Chapter 1223: Suddenly, her phone vibrated again.

This time, it was a message from Karina.

Corrine's smile faded slightly as she read the words "Happy birthday," but she quickly composed a polite response.

She then opened Nate's chat and typed her reply.

No sooner had she sent the message than Nate called.

"Why are you up so late?" Nate's deep, resonant voice caressed her ears.

His voice was so enthralling that shivers ran down her spine.

She rubbed her ear and rolled onto her stomach.

"You're still up too, aren't you?" Corrine asked, her voice carrying a hint of weariness.

"I miss you," Nate blurted out suddenly.

Corrine paused, her smile broadening. “I miss you too." Spending every day together on the Independent Continent had only deepened her affection for him, turning it into a comforting routine.

That was why she felt so restless staying at the Ford family htonight.

Meanwhile, Nate, sitting in his car, heard her words and smiled wistfully, looking out his window.

"You missbut won't csee me?" he teased.

"A girl should be more reserved sometimes..." Corrine began.

Before she could finish, Nate interjected, "It's quite cold outside the Ford Mansion." At that, Corrine leapt out of bed and dashed barefoot to the window, only to realize her room was too far from the gates to see anything.

She changed her clothes in a hurry and dashed out.

As she passed Carl's study, she slowed down, tiptoeing like a cat stealing food when no one was watching. She breathed a sigh of relief only after reaching the stairs, unaware that Carl had expected this all along.

From the moment he knew Nate was outside, he had anticipated corrine's ve reaction.

Carl turned back to the chess gin front of him and placed a pièce e thoughtfully. "See, isn't this beyond your expectations now?" he remarked.

Across from him, Jayden frowned slightly. He eyed the chessboard where black and white pieces were embroiled in a tense standoff. The gwas complex, and the stakes were apparent. The black pieces were dominant, poised to crush the last hope of the white. Yet, Carl had just offered a lifeline to his opponent, altering the expected course of the game.
