Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 1380

When Laura heard those words, her hand paused as she was picking up food.

Josie quickly grasped his underlying message. Looking at him with a hint of anticipation, she asked, “Is it possible?”

“Of course,” Mark responded.

“I've been quite busy these past few days, so I'm not entirely up to speed with the situation. I'll go over now and take a look.”

Josie rose quickly, grabbing her bag from the couch as she made her way out. She was still wearing the long rose-colored dress from earlier in the day.

Mark shook his head. “She's so eager.”

Laura was somewhat restless. “Dad, have you met the kid yet?”

“Indeed, I've met her. She's a very well-behaved little girl.”

“I didn't know that,” Laura replied, her expression strained.

Claudia served her some vegetables and said, “Didn't you also keep us in the dark about that girl before?”

Unable to argue, Laura nodded with a bitter smile.

When Russell Group was being investigated, the atmosphere in Russell Mansion was extremely tense.

Josie's car pulled up at the entrance of the mansion. Unexpectedly, she ran into Preston. He emerged from the mansion, his arms cradling a box of documents, ready to get into his car.

Josie briskly stepped forward, calling out his name loudly.

He came to a halt and turned around, squinting his eyes. “What are you here for?”

“The question should be directed at you. With Russell Group under investigation, how can you move around freely?”

“Thanks to you, before this, Mr. Russell had ordered me to take a leave of absence to reflect on myself, which conveniently caused me to miss the review.”

He seemed to express regret in his tone. Josie frowned. “Do you know the specifics?”

Josie became quiet after she heard those words. Mr. Peeple has yet to respond to my messages. I guess he has also been taken away. Well, everything makes sense now. Now, I know why Mr. Witherspoon said they would be targeting the financial aspect. Presumably, the investigation is focused on the financial situation in the past instead of the present. The origins of wealth are seldom untainted.
