The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 457

Chapter 457 Heather Riley

Dexter sat in the waiting area, his eyes scanning the table. There was a stack of files piled high, each one labeled with a different name. He reached out and grabbed one of the files, but a woman’s voice stopped him before he could open it. “This…”

Dexter interjected right away, “Your name.”

He wasn’t asking-it was a demand.

“My last name is Riley. Heather Riley.”

Dexter didn’t pay any attention to her. He opened the file and scanned it quickly, trying to remember the details.

Heather had never encountered such a problem before, but she felt a sense of duty to protect his privacy as he had let her use his office.

She took a deep breath and said, “Mr. Russell, I will not allow you to review these confidential. documents. Regardless of your identity, you do not have the right to do so.”

She spoke with conviction, but her eyes were like shards of eyes.

Dexter closed the file and looked at her with an arched eyebrow. “Where’s Arnold?”

Heather’s inner alarms summoned Arnold back on time. Arnold strode through the door, flanked by his entourage. He scanned the room until his eyes landed on Heather, standing with her back to him. In front of her was another figure whose silhouette was obscured by

the shadows.

It was a unique figure in Wavery, unmistakable for anyone other than Dexter.

Arnold dismissed his subordinates and pulled Heather back by holding her hands. “Don’t scare her, Dex. She’s a bit of a scaredy-cat, Arnold scoffed.

Dexter smiled wryly. “It seems like I have to congratulate you,” he said.

“She’s just an office housekeeper, but I keep her around because she’s a good helper. Her name is Heather Riley.”

“We’ve already introduced ourselves.”

Heather leaned in closer to Arnold, and her brow furrowed in annoyance. “I was the only one who introduced myself,” she whispered.

Any woman would be infuriated if her husband put in so much effort to save another

woman.

Dexter twirled a ballpoint pen and, with a low voice, demanded, “You only have to tell me if it is possible.”

Arnold replied with a hint of a smile, his eyes sparkling with menace. There must be a condition for me to let go of something I’ve poured my heart into.”

“I’m not asking for this without giving something in return. I’ll share thirty percent of the profits from the project Wyatt handled with the Carter Group.”

The profits from Wyatt’s project were guaranteed to be large, which was significant compensation.

Arnold feigned indifference as he smiled, his lips curling into a smirk. “Vaste was never something I had to acquire. If you want it. I’ll give it to you.
