Chapter 1309 - 1035: What do I have to be afraid of?

Chapter 1309: Chapter 1035: What do I have to be afraid of?

His suit pants were wrinkled as well.

It had been less than half a month since she last saw him.

But he looked at least five years older.

If Joanna Lawrence hadn’t known him for many years, she probably wouldn’t have recognized David Benington.

After all, the David she previously knew had always been gentle and refined like jade.

"Joanna, do you really not want to see me that much?" Seeing her attempt to close the door, David’s face darkened, his eyes cold and gloomy.

With an evil expression between his eyebrows, he asked, "Am I a plague to you?"

Joanna noticed David’s mood and stared at him warily. "How did you know I’m here? What are you doing here?"

"What am I doing here?" David stared at her for a moment, his eyes filled with deep shadows, and then suddenly laughed. "Joanna, if I say I missed you, that I very much miss you, and I just wanted to see you, would you believe me?"

David’s gaze lingered greedily on her delicate and ethereal face, his heart itching uncontrollably.

Joanna was the first woman to ever make his heart race.

And she was also his first girlfriend.

He still remembered the first time he saw her; she was only eight or nine years old.

Though already beautiful and charming at that age.

At the time, he thought she was much prettier than the other girls around him.

When comparing the most beautiful girl in their class to her, the gap was as clear as the difference between an ordinary beauty and a fairy.

Back then, he secretly wished to marry her once he grew up.

As time went on, she grew up slowly but surely.

And her beauty became more and more stunning, more and more bewitching.

Naturally, more and more people began to like her.

Among those who liked her was also him.

Later, he was lucky enough to become her boyfriend. At first, he really cherished her.

Of course, when a man loves a woman, he wants to possess her.

He tried to do so, but she rejected him every time.

Although he understood and appreciated her self-esteem and self-love, the constant rejections inevitably dampened his spirits.

So when Annie Lawrence threw herself at him, he couldn’t refuse.

Later, Joanna discovered his relationship with Annie, and they broke up.

For David, the biggest regret was that he never once possessed her.

Even if it were only once, he would be satisfied.

Although she might not be pure anymore, he still wanted her.

As David thought of this, his eyes narrowed, and his gaze on Joanna changed gradually.

Upon hearing his shameless words, Joanna’s face darkened immediately, and she scolded him angrily. "David, have you forgotten the lesson you learned before? Don’t you dare speak these shameless words, or I’ll make you regret it."

"I don’t care what you are here for, but you have to leave now. Otherwise..."

"Otherwise, what?" David scoffed, seeming not to take her words seriously. Instead of leaving, he took a step closer.

His eyes never left her, staring at Joanna with a mix of greed and reluctance. "Joanna, do you think I still care about all this? I’ve lost everything; there’s nothing left for me to fear."
