Blind Date Turned Proposal

Not long after Heather left, Dexter returned from the break room. He hugged her from behind without making any noise. “Are you satisfied now?”

The man’s breath landed on her neck. She shivered. “Isn’t this what you wanted? Getting rid of the trouble Mark planted with my hand.”

She turned her head, and their faces touched. “Making me the villain here. You’re merciless, Mr. Russell.”

Dexter allowed Josie to finish the conversation earlier. It meant that he agreed, or in other words, he never wanted Heather by his side.

He planted his lips on her neck relentlessly. Their breathing quickened.

“As long as Mrs. Russell is happy.”

She raised her head. The past events and people flashed through her mind. She was in no mood to continue and pushed him away. “I want to find my dad, but I need more authority. Are you willing to give me more, Mr. Russell?”

Josie realized something from the trip to Rivodia. Dependence would result in her death. Even if she had some accomplishments in her field, it was far from being her protection.

Dexter’s eyes dimmed. She could not see what he was thinking.
