The Epic Blind Date with My Boss

Chapter 59

— ‘I’m here, Josie. I’m sorry for troubling you with my parents.’

After Josie left work, she received a text message from Nicole while waiting for the bus at the bus stop.

Her suspended heart finally settled, and she looked down as she replied, ‘It’s fine as long as you’re safe.’ This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

She didn’t know why but the bus today seemed slightly late. She had been waiting for a long time, but it didn’t come. There was a heavy laptop bag in her arms, and she felt like she would fall asleep if she shut her eyes.

At this time, Josie woke up with a start after hearing the sound of a horn. She shivered and saw a Rolls-Royce stop in front of her. The driver rolled down the windows and smiled politely. “We meet again, Ms. Warren.”

Josie’s heart tightened. She immediately looked around to see if there were any Russell Group employees. At this time, the car door opened automatically. It was different from the subtle Porsche this morning. This car seemed very flamboyant.

She got into the car quickly and ensured no one saw her.

In the spacious car seat, Dexter was working on his laptop. His expression was serious and impatient.

“It would be great if you could keep your guard up like this against strangers.”

Josie was dumbfounded. She didn’t know how to face Dexter but felt much more relaxed after he called her out.

After a while, Dexter closed his laptop. She plucked up her courage and asked, “Are you done with work?”

Dexter looked at her from the side.

“It’s nothing. It’s just that Nicole sent me a text message saying that she’s reached.” He was also a part of it. It was only natural to tell him about the progress.

Dexter was confused. “What does she have to do with me?”

“But you helped her.”

“It’s because you were meddlesome.”

“… I’ll keep quiet then.”

Perhaps the Rolls-Royce wasn’t huge, or maybe the image from this morning was impossible to get rid of. Josie felt that the air was thin. Her face flushed uncontrollably, and she didn’t dare to look Dexter in the eye.

The man leaned back in the car seat and watched all her little habits. His lips curved unconsciously.

At this time, Josie’s cell phone rang. The caller ID showed that it was Justin. She was frightened and showed it to Dexter.

“Answer the call,” he said calmly.

Josie cleared her throat and answered the call impatiently. “What is it?”

“Where’s Nicole?” Justin’s voice wasn’t as sloppy as usual. There was a repressed and contained rage that came before he lost his temper.

“Nicole? You’re asking me about your girlfriend? Are you ill, Justin?” Josie acted unconcerned and spoke in her usual manner. Her eyes met with Dexter’s, and she was very nervous.

Logically speaking, Justin shouldn’t know that she had contacted Nicole.

But Justin’s tone was very confident. “Nicole has gone missing. I’ve looked at all her social media, and guess what I found? I found your direct messages with her on Twitter! Good job. I never thought that you were the mastermind. Where’s Nicole? Tell me! Where is she?”

He was almost yelling at the other end. Josie was frightened, and her hand holding the cell phone trembled.

Dexter turned on his laptop again and quickly typed something.

Josie looked at the screen and repeated. “I did look for Nicole because your mom wanted money, so she said she would think about it, but we didn’t talk anymore after that. I don’t know where she is!”

“You’re lying! She only wanted to break up with me after you contacted her! Josie, you must have told her about my debts! You better tell me honestly where she is. Otherwise, I will kill you!”

“I said that I don’t know! Kill me all you want!”

— ‘Hang up!’

Josie obeyed and hung up at once after speaking.
