The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 468

Chapter 468 Afraid of Her Getting Pregnant

 

However, Dexter had always been adept at concealing his secrets. Despite his honesty with her, she couldn’t be certain if he held affection for other women.

Upon hearing this, Dexter grinned and casually tightened the ointment lid. He asked calmly. “What exactly do you mean by “liking”?”

Josie pondered momentarily before blurting out, “Liking’ someone is when your heart races at the sight of your crush, and you want to give them the best of everything. Even before being in a relationship, you’ve lost count of how many times you’ve fallen in love.”

Unbeknownst to her, Dexter’s expression darkened. “You have quite an understanding.

Josie was taken aback. It suddenly dawned on her that she hadn’t used the word “liking’ in a long while.

“No…”

Dexter had no intention of discussing it with her. Perhaps in his eyes, they couldn’t broach such an innocent subject.

Instead, it was Dexter’s next move that provided Josie with the answer she was seeking. He pulled out a medicine bottle and poured two white pills into his palm, offering them to J “Take these.”

Josie was taken aback, staring at the pills in her hand. “What are these?”

Dexter remained silent.

Josie had an epiphany. Dexter had always been cautious in their relationship. Considering they hadn’t used protection earlier, it made sense for him to offer her the pills.

It dawned on Josie that this was a routine occurrence, nothing out of the ordinary. Perhaps she was even more reluctant to have children than Dexter. However, at that moment, she found herself frozen, gazing at Dexter with a perplexed expression. “Not taking them once won’t make me pregnant.”

Dexter held his hand steady, silently insisting Josie take the pills.

Josie nodded and swallowed the pills without water, flashing a mischievous smile. “You’re so scared of me getting pregnant with your kid, huh.”

Dexter’s hand holding the water glass froze in mid-air as he tried to decipher her thoughts from her expression. The words he wanted to say remained stuck in his throat.

 

“Don’t worry, I’m not that naïve, alright. Even if I accidentally get pregnant, I won’t use it against you. I still want to live my life freely,” Josie reassured him, lying in his embrace, seemingly unfazed.

Did she mean that she felt trapped and confined by my side?

Her implication stirred up frustration in Dexter. He had asked her to take the pills because he had been drinking and smoking a lot lately. It wasn’t the right time for a pregnancy. But she seemed to misunderstand his intentions and uttered words that wounded him.

At that moment, he completely disregarded the vulnerability he had glimpsed in her eyes just moments before. Yes, she appeared so carefree. How could she possibly care about the child they might have together?
