The Epic Blind Date with My Boss (Josie and Dexter)

Chapter 679 Dexter Was Out All Night
When Dexter came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel, he was surprised to see Josie seated at the corner of the bed. “Why
not sleep a bit more?”
Josie hugged her knees and looked at him. “I can’t sleep anymore. Why were you out the whole night?”
Josie’s eyes flickered with expectation as she asked this question. She hoped Dexter would answer truthfully.
Dexter looked down and dried his hair with a towel. “I had to deal with something complicated. It took more time than expected.”
He avoided her gaze as he answered.
Josie’s heart sank. Still, she did not show emotion as she replied, “It must have been severe. since you had to deal with it on
New Year’s Eve.”
Dexter did not notice anything strange with her words. Instead, he recalled something. “When I returned to Russell Mansion this
morning, Grandpa said you left last night and never returned. Did something happen?”
His inquiry sounded flat and emotionless. Josie tried to detect concern from his tone but could not hear any.
“I had to amend an urgent design.”
Dexter did not find an issue with her excuse. Perhaps he was too tired.
“It’s not safe going out that late. Try not to do that again.” Dexter frowned slightly and towel down.
“Sure.” Josie stepped forward and did not talk about him being out all night again.

Dexter embraced her from behind and basked briefly in her warmth before saying, “You called me twice yesterday. What’s
wrong?”
He returned her call this morning, but no one answered. Then, he called Mason Garden and was told she had returned.

Dexter seemed exhausted. Josie sensed a heaviness in his tone despite his attempt to conceal

“I wanted to ask when you would be home, but you didn’t answer.” Jose squeezed out a smile and glossed over the matter.

“I was busy...”
Dexter tightened his embrace, but Josie felt he did it out of guilt.
She recalled what Arnold said.
He said she and Dexter did not trust each other.
Dexter needed sleep and lay in bed. At the same time, he wrapped his arms around her waist. and would not let go. “Stay with
me.”
His clinginess moved her compassion. She took a deep breath and said tentatively, “Dexter, we are husband and wife. I’ve been
honest with you. Will you also be honest with me?”
She suddenly stopped feeling his warm breath on the back of her neck. It seemed he was surprised by her question, but he soon
answered, “Of course.”
“You won’t lie to me, right?”
Dexter sensed something was wrong. He opened his bloodshot eyes and moved her to face him. “Why do you suddenly ask
these questions?”
His behavior seemed so natural that Josie was relieved. She began to suspect the truthfulness of Arnold’s words.

She shook her head and replied, “It’s nothing. I was thinking about New Year’s resolution.”
Dexter tightened his embrace.
Josie fell asleep until the afternoon and woke up to find him missing.
She ran barefoot out of the bedroom and glanced downstairs. Coincidentally, Dexter stood at the door and was about to head
out. He looked up upon hearing noises and frowned. “Put on your shoes.”
But Josie did not move from her spot. “Where are you going?”
“I’m going to pick up your father. Have you forgotten?” Dexter replied teasingly.
Josie nodded. She had indeed forgotten about the matter. “Can you bring me dessert from Kodille on your way back? I’m craving
its strawberry cake.”
Dexter smiled and grabbed his car keys. “Sure. Go wear your shoes now.”
Then, he walked out and started the car. Josie returned to her room and remembered Russell Mansion and Mason Garden had
chauffeurs. Why is Dexter picking Pop up on his own?

The more she thought about it, the more he found the matter strange. Ultimately, she could not stand her doubt and rushed out
of Mason Garden after Dexter’s car left. Then, she hailed
a taxi and said. “Can you follow that Porschel
