Alvina felt that her trip here was worth it. Hearing about Joseph's past, she found Wendy was truly interesting and adorable.
At around nine, Alvina should also be leaving. Joseph held her hand and quickly walked upstairs.
"Ah …Don't do that!" Alvina did not expect him to suddenly grab onto her hand. When she reacted that, she was already dragged up the stairs. She could only smile dryly as she looked at his mother and daughter.
Upstairs, Alvina did not calm down before she was pressed against the wall of his study.
Alvina's heart almost stopped beating from fright. Her beautiful eyes flickered in panic, reflecting the man's equally complicated expression. In the next second, the expected thin lips ruthlessly attacked. Alvina was so scared that she did not dare move, let alone take the initiative.
"You …" Fortunately, the man only kissed for two seconds before let her go. His breath was heavy as he stared at her charming face. He pinched her unwillingly, "You laugh at me ."
"I didn't!" Alvina wanted to pretend to be stupid, but she felt that she could not. At the table, other than Wendy's laughter, she laughed the loudest. She could not deny it.
"How old are you to be playing with my sister!" Although Joseph gritted his teeth and said those words, he didn't have any intention of getting angry at her.
Alvina pouted: "I'm a person with a low laughing point. Your sister's words are quite interesting, so… You can't blame me for this! "
"You still have a reason?" The man laughed angrily.
"You're still not letting me go? If I stay in your house for a while longer, maybe they'll think that you're the one who won't let me go." Alvina immediately laughed playfully.
The man pressed a hand to her ear and used his other hand to draw her perfect chin with his finger. "To be honest, I don't want you to leave."
"So, you're letting me stay the night? That won't do, we're not engaged yet. I can't stay in your house, that's against the rules!" Alvina immediately explained in a serious tone.
Joseph was immediately amused by her and kept his arm. With one hand behind his back, he went behind his desk, opened the cabinet and took out something: "I have something to give you!"
Alvina did not expect Joseph to be so romantic, giving her gifts every so often.
"What is it?" Alvina immediately walked over to take a look out of curiosity.
"It's not anything precious. I just went on a tour and a Daoist gave me a talisman. He said that it could protect me and that I kept it by my side the entire time. Now, I want to give it to you. " Joseph placed the small box into her hands: "You need its protection more than I do!"
"Me? I don't need it. Since it is yours, you can keep it. It's quite rare. " Alvina hurriedly pushed the small box back into his hands. Not daring to take it, it was indeed not precious, but in her opinion, this was a man's sincerity, it was more precious than anything.
"Take it. You take it, and I'll be at ease. Although it shouldn't be a superstition, there are still many mysteries that are difficult to solve. It's better to believe it just once and seek the peace of mind!" Joseph once again placed it in her palm, and curled her five fingers, allowing her to hold it firmly.
Alvina's beautiful eyes flashed with light. She lowered her head, and her tears rolled in her eyes.
"Alright, I'll keep it!" Alvina replied lightly.
"That's good. I'll get someone to send you back. Be careful on your way!" Although Joseph was reluctant, he had no choice but to send her away.
"OK!" Alvina held the small box tightly and stuffed it into her pocket. She then tiptoed and kissed the man's lips, then turned and walked out.
Joseph followed her down the stairs with his long legs.
Mrs. Grant and Wendy were sitting on the sofa drinking tea. Seeing the two of them come down, their faces were filled with joy.
