Chapter 1128 "Awake?" Gavin walked over to her, his gaze falling on her slightly dazed face. Without warning, he reached out and pinched her cheek. The action was natural, even intimate, leaving her no tto react.

Gavin wasn't one to overthink-when he wanted to do something, he simply did it.

Truth be told, he'd wanted to do this for a long time.

Her cheeks were softer than he had imagined, and the sensation was oddly satisfying.

Jolie nodded, then asked, "Didn't you go to work?" "I'm back," Gavin replied simply.

Back already? She was a bit surprised but didn't linger on it. Instead, she said, "There's something I need to tell you." Gavin naturally took her hand and led her to the sofa. Sitting down beside her, he said, "Go ahead." Jolie hesitated for a moment, then said, "Technically, I'm still abroad." The statement seemed abrupt and confusing, something that would make no sense to anyone unfamiliar with the context.

But Gavin understood immediately.

He nodded. "I know. Selena helped you with that." Jolie let out a small breath of relief. It would be much easier to explain now.

"My family sentabroad to forceto behave. They even cut off my finances. But their real goal was to pushcloser to you." As she spoke, Jolie carefully studied Gavin's expression.

His face remained calm and indifferent, as though none of this mattered to him in the slightest.

Seeing no reaction, Jolie continued, "Now that I'm with you, it's essentiallygiving in to them. So, I need to go back to the country." Her family would likely try to welcher back with open arms after hearing about her relationship with Gavin. If she wanted to maintain the illusion, she had to make a trip overseas.

But Gavin easily saw through her intentions. "You wantto take you abroad?" Jolie nodded, a bit sheepishly. "Exactly." Gavin raised an eyebrow. "So, I've becyour tool? Just a last-resort choice?" Jolie was stunned.

How did this man's brain work so fast? topicdn't they just stick to theet topic at hand? Why did he have to dig g deeper into things? "It's not like that. Don't overthink it," Jolie said quickly.

Gavin, however, calmly replied, "Even if that's exactly what you think, it's fine." Jolie blinked at him in confusion. "Wait... you're saying you wouldn't mind if it was like that?" "I would mind," Gavin said matter-of-factly. "But there's no point in dwelling on it." Now Jolie was completely lost. She couldn't keep up with his train of thought.

Seeing her confusion, Gavin elaborated, "Because we're already together. Obsessing over why you decided to be withdoesn't matter. It would only create tension between us, and I want to be with you don't want us to start with I our relationship with unnecessary conflict or arguments." Jolie stared at him, utterly dumbfounded.

Gavin found her wide-eyed, innocent expression unexpectedly adorable and leaned in to steal a quick kiss. Caught off guard by the sudden gesture, Jolie blinked and asked, "So... what you care about is the future?" "Exactly," Gavin replied.

She cared about the present.

He cared about the future.

Their goals weren't entirely aligned,

but Gavin didn't mind. He firmly believed he could change her m perspective, just as he had turned her initial rejection into their current relationship. The man brimmed with confidence.

Jolie, feeling relieved that he wasn't pressing the issue further, asked, "so, when are you takingabroad?" "No rush," Gavin replied casually.

"Huh?" Jolie blinked in surprise. "What do you mean, no rush? Do you Have something else to do first?" Gavin's lips curved slightly as he said, "There are plenty of things I need to take care of." With that, he suddenly stood up.
