Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 1332

Relationships of the past generation lasted a lifetime.

Josie wore a thoughtful expression, lost in contemplation.

Claudia glanced at her. “Have you made up with Dexter?”

Caught off guard by the sudden question, Josie paused for a while before saying, “What? No.”

“No? It must be soon, right?”

Josie remained silent, uncertain of how to respond to the question because she herself didn't understand what was going on between them either.

“When your father was rushed into the ER today, some of the best doctors in Wavery came to assist halfway through the surgery. Later, Dexter arrived. He didn't ask anything and went straight to you. I knew then that he must have arranged it all,” explained Claudia.

Josie clutched the hem of her clothes, mumbling to herself, “He sure gets news fast.”

Claudia scoffed lightly. “Get up and take a look.”

“What?”

“Look out the window.”

This entire building was made up of VIP wards. It wasn't very tall. Josie looked out the window and was surprised to see Dexter's modified car parked downstairs. It stood out under the streetlight.

The car window was half rolled down, revealing a glimpse of his profile. He was smoking, wearing a stoic expression.

Why is he still here?

“If you want to go, then go.”

“I don't want to...” Josie furrowed her brows, yet she couldn't ignore her feelings. Standing up and making her way out, she said, “I'm just afraid he might drop dead if he doesn't get enough rest.”

Claudia smiled, seeing right through her daughter.

The autumn night was rather chilly. Josie quickly descended the stairs, slightly out of breath. Her heart was pounding unusually fast, though she wasn't sure if it was because of the running or something else.

Her figure was particularly eye-catching in the night. When Dexter caught sight of her, she was jogging toward him. He immediately stubbed out his cigarette, opened the car door, and stepped out, “Jo, what's wrong?”

Struggling to catch her breath, Josie stopped in front of him. “Why... Why haven't you left yet?”

Four hours had already passed since the two of them had conversed in the stairwell. Dawn would soon break.

So she's here for me. Dexter felt a surge of joy in his heart, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips. “I stayed just in case anything happens and you need me.”

He's right.
