Blind Date Turned Proposal novel Chapter 947

Josie observed him finish eating and then examined herself.

He asked, "Would you like some?"

Josie shook her head. "Your appetite is larger than I expected."

After consuming the mushroom soup that Heather had delivered from Russell Group, he could go home and have another serving. Who wouldn't find that ironic?

Dexter ignored her passive-aggressive tone. As Julie cleared the dishes, Josie leaned back in her chair and said, "I'll leave this place once you're married, so there's no need to bring Mrs. Carroll back."

She was used to being independent. Having another person around felt like a hassle, even if it was only for a few days.

Dexter continued to ignore her, playing with his phone and seemingly replying to a message. She watched his slender fingers glide over the phone case, her heart pounding like thunder as if those fingers were tracing over her forbidden areas.

She wasn't sure if Dexter had actually noticed the bug.

After finishing replying to the message, he looked up and met her conflicted gaze. Squinting his eyes, he asked, "What are you looking at?"

Josie composed her expression. "Your phone case has oxidized. Why haven't you replaced it?"

Dexter casually flipped his phone. "I have a fondness for old things."

"Didn't see that coming," Josie retorted quickly, scoffing coldly right away.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she thought she saw a hint of a smile on his face. It was a relaxed expression. Before she could take a closer look, Larry walked in from outside. "Mr. Russell, Mr. Lockhart is here."

The relaxed expression on Dexter's face quickly faded.

Josie considerately went upstairs to give them space for their meeting.
