Blind Date Turned Proposal

Not long ago, Will and Josie had a heated argument about the materials, but now, he was gone in the blink of an eye.

Josie crouched down on the side, taking time to regain her composure.

Arnold hurriedly walked over, asking, “It’s New Year’s Eve. What was he doing here?”

“I heard… I heard he wasn’t at ease with this project and always wanted to come and check on it. After his family gathering on New Year’s Eve, he took a stroll and ended up nearby, so…”

After explaining, nobody said anything.

No one could decide momentarily whether he was to blame for the accident or if it was his fate.

After a brief pause, Arnold closed his eyes, “Before dawn breaks, take care of the body, inform his family, offer compensation, and make sure they speak nothing about it.”

“Alright.”

Josie took in everything and finally stood tall. She shot a frosty, hollow stare at Arnold. “And what happens next?”

Arnold locked eyes with her from afar, exuding a chilly and distant aura. “In this world, money rules. Even some people’s lives can be bought.”

Arnold’s brutally frank words made Josie’s stomach churn once more.
