Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 1370

“We?” Morgan raised an eyebrow. “Let me ask you one thing. Is your father dead?”

“You!” Josie was furious.

“Arnold treated him well. You were the one who wouldn't let go!”

Josie was so angry that she was trembling, wishing she could give him a slap across the face. However, something suddenly dawned on her. “All these were never revealed to the public. How did you know?”

Morgan paused for a mere few seconds before saying, “Don't forget that I'm also from Rivodia. It's only natural that I know about these things.”

Josie stared at him. “Who exactly were those people just now?”

“What's wrong? Can't wait to tell Dexter?” Morgan sat down, his eyes filled with mockery. “Even if we can't become lovers, we can still be friends, right? At least show me some mercy.”

Josie was still trembling. “Why on earth must you do this?”

Morgan's expression became indifferent. “Just as you had to use me to gain a foothold in the Olsen family, I had to seize this opportunity to rise again. These connections are all I have left from my dad, and today, you've seen them all.”

The bulb over Morgan's head swung, casting a stark white light onto his face. In that fleeting moment, Josie glimpsed a shadow of desolation etched upon him, a profound loneliness that seemed unshakeable.

“Jo, please spare me. Don't tell anyone,” he said in a pleading tone, which was uncharacteristic for an influential man like him. Josie's heart melted when he grabbed the corner of her clothes.

“What will happen to Dexter?” she asked.

“You should worry about me instead,” he said.

She was puzzled by his response.

As the room quieted down, they could vaguely hear the commotion and liveliness from the mansion outside, which was like an entirely different world.

That night, Josie made numerous calls to Dexter, all of which went unanswered.

The show the following day was still held in the outskirts nearby.
