The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 266

Chapter 266 You Owe Me a Favor 

Dexter gave a presentation on the research being carried out by the Russell Group to a packed function room of media personnel and company executives.

With free time on her hands, Josie accompanied Alice to the thirty-second floor of the building to watch the event.

She saw many familiar faces there.

Among the crowds, she spotted the main character of the day. Dexter, a man with a respectable and noble demeanor, stood out from the rest. His eyes were sharp and watchful, and the corner of his lips curled up in a forceful smile.

“Have you seen the rumors about Mr. Russell living together with a woman? Remember? The one that looks like you? I’m so jealous of her. What does it feel like to be loved and cared for by Dexter Russell?”

Josie felt a wave of unease wash over her. Loved and cared for? Not by him. He only knew how to torture her.

Josie watched from the sidelines as Dexter confidently answered the media’s questions. He used highly professional language to highlight his intelligence and wit as he stood under the spotlight.

Dexter’s outstanding presentation had Josie spellbound. She was brought back to reality by the thunderous applause of the crowd. She clapped along with them, a corner of her lips lifting in a smile of admiration.

As he finished his presentation, Dexter glanced around the room and caught sight of Josie standing in the

corner.

His eyes

widened in disbelief, but he quickly regained his composure, knowing that the crowd was watching him.

After a short moment, Josie felt a buzz from her handphone. You’re not allowed to drink!

Upon receiving the text, Josie switched her red wine to a cup of orange juice.

Josie wandered aimlessly around the room, her mind elsewhere. She noticed several of the executives. Dexter introduced to her at the last event they attended together.

As she passed by, the executives locked eyes with her and smiled respectfully. They were unable to greet her personally, but they raised their glasses in a silent toast.

Josie’s phone buzzed again. She glanced down at the screen and saw a text message from Dexter: ‘Don’t go too far. I’ll pick you up after the event.

Josie typed back, ‘Alright.’
