The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 450

Chapter 450 Letting Go of the Past

When Dexter returned to the table, Josie lifted her head from her arms and stared drowsily into his eyes.

His lashes were dark and long, and he bore an air of calmness.

They looked into each other’s eyes, and Josie felt a wave of love and understanding wash over her. She knew Dexter understood her, and she felt safe and loved by her husband.

After a long while, Dexter held her up by her arms. “Let’s go home,” he uttered.

Josie leaned on the wall filled with old vintage murals with her arms folded. She stared warmly towards Dexter, who was holding Owen’s arms, sending him back home.

From where Josie stood, she noticed Dexter placing a card into Owen’s pocket.

The two of them knew each other’s boundaries, and they respected those boundaries. Hence, they showed their care in small, subtle ways.

Owen held Dexter’s hands and stared knowingly at him with a mischievous smile. Josie, standing behind them, was oblivious to their exchange.

“I saw everything.”

“What did you see?” Dexter asked.

“I saw you exchanged your cards to let her win.”

He witnessed the moment when Dexter exchanged the cards in his hands and how his lips curled into a warm and genuine smile when he saw her jump in delight at her win.

Without denying his words, the corner of Dexter’s lips lifted into a smirk.

“She’s my wife. I’ll be happy as long as she’s happy.”

Owen held his hands and patted them. “Your mother came here a few days ago.”

Dexter fell silent.

“She said you’re a good kid, and you helped her when she needed it. Dex, have you forgiven her?”

“A good kid?” He repeated the words through his gritted teeth. “I might be a good kid, but I’m not a good son.

Letting Go of the Past

“Dex, you should try to understand her. She might have things she couldn’t tell you directly.”

“It has nothing to do with me,” he said with a dismissive wave of his hand as they reached the tattoo parlor. He turned and walked away, leaving Owen standing there.

When they left the alley, Josie turned around and glanced at the sign, trying to remember the name of the road.
