What Separates Me and You

Chapter 291 Stay in This Moment

Lewis paused and lifted his head to meet Josephine’s gaze.

Josephine’s face was flushed, and her eyes revealed a mixture of panic and pleading.

Lewis remained silent for a moment as he tidied her sweater.

He leaned close to Josephine’s face and kissed her lips again before saying hoarsely, “Shall we go back?”

Josephine’s legs felt weak, and she could barely stand. She had to hold on to the wall for support. Her sparkling eyes were flickering under the lights.

Lewis raised his finger and wiped the corner of her eye, his heavy breath landing on her face. It was burning.

Josephine nodded. She no longer had the mood to continue strolling around.

This man could get turned on anywhere.

After a while inside the booth, Lewis led her out and found a store employee to print the photo booth pictures they had taken.

As the store employee printed the photos, they glanced oddly at the picture of them kissing in the background.

Seeing how they could kiss anytime and anywhere, the employee thought Josephine and Lewis must be a newly-in-love couple. Most couples who dated for over a year wouldn’t do such things.

The store employee handed the photos to Lewis, who tucked them into his pocket. He then took Josephine’s hand and walked out.

Perhaps the cool breeze outside had calmed them down a bit. Lewis wasn’t in a hurry to go back. Instead, he took her for a walk by the seaside.

As they walked on the soft sandy beach, Josephine looked at the bustling crowd around her, her expression distant.

The liveliness of a place didn’t depend on the number of people but on who you were with.

Josephine looked at Lewis. Although everything around them was unfamiliar, she didn’t feel

lonely.

After walking a little further, they noticed a large crowd gathered in a certain area, seemingly

for some event.

Lewis pulled her over to take a look. It turned out that someone was setting off fireworks, and the beach was filled with fireworks ready to be launched.
