Blind Date Turned Proposal (Josie and Dexter)

The next day, Josie went to Eccentric Corporation with the intention letter from Olsen Group to get Morgan's signature.

As soon as she entered the office, Ryan pushed the door open, holding a file folder.

"Dexter returned the stuff we gave to him."

Morgan slid his chair to the desk and opened the file folder. Inside were several papers, prominently featuring the evidence of the mayor's illegitimate child and some case evidence.

Josie was utterly surprised. "Why was it returned? Are you sure he received it?"

Ryan glanced at her, hesitating to speak.

"Speak," Morgan intervened.

"What he meant was, he didn't need your help. He would find another way out. He only had one condition for returning these."

"What is it?" Josie asked urgently.

Ryan pursed his lips. "Don't make things difficult for Josie."
