That Day When I Got Married to My Boss at the Blind Date

Chapter 168 Jealousy

The frustration in Josie’s heart grew the longer she remained in this place. She placed a hand. on the bar table and fluttered her lashes. “Mr. Carter, do you think I’m beautiful?”

Arnold laughed and answered, “Honestly, you’re still quite some way from being considered beautiful.”

Josie dropped all her charming act and appeared annoyed. “Why do you want me then? I’m only an unassuming commoner. I have nothing of value, not even beauty. All I have is my life.”

Arnold smiled cryptically and drank a mouthful of wine. Then, he stood behind her and slowly fed her the rest of the wine in the glass. “Honestly, I’m not interested in you, but Dexter cares about you, and that piques my interest.”

He is a freak. Josie choked on the wine and coughed, pressing her hand to her chest. Her mouth was filled with the taste of alcohol.

“Why do you want to snatch something belonging to him? Is it because the woman you loved fell in love with him?” She blurted without thinking.

Arnold raised his eyebrows and smiled. “I didn’t expect you to know about this.”
