What Separates Me and You

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.”

The frown on Josephine’s face relaxed slowly upon hearing the man’s reply. A glimmer of joy flickered in her teary eyes, rekindling a spark of hope within her.

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

As the vibrant fireworks painted the sky with bursts of color, their shadows danced on the windowpane, flickering and intertwining with each dazzling explosion.

Lewis reached out and picked up the watch on the nightstand, glancing at the dial to check the time. It was already 11.30 pm.

“I’ll be fine. Come here.” Lewis grabbed her hand gently. He was unable to exert any strength since he had just undergone the operation.

The

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!”
