Amongst the Stars, Out in the Ocean, There's You

Chapter 8: Chapter 8: Do You Want Me to Let Go?



Keira Leaf's heart tightened, had he discovered that she had taken his photo?

"I don't understand what Young Master Sulliven is talking about?"

With cat's eye gems covered in a thin layer of mist, Keira Leaf gently bit her lips, looking at Joshua Sulliven.

Looking into those clear eyes, Joshua couldn't help but laugh sarcastically.

"Your acting skills are really good!"

If it wasn't because he had seen the surveillance camera himself, he might have thought at this moment that he had made a mistake.

"What exactly does Young Master Sulliven want to say?"

Joshua Sulliven's patience was wearing thin. How bold this woman was, not only did she dare to secretly take his photos, but now even tried to deceive him like a fool. Good, very good!

The man fiercely pulled open the European-style curtains that blocked the light, angrily pressing a button on the wall. The huge floor-to-ceiling window slowly opened, allowing the wind outside to rush in, causing the curtains to fly wildly around the room.

Keira Leaf's hair stuck to her face, and the cold wind made her shiver, but it couldn't compare to her increasingly trembling heart.

Before Keira Leaf could react, her feet left the floor as she was lifted up and dragged to the window side.

The howling wind hit her cheeks, and the high-altitude chill awoke Keira Leaf. She tightly gripped Joshua's wrist with one hand, her neatly trimmed nails digging into his flesh due to fear.

"Joshua... you're insane!"

Looking down at the 28-floor height, her face turned pale, realizing that if she fell from here, she would definitely turn into a puddle of mud!

"Are you scared?"

Watching Keira Leaf, who was pushed halfway out of the window, Joshua coldly laughed at the window side.

Keira Leaf pressed her lips together, wanting to say she wasn't scared...

But she couldn't bring herself to say those two words, despite the entire 28 floors between her and the ground... she could only cry out weakly, "Young Master Sulliven, I'm afraid..."

"Do you want me to let go?" Joshua still smiled.

"No!" Keira Leaf answered instinctively, gripping even harder.

Frowning, Joshua looked at his wounded wrist, "Isn't it too late to be scared now?"

Thinking of the photos in her mobile phone, Keira Leaf suddenly found some courage, squeezing a miserable smile on her crumpled little face.

"What are you laughing at?"

Joshua's face darkened as he watched her beautiful and trembling cheeks form a smile in the air.

"Does Young Master Sulliven really want to be so ruthless?"

Joshua Sulliven pressed his lips together and was silent.

"If I die, then tomorrow, Young Master Sulliven's bath photos will surely spread across the country!" Keira Leaf's eyes showed a hint of madness.

Yes, if she died!

She would definitely ruin Joshua Sulliven's reputation!

Blue veins popped on Joshua's arm, as he suppressed the urge to throw her out of the window, saying lowly, "Are you threatening me?"

"How dare I threaten Young Master Sulliven? I just hope that Young Master Sulliven can give me a chance." Keira Leaf flattered softly, as tiny beads of sweat emerged on the tip of her nose.

Watching her clearly pale little face, daring to bargain with him, Joshua coldly laughed, pulling her back and tossing her on the ground.

Keira Leaf panted heavily, looking at the empty ground near her feet, her body was drenched in cold sweat, trembling lightly.

But she knew, she had won the gamble...

"Keira Leaf, I might not kill you, but do you believe that I can come up with ten thousand ways to make your life worse than death?" Joshua Sulliven casually played with Keira Leaf's soft hair strands, for the first time remembering this woman's name!
