Chapter 403
Their presence at the cafe had been so influential that, despite being guarded by bodyguards, there were bound to be paparazzi lurking, eager for an exclusive scoop.
Would the news of her and Walter arriving at the company together not spread like wildfire, giving her the perfect chance to make a splash?
Walter’s gaze was deep and unreadable as he looked at Minnie, his face a mask hiding a whirlwind of thoughts.
Then, out of the blue…
“Minnie, why… Why are you so kind to me?”
Minnie’s cheeks flushed with a sudden warmth. “Walter, isn’t it obvious by now?” she asked, her voice a mix of exasperation and hope.
She was sure Walter was just playing dumb. He must have known her intentions ever since she started getting close to him.
Walter, with his straightforward nature, confronted the question that had been nagging at him, “We haven’t known each other long, and we’ve barely hung out.”
“Trust me, the first time I saw you, your charm had me totally hooked.” Minnie cut off Walter’s words, her eyes sparkling with infatuation.
Both Julia and Minnie could not help but fall for the guy in front of them.
“I can’t believe it…”
Walter’s smile was forced, his face a mix of emotions.
If Minnie had paid close attention, she would have seen that among all those feelings, joy at being confessed to was conspicuously absent. However, she was too caught up in her own world, completely
dazzled by Walter.
Walter’s gaze was enigmatic as he gave a small, secretive smirk.
“Alright, then make sure you love me well.” Time was running out.
He reached out and casually pulled Minnie into a loose embrace.
Minnie was over the moon, her face snuggled tightly against his chest.
She was aware that Walter hardly ever showed his feelings. Thus, for him to say something like that to her was as good as a declaration!
She had, at long last, won back the heart of the man she adored after giving it her all!
What Minnie did not realize was that just above her head, Walter’s face was devoid of any joy of being with his beloved. The slight smile on his face turned dark and ominous as soon as she could not see it.
