Chapter 194

"Is something on your mind?" asked Joaquin, who got out of the shower only to see Katherine absorbed in her thoughts with her cheek resting on her palm.

She turned her head reflexively and looked at him.

Since he just took a shower, the moisture on his body was not completely dry. In addition to that, the loose bathrobe vaguely revealed his masculine chest, which could make one get the wrong idea. She had always heard of people describing a woman luscious, but she never expected it to be the suitable word to depict Joaquin at this very moment.

This man was attractively demonizing, especially that face of his; it would not be an exaggeration to describe him as the Statue of David.

According to Katherine's memory, Hera and John did not look like that. Thus, Katherine assumed that Joaquin took after his mother.

Katherine's scorching gaze made his heart race as he approached her closer. It was not until a hot breath caressed her face that she finally pulled herself together. She blushed upon realizing that she had been staring at his face.

As though nothing had happened, she turned her head elsewhere to not look at the man. Never in her wildest dream had she foreseen herself to be distracted by one's beauty.

It's all this man's fault! Why is he seducing me after taking a shower?

She took a deep breath before giving a response nonchalantly. "Nothing. I just thought of Grandma's words."

"Do you think that something doesn't fit the puzzle for what had happened that year?" He comprehended the meaning behind her words. After taking a seat next to her, Joaquin dried his hair with a cloth while asking in a languid manner.

She was repulsed by the close proximity out of instinct. At this moment, every breath of his brushed across her ear and her heart was beating uncontrollably.
