Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 1333

Dexter was forced to swallow. He took a sip of water, but before Josie could breathe a sigh of relief, his large hand pressed against her head, drawing her closer. Their lips met as the cool water was shared between them. The liquid caught in Josie's throat, making her want to cough.

He pressed her tighter against him, not allowing her to pull away, so she could only release muffled groans.

After about three minutes, the man finally showed mercy and released her.

Josie immediately went into a coughing fit. Pulling out a tissue, she coughed for quite a while before she finally regained her composure. “Dexter, you brute! I almost died, do you even realize that?”

Smirking, Dexter said, “The medicine I just took was red sage tablets. You wouldn't die.”

Josie paused, only realizing the taste in her mouth after a moment.

“No wonder it's so bitter.”

Dexter always wore a somber expression, yet whenever he looked at her, his eyes were always tinged with playful delight.

“How is Mark doing?”

“He's still not awake and probably won't be until tomorrow.”

As Josie spoke, she carefully put away the medicine box. “I need to go back now; you should too. There's no need for you to suffer alongside me.”

She was clearly touched, yet the words she spoke were not what Dexter wanted to hear.

Dexter's gaze immediately darkened. “What did you say?”

“Well, there truly is no need. We don't really have any connection now.”

Once again, she was distancing herself.

Upon seeing Dexter laugh, a sound both light and hoarse, Josie sensed that something was amiss. However, by the time she realized it, it was already too late.

Dexter grabbed her wrists, moved them over her head, and pinned her directly against the car door, causing her back to press against the chilly window.

He glared at her, his aura heavy with intensity.

“What are you doing?” Josie sensed danger.

“You think you're quite capable, don't you?”
