The Epic Blind Date with My Boss

With Arnold having dispatched all men to keep a watchful eye on the sea, the defense was rather lax. Coupled with it being the shift change, there was only one bodyguard at the far end, dozing off.

Josie moved stealthily, her nerves stretched taut. As she neared her target, the bodyguard seemed to sense something amiss. Just as he was about to turn around, Josie, wielding a stun baton, shocked him into unconsciousness. He wore a look of disbelief on his face before he collapsed.

“My apologies,” Josie said softly. Then, with all her strength, she dragged him into the restroom, stripped off his jacket, and put it on herself.

The walkie-talkie crackled to life. “Bellamy, could you get Edmund for me? I can’t seem to reach him. Ms. Yowell wants some lychees. Ask him to fetch some over.”

Josie paused in changing her clothes. She then picked up the walkie-talkie, an idea suddenly forming in her mind.

She deepened her voice. “Just a moment.”

The lychees were in cold storage, so finding them wasn’t difficult. With her face covered, Josie cautiously made her way there. Relying on his memory, she then went to Josephine’s room.

When she was talking with Arnold earlier, there was a loud crash, and there happened to be a wooden plank on the ground at the end of the hallway. She deduced that it must have been Dexter’s doing. She continued forward and saw a few bodyguards stationed outside a room.
