The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 433

Chapter 433 Forfeit

“Are you here to bid on Dexter’s behalf? Did my daughter have something to do with it?”

Josie smiled and replied, “Mr. Russell is busy. He requested my help with this.”

Mark tapped his fingers on his knees and focused on her intently. His gaze made her uncomfortable. It felt like he was trying to look through her and find something…

 

However, Josie investigated Mark and discovered that he was loyal to his wife and was never involved in any scandal. Could he have secret lovers that no one knew?

Perhaps he loved someone who had left him for some reason or had passed away?

Since Mark remained silent, Josie raised her auction paddle and said, “Ninety-five million.”

Mark asked, “Do you want this item?”

Josie did not dare to move. “Mr. Russell wants it, so naturally, I want it too.”

“In that case, I will forfeit my bid.”

His sudden willingness to let go of the item surprised Josie. She felt a chill down her spine and was too apprehensive to be happy about it. “Mr. Olsen, thank you for forfeiting. I thank you on behalf of Mr. Russell. He will probably visit you soon to thank you in person.”

Mark kept staring at her with affection in his gaze. He fiddled with the rosary beads on his wrist. “Ms. Warren, you looked even more like someone I used to know in this dress.”

Josie sat straight and replied, “Mr. Olsen, it’s not good to dwell too much in the past. One should look to the future.”

Mark seemed not to hear her and appeared regretful. “If she were your age, she would have turned out just like you.”

His words prompted Josie to frown. It seemed the person he talked about was not an old flame but someone else.

Dexter had also mentioned that Josie looked like someone he knew.

She wondered if they were talking about the same person.

Before she could ask a question, the auctioneer shouted, “One hundred million going once. One hundred million going twice. One…”

Josie woke up from her daze and raised the auction paddle. “One hundred and ten million.”
