Blind Date Turned Proposal

Dexter arrived half an hour later.

Paul exited the car with the servants’ help and said, “Thank you, Dexter.”

“We shouldn’t have sent you to Russell Mansion in the first place. It was our mistake,” Dexter replied evenly.

No matter how friendly Henry was, Paul could not be at ease staying in Russell Mansion because it was not his home.

He smiled knowingly and patted Dexter’s hand to indicate that he appreciated what Dexter did for him.

Furthermore, he saw that Dexter was responsible and trustworthy and thought Josie had married the right man.

Although Paul was initially wary of Dexter, he had come to trust him.

Josie went out of her room. She was still in her pajamas but wore shoes this time. “What took you so long?”

Dexter handed the dessert to her and answered calmly, “The strawberry cake was popular. I had to queue up for some time.”

The dessert was packed in an exquisite box and tasted as delicious as usual. The cake melted in her mouth but did not taste as sweet as expected. She offered Dexter a bite and said, “Perhaps there’s something wrong with my taste buds, but this cake tastes bitter. You should give it a try.”
