He packed up the medicine box, glanced at me sideways, the corner of his lips slightly lifted, “You’ve
become smarter.”
I smirked, “At this point, you’re still teasing me?” I looked at him irritably and asked, “What do you plan
to do?”
He shook his head, “I don’t know. The other party’s target is me. They’ve set up so many things in a
row, all just to make me
uncomfortable. I’ll play along with their intentions. By the way, I also want to see what they will do
next.”
I pursed my lips, curiosity getting the better of me, “Who exactly is this
person? Not only can they manipulate things in prison, but they can also kill without leaving a trace. Do
they have a grudge against you and me?”
Walter settled into the armchair, his dark eyes narrowing slightly as if in thought. After a moment, he
said, “Perhaps, he just bears a grudge against me, and you… not necessarily ”
“Have you offended anyone?” Over the years, the Hinton family had been doing well in business. It
would be a lie to say they had no enemies. But this kind of enmity that could lead to murder and
framing others was not a minor one.
He shook his head, “The Hinton family has been around for a hundred years, blocking many people’s
paths. There are plenty who want to eradicate them, but it’s impossible to determine the target.”
It really was the case.
“Woo woo…” Suddenly, a cell phone rang in the room. Walter and I

Were both laken aback. It took me a few seconds to realize that it was my phone ringing.
The call connected, it was Daniel. Before I could speak, his voice came through from the other end,
“Tabatha, are you okay?”
I shook my head, then realized he couldn’t see me from there, and quickly said, “I’m fine, how did you
know?”
Walter was looking at me, making me feel a bit uncomfortable, when Daniel said over the phone, “I’m
downstairs at the Conner Group building, wanting to invite you for a meal, as I heard from your
colleagues.”
I smiled lightly, saying, “It’s okay, I’m fine. But I might not be able to have dinner with you, I have
something going on here. When I have time in the future, I’ll treat you.”
The voice paused for a few seconds before asking, “Will you not have time tomorrow either?”
I shook my head, laughing, “Tomorrow…” I paused mid-sentence, remembering that Alexander had
mentioned that tomorrow was Christmas, and it might snow in River City. Daniel, having grown up
abroad, might find this day special, which could be why he wanted to have dinner with friends.
After a pause, I said, “Let’s do this, wait until tomorrow. If I have time, I’ll call you in advance.”
“Good!” The voice on the other end was noticeably lighter. After hanging up the phone, Walter looked
at me, his dark eyes not moving at all.
I felt uncomfortable, put away my phone, and said, “Thank you for today, I’m going to leave now.”

ms ups,
speak, and stood up, saying, “I’ll walk you
out.”
Upon leaving the villa, I vaguely sensed that something was off with Walter’s mood, but I couldn’t figure
out why at the moment, and didn’t say much.
It wasn’t until the car stopped downstairs at the Conner’s place and I was about to get out, that Walter
suddenly called out to stop me.
“Tabatha!”
I hummed in response, looking at him, “What’s wrong?”
Walter’s complexion had been somewhat off for some time, I didn’t know when it started. Looking at
me, he asked, “Am I the same to you as Daniel?”
This statement truly left me dumbfounded. Looking at him, I asked in confusion, “What are you trying to
say?”
He spoke, his voice somewhat heavy, “I don’t know who you will ultimately choose, but could you give
me a little more time? I will try my best. If in the end it’s still not enough, then consider discarding me,
okay?”
I was completely stunned, my hands and feet numb for a moment. I opened my mouth, originally
having a lot to say, but in the end, I didn’t know what to say. I only managed to utter one word, “Okay!”
Hearing my words, his face seemed to lighten a bit, and he looked at me gently, saying, “Go home, be
careful.”
I watched him leave, standing frozen in place for a long time.

that love could make those who were once high and
mighty become cautious, timid, and inferior.
How could such a precious and elegant person like him describe himself in such a way?
He was always different from Daniel, he was the one who touched my
heart, the one I once wanted to spend my life with!
The next day.
As expected, River City experienced its first heavy snowfall of the year. Located in the south, River City
doesn’t see snow as early or as frequently as the north.
Often times, the four seasons of a year might have passed by with just a few dry and cold days, making
it hard to see any snow. Therefore, being able to see accumulated snow was considered a hard-earned
surprise.
When I woke up, I heard my mother’s laughter in the yard. I got up, pulled back the curtains, and saw a
world of falling white snow. My mother, wrapped in a thick black down jacket, was squatting on the
ground, shoveling snow with a small shovel and chatting with Alexander. She was happy, so she
laughed out loud after just a few
sentences.
Alexander had studied abroad in Prylea for several years and was indifferent to snow. Probably seeing
his mother happy, he just joined Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
in the fun.
Perhaps sensing someone was watching him, he looked up towards me. Seeing that I was awake, a
smile appeared on his handsome face, “If you’re awake, come down and help shovel the snow.”
