Joanne was stunned like a fool.

They were talking about Iris living alone. How did Brian understand it as that she wanted to live in the same room with him? It sounded like she had coveted him for a long time.

She didn't have such an idea at all!

She just thought that Iris was getting older and older, and living alone was really lonely!

A faint smile was on Brian's face, and he said, "If we come up with it to mom, she may be happy to move over and live with us for a while."

Joanne pushed him. "Well, let Mom live here... Hey, don't think too much. I don't really want to live in the same room with you!"

Brian raised his eyebrows and apparently did not believe it.

Joanne blushed and said, "I'm not going to talk to you about this."

She ran back to the living room with her head down.

Brian looked at her slender back, and the smile on his lips was full of fun.

Didn't she want to?

But it seemed that it wasn't under her control.

Joanne rushed back to the living room and happened to meet Iris coming out of the kitchen with steamed fish with red wine. When she thought of that her cuddle with Brian was completely seen by Iris, her face was redder and her head was lower.

"Joanne, what happened to you?" Iris asked.

"Nothing. I want to go to the bathroom."

After saying that, Joanne ran away like a puff of smoke when Brian just came in. Iris blamed him. "Don't tease Joanne, look at her blushing and bloody face."

Brian took the steamed fish with red wine from Iris's hands and smiled. "Mom, she is just too shy."

"You know she's shy, and you still tease her."

Iris shook her head with a smile and lamented that it was really hard to understand the young man and walked into the kitchen.

Brian found Joanne, who was washing her face with cold water in the bathroom, but cold water could not take away the glamorous blush on her face.

When Joanne looked up, she saw Brian from the mirror and regretted how she forgot to close the door. When she reached out and wanted to close the door, Brian gently blocked it with his hands and said, "Come out for dinner."

He handed a towel to her.

Joanne took the towel. "You go first, I need to wash my face."

Brian pulled her out, holding her cheek to look at, and said, "Your face is very clean."

At this time, Iris walked out from the kitchen with soup and obviously saw their intimate action, smiling slightly. Joanne just felt that her cheeks continued to heat up and hit Brian's hand down her cheeks. Brian took her by the hand and led her to the living room.

Iris pretended not to see anything. "Okay, eat quickly."

After dinner, Iris found it still early and wanted to keep Joanne and Brian longer. Joanne obviously was very glad, but Brian said, "Mom, we will come again tomorrow. Today, I'm going to take Joanne to try her dress."

"The dress for the anniversary celebration?" Iris changed her mind in a second and pushed Joanne to go quickly. "Joanne, go quickly to try your dress and don't be shy to bother others. If you feel dissatisfied, ask them to change it until it fits you the most and looks beautiful. You are the hostess on the anniversary celebration. We can't lose to any guests, even to those so-called international models and actresses."

"Ok!" Joanne nodded affirmatively. "Mom, I'm sure I won't lose to them!"

The office of the clothing brand in Arlington was located in a quiet and exotic street. The elegant red brick building looked more like the home of a well-off family.

When Joanne got out of the car, the two girls who went her home to measure her size the other day came out immediately. "Mr. Lambert, Mrs. Lambert, please come in."

The atmosphere in the room made it more like an art exhibition hall rather than an office. The place looked elegant and warm with a trace of pride and elegance. Thinking that the dress was made in such a place, Joanne could not bear to be too picky with them.

The two girls came out with a white dress. The design draft Joanne saw that morning had become a real dress.

"Mrs. Lambert, it's done by a dozen of our staff with double effort. You can try it to see if there is anything you're not satisfied with, and then we can help you modify it." One girl handed the dress to Su Janan. "Do we need to help you put on it?"

"No, I'll do it myself." Joanne took the clothes. "Where is the fitting room?"

The girl motioned Joanne to follow her. Joanne handed Brian her bag and went into the fitting room.

It was a full-length dress with its back part at floor-length. The seemingly simple design was complicated in fact, in fact. Joanne had some troubles before she could put the dress on in the fitting room, and when she looked at herself in the mirror, she had a strange and familiar feeling which made her stunned.

It was true that one's wonderful appearance partly depended on their natural look and partly on their dress.

She wiped her lips and went out. Brian sat on the sofa outside with his legs crossed. She asked him nervously, "How do you like it?"

Brian paused for a second before he said, "It looks good."

Behind her was a mirror. Joanne looked at it and smiled after a while.

Brian stood up and tidied her hair, which was messy after she put on her dress. "Is there anything that doesn't fit you or you don't like?"

"There's nothing I don't like. No need to change it." She said and was a little confused. "Does it fit me?"

"You can't tell by yourself?"

Joanne coughed. "I don't buy clothes very often."

"I'll help you check it."

Joanne hadn't responded yet and was pushed into the fitting room by Brian.

She blinked her eyes. She just wanted to see if the dress fitted her. Why Brian pushed her into the fitting room?

Brian behaved quite professional, starting to check the skirt. As he looked upward, her eyes finally fell on her waist.

It was until then that Joanne felt something inappropriate. Brian helping her check whether her dress fitted her in a closed fitting room, why did it sound... so evil?

"Brian, you..."

She wanted to ask Brian to go out, but before she could finish her words, his hand held her waist. "Will it be tight here?"

His move was gentle and not too ambiguous, but Joanne just felt as if something had been stuck to her waist. She wanted to avoid his touch, but she was frozen and couldn't speak clearly.

"I, I..."

Brian looked at her calmly. "I asked you if it was tight here. What did you stutter about?"

Joanne swallowed hard. "Not tight, and it's fine."

"Very good." Brian's low voice seemed magical. "Raise your arm and let me take a look."

"..."

"Joanne?"

Joanne's body was still stiff, and her brain seemed to be full of Brian's low voice. She almost cried. "How can I lift them?"

Brian couldn't help laughing, grabbing her wrist and lifting her hands. "Is there anything tight or uncomfortable?"

"No." Joanne shook her head and couldn't help retreating. "Brian, you... please stay further from me, I... can't think."

Brian had thought of letting her go.

But now, he suddenly did not want to let her go.

He deliberately approached her, and in his deep eyes revealed an evil charm. "Why can't you think when I'm near you? Uh huh?"

Joanne gritted her teeth and said, "If I knew why, would I still not be able to think...?"

In order to avoid Brian's extremely threatening breath, Joanne retreated but did not expect that she had no way out. She was forced to back against the wall of the fitting room.

Brian held her hands high and confined them to the wall above her head. He came closer to her and said, "What about this? Can you think now?"

He definitely did it on purpose. Joanne could feel not only his heartbeat but also the heat of his skin on her skin. The spacious fitting room became narrow at the moment and the air became thin.

Her face slowly blushed, her chest jumped rapidly, and there was a timid expression on her beautiful little face. She was no longer the little monster whose teeth were bared and claws were outspread she used to be, and she was more like a lost rabbit crouching on the roadside and looking helplessly at the pedestrians.

Brian's deep eyes darkened, and his voice was extremely sexy. "Joanne, do you know that your current look makes people want to bully you very much."

She was confused as he had expected. Brian could no longer control himself. He lowered her head and kissed her lips.

They were in a fitting room, where other people worked. There were many people passing by outside the wall. They were...

"Hmm..."

Joanne was struggling. Brian pressed her hand. "Don't move. There are people outside. Do you want them to misunderstand us?"

"..."

Joanne admitted that she was frightened and then settled down, but wouldn't they be misunderstood if she did not move?

Before she could speak, Brian suddenly bit her lips lightly.

The bite of love and hate was ambiguous to the extreme, which seemed to carry an electric current that flowed from her lips to her back. She finally knew what the numb feeling was in others' words.

When she was stunned, Brian had tasted all her lips, and the tip of his tongue was between her teeth. She opened her mouth unconsciously and was kissed by him the next second.

Joanne wanted to make a groan unconsciously, but she remembered Brian's warning. Somehow, she had a feeling that they were doing something bad, and her cheeks were instantly red and bloody.

Brian let go of her hand, encircled her waist, and felt happy with her in his arms. He kissed her with more and more affections.

He never knew that there was a woman in the world who could almost drive him crazy in this respect.

"Joanne?"

He called her name, and his voice was as lingering as his kiss. Joanne was in a trance and had an illusion that the man who held her and kissed her seemed to... take her seriously.

If it was really like what she thought...

Joanne suddenly grasped his clothes hard.

If it was like what she had thought, no matter where it was, she was willing to accompany with Brian to be drowning in love.

At this moment, the sound of the zipper sliding sounded, and Joanne suddenly felt cool from one of her side...

Almost at the same time, there was a professional female voice outside the door. "Hello, Miss Rosalyn, your dress is ready. Would you like to try it on?"

Joanne suddenly woke up, grabbed Brian's hand which was going to zip her clothes. From the mirror, she saw them hug each other in an ambiguous posture. Her bright eyes were suddenly filled with panic and confusion, like the eyes of a deer that had been scared.
