Chapter 331 Give It to Me

Lewis didn’t say anything for a long time.

The light in Josephine’s eyes slowly dimmed down. Soon, a hurt expression appeared on her

face.

She went silent for a moment before lowering her hand sadly.

Lewis suddenly lifted her head, his hand caressing her cheek. “You’re right.”

The young woman looked surprised for a moment before staring at him happily.

He was still leaning against the headboard while looking weak. His form seemed to blend into the white wall behind him, but it brought out the color in his eyes.

The slightest trace of a smile was curled on his lips. “You’re right. I like you the most.”

She firmly grasped, nestling even closer and burying her face in the warmth of his palm.

young woman hesitated for a moment before getting up to her feet and sitting down right

next to him.

“Take off your shoes and lie down.”

Josephine kicked her shoes off, flipped the covers away, and sat beside Lewis.

She then turned around to stare at him.

The man rested a hand on her head. “Go to sleep.”

She gestured, “No way! I need to watch over you!”

Josephine scolded herself for accidentally falling asleep earlier. She did promise Conrad that
