?Chapter 475:


    Dn pressed his lips together, looking down at her with affection as she slept. He thought about saying something but ultimately stayed silent, not wanting to risk disturbing her peaceful rest.


    The moment the elevator arrived, Dn gently pulled his gaze away and pushed down the flutter of emotion, still letting her rest securely in his hold.


    Carrying her inside, Dn nced at her, who nuzzled against him from time to time, and he couldn’t hide the tender smile on his lips. That easy smile softened his whole appearance, giving him a rare warmth and a distinct charm. He looked down at Christina, sleeping soundly in his arms, and a sudden thought shed across his mind. Without thinking, he leaned down just a little closer.


    All of a sudden, Christina’s eyes fluttered open and she met Dn’s gaze.


    A jolt of panic hit Dn, leaving him feeling as though he’d been caught red-handed. He really only meant to nudge noses with her, nothing more, but meeting her wide-awake stare filled him with a strange guilt.


    Their faces were so close, just a breath apart, and each could feel the other’s gentle exhale.


    Dn fumbled for words, breaking the quiet. “You…”


    Before he could get another word out, Christina’s eyes slipped closed again, and she tucked herself even closer to him. She seemed only half-awake, dazed and unaware of her surroundings, much like someone who stirred just enough to roll over before drifting back to sleep.


    Dn called out her name, his voice hushed and soothing, “Christina.” He tried calling her several times but received no response. That told him all he needed. She had already slipped back into a deep sleep, totally unaware of their near encounter.


    A slow breath left him as the tension finally melted away. Even so, his heart still raced on, thudding in his chest with an energy he couldn’t quite calm.


    Dn let his eyes linger on Christina’s peaceful face, feeling a gentle fascination sweep through him. A faint, almost secret smile curved his lips as he watched her.


    By morning, inside the hospital room, Christina’s longshes flickered before she blinked herself awake.

    The very first thing she saw was Dn’s striking face, every feature sharp and cool, the kind of handsomeness that left nothing to criticize. They locked eyes, silent for a moment.


    rity came over Christina as the memories ofst night slowly returned. She remembered falling asleep in the car, sinking deeply into rest.


    Thinking back, she recalled waking up partway through the night, Dn’s face right in front of hers. At that time, she’d chalked it up to a dream. But now, she realized their faces had actually been that close, and he had been holding her in his arms.


    A flurry of thoughts rushed through her mind. Did she do something strange in her sleep? Had she leaned in on her own?


    With a bit of hesitation, Christina quietly asked, “I hope I didn’t embarrass myselfst night?”


    All she could recall was how close their faces had been, but she couldn’t tell who had moved first.


    “No,” Dn responded, meeting her gaze steadily. “I need your help with my bandages.”


    That answer made Christina freeze for a moment, and then she remembered he had carried her back to the hospital the night before. She sat up without dy. “Sure,” she responded quickly.
