Chapter 362 A Peaceful Moment

"Did you even listen to what I was saying?"

Kallum reached out, gently turning her face toward him. At that moment, Calista finally fully opened her eyes.

Calista wasn't wrong about one thing. Her eyes were indeed beautiful. He had praised them countless times before. Whenever she focused her gaze on someone, it was bound to make their heart skip a beat. That was why his next words got stuck in his throat. It had been a long time since she had looked at him with such focus.

"I... was talking to you!"

Despite the evident passion in his words, there was an inexplicable softening in Kallum's voice. His hand, which was touching her face, did not withdraw. Instead, he traced her features tenderly as if reluctant to let go. ""I'm really tired."

Calista's voice was soft. "Unless it's something important, please refrain from speaking."

Kallum's actions paused, his expression turning somber.

"Then tell me... What really matters?"

"For instance, less idle chatter would be appreciated."

Kallum's gaze suddenly ignited with fire. "Calista! Do you really think..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Calista had already moved downwards, resting on his lap. "Let me sleep a bit more."

Her sudden closeness caught Kallum off guard, leaving him secretly delighted. That tiny spark of hope was instantly extinguished.

Due to the rapid change, his expression seemed a bit silly, but he dared not move from his position, fearing that Calista might be uncomfortable in her sleep. He then sat up and closed his eyes to rest. His hand... finally came to rest gently on her shoulder.

The palpable tension filled the entire carriage, so intense that one could hear a pin drop.
