Blind date turned proposal (Josie and Dexter)
Chapter 1361 No Longer Viable

To be honest, Josie had completely forgotten about that matter. Unexpectedly, Morgan had kept it in mind all along and even went ahead and did it. "You..." "I'm handing over the collaboration rights for Eccentric Corporation to you, so distance yourself from Dexter."

How absurd. Josie took a deep breath. "You've lost it, Morgan. This is a serious matter, and you're letting your emotions get the best of you."

"So what? It's not like it hasn't happened before. I could even give up the entire Bastille Group, let alone Eccentric Corporation," he replied earnestly.

Josie was feeling a bit of a headache. She initially had come to probe the situation, not expecting to encounter a hot potato.

"Are you really giving it to me?"

"That's right."

As Josie was slightly leaning forward, about to speak, she suddenly heard a commotion coming from outside.

"Sir, you really can't go in there!"

In the next moment, the office door was flung open. The newcomer was none other than Larry, impeccably dressed in a suit. He adjusted his glasses, observing the scene with a stern expression. "Why are you here?" Josie asked, momentarily panicked. However, when she didn't see Dexter behind Larry, she let out a sigh of relief.

Morgan stood up, clutching the flower pot. "Mr. Peeple, it's not polite to show up uninvited. Didn't the guards downstairs stop you?"

Larry walked straight in. "One was entangled by a nightclub worker in disguise, while the other was accused of shoplifting at the neighboring supermarket." Morgan was rendered speechless.

Subsequently, he let out a sneer. "It seems like I'm stuck with a sticky situation that I can't get rid of, no matter how hard I try. Jo, forget about my conditions." Josie was caught between a rock and a hard place. She grabbed onto Larry's sleeve and led him out of the office. "What are you here for?"

"We heard from Moses that you came here right after we exited Eccentric Corporation. Mr. Russell is waiting for you downstairs."

Josie was annoyed. "I've said it. I won't meet him.'

Larry was very patient. "You should at least meet him briefly."

Josie was left with no alternative. Consequently, Hector witnessed Josie being taken away directly by a member of Russell Group without putting up any struggle.

As they descended in the elevator, Larry stood behind Josie, uttering seriously, "You knew full well that Morgan is the man behind Eccentric Corporation. You shouldn't have come."

Josie remained still. "Why shouldn't I?"

"He harbors improper intentions toward you."

She chuckled. "So what?"

Larry was somewhat taken aback. Josie currently had no ties with Dexter, and it was indeed impossible to impose too many restrictions on her.

"He's not as harmless as he appears on the surface. You could be exploited."

The elevator arrived, and as they

stepped out of Eccentric Corporation's entrance, Dexter's Porsche was parked right outside The car window was lowered by a quarter, and one could vaguely see a wisp of smoke wafting from inside.

Josie pointed with her chin. "It seems your boss has been using me quite a bit too."

Larry was left speechless.

Josie opened the door forcefully and got into the car unceremoniously. "What on earth are you trying to do?"

Dexter was seated on the left, a lit cigarette between his fingers. He glanced sidelong, his tone steady and unhurried as he spoke. "I don't want you to be alone with Morgan."

Josie was baffled. Then, she

lowered her gaze only to find the car floor littered with fragments of torn paper. Upon closer inspection, she could make out that they were once part of a contract. "What is this?"

"The collaboration proposal with Eccentric Corporation." Dexter was unhurried.

He put out his cigarette and wiped his fingers with a tissue. "It's not viable anymore."

"What does that mean?"

"Your presence means that Morgan won't choose any other company."

Josie was displeased by the certainty in his words. "He mentioned Russell Group's proposal is better than Olsen Group's."

"What else? Why don't you tell me the rest?" Dexter's eyes were pensive, expressing unmistakable clarity.

Josie averted her gaze. "Here we go again. You're acting as if you know me so well."
