"Alright," Gavin agreed without hesitation.
Jolie fell silent.
She led the way out of the car, her expression less than pleased. This wasn’t how the night was supposed to go.
She and Gavin were from two entirely different worlds, and there was no reason for their paths to cross like this.
Where had things gone wrong?
As they walked, an image flashed through her mind—Gavin’s gaze when he looked at Selena. At that moment, her eyes grew colder.
Her apartment was on the 17th floor. At this late hour, the elevator was empty, leaving just the two of them.
Jolie stood in front, the reflective elevator walls showing Gavin’s sharp, handsome features. He kept his gaze lowered, his face expressionless.
Ding!
The elevator doors opened, and Jolie stepped out first, entering her apartment by scanning her fingerprint.
She opened the door and retrieved a pair of men’s slippers from the shoe cabinet, placing them in front of him.
"Please, Mr. Cooper."
Gavin’s gaze flickered briefly over the shoe cabinet. Alongside the men’s slippers were men’s dress shoes and sneakers.
After switching into the slippers, he asked casually, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
Jolie shook her head. "No."
His eyes lingered on her for a moment, but he said nothing further.
Jolie didn’t feel the need to explain herself, either.
In her mind, she began to piece together why he was acting so strangely. If her suspicion was correct, this situation was going to become... messy.
Turning away, she grabbed a cup and set the water to boil. When she glanced back, she found Gavin standing silently in the living room.
