The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1274

As she and Dane stepped outside, the grounds were completely deserted. Snowflakes had begun to fall at some point, blanketing the ground in a thin layer of white.

Claire caught a flake in her palm. "It's snowing!"

Dane nodded. "Are you cold?"

Claire was bundled up in a fluffy coat today, the snow-white collar highlighting her radiant complexion.

But the temperature drop between the indoors and outdoors was severe, leaving her hands feeling a bit frosty.

"My hands are a little chilled," she admitted honestly.

Dane took her hands in his.

"How about now?"

His fingers were smooth and his palms broad, radiating a steady, comforting heat into her skin.

Claire instinctively tried to pull back, but Dane held her firmly in place.

She gave in and let him hold her. "Much better."

They walked side by side in companionable silence, neither of them suggesting they head back, leaving two parallel sets of footprints in their wake.

There wasn't a soul in sight; the snowfall had chased everyone indoors.

But beneath the warm, amber glow of the streetlights, the man and woman looked like a scene pulled straight from a painting.

Even their silhouettes were strikingly beautiful.

A random passerby happened to snap a photo of the moment and posted it online with a single caption: Snowy night in Cabinda.

Many people saw the man and woman in the picture, and despite only seeing their backs, they couldn't help but marvel at how deeply in love the couple seemed.

[Taking a stroll in the snow is so romantic. Where's my soulmate? I want to go look at the snow too!]

[Ugh, you can tell just from their physiques that they're a perfect match. Where did the OP take this? I want to go bump into them!]

[It's a good thing it's snowing. If it were raining knives, let's see who'd dare to show off their PDA outside.]

[They're not necessarily showing off. They might just be taking a post-dinner walk.]

[Hold on, did you guys notice the architecture in the background? That street looks like The Eastside Enclave. Those are all luxury single-family estates over there.]

[Got it. The people in the photo are rich, the poster is rich, and I'm the only broke loser here.]
