Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 1121

She wrinkled her nose and turned around, only to find Arnold leaning against the door, a smirk playing on his lips.

"You're not getting any younger. Don't drink yourself to death."

He smirked. "Taking care of me, huh? What have I done to deserve this?"

Josie glared at him, pulling out a voice recorder from her bag. "I'm just afraid that if you die, there'll be no one to give me the medicine."

Arnold's gaze fell upon the object in her hand, "It seems you have seen Paul's frail state."

"Indeed. Thanks to you, I had no choice but to coax the words out of Dexter."

Josie pressed the play button on the voice recorder, and a somewhat muffled voice began to echo out.

The scene was from the previous night when she had finished writing the proposal on the balcony. Dexter had poured her a cup of warm water, and they had exchanged a few words about Grape. Then, with some hesitation, Josie asked, "I remember that you almost apprehended Edward two years ago. Didn't the authorities care? He is a serious criminal after all."

Dexter was very cautious. "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

Josie answered evasively, "After seeing Arnold this time, it all came back to me."

"I obviously had no authority to detain Edward. All I can tell you is that he's no longer under my control."

After Dexter finished, a series of footsteps followed, marking the end of the recording.

Arnold voiced his thoughts. "Did you come to me this early in the morning just to have me listen to such an ambiguous recording?"

"Of course not."

She pressed play on the second recording.

This time, the sound of Dexter's voice seemed somewhat distant as he was engaged in a conversation with Larry.

"Can you investigate what Arnold told Josie?"
