Suddenly, Selena caught sight of a familiar face. She’s the young woman who stays beside our villa. She’s all dressed up tonight, and she looks even more beautiful now. She took the initiative to say, “Hey! Do you want to sit with me?”
Although Josephine was a reporter, she was introverted when she wasn’t working. Since Selena had invited her, she pulled out a chair and sat down.
“What do you do for a living?” Selena asked curiously. She could tell that Josephine came from an ordinary family, unlike the other haughty, wealthy ladies.
“Hi, my name is Josephine Jacobson. I’m a reporter,” Josephine replied. Hearing that, Selena asked, “You’re a reporter, eh? Are you here for work?”
“No. I’m here to attend the wedding with my mom. Josephine shook her head and asked, “What about you?” “I’m the bride’s cousin.” Selena loved introducing herself as Ellen’s relative as it gave her a sense of superiority. As expected, Josephine looked at her in shock. “You’re the bride’s relative?!”
It’s no wonder her mother was so haughty after bumping into my mom the other day. They’re the bride’s relatives, after all. A smug smile appeared on Selena’s face as she ran her fingers through her long hair. “Yeah.”
Josephine looked in the bonfire’s direction and saw that many people in expensive clothes had gathered as they spoke different languages. There were also many guests from foreign countries. It was her first time seeing so many people from different parts of the world, so it felt exciting.
“Do you have a target tonight?” Selena asked all of a sudden. Josephine was startled for a moment before asking, “What about you?”
“Yes,” Selena replied confidently. “Oh. What’s his name?” Josephine asked curiously as she took a glass of water from the waiter and drank it. “His name is Ethan Quarles,” Selena uttered proudly.
Upon hearing that, Josephine sprayed out a mouthful of water, Embarrassed, she wiped her mouth with a piece of tissue and said, “I’m sorry. The water is too cold.”
“Do you know him?” Selena asked with squinted eyes. She felt that Josephine’s reaction was rather uncalled for. Josephine quickly denied it by waving her hand and saying, ‘No, no, no. I don’t know him. Honestly speaking, I don’t know anyone else on
the island apart from you. I haven’t even met the bride and the groom yet.” Selena believed her as she rested her chin on her palm and said, “He’s a very handsome biracial man. Moreover, he’s the groom’s best friend.”
Josephine couldn’t help feeling gossipy. As she recalled the woman and Ethan making out the other night, she asked, “Since you know him so well, what base have you reached with him?”
Selena loved bragging, so she raised her hands. and connected both of her index fingers. Josephine figured they must have kissed. Just then, Selena looked behind Josephine ast her pupils dilated. She cupped her face excitedly and said, “Oh, my gosh! He’s here!”
Hearing that, Josephine felt her chest tightening. She turned her head and saw Ethan appearing at the entrance that was embellished with lights. He was wearing a dark shirt and a pair of khaki pants, making him look attractive among the crowd. Josephine hurriedly pocketed her gaze. Just then, Selena asked, “Is my makeup still intact? How does my lipstick look?”
After examining the woman, Josephine replied, ” “Your makeup looks perfect.” The next moment, Selena rose from her chair and went to greet Ethan, who was about to brush past them. ‘Hey, Mr. Quarles. Would you like to sit with us?”
Ethan turned his head and saw Selena waving her hand. At the same time, he saw a woman at the same table. In an instant, he was attracted to the slender figure under the lights. Although he hadn’t seen her face yet, she had the kind of figure that most men loved.
Since the woman was wearing a camisole dress, he could see her blemish-free shoulders. Her hair had been tied up loosely, which revealed her alluring neck.
