Chapter 272: Schadenfreude

I couldn't stay any longer, otherwise I wouldn't be able to stop myself, at least from overthinking...

Tina Riverside felt that the longer she stayed with Basil Jaak, the more she couldn't help but think of their relationship in a certain way.

But Basil Jaak only saw her as a sister, it was impossible...

"Basil, from now on you're my brother. I... I'm going back now..."

With complicated emotions welling up inside her, Tina Riverside hesitated for a moment, finally sat up from the bed, straightened her clothes, stood up, and slowly walked towards the door in the dark.

Quickly getting off the bed, Basil Jaak said, "It's dark, and there's no electricity, be careful not to fall."

Seeing Basil Jaak get off the bed to see her out warmed her heart, and various reluctant feelings converged into one sentence. She mustered her courage and asked Basil, "Basil, can... can you hug me for a moment?"

A hug?
