Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Chapter 1127

In just a few seconds, Francis found himself deep in thought as he gazed at

Selina.

Suddenly, he gave a slight smile. "No need to fuss. Your sister will be out any minute now..."

He reached for the fruit platter on the table.

"I'm not really a fruit person, but it's hard to refuse such kindness."

With that, he picked up a slice of apple, popped it into his mouth, and said, "See? I ate it."

His smile widened, and he flashed a grin at Selina.

That grin made Selina's heart skip a beat!

Francis was undeniably handsome, but he usually had a serious expression. Who knew that when he smiled, he was even more charming!

Selina felt a slight warmth on her cheeks, a sense of excitement bubbling up inside her.

She wasn't ready to leave just yet. She had to find something to talk about.

Pointing at Francis's phone, she asked, "Mr. Johnson, are you busy?"

"Not at all." Francis immediately locked his phone. "Just browsing through things with nothing better to do."

Seizing the opportunity, Selina suggested, "How about we exchange numbers?" Her heart was racing. Would he refuse?

"Sure thing."

To her surprise, Francis nodded and agreed without hesitation, unlocking his phone and opening up the contacts app.
