Chapter 2124

Josephine wanted to grab her cell phone but left it on the couch outside. She wasn’t sleepy and wanted

to watch some news, so she decided to go and get it. She thought that Ethan. might have already gone

to bed.

Feeling lucky, Josephine opened the door, hoping to get her cell phone quickly and sneak back to her

room. However, life was nothing if not unpredictable. Just as she headed toward the couch, a man

wearing only his pajama pants appeared from the balcony where he had just finished a call.

The two of them met in the dimly lit living room. Josephine’s mind went blank. She hugged her chest

awkwardly and said, “I’m looking for my phone.”

Ethan squinted and admired her in her wine-red nightgown. It was just as he imagined. He knew that

her perfect body, which men couldn’t help but fantasize about, was hidden underneath her formal work

clothes. Josephine searched through the couch cushions, but the more she hurriedly looked for her cell

phone, the harder it was to find it.

“Do you need any help?” Ethan shook his cell phone. All he had to do was make a call and they would

be able to locate the phone. Josephine looked at him with a pleading expression. “Please help me find

it.”

Ethan called Josephine’s cell phone and. discovered it was wedged into the gap in the couch.

Josephine was speechless upon seeing that. I must have accidentally pushed it into the gap.

She tried to retrieve it but couldn’t. At that, Ethan quickly approached her. Bending down, he offered,

“I’ll do it.” Josephine breathed, a hint of an alluring scent emanating from her as her pretty face

blushed. She took two steps back, placing one hand over her chest.

She found it amusing that two people dressed like that were here to fetch her phone. Can’t something

elegant and romantic happen between us?

Ethan’s fingers were long and he quickly picked up her phone. Josephine took it gratefully and thanked

him. Ethan scanned her nightgown. The design of the two straps was subtle under the light. It looked

as if it was made to be easily torn off, arousing thoughts of carnal desire in a man’s mind.

On the other hand, Josephine was getting nervous and flustered. Ethan had just moved the couch with

force, and now it was diagonally in front of her. However, she didn’t notice it. As she turned around, she

stumbled over it. “Ah!” She cried out as her head hit the back of the couch, leaving her kneeling in a

miserable heap.

“Are you okay?” Ethan quickly reached out to hold her, his calloused palms filled with manly. strength

touching her waist through her thin nightgown. Before she could react, he had picked her up in his

arms. She covered her forehead, feeling both shy and embarrassed.

The two of them tightly embraced each other, with Ethan’s hand gently rubbing her forehead. “Does it

hurt?” “N-No… I’m fine,” she replied, but at the moment, she was more focused on the fact that she

was lying in his arms.

“I’m going back to my room,” a flushed Josephine added. However, Ethan suddenly carried her and

took her straight back to her room. “I’ll carry you back to your room, so you won’t fall again,” he

murmured.

“I should’ve checked my horoscope before going out today.” Josephine was rather speechless at that

point as she wondered why she kept getting hurt today. Ethan laughed and said, ‘Do you remember

what you said?”

“What?” Josephine didn’t have a good memory. “You said I’m a jinx reborn and whenever you’re around

me, you have bad luck,” Ethan commented. She immediately covered her face in regret. “I take back

that statement!” she muttered. “I was just angry at the time. Please don’t take it to heart!”

Josephine had both hands covering her face, which meant that her chest was not covered. Coupled

with her being held in Ethan’s arms, the nightgown’s low V-neck neckline was open to Ethan.

Ethan’s sexy Adam’s apple bobbed twice. The woman emanating a light fragrance in his arms kept

stirring up the fire hidden in his heart for twenty-seven years.
