The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 37

“Sick?” Her colleagues exchanged glances. 

Josie initially did not want to create untrue stories about Dexter. But when she thought about how he took advantage of her this morning, she wanted to get back at him!

So she lied with a straight face. “Yeah, my husband has been kind of crippled since he was young, so he doesn’t like meeting people. Well, you know what men are like. They don’t like to feel inferior.”

As soon as Josie finished speaking, everyone was quiet. Their eyes were full of sympathy. Claire sneered, “You are such a saint for being willing to put the rest of your life in his hands.”

“Well, he loves me so much that he is willing to sacrifice his life for me. Love is wonderful. I only married him because we matched each other!”

Josie cupped her face with both her hands. She trembled while trying to hold herself back from laughing as she imagined Dexter being crazy about her.

“Mr…. Mr. Russell… Are you getting off work?” Alice’s voice trembled as she looked behind Josie.

Josie was still smiling as she responded. “Mr. Russell? What about Mr. Russell?”

However, as soon as she turned around, she saw Dexter in front of her.

He looked gloomy, like usual.

His hands were in the pockets of his tight black trousers. Josie felt slightly pressured when he looked at her from a higher angle.

Josie took a step back in surprise, but she accidentally tripped over the chair and fell awkwardly.

A chorus of laughter suddenly burst out in the office.

God save me! Why do weird things like this happen every day since I met Dexter?

Dexter glanced at the woman on the ground. A sparkle glinted in his eyes as he answered Alice, “I just happened to pass by. You all can get off work.”

He left as soon as he finished speaking. Ivy, who was behind him, hurried to catch up. After taking a few steps forward, he turned around. Josie had just gotten up and was rubbing her wrist.
