Joy Ward narrowed her eyes, clearly not expecting Beau Harrison to suddenly bring this up.
Beau Harrison wasn't a fool; he knew that Joy Ward needed his help, and he certainly wanted to seize this opportunity. After all, Joy Ward had been rejecting him all along, and he hoped that by helping her this time, he could bring their relationship a step closer.
Little did he know that Joy Ward didn't even give him a second glance.
Joy Ward forced a smile, suppressing her disgust, "Doctor Harrison, I really don't have the mindset to consider these things right now. I have a pile of issues weighing on me, and I'm truly exhausted. Can we talk about this after things have settled down?"
Her implication was clear: first, see to my matters, then we can discuss this.
Seeing Joy Ward's demeanor, Beau Harrison's eyes darkened. Every time she had an excuse to fend him off, yet seeing her delicate and seemingly fragile face, he found it impossible to argue and could only compromise and agree.
