Joshua gently pushed open the door and quickly scanned every corner of the room, finally focusing on the figure lying on the bed.
Veronica was lying there, her hands pillowed behind her head, staring blankly at the ceiling with a hint of boredom in her eyes.
He walked over to the bedside, sat down next to Veronica, and lightly reached out to touch her forehead.
Feeling that her temperature was normal, he let out a small sigh of relief. With a smile, he said, "Bored, huh?"
Veronica nodded, a touch of helplessness flickering in her eyes. She had been confined to bed for days, unable to go out or do much of anything, and she was bound to get bored.
He comforted her. "Just bear with it a little longer. Getting better is the most important thing. Ms. Fraser came to see you today."
Veronica's eyes lit up instantly. "So can I go out today?" Her eyes sparkled with a mix of longing and anticipation. Staying cooped up in the house was driving her stir-crazy, and she craved some fresh air and the hustle and bustle of the outside world.
She looked at Joshua, hoping for a favorable answer. Joshua couldn't help but find her eagerness amusing and decided to tease her.
He deliberately slowed his speech, pretending to think deeply without saying a word for a while. A mischievous glint flickered in his eyes as if he was relishing Veronica's expectant expression.
Veronica, seeing Joshua's deliberately hesitant demeanor, felt a wave of nervousness. She was worried that he might refuse her request, but she didn't want to give up the chance.
She asked anxiously, "Joshua, what's the matter? Is there a problem?"
'I just want to go out for a walk. It's not a big deal. I'm not planning to leave the Holland residence. It should be fine, right?' she thought to herself.
Joshua, seeing Veronica's nervous and expectant face, couldn't hold back a chuckle. He cleared his throat and put on a serious expression. "Oh well, you can, but—"
Veronica couldn't wait and pressed him. "But what? Tell me already."
Seeing that Veronica had actually taken the bait, Joshua smiled and said, "You have to promise me one condition before I let you go."
Hearing about a condition, Veronica felt a bit puzzled but was still curious. "What condition? Go ahead."
Joshua looked at Veronica, his amber eyes gleaming with a mysterious light. He teased her, "Any condition at all?"
Veronica was taken aback by his sudden question, but quickly recovered. She tilted her chin up slightly, her eyes shining with determination and defiance. "Yes."
A triumphant smile tugged at the corner of Joshua's lips. He slowly leaned closer to Veronica until their faces were almost touching. In a low voice, he said, "Then kiss me."
Veronica's cheeks instantly flushed with a rosy hue. She felt her heart racing as if it would burst out of her chest. Looking into Joshua's face, so close to hers, she saw that the depths of his eyes seemed to hold an irresistible allure.
Neither of them spoke. Their gazes locked, as if a thousand words were being exchanged in silence. Veronica gently closed her eyes, tilted her head back slightly, and brought her lips closer to Joshua's.
Feeling her approach, Joshua slowly lowered his head and gently pressed his lips to hers. The kiss was tender and full of emotion, as if all the words they could have spoken had melted into a silent understanding.
Veronica felt the softness and warmth of Joshua's lips. Her heartbeat seemed to synchronize with his, and for a moment, they felt as if they were one.
After the kiss, Joshua gently pulled Veronica into his embrace, their heartbeats echoing in each other's ears.
