Chapter 272

Walter's voice, usually so cold and proud, was unexpectedly gentle, which softened Shakira's heart. Slowly, she lifted a corner of the blanket, peeking out. She lay by the window. The bright moonlight cast its glow on her beautiful eyes, making them sparkle. She asked, "Is it clear now?"

Walter replied, "Yeah." It was just one soft word, but Shakira couldn't see his face softened with affection. He said uncontrollably, "I miss you."

After a pause, he added, "Don't you miss me?"

Shakira was speechless, thinking, "That is a good question.

Sensing the intense gaze through the screen, Shakira quickly replied, "Of course, I miss you." Imitating his tone, she said, "Why don't you move your hand and let me see you?"

Walter's lips curled up as he let his fingers slip away.

In the warm glow of the lamp, he was dressed in pajamas, leaning against the headboard, staring intently at her. His eyes were so deep, which made Shakira's cheeks blush slightly. "I've only been away for a day."

"And another day," Walter pointed out in a slightly complaining tone.

"Ahem! Alright, I'll be back the day after tomorrow."

Walter nodded, noticing the big floral quilt covering her, and couldn't help but frown. "It's chilly over there. Are you cold?"

"I'm okay. It's warm inside, but they said it might snow tomorrow."

"Wear more clothes."

She thought, 'What a silly guy!'

Suddenly inspired, she beckoned to Walter. "Come a little closer
