That Day When I Got Married to My Boss at the Blind Date

“If you are unwilling to give up custody of Grape, then I can offer you another option.”

Dexter’s words were incredibly tempting. Josie seemed to have realized something, but for the sake of Grape, she held on as if it were a lifeline and asked, “What?”

As soon as she said that, Dexter walked towards Josie.

Finally, he stopped just half a step away from her, his gaze fixed intently on her face. He said, “I can give up my custody rights to Grape, but I have one condition. I want you to live with me for a hundred days, like a normal married couple, to give Grape a complete home. After a hundred days, we will go our separate ways, and I will permanently give up my custody rights to Grape.”

Josie looked at him in disbelief, never having imagined that Dexter would make such an unreasonable demand. Without hesitation, she flatly refused, “No way.”

Dexter seemed to have anticipated her response.

“It’s alright. There’s no rush. You can take your time to think it over before giving me an answer. Whenever you’ve figured it out, it’s never too late to come find me. However… don’t take too long to decide.”

Josie lowered her gaze, a hint of hurt hidden deep within her eyes. “Dexter, what do you take me for? A commodity? Or in your eyes, am I merely an object that can be used for trade at any given moment?”

“It’s not-”
