Hearing this, Maverick Knight paused for a few seconds while applying the medicine to her.
His gaze moved from the allergic spot upward and met those extremely alluring and beautiful starry eyes. She had just said that sentence with a smile, and the smile on her face and in her eyes had not yet faded.
At night, the apartment was very quiet.
The TV wasn't on, and when neither of them spoke, the room became even more tranquil.
He continued to apply the medicine to her, his voice as deep as ever, "Then don't leave."
Then don't leave.
These four words, when separated, are simple enough, but when combined and added to his tone, Aurora Blaine was momentarily dazed.
He should have heard that she was joking, just saying it casually, right?
"I was joking," Aurora Blaine said.
Maverick Knight: "I know."
Aurora Blaine blinked, so was he just playing along with her joke?
She was thinking this when the man's sexy and pleasant voice sounded again.
"But I'm not joking."
