Nine, who was outside, also saw that Joshua's mission had been completed. He almost immediately frowned, his gaze shooting toward Henry—who was quietly straightening the blankets on one side—like a speeding bullet.
Henry felt that stare and looked back, his expression unreadable. His eyes were as cold as always, though undeniably upright and distant.
Upright? Nine almost wanted to laugh. Henry had kissed Joshua, yet no one here even knew when he managed to do it.
Truly ridiculous…
With only the two of them left in the room, Nine spoke directly, "Put those thoughts of yours away. Joshua needs to focus on building his career."
Henry met Nine's gaze without emotion. "I think you're the one who should restrain yourself. Besides, Joshua and I have belonged to each other for a very long time."
It was like an arrow shot straight into his chest. Nine's stare toward Henry darkened sharply.
"If we are one soul, then one day I will devour you."
