Chapter 165: Chapter 165: A big Drama

Vaelen’s POV~

When I heard my uncle was finally coming back, I rushed down to receive him. Honestly, I was worried. He had gone out alone, without guards, without any support. That was not like him. So yes, I was tense the whole time. But now that he was back, I could finally breathe a little.

I was ready to greet him when the car stopped. But then... I froze.

Because someone else stepped out. A young girl.

At first I was just shocked to see anyone come out of his car. My uncle was the coldest person I knew. He never brought anyone back. Not even friends, because he had none.

But this girl... she looked like him.

The same silver hair. The same sharp features. Not exactly the same, but close enough that no one could deny they were blood-related.

That alone shook me. But then something else hit me, even harder.

She looked like Selene.

For a second my breath got stuck. My whole body stiffened. Selene’s face flashed in my mind, and now I was seeing almost the same face standing in front of me.

That meant... Selene looked like my uncle. Not completely, but enough. At least sixty percent.

My heart pounded at the thought. Why? Why did Selene look like him?

Just the thought of her was enough to make my heart ache, because the current news that was widely circulating had also reached me, and it came with proof I couldn’t deny.

I forced myself to push that thought away. This was not the time. I needed to know who this girl was first.

And before I could even ask, my uncle opened his mouth and introduced her. "My daughter, Serena."
