Chương 330: Afternoon Walk (2)

Only after 5 minutes did she finally calm down enough to remove herself from Ken's embrace.

The moment she took a step back, her face flushed red with embarrassment. Ai hadn't expected for this to happen, nor had she planned for it.

"I'm sorry, I—"

"There's no need to apologize." Ken said, cutting her off.

His face wore a supportive smile, one that filled her with reassurance. There was no judgment, nor expectations within his gaze, just pure and unadulterated support.

"Come, let's keep walking."

"Ah"

Ken grabbed her hand once more and pulled her along gently until she was beside him. It was unexpected, yet she didn't resist, feeling a genuine smile creep onto her features.

He wasn't sure what had made him so bold, but there was a part of him that thought he might not get a chance like this again in the future.
