Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 1009

"You're only nineteen this year, right? And you've already taken your driving test?" Mallory smiled.

Only then did Morgan look up, glancing at her through the rearview mirror. "I passed the exam after I turned eighteen."

He paused for a moment, then half-jokingly asked, "What, don't you trust my driving skills?"

Mallory gave a small laugh, leaning back in her seat and shaking her head. "No, you're driving just fine."

Suddenly, it began to rain outside. The car windows were covered with droplets. Mallory shifted her gaze away from Morgan, staring blankly at the neon lights outside that scattered light.

"It's going to rain for the entire upcoming week, so if you're planning to go out and have fun, you might have to wait for a while," said Morgan.

Mallory rested her head against the car window. Seizing the opportunity to talk to him and gaze at him, she asked, "Do you know who I am?"

Nineteen-year-old Morgan looked at her again. "Calvin's girlfriend."

Hence, they had known each other before.

Mallory lost interest and closed her eyes to rest.

Their paths had crossed just that once, and unexpectedly, it had been remembered by her.

At that moment, Mallory's expression underwent a subtle change. Having been caught in a compromising situation, her attitude toward Morgan also became incredibly nuanced.

Morgan didn't say a word, calmly withdrawing his gaze.

From a short distance away, Calvin was walking toward them.

Inside the hospital room, Justin had already made his way to Josie's side.

The latter's gaze was gentle. "Please sit. What would you like to drink?"

Justin's face was tense. He didn't respond. Consequently, Josie rose on her own, limping over to the water dispenser. She poured herself a cup of water, her hand trembling.

Justin abruptly took over, directly questioning, "You've always known your identity, haven't you? You've been using me all along."

He asked that question in the end. With so much having transpired, Pop hadn't shown up. He must have guessed it all. Josie clenched her fingers tightly, stating the truth. "He's gone missing."
