Chapter 1918: Chapter 1918

“Can you walk?” Ethan asked her with a low voice. Josephine smiled sweetly and said, “Why? Are you going to carry me up the stairs?” As soon as her words fell, Ethan took the initiative and carried her bridal style. Josephine yelped in shock and quickly wrapped her arms around him, afraid she would fall.

Her face was flushed red as Ethan carried her. It looks like I can’t tease him anymore. He looks like he’ll give in easily, she thought. She didn’t think it would be fun if she had him wrapped around her fingers that easily.

Inside the elevator, Josephine was so embarrassed that she kept her head down. When she smelled the fragrance from him, she couldn’t help but take a whiff. He smells nice, she thought.

Ethan could see her getting closer to him from the mirror’s reflection. What is she doing? Is she smelling me? She acts like a puppy. Finally, the elevator’s sound rang. Ethan directly took her to his room. When Ethan put her down, she asked, “Is this your room?”

“Yes. You can stay here. I’ll take you home later,” replied Ethan. Then, he pressed the button that connected to the 180-degree curtains. As the beautiful night scenery unfolded before. Josephine’s eyes, she couldn’t help but be amazed. Her eyes widened. This is so beautiful. Ethan poured a glass of water and gave it to her. “Here. Have some water.”

Josephine took the water and sat on the couch that was by the balcony. Although she had drunk it, her face was still burning hot. As she put down the glass, she could feel the effect of the wine. Feeling hot, she couldn’t help but tug on her shirt, and her dress curled up to her knees. When Ethan walked back into the room, he gulped when he saw her in such an alluring state. He couldn’t tell if she had done it on purpose since she had an innocent look on her face.

On the other hand, Josephine leaned her head against the couch. When she raised her head and saw Ethan, she smiled. Her smile was beautiful, seemingly like a rose, which is sweet and luscious.

Ethan quickly drank the water he was holding to suppress his desires. Then, he took the initiative to question her as he sat in front of her. “What’s the matter with you today? You drank so much alcohol when you know you aren’t a heavy drinker.”

“Why don’t you take a guess?” Josephine tilted her head and looked at him. “Are you unhappy?”

“Say, are we friends, Mr. Quarles?” “Of course we are!” Ethan cocked his eyebrow. “If you are my friend, don’t ask this question,” replied Josephine as she propped her chin.

Ethan was startled by her words and thought, She sure is hard to guess, but it’s fun. At this moment, Josephine’s phone rang. When she picked it up and saw the caller’s ID, she mumbled, “Luke? Why is he calling me?”

At that moment, Ethan was unhappy. “Don’t answer it.” It was too late. Josephine had already answered the call. “Hello! Is something the matter, Luke?”

“Will you go to work tomorrow, Josephine?”

“Yeah!” “Alright. I have a surprise gift for you tomorrow.” “I won’t keep it, so don’t send me any gift.” “I made it just for you. Please take it for my sake!”

“I..” Before Josephine could say anything, Luke hung up the call. Josephine was speechless as she put her phone aside and rubbed her temple. “I’m dizzy. Can I lie down for a moment?”

“Go ahead!” Ethan replied. As Josephine lay on the bed, she didn’t notice that the collar of her shirt had slipped. From Ethan’s view, he could see the inside of her clothes. Initially, he was embarrassed and averted his gaze. However, something seemed to lure him in, and he couldn’t help but stare at her.

After some time, Josephine had fallen asleep. It seemed like her default mode when being drunk was sleep mode. “Josephine,” Ethan called her softly.
