Hailey hesitated for a moment, then shrugged. “Forget it.”
She stepped back into the dressing room to change.
The white dress was simple and elegant–the kind of thing an old–money family would approve of
It wasn’t as striking as the red one, but it had a quiet beauty that was just as captivating.
The saleswoman beamed. “Miss, with your complexion and figure, you could make anything look good. Honestly, you’d still turn heads in a burlap sack.”
Hailey chuckled at the flattery but didn’t take it too seriously.
She turned toward the mirror, studying herself. Soft, clear skin. Lips naturally tinted red. A face that, even without makeup, had an effortless charm. She almost didn’t recognize herself.
In her past life, she had been timid, and unremarkable–she never paid much attention to her appearance.
After being reborn, she still didn’t think about beauty much. As long as she looked presentable, that was enough.
But judging by the way people reacted to her, maybe she was prettier than she realized.
Her eyes drifted toward the reflection beside her–toward Owen.
She had to admit–Owen was stunning.
No matter how many times she saw him, she still found herself staring.
If being too good–looking were a crime, Owen would be serving a life sentence.
Maybe that’s why he rarely appeared in public–if he did, half the women in the city would probably lose their minds.
As if sensing her gaze, Owen lifted his head, meeting her eyes through the mirror.
A spark flickered between them.
His expression was unreadable, but his eyes–gentle, deep, knowing–held hers for a beat too long. She looked away immediately, her heart pounding.
She needed to keep her distance. If she wasn’t careful, she was going to fall for him without even realizing it.
She thought, “This is dangerous.‘
