The Game Character I Raised Was a Powerful Dynasty Heir Chapter 07
My heart skipped a beat.Â
As I took the phone, I secretly studied hisÂ
expression, trying to read something in his face.Â
But his expression was so calm that I couldn’t read anything from it.Â
“…Thanks,” I said dryly.Â
William said nothing more; he stood up andÂ
walked to the door. “The kitchen made someÂ
porridge. If you’re hungry, you can come down and have some.”Â
“Okay.”Â
As soon as he left, I opened the game.Â
The little figure on the screen was pacing back and forth anxiously, with a string of question marks and exclamation points floating above its head.Â
[Where did my player go???]Â
[Why isn’t my player online???]Â
As I looked at these pop–up dialog boxes, a waveÂ
of mixed emotions washed over me.Â
“I’m fine, I just fell asleep,” I whispered, running my finger soothingly over his head on the screen.Â
Only then did the little one settle down, gentlyÂ
nuzzling my fingertips.Â
I stared at the face on the screen and thoughtÂ
back to what William had just said.Â
What did he mean? Did he know something?Â
I shook my head and banished those jumbledÂ
thoughts from my mind.Â
I must have been overthinking it.Â
Late at night, when all was quiet, William sat aloneÂ
in his study.Â
He was holding my phone.Â
The game interface was still lit up, and theÂ
character on the screen was sitting in a luxurious.Â
study, deep in thought.Â
William stared at the screen for a long time.Â
The perspective I saw in the game, the sensationsÂ
transmitted by the system, and the woman whoÂ
had been drugged tonight and nearly met with disaster gradually began to overlap.Â
So she was the one.Â
It turned out that the person who had beenÂ
keeping him company every day, taking care ofÂ
him, and chattering away nonstop on the otherÂ
side of the screen was actually her.Â
His fingers tightened involuntarily, and he grippedÂ
the phone a little tighter.Â
“So it was you,” he said softly, a faint smile playingÂ
at the corners of his mouth.
