Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 1099

"It wasn't me who kidnapped Paul," Scar slowly opened his eyes. "Back then, he only trusted people he knew and was highly cautious of strangers."

Josie was aware of this. That was why her curiosity was aroused. She wondered how they managed to abduct Paul right from the bustling city district.

"The one responsible for this matter was Xanthe."

The moment the name was mentioned, it hit Josie like a sudden shock, leaving her frozen in place.

Dexter's eyebrows furrowed slightly. Although he didn't show much of a reaction, it was clear that he was taken aback. He almost crushed the teacup in his hand.

"None of us had any influence, but Xanthe did. All she needed to do was to tell Paul that she was Dexter's biological mother. For your sake, Paul would surely go with her."

Scar could still vividly recall the scene from that day.

On a street by the sea, Paul patiently waited, anticipating his daughter's arrival. However, at that moment, Xanthe tapped on the car window. "You must be Paul, right?"

"And you are?"

"My name is Xanthe, Dexter's mother. It's nice to finally meet you."

Over the years, Xanthe's demeanor was beyond question, especially with her eyes that were as indifferent as Dexter's.

Later, Xanthe told him that she wanted to have a private discussion with him about the matters concerning their two children.

After Scar finished speaking, he looked at Josie. "It's as simple as that. Paul just left with her."

Josie couldn't help but let tears slide down her cheeks. It's all because of me that Pop disappeared. He wants me to be treated well in my husband's family. That's why he chose to leave with Xanthe.

Josie was almost out of breath, and the grip on the knife in her hand inevitably loosened.

"You people are shameless!"

She composed herself, then tightened her grip on the knife once again. "What happened next?"

"What do you mean?"
