"How much?" He pressed against her forehead, his breath falling on her cheek, rubbing affectionately, his deep voice filled with unabashed joy. "Hmm? Tell me, how much do you like me?"
Even if her affection for him were only half, it would be enough.
The remaining half, he could exchange with her for the rest of his life.
Joanna couldn't help but laugh, "I like you a lot, is that enough?"
"Mhm, good." Ashton Heath's lips curved up slightly, his eyebrows raising. "But I'm greedy. I want even more of your love. Baby, can you try to like me even more?"
"Even more love?"
"Yes, call me greedy."
Before she had confessed her feelings to him, he thought even a little bit of her affection was enough.
But now, he didn't think it was enough.
He wanted more...
He wanted to be the only one in her eyes.
He wanted to be the one she chose resolutely.
"But I might be a slow burn. I won't fall for anyone too quickly," she said.
"That's fine." Ashton Heath touched his lips. "I can wait."
