Blind Date Turned Proposal

Chapter 276

Chapter 276 Wanting to Help Him

Moses fulfilled his duties conscientiously, providing Dexter with comprehensive and accurate reports on every movement and detail concerning Josie.

Josie ran into Arnold at the airport as she made her way to Rivodia.

It wasn’t a mere coincidence. Arnold spoke into his phone, “I’m flying to London tomorrow. Can we meet now?”

Josie hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do. “I’m actually at the airport right now. My flight leaves in forty minutes.”

“That’s fine. I’ll come over right away.”

As Arnold made his way over, he noticed Josie seated in the airport lounge, casually enjoying a bowl of noodles. Her side profile exuded a sense of grace and composure.

Seated beside Arnold was Moses, to whom Josie had not been introduced yet.

Just as Arnold was taking his seat, Dexter called.

“I heard you’ve been keeping tabs on Wyatt lately,” he calmly remarked.

Josie felt a pang of guilt, but she had mentally prepared herself for this moment, knowing that he would eventually find out.

“Uh, yeah… We’re actually working on a project together, heading to Rivodia,” she replied.

Dexter didn’t get angry and asked, “Do you need my help?”

Josie looked at Arnold, playing with a set of Catholic rosaries, and said, “Nah, everything is fine now.”

Dexter smiled, “I’ll be waiting for your good news in Wavery.”

After hanging up the phone, a waiter brought a bowl of beef noodles and placed it in front of Arnol poked at it with his chopsticks and ranted, “Seriously? These beef noodles cost me 188 bucks, and th only two tiny pieces of beef. They might as well go rob!” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Josie rubbed her forehead and glanced toward the restroom. “Mr. Carter, what is it that you want to t me? Please stop wasting my precious time.”

Unperturbed, Arnold slurped a mouthful of beef noodles and said, “Xanthe isn’t in Wavery, so there’s n need to go.”

“Oh?” Josie was surprised. “But all my intel told me she’ll attend this meeting in Wavery.”

Arnold gave her a teasing look. “Do you honestly think Dexter would let you navigate through all of this when there are things he doesn’t want you to find out?”

She furrowed her brow. “What do you mean…”

He continued slurping his noodles.

Arnold implied that all the information Josie had received was carefully orchestrated and leaked to her. Dexter was the mastermind, pulling the strings behind the scenes. He knew about her involvement and deliberately allowed her to be part of the situation.

Realizing this, Josie felt somewhat defeated. “I don’t understand why he wouldn’t trust me enough to share everything. I only… wanted to help him.”

Arnold pulled out a tissue and chivalrously wiped his mouth. “Gotta go. My flight is leaving soon.”

Meanwhile, Wyatt emerged from the restroom and noticed her sitting in a daze. “Ready to go, Josie?”

“…Mm, let’s go.”

Since she was already at the airport, ready to board the plane, she decided to take it as a well- deserved vacation for herself, considering the hard work she had put in over the past few days.

Wyatt had been diligently preparing, crafting various plans and strategies, and foreseeing the potential challenges that could arise with the investors. Josie was poised and steady and didn’t encounter Xanthe as expected.

However, she was taken aback when she spotted Yanis at the evening banquet.

Standing not too far away, the spirited elderly man, wearing a hat that revealed a few strands of gray and using a cane for support, flashed Josie a smile that was contagious in its warmth.

hair,

She dressed in a stunning off-shoulder evening gown, and her steps faltered when she laid eyes on Yanis. It never crossed her mind that she would encounter him in this place. Why was he here? Confusion swirled in her mind, leaving her unable to make sense of it all.

She realized this trip might present more challenges than initially anticipated.

Josie had just finished conversing with another president and was about to take a sip from her wine glass when she heard that slightly weathered voice that startled her.

“Hey, Jo!”
