Chapter 332 Holding Hands at Midnight
“I really can’t drink.”
Julian smiled. “I’m just teasing you. I’m not hungry.”
Quinn breathed a sigh of relief.
Julian added, “I loved the gift you made me.”
He pulled a small gift box from his pocket. “This is for you in return.”
“What is it?”
“Open it and see.”
Quinn lifted the lid and found two items inside.
One was a diamond bracelet, which looked strangely familiar.
The other was a stunning sapphire brooch.
“Last time I gave this to you, you had Lucy give it back,” Julian said.
“It’s too expensive,” Quinn said. “I can’t take it.”

“Value isn’t about price. It’s about what it means,” Julian said. “What you made me is far more precious.”
“It’s not the same…”
“But to me, your gift is worth more,” Julian said. “If you won’t take it… is it because you haven’t accepted how I feel about you?”
“But…”
“Here’s the deal,” Julian said. “Keep it for now. If we end up together, it won’t feel so heavy, right? And if we don’t… you can always give it back. Deal?”
She couldn’t argue with him after he put it that way.
She nodded. “Okay… thank you.”
“Do you like it?”
“Yes.”
Fireworks burst loudly outside the window.
It was midnight.
Julian looked at her softly. “Happy Christmas, Quinn.”

As he spoke, he took her hand in his, lacing their fingers together.
At the stroke of midnight, their eyes met, and both saw deep affection in each other’s gaze.
Quinn smiled. “Happy Christmas.”
But she couldn’t stand the intensity of his stare for long and quickly looked away.
Julian had arrived late, and it was already past midnight-he couldn’t stay over.
Julian paused for a second, then said again, “I’m leaving now.”
“Okay.”
When Quinn didn’t move, Julian held out his arms with a playful sigh. “No hug?”
Quinn stared at the floor, hesitated for a few seconds, then reached out and wrapped her arms around his
slim waist.

She meant to let go right away.
But just as she tried to pull back, Julian pulled her closer.
He leaned down, buried his face in her hair, patted her back softly, and then finally let her go.
