Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSelena felt her heart thumping in her chest when she saw the man approaching her, and she could barely conceal her excitement. Josephine didn’t expect Selena to ask the man to sit with them, so she said to the woman, “I'd better not be the third wheel, then.” With that, she rose from the chair and turned around, facing the man directly. Under the lights, Ethan appeared doubtful. What? It's her?! That's impossible. She looked unkempt in the morning, but she looks so gorgeous at night.
