Kiss Me if You Can

For a while, the two of them just looked at each other without saying anything. To be exact, Chase was glaring at Josh, and Josh was looking at him in embarrassment.

It was hard to endure the silence. Especially in this situation.

Josh was dying because the same situation was repeated again after the reception room, but the silence from before was nothing compared to now. The person shaking with betrayal in front of him was different from his colleagues. Josh thought Chase’s anger was very reasonable. Therefore, for now, he was going to listen to whatever he did to vent his anger. Even if he hit him.@@novelbin@@

Surely he wouldn’t kill him.

Josh, who had thought that far, frowned. Surely not.

“You.”

Chase finally opened his mouth. Josh waited silently for the next words.

“Bring the medicine here.”

Still without saying anything, he took the medicine bottle as Chase asked and handed it over. Chase, who had snatched it away, slowly read the words written on the bottle, engraving them one by one in his eyes. Of course, that wouldn’t change the content at all.

Chase finally raised his head after reading all the words. His face still showed his disbelief.

“… … Really?”

Chase barely managed to open his mouth. Josh felt the urge to deny it and reassure him at his shaky voice. But of course, that was something he shouldn’t do.

Josh held back his desire and nodded. Chase bit his lower lip hard and soon let out a trembling sigh. Josh felt sorry for him as he tried to hold back his emotions.

But that was only before Chase threw away the bottle he was holding.

“Oh!”

That was something Josh had never expected. With a short exclamation, the vial flew past the veranda and into the air, disappearing somewhere in the garden. Josh was surprised and couldn't continue speaking, just opening his mouth.

"... ... What are you doing?"
