When Kendrix heard Sylvia's words, he raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a faint smile. He asked, "What do you mean?"
He did not want to admit it.
Sylvia's eyes widened. "What do you mean when you told Claudia to take her time to do the laundry?"
At the same time, Sylvia realised that her question was a little too straightforward. How could Kendrix not understand?
He clearly understood her question, but he was playing reverse psychology instead. Sylvia was sure that he did it on purpose.
Did it mean that he wanted to spend more time alone with her?
Sylvia looked at Kendrix and muttered to herself.
That must be it! Otherwise, how could an arrogant person like him do such a thing?
Sylvia was delighted at that thought.
It turned out that he wanted to spend some time alone with her!
Sylvia's lips parted in an instant, revealing her pearly white teeth. She said to Kendrix coquettishly, "Oh, Mr. Trevino, does it mean you want to spend some time alone with me?"
Kendrix smiled slightly and moved a little closer to her. A dangerous aura emanated from his body.
Sylvia's face immediately turned red as Kendrix slowly moved towards her. She sensed his intimidation.
Her body immediately tensed. She wanted to run away from it, but she was also looking forward to what potentially might happen.
Kendrix could tell that Sylvia was a little shy, yet she was also looking forward to what was about to happen.
Kendrix was still rational. After all, it was Claudia's apartment. He was a relatively selfish and overbearing in this respect. Even if he wanted to make a move, he would not do it somebody else's house.
Even if Claudia gave them space, he would not act rashly, unless they were in a completely safe space.
Kendrix just lowered his head to look at the shy girl in front of him. All kinds of emotions flashed through his eyes. He looked at Sylvia and slowly closed his eyes.
However, he didn't do anything further.
Sylvia was anticipating his kiss. She thought he would make a move, but he did not.
She was nervous and excited to find out what he would do at the same time.
However, when she realised that Kendrix was not going to do anything, she became even more embarrassed.
She was looking forward to his next move and felt deeply ashamed of her expectations.
She thought that Kendrix would lower his head and kiss her.
Yet, no, it did not happen!
Sylvia shook her head subconsciously, feeling extremely embarrassed for her own anticipation.
Kendrix was stunned when he saw Sylvia shaking her head. He narrowed his eyes and asked in a hoarse voice, "Why are you shaking your head?"
His voice was so low and hoarse that it made Sylvia tremble a little. It gave her goosebumps.
She subconsciously raised her head and looked into Kendrix's deep eyes, her heart still pounding for him.
She was stunned.
Sylvia was very beautiful. She was like your typical girl next door, with bright and beautiful eyes. Her hair was long and wavy. Her skin was white as snow and she had a rosy complexion.
However, the Sylvia in front of Kendrix was shy and timid then. She was acting a little coquettish as well, like a little girl. Any man would be attracted to her.
Kendrix was deeply attracted to her, even his pupils contracted suddenly. He was about to reach out his hand, but in the end he still stopped himself.
Sylvia pouted and said, "No reason."
She shook her head again and said, "Really, it's nothing."
Kendrix did not believe her. He wondered what was going on inside her head.
"I think I'm going to help Claudia with her laundry." Sylvia felt that it was a lot of pressure for her to be alone with Kendrix.
Therefore, she decided it was best if she went to look for Claudia before anything would happen, lest she get teased by her again later on.
Just as Sylvia was about to stand up, Kendrix reached out and grabbed her wrist.
She was scared stiff and turned to look at Kendrix.
"Do you know how to do laundry?" Kendrix asked.
Stunned, Sylvia pursed her lips and said, "Do you really think that I'm that useless?"
"No, of course not. It's just that you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth," Kendrix said.
"This sounds sarcastic," Sylvia muttered, "Are you looking down on me?"
