The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 668

Chapter 668 But You Left First

“I already said no.”

Josie felt no obligations toward Morgan in any way, “You left first, so you have no right to question me.”

There was a moment of silence on the other end, and only heavy breathing could be heard.

After a while, Josie was finally released from Dexter’s grip, which had now turned cold.

She grew impatient and said, “There’s nothing left for us to talk about. Bye.”

Josie was quick and decisive, but she caught on to Morgan’s last words before hanging up, “Does Dexter know that I’m the one who taught you to play the piano?”

She observed Dexter standing tall in the chilly wind, still bogged down with the phone call.

Dexter had no inkling of the situation, and she wondered how furious he would be if he learned the truth.

She walked up to him and heard Dexter say to the other end of the phone, “Keep an eye on it, and make sure there are no mistakes.”

As the call ended, he turned around, and his cold expression hadn’t yet softened when he met Josie’s innocent face. Both froze for a moment.

Josie was equally taken aback. Her prepared words momentarily choked up, “What’s going on? You look upset.”

Dexter lowered his eyes, his tone visibly softened, “Just some petty company matters.”

Josie was perplexed but slightly nodded, choosing not to press the issue.

Dexter pulled her closer. She glanced at him, wanting to say something but hesitated, “Dex…”

“Hmm?” He waited expectantly for Josie to express herself.

However, observing Dexter’s continued sullen demeanor, Josie deduced that he must be under immense work pressure. Suppressing her urge, she shook her head and said, “It’s okay. It’s getting too chilly out here; let’s head home.”

Dexter let it slide.

Josie made a mental note to explain everything to Dexter when the right opportunity arose.

As the New Year drew near, Paul grew restless at Mason Garden and expressed his desire to go for a walk. Josie had to accompany him to the supermarket to buy ingredients for the upcoming celebration.

With some free time, Paul seemed more relaxed. “Will Mr. Russell’s grandfather join us on New Year’s -Eve?”
