Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 207

It was the perfect place for a destination holiday.

As I lost myself in a daydream, someone asked, "Who are you looking for, Miss?"

I turned, seeing a girl in a white dress. Her braided hair rested against her chest. Her eyes sparkled, as if they were made of the river.

"Are you Miss Howell?" I asked.

Surprise crossed her face. "Yes. Are you here for my brother?"

Once she said that, I knew for certain that she was Brandon's sister. To be frank, they didn't look anything. alike, but both of them were stunning. Brandon's charm belonged to that of a masculine warrior, while his sister shared the soft ethereal features of a fairy.

"Yes. I'm his friend, Mae." I extended my hand toward her.

She was stunned for a moment. Then, she shook it. "I'm Ellie."

She looked pleasantly surprised and timid. I smiled. "May I come in?"

Ellie came to her senses and let go of my hand, ushering me in as she mumbled to herself, "He didn't even give me a heads up. I haven't cleaned up or anything."
