Chapter 1058 "Alright," Gavin agreed without hesitation.

Jolie fell silent.

She led the way out of the car, her expression less than pleased. This wasn't how the night was supposed to go.

She and Gavin were from two entirely different worlds, and there was no reason for their paths to cross like this. Where had things gone wrong? As they walked, an image flashed through her mind-Gavin's gaze when he looked at Selena. At that moment, her eyes grew colder.

Her apartment was on the 17th floor. At this late hour, the elevator was empty, leaving just the two of them.

Jolie stood in front, the reflective elevator walls showing Gavin's sharp, handsfeatures. He kept his gaze lowered, his face expressionless.

Ding! The elevator doors opened, and Jolie stepped out first, entering her apartment by scanning her fingerprint. She opened the door and retrieved a pair of men's slippers from the shoe cabinet, placing them in front of him. "Please, Mr. Cooper." Gavin's gaze flickered briefly over the shoe cabinet. Alongside the men's slippers were men's dress shoes and sneakers.

After switching into the slippers, he asked casually, "Do you have a boyfriend?" Jolie shook her head. "No." His eyes lingered on her for a moment, but he said nothing further.

Jolie didn't feel the need to explain herself, either.

In her mind, she began to piece together why he was acting so strangely. If her suspicion was correct, this situation was going to become... messy. Turning away, she grabbed a cup and set the water to boil. When she glanced back, she found Gavin standing silently in the living room.

Her apartment was a spacious single-floor unit, unit, spanning 200 square meters. Normally, the space felt a bit empty with just her there But with him standing quietly in the center, it no longer felt that way-he seemed to fill the room with his presence alone.

"Please, take a seat. It'll just be a moment," Jolie said as she walked over.

"Alright," Gavin replied, his deep voice calm as he took a seat on the sofa.

The apartment was decorated in a style that reflected Jolie's personal taste-simple and rustic, with bright, warm tones that exuded a sense of comfort and charm.

After retreating to her bedroom for a shower, she changed into a fresh set of clothes. When she cback out, the water had already boiled, but instead of making tea, she walked straight to Gavin. Leaning over him, one hand resting on the back of the sofa, she brought herself close, her presence enveloping him with a soft, fragrant warmth.

Gavin looked up, his calm gaze meeting her face, now just inches away.

He remained still, his expression unreadable, as her eyes flicked down to his lips, then to his nose, before finally locking with his own.

"Mr. Cooper," she said boldly, her voice soft but teasing, "it's late. Are you planning to stay the night?" Jolie had never said anything so forward before. But to test her suspicions, she didn't mind stepping out of her comfort zone just this once.

Fresh from her shower, her skin glowed faintly, and the lingering warmth of the steam gave her cheeks a soft flush. Her captivating eyes sparkled with mischief, her lips curving into the faintest hint of a playful smile. She looked every bit like a mischievous little IM fox-beautiful and daring.

"You're inviting me," he said evenly, his deep voice steady, though he made no move.

Jolie's confidence began to waver.

The sheer weight of his gaze and the shof her own actions were enough to make her second-guess herself. She wasn't cut out for seduction.

Her lashes trembled, her hesitation betraying her inner turmoil. Should she push a little further? What if she had misunderstood his intentions all along?

Her eyes flickered, and with a quick motion, she straightened up, pulling away to reestablish sdistance. "I was just asking if you wanted to stay, Mr. Cooper. It's late, after all. I didn't mean anything else." Without waiting for a response, she turned toward the kitchen to make him tea.

But before she could take a step, a firm hand gripped her wrist, yanking her back with surprising force.

The next thing she knew, she had fallen into his lap, his strong arms holding her firmly in place.
