"Isn't that good?" Kendrix asked again.
Sylvia lifted her gaze and met Kendrix's eyes. His deep gaze had a subtle smile in it.
Then, she lowered her head shyly and shook her head. "Of course. A man who knows how to treasure a woman is very charming."
The reason why Sylvia was so crazy over Kendrix was exactly because he had a charming personality.
The moment Sylvia saw Kendrix, it was as if the entire world stopped.
"So, are you saying that I'm charming?" Kendrix's voice became even hoarser and it was magnetic. His voice was like music to her ears.
Sylvia would feel tingling sensations all over her body whenever she heard his voice.
"Of course you are! That's the reason why I like you so much," Sylvia said, blushing even more.
Kendrix smiled, revealing his pearly whites. "Do you really like me?"
Sylvia immediately nodded her head firmly.
Of course she liked him. She liked him very much.
At that moment, Kendrix was still holding Sylvia's wrist while his eyes were fixated on hers.
When Kendrix saw her nod her head, he then said, "I want to hear it out loud."
"Ah?" Sylvia was stunned.
She did not expect Kendrix to make such a request. She was a little embarrassed to say it out loud because they were in Claudia's apartment.
She pursed her lips and found it hard to actually say it.
"Say it." Kendrix suddenly demanded, sounding a little insistent.
Sylvia looked up to meet Kendrix's eyes, then she suddenly turned her face away and shifted her gaze around. She then looked down on the floor as she mustered up the courage to say it. She was so nervous that she felt a little uncomfortable as she swallowed.
She did like Kendrix very much.
She liked him since a long time ago. In fact, Kendrix should have known about that. Why did he have to force her to admit it out loud?
That time, Kendrix seemed a little stubborn about his request.
He kept his eyes fixed on Sylvia and waited patiently. When Sylvia did not speak, he narrowed his eyes slightly. He said in a low voice, "Do you not dare to admit it?"
Sylvia shook her head. "I'm just a little embarrassed to say it out loud."
"That's not like you." Kendrix glanced at Sylvia's face. Her entire face was red. Even her ears and neck were red as well. She looked really adorable at that moment.
"I like you!" Sylvia finally gathered up enough courage to admit it. She shouted out loud. "I like you very much!"
Kendrix was right. She did not look like herself recently. She used to be brave and carefree.
However, as she managed to catch Kendrix's attention then, she suddenly became afraid that she would lose him.
She felt like a little girl without a sense of security. That was not her at all.
Sylvia should be brave.
There was nothing that she couldn't say. She would just have to accept the fact that she liked Kendrix.
How would she not dare to admit that she liked him in front of him?
Kendrix was caught off guard by Sylvia's sudden utterances. It was very straightforward.
Kendrix held Sylvia's wrist and gently stroked it. Her wrist was so delicate, her skin was translucent.
Kendrix's eyes darkened.
Sylvia noticed it.
The atmosphere became quiet in an instant.
Neither one of them spoke. They sat in the living room and stared silently into each other's eyes. It was as if their eyes were glued together, like there was an invisible force attracting them.
Claudia, who was in her bedroom, quietly opened the door and looked through the gap of the slightly open door.
