The IVF Secret That Shook a Dynasty novel Chapter 564

With the contrast of her past, Vivica felt even more strongly that the man before her was an absolute treasure.

Words couldn't fully express how she felt in that moment. She froze for two seconds, then wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning in to initiate a kiss.

Joseph was momentarily stunned before his blood began to boil.

His tall, broad frame instantly straightened up, his arms tightening around her as their bodies pressed seamlessly together.

However, the kiss didn't last too long. It was Joseph who pulled back first.

As they parted, a thin, silver thread of saliva stretched between them.

Vivica noticed it and her face burned violently; she wished the floor would swallow her whole.

Joseph chuckled softly, offering an explanation. "It's getting late. Let's wash up and head to bed, yeah?"

Clearly, Mr. Baird wanted much more.

But covered in sweat and needing a shower, he definitely couldn't continue like this.

So, he had to rein in his racing heart and hit pause.

Vivica kept her eyes lowered, completely unable to look at him. Her mind was entirely consumed by the sensation of that "silver thread" snapping and pulling back against her lips.

God, she was losing her mind...

Why had she gotten so hot-headed and initiated that?

What must he be thinking?

—That she was this thirsty after just two days apart?

While Vivica was still drowning in embarrassment, Joseph took her silence as consent and scooped her up into his arms.

"Hey, you—mmph!"

Just as she was about to protest, the lawyer leaned down and captured her lips again. Kissing her the whole way, he carried her into the bathroom and kicked the door shut behind them.

On the desk, the bouquet of elegant, sophisticated purple tulips bloomed quietly under the lamplight, breathtakingly beautiful.
