Chapter 346 Doubts Dispelled

Joyce's eyes were locked on a spot just to the right of Ryan's navel.

She remembered Sebastian had a scar there from a gunshot wound in Africa.

But after staring for what felt like forever, she couldn't find it.

All she could see were Ryan's chiseled abs and smooth skin.

Joyce was thrown off for a moment.

Had she been wrong?

Just then, Ryan's laughter broke her thoughts, "Ms. Blackwood, did you spill coffee on my shirt just to get a peek at my abs? You don't have to be so sneaky, you know. Just tell me." With that, he unbuttoned his shirt completely, showing off his perfectly toned chest and abs.

Joyce's cheeks flushed red, and her voice got a bit raspy.

"Sorry, I slipped. I'll get you a new one."

She grabbed the phone on the table and called her assistant.

"Go to the nearest mall and buy a white shirt, size XL."

After hanging up, she noticed Ryan looking at her with a playful glint in his eyes.

"Can I take this as a Valentine's Day gift from you?"

Joyce kept her cool, "It's my fault, and I should compensate you with a new one. If you want to see it as a gift, that's on you."

Ryan laughed as he rebuttoned his shirt, his voice full of amusement.

"Dating a top lawyer means I get free legal lessons every day. By the time we get married, I might be able to argue a case in court." "That day will never come," Joyce said firmly.

"How can you be so sure? Joyce, never say never. Anything can happen."

Ryan's lips curled into a teasing smile, but there was a deep emotion in his eyes.

His heart ached with a dull pain.

He owed Joyce a happy marriage, and no matter the cost, he had to make it up to her.

Joyce didn't want to continue the conversation and shifted back to discussing the case.
