The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147 The True Culprit Emerges. 

When the bathroom door opened again, Josie had fallen asleep.

She slept in the corner of the bed, and one of her hands held tightly to the corner of the covers. She looked worried.

Dexter sighed in exasperation. He subconsciously pushed her to the middle of the bed before tucking her in.

She slept well that night.

Josie hadn’t known how to deal with sleeping in the same bed as Dexter again, but she fell asleep unknowingly. She woke up and realized that the bed was empty. Only the indentations on the bed and the residual warmth indicated to her that he had slept there.

When she looked at the time, it was ten o’clock.

After Josie washed up, she went downstairs. Marilyn was bustling in the kitchen. “I’m sorry, Marilyn. I overslept.”

Marilyn smiled. “You’re injured. It’s only natural for you to sleep in.”

The herbal tonic Marilyn brewed today included wolfsbane and dandelion, but it wasn’t bitter. Marilyn had excellent skills, and Josie drank it happily. “Please make more for me next time. I want to take some to the hospital for my dad.”

“Sure. Can your father drink it?”

“I can fill a syringe with the herbal tonic, then feed it to him through his gastric tube.”

“… It must be tough.” Marilyn looked at Josie, distressed. Marilyn sighed. “It’s alright. With Dex around, everything will be alright in the future. Is he coming back for dinner?”

Josie choked on the herbal tonic. “He…” Is he coming back? “He should be.”

“What do you mean by that?” Marilyn was displeased. “Doesn’t he usually tell you if he’s coming back?”

“No, I didn’t mean that. Sometimes Dexter is busy, and there are unexpected situations. I can’t say precisely.”

Marilyn nodded, confused. “Dex has no other way. Don’t blame him.”
