He couldn’t suppress his desire for her for too long. That kiss lasted a full three minutes. By the time Dexter was willing to let go, Josie’s lips had already turned a vivid, beautiful red.

She stared blankly at him. Just as she was about to raise her hand, he swiftly intercepted it.

After the kiss, Dexter’s mood had significantly improved. He reached out to wipe the corner of her mouth. “You should at least show me some sincerity in return.”

He paused for a moment, feeling that his choice of words was inappropriate. “I don’t need anything else. A single kiss would be enough.”

Josie was so appalled by his shamelessness that she couldn’t utter a single word. She leaned weakly against the wall, and Dexter straightened her disheveled collar for her, saying, “I heard it.”

“Heard what?”

“Your heart was also beating.”

“I’d be dead if it didn’t.”

Dexter slightly curved his lips. “I have arrhythmia, often experiencing symptoms of palpitations. Just now, your heartbeat was racing just as fast as mine.”

Josie fell silent.

Inexplicably, Josie’s ears turned a shade of red. She turned around and left, muttering under her breath, “Shameless scoundrel.”
