Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter) novel Chapter 893

Chapter 893 Not Wanting Him To Leave 

Josie took the initiative and hooked her arms around the man’s neck, her eyes dark and sultry. “Stay here today. You’ve already been missing for several days, anyway. One more day of absence wouldn’t make a difference.” 

“Okay.” Dexter replied as he lowered his head and leaned his forehead against hers. 

Just then, his phone rang again, except this time, the call was from Claudia. Upon seeing the caller display, Josie fell silent. 

Dexter furrowed his brows, but eventually, he still answered the call. 

“Dex, I beg of you…” Claudia pleaded. 

Meanwhile, Josie clutched the corner of her shirt as chills ran down her spine. 

As soon as the call ended, Dexter picked up the umbrella, opened it over their heads, and handed it to her. 

“You’re drenched. Why don’t you head home for a bath so you don’t catch a cold?” Dexter suggested. 

Alas, Josie didn’t answer. 

“Her fate remains uncertain. I need to visit her out of consideration,” the man continued. 

Josie locked eyes with him. “When I was in Rivodia, my life was also hanging by a thread. It’s no big deal.” 

With that, Dexter placed the umbrella handle into her palm. “Be good. She’s frail and lacks the desire to live. I need to make this trip.” 

“Are you a doctor?” Josie retorted before taking a deep breath. “Do you really have to leave today?” 

When Dexter lowered his gaze, the woman quivered, her eyes cold and dark. 

Needless to say, Dexter couldn’t bear to see her like that and hastily grabbed her hand. “I’ll only drop by for a look, and I promise to be back tonight.” 

“Dexter Russell!” Josie choked out. “If she wanted to die, she wouldn’t have waited for you to be called. She’s gone to this extent because she wants to force you back to her side! You held. me earlier, and I stayed. Now, I don’t want you to leave. Will you stay?” 

Dexter’s brow knitted into a frown. “Russell Group still has tie-ups with the Olsen family.

Besides, we’re the reason she committed suicide. I can’t just abandon her.” 

Josie, however, only became more frustrated. “She has already become Liana Olsen, and the Olsen family doesn’t lack anything. You can either compensate her with money or restore her reputation. I’ll even apologize to her myself if all else fails. In any case, you’re not allowed. to leave!” she bellowed, the rage in her voice so intense that it was terrifying. 

I don’t care what it takes… I refuse to let Dexter get close to Heather any longer! 

By then, the car that Larry had arranged was already waiting at the alley entrance. Dexter glanced at it, his expression turning grimmer by the second. “Please try to put yourself in my shoes, Jo. This will be the last time.” 

A chill instantly ran through Josie’s body, and her hand slipped from the lack of strength. As much as she hated to admit it, she knew it was impossible to make Dexter stay. 

With that, the latter strode past her into the rain and climbed into the car’s backseat. 

Josie was finally snapped back to reality when the engine roared to life, prompting her to drop her umbrella and dash toward Dexter. Unfortunately, the car had already moved off, so she chased after it like an outlaw on a mission. 

“Dexter!” 

She wanted to tell him she was the real Liana, the girl he grew up with. She wanted him to know that Heather was lying and that he shouldn’t visit her. 

As Josie ran, tears and rain rolled down her face. One thing was for sure-never before had she felt such a strong urge to tell him the truth. 

However, the car was driving too fast, so no matter how hard Josie ran, she couldn’t keep up. When she eventually reached the corner, she tripped on a small stone and stumbled forward, crashing heavily onto the ground. 

“Ah-”
