Cynthia stared at him and retorted, “Do you want me to give you another punch?”

Joshua remained silent.

Perhaps it was because he was no longer worried, or maybe it was the romantic lighting in the room, but he felt irresistibly drawn to Cynthia, and he really wanted to be close to her.

Joshua approached Cynthia step by step, enveloping Cynthia with his domineering aura.

Cynthia furrowed her brow and disliked the atmosphere.

Joshua’s eyes grew darker, and his breathing became heavier.

“At this point, do you think I’ll let you go?”

“Do you want to sleep with me?” Cynthia asked.

Joshua got even closer, and he could smell the fresh, light fragrance emanating from her body.

With a hoarse voice, he whispered, “Yes.”

Cynthia did not answer him.

Just when she was about to ignore him, Joshua suddenly carried her and placed her on the bed.
