After warming Talia's hands with his breath, Quentin tucked them firmly into his palms and remained crouched in front of the wheelchair, light spilling over him in a golden glow.

Quentin looked up at Talia, his voice low. "Want to build a snowman?"

Talia nodded, her eyes full of anticipation. "Yes."

Quentin smiled. "Alright. I'll take you."

Quentin pushed the wheelchair around until he found a flowerbed where snow had accumulated thickly. After locking the wheels, he turned to Talia. "There'

"So what do you think now, Mr. Lane?"Quentin made no attempt to hide the blatant provocation in his gaze. Christian clenched his fist and stepped forward, ready to throw a punch.But Quentin stepped forward to meet him, looking Christian straight in the eye with a commanding presence. "Only weak men resort to violence. Have you already forgotten what you said to Talia? What you did to her?"Christian's hand hung in midair, never landing on Quentin.Quentin pressed forward. "Talia became like this because of your own actions, didn't she?"Christian fell silent.After a long moment, he turned to look at Talia. "Think this through carefully. If you decide to return, there's still room to salvage our relationship."Quentin moved to block Talia, using his body to shield her from

Through the car window, he immediately spotted Talia and Quentin by the roadside.Quentin crouched beside the wheelchair, holding Talia's hands and warming them with his breath. Every so often, he reached up to smooth her windblown hair.Christian's grip on the device tightened.Lionel hadn't realized the severity of the situation. When Christian didn't respond, he asked again, "Is that Mrs. Lane?"Christian didn't sound angry when he replied, "Yes."But before Lionel could ask anything else, Christian added abruptly, "Though she doesn't deserve that title anymore."The words carried clear dissatisfaction and a hint of anger. Yet, Christian's expression showed little emotion.Lionel assumed Christian wasn't upset. Without thinking, he said, "I've known Mrs. Lane a

    After taking the photo, Quentin immediately put away his phone, giving Talia no chance to object."Quentin, you..." Talia felt flustered and didn't know what to say.But then Quentin unwrapped the scarf from the snowman. He looped it around his own neck first to warm it, then removed it and wrapped it around Talia instead.Talia didn't refuse. She cooperated by lowering her head so that Quentin could wrap the scarf around her.Once he finished, she looked up at Quentin, who was also looking at her. His eyes were red from the cold and full of laughter.They were close enough to feel each other's breath.Talia's heart skipped a beat. She noticed snow covering his head and reached up to brush it away. "It's so cold. Why didn't you dress warmer?"In her memory, Quentin always wore coats and jackets. They were stylish, but they weren't nearly as warm as a down jacket.Quentin lowered his head so Talia could reach the snow more easily.He was usually very protective of his image and

I'll take you."Quentin pushed the wheelchair around until he found a flowerbed where snow had accumulated thickly. After locking the wheels, he turned to Talia. "There's plenty of snow here. Let's build it here.""Okay."Talia leaned forward slightly and reached out with her freshly warmed hands to touch the cold snow.The cold stung her hands, but warmth filled her heart.She gathered the snow together and began forming the snowman's body. Quentin stood to the side, pulling out his phone to record her."Honey, turn your face this way a bit."

    Talia placed the stool and brushed off nonexistent dust from her hands. Looking at the window she'd left open, she smiled with a touch of pride.Just then, a head suddenly appeared at her shoulder. "You're leaving the window open for me?"The voice was playfully teasing. She knew immediately that it was Quentin.But his sudden appearance at her ear still startled her. She pressed her hand against her racing heart and demanded indignantly, "You... How did you get in here?"Her face flushed bright red.Quentin steadied her, grinning. "Through the door, naturally."Talia frowned. "My brother is downstairs. How did he let you in?"Quentin leaned in slightly until their eyes were level. "Should we go downstairs and ask him together?"Talia was completely unwilling. "No. I'm not going."She used her crutch to make her way slowly back to the bed and made to lie down.Quentin quickly grabbed her wrist. "Come on. Let me take you out for a bit."The suggestion stirred something in her

She touched Yvonne's cheek gently. "Yvonne, why are you bringing this up all of a sudden?"Yvonne shook Nancy's arm vigorously. "Nancy, will you or won't you?
