Josephine rushed into the house and simply packed a few things before returning. downstairs. Even at this point, she was still a bit shy. After all, it was the first time she lied to her mother just for dating her boyfriend.
She got into the sports car and Ethan drove her back to the hotel. Josephine sighed in relief. She did not bring any work home with her, so she had more time to herself.
This morning, Ethan had snapped a few photos of the villa, and now he was sharing them with her. She was well aware that it was a rare opportunity to find detached villas downtown. “It’s beautiful.”
“Are you looking forward to moving in with me?” Ethan asked, reaching out his hand and putting his arm around her. Josephine nodded in excitement. “Of course!”
“We’ll pick out furniture and other stuff for our new home this weekend. You can decide what you want. Ethan was looking forward to decorating the house with the woman he loved.
He wanted to build a family with this woman and live a peaceful life with her. This was the first time in twenty-seven years that he wanted to do that.
She was moved by his words. She cuddled him as her mind filled with her future plan with him by her side. However, there were many blank spaces she struggled to fill. For example, his family and his career. All of them were located somewhere else. Will we last?
Even a calm and rational woman like her refused to think about it. All she wanted was to stay with him as long as she could and never worried about their future.
Josephine suddenly raised her head and locked eyes with Ethan. She saw desire deep down inside his eyes. It was lust-he was hoping he could make a move.
Josephine was blushing profusely at his clear intention. “I-I got my period.” She noticed it in the office this afternoon. Thus, even though she intended to make it to the next base, she had to wait.
