Rosalind returned to the ward and noticed that Ulric was in a meeting with the company’s shareholders.
She didn’t disturb him, simply waving her hand to indicate that he should continue with his work and not worry about her.
As Rosalind listened to Ulric conversing with the other party, she found a corner to sit quietly and watch him work.
Suddenly, Rosalind thought of Ulric during their middle school days. He would always be dressed neatly in his school uniform, sitting quietly and writing, with clear and refined features. He was reserved and spoke little, occasionally furrowing his brows in thought or flipping through textbooks to make notes.
Her impression of this deskmate was that he was clean, quiet, and sought after by many girls. She knew he came from a wealthy family, and there would always be a black sedan waiting to pick him up after school. But back then, she had no idea about the car brand or how luxurious the car was! She just felt that the car she saw was the most beautiful and grand she had ever seen, but she never had the chance to ride in it.
As she continued watching him, she couldn’t help but take out her phone and capture his serene expression as he was deep in thought.
After looking left and right, she realized that there was no angle from which his face didn’t look perfect! His features were delicate and profound, with a sharp jawline. His eyes were captivating, with shallow double eyelids visible when he lowered his gaze. Below that were fan-like eyelashes.
Rosalind saved this photo to her cloud album and hesitated for a few seconds before deciding whether to put it in her personal photo album or the landscape photo album.
After pondering for a while biting her bottom lip, she created a new album in the cloud, changing the unnamed album name to “0825”.
After completing these actions, she suddenly felt like she had been influenced by Ulric and had become a bit childish herself for engaging in this kind of secret photography!
But overall, she was feeling pretty good.
“This album should contain some photos of us with the children, not just my solo shots.”
Ulric appeared behind her without her noticing.
Rosalind was startled and deliberately put on a stern face. “Why don’t you listen to Dr. Stewart? She told you not to get out of bed!”
“I know my body.”
Ulric bypassed Rosalind and took her phone away. He removed his own solo shot from the “0825” album and created a new album named “U”, dragging his solo shot into it.
“What are you doing?”
“In ‘0825’, I want there to be many photos of you, me, Floyd, and Jake.”
He didn’t want to be alone in this album.
Rosalind blinked and chuckled, “If you want to take a photo with me, just say so! Mr. Walters, beating around the bush is not your style.”
Ulric raised an eyebrow. “Alright then, I want to take a photo with you. Can I, Miss Ruell?”
“Mmm… let me think about it.” She deliberately paused for a moment. “Okay then, I’ll fulfill your wish, Mr. Walters!”
She stood up and held her phone with the front camera facing herself.
However, despite Rosalind’s best efforts to tiptoe, she still couldn’t capture Ulric’s entire face in the frame.
“You’re too tall! Crouch down!”
Ulric curved his thin lips and took the phone directly from her hand. Then, effortlessly, he pulled Rosalind into his arms against the wall.
Before Rosalind could react, in the instant, when he pressed the shutter button, he lowered his head and kissed Rosalind’s lips.
All she heard was the sound of the camera shutter clicking, followed by being pressed against the wall while his breath gradually grew heavier.
“Ulric… we agreed that we would only take pictures…”
“Who did you make that agreement with?”
He certainly didn’t say anything about it.
