From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent
Chapter 157
Chapter 157
In a cozy living room, three figures stood.
An excited Sarah gripped the hand of a young man, guiding him to Anthea. “Ann, this is my fiancé, Lacy Brown. Lacy, this is Anthea.”
Sarah was clearly head over heels for Lacy; she was barely 20 and already eager to marry Lacy. Anthea had expected Lacy to be a real catch, especially since Sarah, a stunning girl herself, wouldn’t settle for just anyone.
But to Anthea’s surprise, Lacy turned out to be decidedly average. He was the kind of average that could disappear into a crowd, slightly overweight, with a budding beer belly and a receding hairline that added years to his appearance.
He looked to be in his late thirties, at least…
The Browns were business folks, always well–kept and youthful looking. Next to his parents, Lacy looked less like their son and more like a younger brother….
Could it be true that love is blind? In Sarah’s case, it certainly seemed so.
She didn’t care for looks or charm; she valued Lacy’s honesty and the special way he treated her.
She feared that a too–handsome man would only be trouble, the kind to have affairs and flings. She couldn’t risk falling for a playboy.
Anthea raised an eyebrow subtly, her smile warm as she greeted, “Nice to meet you, Mr.
Brown.
“Nice to meet you, Ms. Yeager, Lacy stuttered, taken aback by Anthea’s beauty, which seemed to eclipse even Sarah’s.
Sarah playfully swatted him, “What’s with the formality? Too distant! Ann is my best friend; just call her by her name.”
“Sarah’s right,” Anthea chimed in, “Just Anthea is fine.”
