Bits of the explicit and embarrassing details still lingered in Josephine’s memory, making her almost afraid to face Ethan. Even so,
she was even angrier with Dane’s behavior. | must expose the true colors of a sc*mbag and a monster like him!
After realizing that there was no one in the room, she couldn’t help but move her hands away from her face. Then, she carefully
sized the room up. This room seems to be a guest room rather than the master bedroom of the suite. So, does that mean Ethan
carriedhere while | was asleep? In fact, my body feels extremely refreshed. This simply means another event took place before
| went to bed, and that was, Ethan had cleanedup. Ah! This is so embarrassing! | don’t want to live anymore.
Just then, footsteps sounded outside the door. At once, Josephine pulled up the blanket and wrapped herself in it. Looking at the
protruding figure under the blanket, Ethan couldn't help but curve his lips upward in amusement. Still, he eventually sat down on
the edge of the bed gently and patted her lightly. “Are you awake?”
Upon hearing Ethan's voice, Josephine waved her hands and refused to lift the blanket. “What's the matter? You don’t wish to see
As soon as Josephine heard what he said, she immediately got out of the blanket and praised, “No, no. You are good.” After hearing

Josephine gulped and nodded. Then, her eyes wandered to Ethan's neck, which was slightly uncovered. When she saw the eye-
catching hickeys that she had left on his neck, she couldn't help admiring them rather daringly.
Suddenly, Ethan passed her the bag of clothes. that he carried with him. “Here. | brought these over for you. Get up, put them on,
and let's go home.”
“Huh? Home?" Josephine blinked, feeling puzzled. “The villa is ready, so we can move in,” Ethan explained. After all, he had always
been someone who was the fastest when it cto taking action. Moreover, everything in the villa had been fully customized. All
they needed to do was move in.
“That's quick.” Josephine blinked in amazement. At the stime, she couldn't wait to move in with Ethan.
“] don’t want to take you to stay at a hotel anymore. | want to spend twith you at home.” With that, Ethan bent down and
kissed her on the forehead. “Let's go hand take our shower again.” Upon hearing that, Josephine said a little sheepishly, “Can
you leave and letget changed?”
Instead of leaving the room, Ethan smiled and turned around. Josephine felt somewhat powerless when she saw this. Therefore,
she had no choice but to hurriedly change her clothes with his back facing her.
Once she was done, she followed Ethan to the underground parking lot of the hotel and got into the car. Looking at the neon
lighting outside the window, Josephine felt a sense of security and exceptional warmth in her heart at the stime. A lifelong
devastating event nearly happened totoday, but thanks to him, | was saved from it.
“Ethan, thank you.” Josephine expressed her gratitude softly. Upon hearing that, Ethan reached out and embraced her. “Thank me?
Nah... You don’t have to be so courteous aroundnow that we have upgraded our relationship.”
Curving her lips into a smile, Josephine- hummed, “Okay! | won't in the future.” When they arrived outside the gate of the villa, the
night view of a brightly lit villa that was filled with a mysterious and grandeur aura was reflected in Josephine’s eyes.
Seeing that Josephine was in a daze, Ethan held her hand and led her into the brightly lit hall. Josephine was still studying the

waist from behind and rested his chin gently on her shoulder. “From now on, this is our home.”
Like Ethan, Josephine was thrilled to share a hwith him so soon. She turned around and hugged his waist. “| like this ha
lot.”
Afterward, Josephine went upstairs to take a bath. She comfortably breathed a gentle sigh of relief as she soaked herself in the tub
of lukewarm water. Just then, the door of the bathroom slid open without warning.
This took Josephine by great surprise that she immediately hid her body under the water, revealing only her head. Panic was
written on her face as she looked at the man who cin. | can’t believe he comes in wearing nothing but his boxers. Wait a
minute! Is he coming in to take a shower too?
“A-Are you in a rush to take a shower?” Josephine blinked as she asked. Unsparingly showing off his well-built figure, Ethan winked
at Josephine. “Don’t worry. | won't fight for the bathtub with you.”
As soon as he said that, he made his way toward the shower section and closed the door that separated the wet section from the
dry section. However, the door wasn’t solid at all. It was merely a layer of glass that distinctly and vaguely covered the silhouette
of the person inside the shower. This, in Josephine’s opinion, wasn’t considered as covered at all.
