Rebirth In Divorce: My New Mr. Perfect by Henry Foster

Chapter 269

"An old man and a young girl, really quite a comical sight."

"Could that Yasmine really have lost it, dancing with a beggar like that?"

"Shh, keep it down. Those who come to these wine tasting events aren't ordinary people, don't speak out of turn."

"Looking at his tattered clothes, he doesn't seem like anyone important."

Under the spotlight, Yonas and Irene were waltzing. Irene's hand rested gently on his shoulder as she gazed at his handsome face, momentarily dazed, because those eyes were not looking at her, but at Yasmine.

Not far away, Yasmine was dancing with an elderly gentleman. Although time had turned his hair white, it couldn't diminish his upright posture. Through the tunnel of time, she almost glimpsed the young man he once was. Something's not right! Irene suddenly looked at Yonas, and those eyes held a subtle smile. That old gentleman was definitely not a beggar! He was....

The orchestral performance filled the air with the waltz, and for the first time, Yasmine saw such a serious expression on the old gentleman's face. His head was lowered as he looked at her, as if trying to peer into another soul through her. At this moment, he was nothing like his usual humorous self when commenting on the wines or the childish manner he had with Lucy. Through the seams of time, she seemed to see the grace of the man he once was.

"When I was young, I attended a ball. I was just a kid, never seen anything like it before, feeling shy and too timid to speak. Then she appeared in front of me and pulled me to dance. I'll never forget how bright her smile was the first time I saw it," the old gentleman recounted to himself.

Yasmine appropriately chimed in, "Did you fall in love with her?"

"No, at that time I wasn't good at dancing at all. I kept stepping on her feet. Everyone at the venue was laughing at me. I thought, someday I'll learn the waltz well and ask her to dance again." "Did you succeed!

The old man continued, "No, she can never dance again."
