Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 1389

It was a woman.

She looked sweet and innocent, with the latest Chanel bag draped over her shoulder. She seemed quite nervous as well, as she couldn't help but fidget with her fingers.

“Angel,” Josie greeted.

“Ms. Jo...”

It turned out that she wasn't dining alone with Morgan. Instead, they were a group of four.

Ryan and Angel sat across from her. They exchanged glances for a while and only then did she finally call the waiter over. “Let's order first.”

The meal was not a pleasant affair. Seizing the opportunity to have a smoke, Morgan lured Ryan away, leaving Josie and Angel at the table.

Angel was somewhat restless. She lowered her head and said, “Ms. Jo, I know you're unhappy with my choice.”

Josie was really hungry. While eating, she asked, “What choice? What right do I have to be unhappy with your choice?”

Angel lowered her head even further. “I did break up with Ryan at that time. But when something happened to my family, he was the only one who stepped forward to help.”

“You don't have to explain all this to me.” Josie glanced at her. “I wanted to see you not to interrogate you. I just wanted to ask, are you happy now?”

The innocence that once resided in Angel's eyes two years ago was no longer there. Instead, what filled them now was an overwhelming weariness built up over time.

“I am. After marrying him, I don't have to work anymore. All I need to do is to take care of our home. I mean, look at me. I look good, right?”

Josie gave a slight nod, holding back the flood of words she wanted to say. All she managed to utter was, “As long as you're happy, that's all that matters.”

Upon hearing this, Angel couldn't help but choke up.

“Over these years, I've often dreamed of you. I know I've let you down, and I've also disappointed myself. But... I really had no choice. I'm not as fortunate as you. Ryan is the best opportunity I could grab onto.”

Josie found it somewhat hard to swallow her food.

She pulled out a tissue and wiped her fingers clean.
