Chapter 1689: Little Scammer! Selena smiled and walked inside. The room was large and quiet, with dim lighting. A tall figure stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the dance floor below. Selena couldn't see his face, but something about his silhouette seemed familiar.
Before she could fully process her thoughts, the man turned around to face her. Their eyes met and both froze for a moment.
Selena stared at him through his mask, her own eyes widening in recognition. It was the smask she had seen before - black and striking against his pale skin.
Her mind raced as she tried to make sense of what was happening. It felt like something big was about to happen...
The atmosphere was frozen like a film, completely still in this moment. In the dead silence, it was unclear whose heartbeat was louder, as if it were about to burst out of their chest.
After about a minute, Selena finally cback to her senses and turned around to run out quickly while saying, "Sorry sir, | accidentally walked into the wrong room!" Just as Selena was about to run out the door, a hand suddenly reached over her head and closed the door before she could leave. A slender and attractive hand rested on her shoulder as the man leaned in close to her ear with what seemed like a smile.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis voice was gentle but sent shivers down Selena's spine when he said "You didn't walk into the wrong room; you found who you were looking for." Selena's delicate body trembled.
A- You're done for! She battled within herself whether she should just confess or try harder to escape. After all, she had drastically changed her style today.
What if... he didn't recognize her? Although knowing the likelihood is slim, dreams should still exist, even if the probability is 0. 001%.
With this in mind, Selena turned around voluntarily, her expression composed, and deliberately lowered her voice with a serious undertone. She asked, "Sir, do you know who I'm looking for?" The man in front of her first glanced at her bare legs, his demeanor becoming somewhat heavy. Then his gaze shifted to the coat she was wearing, clearly meant for a man, and he let out a cold smile.
Without hesitation, he raised his hand and discarded the coat, revealing her smooth and white bare shoulders underneath.
The man's gaze fell on the black strap dress that exposed a large area of her skin. He lowered his eyes slightly, a indescribable smirk forming at the corner of his lips.
Upon seeing that smile, Selena shivered and almost surrendered on the spot. The man's cool fingers landed on her collarbone and pressed down like playing a piano. His tone sounded normal as he asked, "Meeting your childhood sweetheart or an ex you've wronged before?" Selena remained silent.
The man chuckled. "Love letters, flowers, confessions, knights in shining armor..." Still no response from Selena.
She lifted her face up to meet his gaze and ran her slender fingers over his face. Her lips curved into a seductive smile as she asked him back, "And what brings Mr. Ghost here tonight?" "Is it to see the girl he had a crush on in his youth?" he replied.
"Oris it to visit the first love who received love letters and flowers from him?" she added.
"I heard that Mr. Ghost has already married someone else," Selena continued teasingly. "Does Lady Ghost know you're out here meeting your ex tonight?" The man laughed at her words and said with amusement, "Why don't you give her a call and ask if she minds?" Selena still didn't say anything.
He traced his finger over her lips gently until the red lipstick smudged slightly before asking again: "Who gave you this dress anyway?" Silence filled the air once more as Selena remained tight-lipped about everything happening between them...
"She can still be saved!" Selena said with a serious expression. "Actually, | cout with my friends to have sfun because of my husband's domestic violence..." The hand that was resting on her lips stopped.
"Domestic violence?" The man looked at her, his gaze fixed on her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelena tried to express herself seriously. "Since | was five years old, he has been against me. | grew up being ‘bullied’ by him..." In fact, this statement seemed to be true.
This man in front of her had once made it impossible for her to sleep at night.
"..." The man stared at the girl who accused him first and then laughed softly. "How did he bully you?" He lowered his head and bit down on the strap of her shoulder, pulling it down little by little. "Like this?" Warm breath fell on Selena's smooth skin and she trembled slightly.
The man's slender fingers slid down along the beautiful curve of her waistline. "Or like this?" Selena... She couldn't say anything.
As she sensed the man's aura becoming more dangerous and his actions crossing the line, Selena couldn't hold back any longer and cried out, "Honey, I'm sorry..." The man's movements froze as his slender fingers gently touched the back of her head, removing the mask from her face, revealing her delicate and beautiful visage. Her eyebrows and eyes were dark and exquisite, and at that moment, they were filled with teary desperation as she looked at him.
The man stared into those eyes. Why hadn't he noticed before that they were so similar to the little crybaby from his childhood? Aarav's eyes were similar too, but this person's were delicate and lively, the true original. The faint sense of discomfort he had felt all these years finally had an explanation. That little scammer who tricked him back then wasn't Aarav at all; it was this person in front of him... Selena, Aarav... the little scammer looking for her brother...
The man couldn't help but laugh at this realization and bit her lip playfully. "You little scammer!" He had been searching for someone who was right beside him all along.
Selena's eyes welled up with tears as she pleaded with Osvaldo, "I'm sorry | forgot! Please don't be angry with me!" "And you've been opposingall along! | was afraid to approach you..." It was already remarkable that she could still remember even a tiny bit about him after having her memories wiped.
Osvaldo picked her up and sat down on the couch while staring intently at her face. After studying it carefully several times, he finally asked, "... you forgot?" Selena's dark eyes swirled around, confirming that the man seemed to have calmed down. She breathed a small sigh of relief.
She wasn't used to talking to strangers like this. She lifted the mask off Osvaldo's face, revealing his gentle and handsfeatures.
Selena smiled and reached up to wrap her arms around his slender neck. "Yeah, after | went home, my parents somehow madeforget about this memory.” "For so many years, all | can remember is that | made a promise with someone who agreed to be my knight and confess their love for me... | don't remember anything else.” She looked at Osvaldo with sparkling eyes. "So Osvaldo, you know about my relationship with that big brother guy, right?" MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 mmMwWLLIOfiflO& 1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MULL TO £2 E1061 mmMwWLIiIOfiflO&1
