Josephine picked up the water glass and murmured gratefully, “Thank you.” Meanwhile, Ethan sat on the couch, staring at her screen. She blushed a little and mumbled, “Don’t look.”
It was because she was writing a piece that mentioned the relationship between the sexes. Although she had never been in a serious relationship, her words were delicate and sharp when she wrote this type of article, as if she were an experienced person in love. Truth was, Josephine was a girl who often burst out with dirty jokes among her colleagues, and sometimes with her friends too.
“Why can’t I look?” Ethan couldn’t help but ask with a smile when he noticed the headline she wrote, ‘Who likes doing the deed more, men or women?’
“I just don’t want you to look.” Josephine covered her computer and blushed. “Where did you get the experience to write these news articles?” The man did not let her off the hook and continued to ask.
Josephine’s face turned red upon realizing that Ethan had seen what she wrote. “Have you never heard of someone imagining things?” she stuttered. Ethan burst out laughing. “Are you writing based on your imagination?”
“We conducted a survey report.” With that, she moved her computer to the couch to write. While writing, she muttered, “I will also have to send the manuscript to my desk later.” Ethan was slightly surprised to hear that. “It’s so late. Are you returning to the company?”
“Yeah!” “I’ll have someone else send it for you. It’s too late, so don’t go.” Ethan felt sorry for her. After all, she got beaten up today and needed rest.
“Really? Thank you!” In fact, Josephine didn’t want to face her colleagues now. Their imagination was even richer than hers. They would surely spread rumors about her being the homewrecker who got beaten up by the original partner. There would be no reasoning with them.
It was not until 11.00PM that Josephine handed the manuscript to the person Ethan had summoned. After that, she went into the bathroom and looked around. She didn’t know if it was because of the medicine she applied or her young age, but the swelling on her face had disappeared. She looked no different from usual, except that it was still red.
After coming out of the bathroom, Josephine looked at Ethan, who was in the master bedroom. She thought she should go over and say a few words before closing the door and going to bed.
She saw that the bedroom door was not closed, so she walked over. However, before she could knock, a warm figure with only a bath towel wrapped around the waist appeared before her eyes.
He had broad, sturdy honey-colored chest muscles and solid, tough muscle lines below the abs. After the shower, there were even some blood vessels showing.
At that sight, Josephine mused, What a great body! He’s parading it for me? Ethan looked at her dumbfounded expression and was open about it, ruffling his wet hair and asking with a smile, “Like what you see?”
Josephine gulped discreetly, forcing herself to move her eyes away and stare at the floor. She blushed and mumbled, “I’m returning to my room. Goodnight.” “Wait a minute.”
“Hmm?” Josephine quickly stopped in her tracks. The man suddenly picked up a bag and handed. it to her. “Here’s the pajamas I prepared for you.”
“Huh? You prepared pajamas for me?” Surprised, Josephine took the bag and saw a thin, burgundy nightgown inside. Her mind. buzzed for a moment. It’s rather sexy, isn’t it?
“Let me see the injury on your face.” The man was still unsure about her face and wanted to recheck it before she went to bed. Josephine quickly took a step back. “T-That’s alright. I’m fine.” It was already ugly enough. She couldn’t possibly show it to him.
“Goodnight!” Josephine said and backed out of the doorway, returning to her room. She was still a bit uneasy and her mind was filled with the image of Ethan’s perfect body. She realized the handsome guys she usually saw were nothing compared to him. Ethan’s figure is genuinely top-notch! I should have looked at him more instead of being shy just now! Who knows when I will get another chance?
Josephine quickly took a shower and put on the nightgown that Ethan had given her. It fit her. perfectly, revealing her charming curves which were usually hidden under her formal attire.
