No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 212



It was a genuine vacation paradise.

Lost in thought, I was suddenly snapped back to reality by a voice asking, "Hey, are you looking for someone?"

Turning around, I saw a girl in a white sundress, her hair braided in pigtails resting on her chest, and eyes sparkling with a clarity as if washed by the surrounding nature.

"You're a Collins, right?" I asked back.

A flicker of surprise crossed her eyes. "Yeah, are you here to see... my brother?"

Hearing this, I was certain she was Ernest's sister. Honestly, she didn't bear much resemblance to Ernest, but both were undeniably attractive in their own right.

Ernest possessed a rugged kind of handsomeness, while his sister's beauty seemed to have been refined by the landscape around her.

"Yeah, I'm Felicia, a friend of Ernest," I said with a smile, reaching out my hand.

Susie seemed startled for a moment before shaking my hand. "I'm Susie Collins."

Her mixture of surprise and awkwardness made me smile. "Can I come in?"

Realizing her oversight, Susie quickly let go of my hand and invited me in, mumbling, "My brother really should have told me you were coming; I would have tidied up."
