Chapter 1187
Alvina stepped into the hall on the second floor and saw that there was a man sitting at a table near
the window drinking tea. His expression was rxed and Alvina quickly walked over to him, causing
Joseph to turn and look at her.
Against the light, his facial features were extremely beautiful. Even the smile on his eyebrows had
taken on certain warmth.
Alvina never knew what beckoning felt like, but the moment she was looked at by him, her heart
started to thump hard, and even her breathing had almost stopped.
"You''re here?" The man stood up and took two steps towards her politely. His voice was low and
gentle.
Alvina regained the rhythm of her breathing, and a flush shed across her snow white and
exquisite face.
She lowered her head, not daring to look him in the eye. With a vague "En", she pretended to be
unfamiliar with him as she walked around him and sat in the seat opposite of him.
Joseph''s eyes showed that he was slightly startled and he couldn''t help but bite his lips. He turned
around and saw that the girl had already sat down and was staring at the menu on the table.
"For just few days, you are new to me?" Joseph did not expect her to be so cold. He asked jokingly.
Alvina was actually not cold at all. She just didn''t know how to handle his enthusiasm. She could
only pretend to be calm. Unfortunately, her act was not good enough, in Joseph''s eyes, it was cold.
"We weren''t familiar with each other before. Hahaha!" When Alvina looked up, it was as if all the
light above her head had been injected into the depths of her eyes. Only now did Joseph realize
how blue her eyes were. After dyeing, they looked like crystal, showing pure temperament.
The man''s heart skipped a beat as he had never seen a woman so close to him before. With a
casual nce, he discovered that she had such beautiful eyes and her skin was very white, giving
off a bright luster. He didn''t even need to touch her to know that she was soft and smooth, making
him want to pinch her.
"That''s right. We should be familiar with each other by the time we finish a few more meals!" Joseph
suddenly became humorous. Previously, he always felt that being with women was a boring thing to
do, and he even had to find topics to liven up the atmosphere, it would be tiring.
Now that Alvina was sitting opposite of him, his mind was filled with thoughts of teasing her.
"What is this ce? I''ve never been here before, and I didn''t know there was such a restaurant
here." Alvina asked curiously, looking around with her beautiful eyes.
"This is a restaurant specially used to receive guests from outside the country. It''s not open to the
public, so of course you wouldn''t know about it." Joseph exined with a smile.
"Oh, I see!" Alvina slightly pouted. She understood.
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.
Seeing her pouting, Joseph darkened his eyes a little. So there was really a woman who looked
good even when she pouted.
"Does your grandfather know you came to see me?" Joseph took a sip of the tea and asked
casually.
"He knows, I told him." Alvina thought about what her grandfather had said, and her face heated up
again.
"Then did your grandfather tell you anything?" Joseph was trying to find the right words to say.
Alvina''s heart skipped a beat. That can''t be, how did this man know what his grandfather had
warned her before?
Could it be that he could see through people''s thoughts?
"No, my grandpa just wanted me to get along with you and not argue with you!" Alvina''s beautiful
eyes shed, and replied while looking at the menu.
Joseph''s thin lips couldn''t help but rise: "So your grandfather thought you would quarrel with me?"
Alvina was stumped by his words and rolled her eyes, "Should we order first? I didn''t have much to
eat for lunch, so I''m a little hungry now."
Joseph quickly called for a waiter to help them order the dishes. When Alvina saw that the staff
were especially respectful to Joseph, aplex feeling rose in her heart. People were all respectful
to Joseph. What about her?
"Have a cup of tea. Is it boring to be with me?" Joseph did not have those flowery thoughts in his
head, so he was really worried that Alvina would feel that he was bored and overdone.
"No!" Alvina quickly rid herself of all the thoughts in her head and carried the tea up for drinking.
"Then why are you still in a daze? What are you thinking about?" Joseph suddenly asked curiously.
Alvina put down her teacup andughed self-deprecatingly, "I just feel that your life is one that I
have never experienced before. It''s kind of novel."
"Then do you want to know more about me?" hearing her say that, Joseph changed his expression.
His voice became deeper.
Alvina stared nkly for a moment before nodding her head, "If it''s convenient, I would of course
like to get to know you more. Otherwise, if we were to get married in the future, it would be a little
toote to get to know each other."
"Thene home with me after dinner!" Joseph did not reject her invitation to enter his life, and
allowed her to do so very straightforwardly.
"Is your family there too?" Alvina''s heart jumped, although this man was inviting her in all
seriousness, she did not know why, but her heart was beating extremely quickly as she became
nervous.
"They won''t live with me. If you want to see them, I''ll take you there another day." Joseph exined
with a faint smile.
"There''s no need. We still don''t have to meet with the parents yet. Let''s get to know each other
first!" When Alvina heard that he wanted to take her to see his family, she immediately tensed up.
Joseph could see her nervousness and uneasiness. He lowered his head and smiled, "Alright, I
won''t force you to decide whether or not you want to meet them!"
Alvina secretly heaved a sigh of relief, then picked up the teacup on the table and drank a few
mouthfuls of tea.
Strange, why did her mouth be dry when she was with this man?
"The night scenery outside this window is so quiet. There''s not even the sound of a water wheel."
Alvina looked out of the window and only saw a field of quiet lights and a few cars entering and
exiting.
"This is a political area, there aren''t many people here. Don''t you like this kind of environment?"
Joseph''s expression tensed up.
"No, actually, I don''t like noisy ces!" What Alvina said was also the truth. Ever since the incident
with her father, she liked to stay at home and didn''t like to interact with others. After her grandfather
sent her out of the country to study, she slowly opened her heart to ept everything in this world.
However, her lively and active temperament changed ever since she was a child. She no longer had
that kind of passion for everything.
The delicious delicacies were served to them. Alvina withdrew her train of thought and raised her
head, coincidentally meeting the eyes of the man in front of her.
One was like deep sea, while the other was like autumnke. They felt awkward seeing into each
other’s eyes and quickly moved away.
"Eat!" Joseph lowered his head and chuckled. When he saw her flustered look away just now, he
actually felt that she was extremely adorable.
