Momentarily, Eric was caught off guard.
He had to acknowledge, she truly stood out.
In the past, she had the appearance of a delicate doll.
Now in her early twenties, she had evolved from her naive youth, flourishing like a fully
bloomed rose…
Eric scrutinized her, his eyes tightening. “Earlier in the bathroom… did you catch a glimpse of something?”
