After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back by Riverflow

Chapter 1059

Jolie let out a startled gasp, her wide eyes meeting Gavin's as her body stiffened. Perched awkwardly on his lap, she didn't dare move.

"But you took a shower, got so close to me, and then asked if I wanted to stay. If that's not an invitation, then what is it?"

His voice was low and deliberate as his strong arm wrapped around her slender waist, holding her firmly in place. His dark eyes locked onto hers, catching the panic flashing through them.

Jolie's breath hitched, her lips trembling slightly, as though even her soft, petal-like lips were reacting to his words. Her hands instinctively grabbed his arm, feeling the solid, defined muscles beneath her fingers-a testament to years of disciplined fitness. "Mr. Cooper, I..." she began, but before she could finish, his hand tipped her chin up, and his lips captured hers.

Her eyes widened in shock, and she instinctively tried to pull away, but his grip was unrelenting.

The kiss was searing, his breath hot and consuming as he dominated her lips. His intensity left her gasping for air as he claimed every corner of her sweetness.

"Mm!"

It wasn't a kiss of finesse but one of raw possession, clumsy yet overpowering. The roughness made her uncomfortable, her body twisting in protest.

"What are you squirming for?" Gavin growled, his breath heavy as he shifted, pinning her down on the sofa. His broad chest loomed over her, amplifying her smallness and fragility beneath him.
