What Separates Me and You

Chapter 305 Her Guardian Angel

Josephine looked down at her stomach. She wasn’t sure about the concept of pregnancy stages, so she decided to come up with an answer on the spot. “Five months.”

Lewis chuckled softly in response. “The belly of a five-month pregnancy isn’t this small.”

Even though he was laughing, Josephine couldn’t see any traces of mirth on his face save for the corners of his lips, which were curved upward.

She thought for a moment before correcting her answer. “Two months.”

“The belly has yet to grow if it’s a two-month pregnancy.”

The young woman gave up at that moment, resulting in her shoulders sagging in defeat. “I’m not going to become a mommy then,” she gestured.

This time, Lewis laughed in amusement. However, all he did was guffaw before letting out a sigh.

He stroked Josephine’s hair gently while saying, “Alright. Let’s go

home.”

The latter pretended to lose all strength in her body as she collapsed into Lewis’ arms. Then, she looked up at him coquettishly.

“I’m too tired to walk,” she gestured.

Obviously, the young woman wanted Lewis to carry her on his back.

He bowed his head to look at her for a moment, noticing the cunning glint in her eyes.

Other than that, her eyes were also filled with trust and sincerity toward him. She didn’t even put up her guard against him at all.

Lewis stared at Josephine for a long time, the intensity of his stare elongating time itself, creating an uncomfortable unease within her.

She kept feeling that the man acted peculiarly, but she couldn’t put her finger on it.

The young woman couldn’t understand what was going on. Lewis leaned in all of a sudden and left a kiss on her lips before she could piece her thoughts together.

Josephine widened her eyes in confusion while gazing at him.

As Lewis pressed a gentle kiss against her lips, he quickly moved away, only to embrace her tightly, encircling her with his arms.

The touch of his lips continued to tingle at the corner of Josephine’s mouth. He remained in that position, motionless, his eyes shut in silence.

“I want you to stop forgetting.”

The sentence came out as a murmur. Josephine couldn’t understand what he meant.

All she could do was stare at him unblinkingly. They were so close to each other that there was only a sliver of space between them. Their breaths mingled, brushing against each other’s
