence spurred this question. Halting in her steps, Josie turned around and -remarked, “Who can predict what the future may bring?” 

Heather cautiously asked, “Do you still love him?” 

“But my love for him is futile. It only holds value if he loves me in return,” Josie said with a wry smile. 

In reality, she had no insight into Dexter’s thoughts, but her current response was evidently displeasing 

Heather.

Josie left. Heather stood still, watching her figure gradually fade away until it was completely out of sight. 

“What are you looking at?” A steady voice came from behind. It was Claudia who had come out. 

“Mother? I’m… I’m fine, just enjoying the scenery.” Heather quickly regained her composure, observing Claudia’s expression. “Josie’s behavior today is really strange. Did she say anything to you?” 

As Claudia walked out of the winding corridor, her expression was inscrutable. “I can’t discern anything special in her words.” 

Heather let out a quiet sigh. “But she told me she still wants to reconcile with Dex. Mother, you know he’s the only one I love.”
