The sports car was speeding extremely fast. At one turn, due to the force of inertia, she leaned to the side, and collapsed into Joseph's arms.
As soon as the car stabilized, she tried to sit upright quickly, but he had already taken the chance to wrap his arm around her waist.
Jaylene gathered a bit of strength and pulled away swiftly during a jolt of the car, freeing herself from Joseph's grasp.
Joseph sensed her rejection at the moment and didn't try to approach her further, instead, he released his large hand from her waist.
Jaylene waited until the car was perfectly steady and no longer shaking before asking, "Why did you do that just now?"
"I owe you a formal proposal," Joseph answered out of the blue.
Seeing her widen her eyes, he chuckled again: "Aren't I right?"
Jaylene looked away, towards the window. As she raised her hand, she saw the plain ring on her ring finger.
