Chapter 605

Josie's cheeks flamed with a mix of shyness and embarrassment as she heard Oliver's voice drift through the door.

"Josie, your clothes are on the couch. They're all clean and dry. I'll be downstairs, waiting for you. Let's grab some dinner together."

Once Oliver left, Josie listened carefully for the sound of the door closing behind him. She peeked out to make sure she was alone and that the curtains were tightly shut. Wrapping herself in the blanket, she grabbed her clothes from the couch, including her underwear.

In the bathroom, Josie found the white sundress she had bought, along with underwear that fit her perfectly. Holding the underwear, she wished she could disappear from the sheer embarrassment.

Shaking off her thoughts, she quickly dressed and tied her hair into a simple ponytail. Noticing a toothbrush, cup, and face towel on the washbasin, Josie freshened up before heading downstairs.

...

Still fuming, Josie stormed forward until Oliver caught up with her. He scooped her

up into his arms, settling on the couch, holding her tight.

"Oliver, let me go," Josie demanded, her eyes darting around nervously.

"Don't worry, everyone's gone. It's just us."

Despite Oliver's reassurances, Josie struggled to break free. "You did this on purpose, Oliver!"

"Okay, it's all my fault. Blame me. Just calm down, will you?"

Holding her closer, he whispered in her ear, "Josie, I swear I didn't see anything. If it makes you feel better, I could strip down for you. How about that?"

Josie was stunned.

"What the heck, Oliver!"

"Josie, stop being such a tease. Why wouldn't you want to see me? Not happy with my physique? I can work out more, make you happy."

Josie couldn't help but laugh, finally freeing herself and sitting beside him.

"Oliver, what are you thinking? You see me, I see you, and that makes us even? Why didn't you just take me home?"

"Josie, I was worried about what your parents would think. I didn't want you to wake up feeling worse."

Josie was at a loss for words. Nothing had happened between her and Oliver; there were no marks on her body.

As she pondered this, Oliver took her hand, looking deeply into her eyes. "Josie, let's get married."

Josie was shocked. "Oliver, what are you talking about?"

"I'm serious. If it makes you feel secure, transfer everything I to you My properties, everything will be yours. What do you say? content .net>

Oliver's sincerity was undeniable.

Josie panicked; she hadn't even thought about marriage yet. She still wanted to continue her studies.

"Oliver, let's just cool down for a bit, okay? We can talk about marriage later."

Josie tried to pull away, but Oliver held onto her hand, not letting go.

"Why wait? If you're going to marry me eventually, what difference does it make if it's sooner or later? We don't need to have kids if you don't want to. Whenever you're ready, we'll think about it. If not, it'll just be the two of us. You want to go back to school? That's perfectly fine."

Oliver's gaze was soft but firm, his determination and the tenderness in his eyes making dosie's heart race with

a whirlwind of emotions.
