Blind Date Turned Proposal

“Dexter, you know we never signed a prenuptial agreement. If we divorce, you’re not subject to paying me any alimony,” Josie said playfully, holding her face thoughtfully.

It was New Year’s, and Josie wanted to amuse him with her witty response. “You’re quite the expert at calculations, aren’t you, Josie?” Dexter teased, looking at her with affection.

She gave him a playful doe-eyed look. “The Russell family’s legal team never loses. You can ask them,” Dexter confidently stated, knowing they wouldn’t let her take a single penny.

“You seem disappointed. Do you really want a divorce?”

Dexter sealed her words with a kiss as if he couldn’t get enough of her.

Henry still appeared upset, evident from his expression. Still, with the cheerful atmosphere and many people around, the anger eventually dissipated.
