Chapter 43 Do You Love Me?

• Liam Walton was the first to recover his composure. For a moment, he had been caught off guard by the sight of Evelyn standing in front of him, wearing nothing but a loose nightgown and looking about as surprised as he felt. But as soon as his mind cleared, he curved his lips into a faint smile, the kind that usually signaled confidence—maybe even a hint of mischievousness.
• “May I come in?” he asked in an even tone, trying not to stare too blatantly at her disheveled hair or the pajamas that clung to her figure.
• Evelyn snapped out of her daze upon hearing his voice. Realizing she had been gaping at Liam, she cleared her throat and quickly lowered her gaze, stepping aside to grant him entrance. “Uh… yes, of course,” she said a bit awkwardly, pulling the door open wider.
