Chapter 1071 Jolie felt a sudden tightness in her chest.

She glanced at the group of girls nearby. They looked anxious and uneasy but still glanced at Gavin with curiosity and anticipation.

She scoffed silently. "What's so special about him anyway?" ""You all can head back now." Disappointment flashed across their faces in varying degrees as they turned and left.

Once they were gone, Jolie turned to Gavin. "Mr. Cooper, I think it would be better if you gavea clear set of criteria. Searching blindly like this is unlikely to meet your expectations." "You don't need to go through all that trouble," Gavin replied, extinguishing his cigarette in the ashtray. His gaze remained calm as it settled on her.

Jolie seemed to anticipate what he was about to say and quickly added, "I don't find it troublesome. Just tellyour requirements." Gavin said nothing, his eyes heavy as they lingered on her.

Here we go again," she thought.

That familiar oppressive aura washed over her.

She wasn't his subordinate, so why did he always look at her like that? How frustrating! Under the weight of his gaze, Jolie forced a smile.

"Chere," Gavin suddenly said.

There was still a table between them, and Jolie was standing quite a distance away.

Instead of moving closer, she maintained her smile and replied, "If you have instructions, Mr. Cooper, feel free to say them. I can hear you just fine." Gavin parted his lips and said something.

Instinctively, Jolie asked, "What?" Gavin didn't repeat himself, simply fixing her with a look that seemed to say, "Didn't you say you could hear me?" Jolie was speechless.

It took her a moment to realize his intention, and she couldn't help but think how utterly childish and ridiculous this man was.

But she owed him a favor, and there was no getting around that.

With a resigned sigh, she braced herself and started walking toward him.

When she was about two meters away, she stopped and asked, "Mr. Cooper, what are your instructions?" Gavin stayed silent, his gaze steady and unreadable.

Jolie took a deep breath and stepped another meter closer. Now, if he extended his hand, he could almost touch her.

"Mr. Cooper, what would you liketo do?" she asked again.

At this point, she felt like a servant attending to a demanding noble.

Still, Gavin said nothing, his eyes dark and inscrutable as they bore into her.

Jolie's brow furrowed, and her patience was wearing thin.

This man had an uncanny ability to push her limits.

She didn't step closer but let her smile fade slightly.

"Mr. Cooper, if you're not going to say anything, how am I supposed to know what you're thinking? I'm not a mind reader," she said, her tone UTA of composure was visibly crane calmennow, though her mask Gavin looked at her with an amused expression, a rare sight on his otherwise cold and indifferent face.

However, Jolie felt a chill run down her spine.

"I was just thinking," he said, "how .n

you might try to weasel your way out of this. Do all women go back on their word so easily? That my bed you 16 That night, in Noy swore to repay me-whatever I asked. But now, the moment I nmy price, you're doing everything you can to dodge it.

Tell me, Miss Quin, doesn't that strike you as a little hypocritical?" Jolie was speechless.

She could barely keep up the pretense.

Pressing her lips together, she replied, "Mr. Cooper, it shouldn't be hard to see that I don't want to have too much to do with you." Gavin nodded. "I see that. And?" Jolie frowned slightly. "So, can't you propose a different condition? One I'll do my best to fulfill." "I did, but you didn't fulfil it." His gaze remained calm and unyielding, like an ancient well devoid of ripples.

Jolie was left speechless.

Leaning back in his chair, Gavin continued watching her with adetached air. "You'd rather make NO things difficult for yourself than get entangled with me. But have you considered this? If I remain unsatisfied, you'll have to keep seeing me."
