The Epic Blind Date with My Boss novel Chapter 718

Chapter 718 A Chance to Be Dex’s Brother-in-Law

The feud between the Carters and the Russells had deep roots, hence Scar’s intense animosity toward them.

As the words left Scar’s mouth, Arnold kicked him in the belly. “Keep yapping, and I might finish you off first!”

“Relax, man. Amidst the commotion, Dexter’s attention was snagged by faint makeup smudges on Arnold’s shoulder. They appeared to be imprints left by a woman resting against him.

He gestured to Leanne, who promptly handed him a cigarette.

Dexter extracted one and passed Josie a lighter, motioning for her to ignite it.

Josie’s nerves were taut and reluctant.

A faint smile tugged at the corner of Dexter’s lips. “Go on, light it.”

She hesitated for a moment before taking the lighter. With a snap, a spark of fire illuminated the sharp arch of the man’s brows and his eyes.

Smoke filled his lungs, and Dexter released a long exhale, finally easing a bit.

It had been a while since he had smoked. He’d promised to quit, and since then, he’d refrained from touching a cigarette.

Tonight was the first exception.

“I’m cool, no worries,” Arnold remarked as he took a tissue from one of his subordinates, wiping his fingers clean. “But did you switch personal assistants? I didn’t see Mr. May around today.”

Attention was refocused on Leanne.

Now being a part of the Olsen family, she no longer felt inferior, exuding confidence and handling the attention from others with calm composure.

“Oh? You mean Leanne?”

Dexter seized the opportunity to interject, “In case you didn’t know, you two are related. She’s your sister- in-law.”

Arnold arched an eyebrow, not denying it. “True, but who’s to say if I’ll ever have the chance to be your brother-in-law in the future.”

His implication was clear, and Dexter’s expression shifted.

Leanne stepped forward and said, “Mr. Carter, you’ve crossed a line.”

Josie was still present.

“He’s consistent like that, saying what’s on his mind or nothing. By the way, Ms. Olsen, I’m curious why you’ve come here today…”

Josie had reached her breaking point, unable to stand on the sidelines of the men’s showdown.
