Mystery Bride's Revenge (Selina)

Chapter 30

Selina couldn't help but be charmed by Nora's genuine, bubbly grin-it was the real deal, not a hint of fakeness. She felt the good vibes coming off Nora and smiled back, grabbing her hand. "Hi there, Nora. Trevon's mentioned you too, you know." Nora made a face. "As ift Trevon's got a ton on his plate. He wouldn't waste time talking about me."

"He does talk about you, really, You're his sister, he's gotta care," Selina reassured her, but her smile faded a bit as she remembered something. Once during dinner. Trevon had brought up Nora, and it was clear from the look in his eyes that it wasn't just annoyance he felt-it was full of brotherly love. Yup, even Trevon, who was the big shot of the Brarly family and had a reputation for being super tough, had a soft spot for his sister

For Selina, the Harvey family's lost daughter, life was supposed to be all about catching up on love and attention after going missing for twenty-one years. At least, that was what the old Selina thought. But what she got instead was the cold shoulder, getting tossed off a roof, the kind of bad times, and then to top it off, getting mauled by wild dogs.

Nora noticed a flicker of sadness in Selina's eyes, gave her hand a gentle squeeze, and then turned to Devin, saying. "Devin, can I hang with Selina alone for a bit

Sare thing, Fll fix up some snacks for you two, Devin answered, all kindness.

After Devin split, Nora scooted close to Selina on the couch and dished out some hilarious old stories about Trevon as a kid. Selina was cracking up she couldn't believe the serious, no-nonsense Trevon she knew had these goofball moments in his past. Like, if anyone else heard these tales, no way they'd match them up with the Trevon of today-nobody would believe it.

Nora was like this late ray of sunshine, spreading warmth wherever he went. Just bring around her was a total breath of fresh air, kind of like hanging out with a childhood friend from next door. Nothing about her screamed "rich and snooty heiress". Take away Nora's cutesy, innocent look, and one'd swear she was just a fun-loving, down-to-earth middle-class girl. Right off the hat, Selina was a fan.

"Look, I gotta say sorry for something, just don't be mad, okay? Nora said with a mischievous glint in her eye. "So, Trevon was like super annoyed with our family pushing him to go on these blind dates. He wasn't into it at all. So, ut. I might've pulled a prank and posted a fake wedding announcement online for him.....

Selina couldn't resist grinning, getting why it all happened now. It figured that it was Nora, the family's prankster, who kicked off the whole mess And honestly, the thought of Trevon, of all people, doing something as wild as that was nuts. Maybe this was just how the universe wanted things, bringing them together in their quirky, let's-make-this-work marriage. Tim not mad. You were just trying to help him out weren't you?"
