Chapter 1068
Jolie didn't like the way Gavin's gaze lingered on her.
It was heavy, oppressive, and carried an intensity that made her inexplicably tense and uneasy.
"Mr. Cooper, aren't you busy these days?" she asked, attempting to shift the atmosphere.
""Not too busy," he replied, his tone flat and indifferent.
Jolie was speechless.
How could someone be so adept at killing a conversation?
