Chapter 1899
Sophie Kenwick nodded eagerly, unable to hide her excitement anymore. "Yes, that''s right, I like you a lot. I heard that you are holding a concert soon, isn''t that so? I''ll be there."
“Sure, if you need tickets to the concert, you can get them from X," Josh Batton replied.
"I''ll be getting the tickets soon, and I won''t need her help," she said.
"Okay. Aren''t you going to invite me in?" he asked.
As Josh spoke, his orange-scented cologne, apanied by the cold wind, wafted through the air toward her once again.
It made her feel at ease.
She instantly stepped aside and made an inviting gesture toward Josh.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
He never stopped smiling as he stepped inside and changed into a pair of white slippers while hanging his coat by the entrance. Immediately after that, he closed the door and gazed at Sophie. "Let''s go and sit down," he suggested affectionately.
Sophie nodded, leading him to the couch before they both sat down.
For some reason, she felt nervous in front of her idol and didn''t know what to say.
After a few seconds of silence, Sophie struck up a conversation. "What cologne are you using? It smells amazing." "Le Jardin de Monsieur Li," Josh answered.
"It suits you very well," she said.
"Thank you."
After that, Josh initiated a new topic. "You must be in university at your age, right?"
"I''m not studying anymore. I''m working for X as her bodyguard."
"Why aren''t you studying?" he asked.
“Because I''ve learned everything there is to know, so there''s no reason for me to keep studying,” Sophie said.
Josh didn''t ask any further, merely nodding politely. "I see, so you''re quite smart then."
"I''m not as good as you at singing or dancing, but I''m not too bad. You also look much better than I do," she said. "Thank you."
"Aren''t you married? Why didn''t you bring your wife?" Sophie wondered.
“She didn''t feel likeing out as it was cold, and that''s why I came alone," Josh exined.
"Your wife sure is lucky to be able to look at a handsome guy like you every day," she teased.
Josh spontaneouslyughed when he heard this.
Right then, X walked out of the kitchen with four sses of orange juice after she had finished preparing some.
As soon as Josh saw this, he quickly approached her to help with the sses.
X chuckled. "Thank you. How has Annabeth beentely?"
Josh nodded with a tender look in his eyes. "She''s doing great. Just a little weary of the cold, and she doesn''t like being outdoors." "That''s one of the symptoms of being pregnant. You should pay more attention to her. It''s tough being pregnant," X said.
Josh''s smile widened. "Yes, I will.
What about you? How have you been? haven''t been to the office for
a long time, and I haven''t seen either."
"I''m doing all right," X replied.

While the two of them chatted, Sophie couldn''t resist taking a picture of Josh discreetly.
Her hands trembled a little when she took the picture, resulting in a blurry photo of his figure from behind.
When Josh heard the sound of the
camera, ke immediately turned around to look at Sophie. "If you wanted a picture, you don''t have to take one in secret, you know? I can take a picture with youter."
Sophie scratched her head in embarrassment. “Okay, thank you." "Don''t mention it."
After that, he carried the sses over to the couch, cing one in front of Sophie. Then, he put the other in front of the empty seat next to him before taking one ss for himself.
Meanwhile, X silently sat next to Josh, drinking her orange juice while chatting with him about work.
