Chapter 610 Can We Make Up?
Somehow, despite the distance between them, Cora could clearly see the gleam in his deep eyes.
His smile extended from his lips to his eyes, so captivating.
Cora quickly averted her gaze and pulled the curtains shut, saying, “I already told you I’m not your wife. Please leave.”
“I won’t leave if you don’t come down.” His voice came with a hint of amusement.
“Are you crazy? The autumn nights in Leucrest Town are much
colder than in New York!”
Especially in the deep night, the winds here were howling.
The swaying tree branches on the roadside could show the winds outside were anything but gentle.
What was more, he came here in such a hurry, only wearing thin
shirt and slacks.
Staying downstairs all night in this cold would surely make him sick!
But on the other side of the video call, Byron’s laughter became even more obvious. “Cora, are you worried about me?”

“I’m not. I just don’t want you to fall sick here and then blame it on me,” Cora replied.
“That’s a good idea. I’ll follow your advice! I’ll get sick, and you can come to take care of me…”
He chuckled as he spoke in a teasing tone, and his intentions were clear.
Frustrated, Cora hung up the video call.
Byron didn’t call back, and he didn’t come upstairs either.
Cora thought he had left, so she cautiously lifted a corner of the
curtains.
To her surprise, he was still there, smoking a cigarette, and his eyes were fixed on her direction.
Feeling anxious, she quickly positioned the curtains and lay down.
“It would be your own fault if you got sick from the cold, and you can’t blame anyone else,” she grumbled, trying to ignore the man downstairs.
However, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
In the end, she became restless and put on a coat, heading downstairs.
The freezing cold wind cut through, and Byron was still

smoking.
Despite the cold, this was the closest he had been to Cora in so
many years.
His heart felt noticeably warmer.
Just then, Cora appeared before him in her yellow sleep gown.
Taken aback, he quickly put out the cigarette before approaching her.
“Cora,” he said with a more pronounced smile, making his sharply defined face appear even more charming.
But Cora felt that the smile in his eyes was more of a mocking meaning to her, so she didn’t even bother looking at him.
“Hurry back, or…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Byron suddenly kissed her, making her unable to say a single word.
Cora was shocked, widening her beautiful eyes.
Byron tightly held onto her waist, and his eyes still carried a bright smile.
Cora struggled to break free, but he held her even tighter.
It felt like she was being deprived of her breath. Finally, he released her, gently caressing her cheek. “I miss you.”

His low and husky voice, filled with desire, spoke volumes about the intensity of his feelings.
“If you don’t leave now, I’ll call the police,” Cora said, afraid that she couldn’t resist the allure of his charm if they kept this up.
After making her statement, she turned around and walked back upstairs.
Unexpectedly, Byron followed her to the stairs.
Irritated, Cora asked, “What do you want?”
In the dim light, Byron’s smile was alluring as he replied, “There are many things I want to do, but for now, the most important thing is to ensure you get home safely before I leave.”
Cora sighed inwardly.
She didn’t find this man so good at teasing before!
But considering the conversation would never end if she continued retorting, Cora chose to remain silent.
As they reached the front door, Byron suddenly embraced her from behind.
“Cora, can we make up?”
