The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 514

Chapter 514 Permanent Profit

Josie looked up and saw Arnold walking languidly toward her, dressed in casual clothes. He stood leaning against the bookshelf and spoke in a mocking tone.

She looked away and replied, “You shouldn’t have brought me away.”

I had stayed there a little longer, Mark might agree to meet me.

“I thought staying by Dexter’s side would make you wise. I didn’t expect you to be so naïve.” Arnold sneered before continuing. You should know what kind of person Mark is. He has authority over the whole city and has never experienced defeat. What makes you think he will give up a major project for you?”

Arnold said those words with resentment. At the same time, he felt guilty and concerned for her. However, he hid those feelings.

“But Mark didn’t start this project. It was Summer, right?” Josie panted as she looked into his eyes. “You joined forces with her, didn’t you?”

Arnold avoided her gaze and appeared stern. Josie, business is a battlefield. There’s no friendship, only shared profits.”

I understand. That’s why I never begged for your help even when things have come to this state. Meeting with Mark is my only hope.”

Josie’s thoughts were clear.

“Do you know Dexter submitted to Mark’s demands for Russell Group’s sake and met with Summer? He never respected you as his wife,” Arnold said frankly. “He only cares about profit. It’s pointless to sacrifice your well-being for him.”

Silence hung in the air between them and gradually felt suffocating.

Josie gripped the blanket tightly as if it was her lifeline. She forced down the indignance in her heart and replied, “You might think I’m stupid, but I believe husband and wife are one. That means I need to share his burden. Otherwise, how do I deserve to be called Mrs. Russell?”

Josie was doubtful and confident, stupid and clever. Arnold found it hard to believe all those qualities belonged to the same person.

He laughed despite his anger. “What are you going to do? Even if you get to meet Mark, what then? He will always side with his daughter. What makes you think he will help you just because you resemble Liana?”

Josie was rendered speechless. Her gaze turned dazed. “That’s my only bargaining chip.”

“I want to tell him that he will never regret choosing Russell Group. The value that Dexter can generate is far more than the immediate benefit before him.”
