Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 1029

Before leaving, Josie went to the studio to hand over her duties. It had been a while since her last visit. Alice had been managing most of the work there and had even hired new staff members.

The unfamiliar faces of the new staff members showed confusion as they asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Josie smiled and looked around. Just then, she spotted Alice, who exclaimed in surprise, "Josie! What brings you here?"

"I came to see everyone since I had nothing to do."

Alice quickly grabbed her hand and introduced her to everyone. "This is Ms. Warren, one of the partners of the studio and your real boss."

Several people greeted Josie at once.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Josie said, "Don't call me that. I won't be for long."

Alice's expression changed.

They went inside the office, and Josie continued, "I've heard about everything, but it's not enough for me to leave. The success of the studio is thanks to your constant supervision."

Upon hearing Josie's reason for showing up, Alice eagerly tried to persuade her to stay. Their friendship, which had started when they first began working together, had endured until now. It was not easily achieved.

Josie shook her head. "On the surface, this studio may seem like an investment by Laura and me, but in reality, you've contributed more than both of us. This is your hard work. After I leave, all the funds and resources under my name will be transferred to you. I hope you can continue to carry on."

Alice was taken aback by Josie's sincere words. She didn't understand. "I don't need any of this."

"I know, but you deserve it."

After a moment, Alice said slowly, "Since everything has become clear and things are starting to get better, why do you have to leave? Hasn't the Olsen family accepted you?"

The topic was sensitive, and Alice hesitated to ask. She carefully observed Josie's expression.

Haven't they accepted me? Not exactly. Josie's smile held a hint of bitterness. She still vividly remembered the guilt and regret in Mark's eyes when he took a knife for her.
