The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 192

This wasn't their first kiss, nor was it the first time Walter kissed her when they were clear-headed. But Shakira was certain she'd never felt her senses heightened to such an extent. Almost all her attention focused on the moment Walter's lips touched hers, absorbed in him and the space where they connected.

Her lips felt soft and hot, trembling slightly. Walter kissed her awkwardly, cautiously but unable to hold back his intensity.

His large hand moved from the back of her head down her neck, finally resting firmly on her shoulder blade, encircling her with a possessiveness that words couldn't convey. Shakira felt dizzy, and when her mind started to clear, Walter had already let her go. She was slumped against Walter's chest, gasping for air like a fish almost out of water.

Walter noticed her flushed face and distant look, assuming she was just out of breath.

He couldn't help but frown. "Don't know how to breathe properly?"

Shakira sensed the disdain in Walter's voice and muttered sulkily. "How would I know?"

Walter thought for a moment and nodded as if it made perfect sense. "Right, you're lacking practice. Kiss more and you'll improye."

Shakira was speechless.

It sounded like Walter was considering her well-being, but somehow, it just didn't feel right.

Walter felt a bit attached, his large hand squeezing and releasing Shakira's shoulder several times. Eventually, he slowly withdrew his hand but couldn't resist giving Shakira's rosy cheek a gentle pinch.

"I might get back late tonight. If you feel sleepy, just go to bed early," said Walter.

Shakira mumbled. "Got it.",

Seeing Shakira's obedient yet slightly puzzled look, Walter's gaze gradually deepened.

He took a deep breath to calm down, fighting the urge to pull Shakira into his arms and kiss her again, before finally leaving the room. He wasn't in a rush; there was plenty of time.

After Walter left, Shakira continued packing her suitcase. Her hands were busy, but her mind was wandering off somewhere unknown.

She had never thought about relationships before, but when it came to Walter, common sense seemed to fail, and many things were beyond her control.

After dinner, Shakira sat in her room and played PUBG with Cathy. Cathy had recently become fascinated with PUBG, but she wasn't very good at these kinds of games yet. Her moves were robotic, and she'd often get frustrated and start yelling. Tonight, she decided to make up for past losses and called in Shakira, Sean, and Gideon for a four-player game, hoping to rely on them.

However, with three strong teammates, she still ended up being the first one out and could only watch in spectator mode as the trio dominated the match.
