Be Spoiled After Rebirth (Selena and Osvaldo) novel Chapter 1689

Chapter 1689: Little Scammer!

Selena smiled and walked inside. The room was large and quiet, with dim lighting. A tall figure stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the dance floor below. Selena couldn't see his face, but something about his silhouette seemed familiar.

Before she could fully process her thoughts, the man turned around to face her. Their eyes met and both froze for a moment.

Selena stared at him through his mask, her own eyes widening in recognition. It was the same mask she had seen before - black and striking against his pale skin.

Her mind raced as she tried to make sense of what was happening. It felt like something big was about to happen...

The atmosphere was frozen like a film, completely still in this moment. In the dead silence, it was unclear whose heartbeat was louder, as if it were about to burst out of their chest.

After about a minute, Selena finally came back to her senses and turned around to run out quickly while saying, "Sorry sir, I accidentally walked into the wrong room!"

Just as Selena was about to run out the door, a hand suddenly reached over her head and closed the door before she could leave. A slender and attractive hand rested on her shoulder as the man leaned in close to her ear with what seemed like a smile. His voice was gentle but sent shivers down Selena's spine when he said "You didn't walk into the wrong room; you found who you were looking for."

Selena's delicate body trembled.

A - You're done for!

She battled within herself whether she should just confess or try harder to escape. After all, she had drastically changed her style today.

What if... he didn't recognize her?

Although knowing the likelihood is slim, dreams should still exist, even if the probability is 0. 001%.

With this in mind, Selena turned around voluntarily, her expression composed, and deliberately lowered her voice with a serious undertone. She asked, "Sir, do you know who I'm looking for?"

The man in front of her first glanced at her bare legs, his demeanor becoming somewhat heavy. Then his gaze shifted to the coat she was wearing, clearly meant for a man, and he let out a cold smile.

Without hesitation, he raised his hand and discarded the coat, revealing her smooth and white bare shoulders underneath.

The man's gaze fell on the black strap dress that exposed a large area of her skin. He lowered his eyes slightly, a indescribable smirk forming at the corner of his lips.

Upon seeing that smile, Selena shivered and almost surrendered on the spot. The man's cool fingers landed on her collarbone and pressed down like playing a piano. His tone sounded normal as he asked, "Meeting your childhood sweetheart or an ex you've wronged before?"

Selena remained silent.

The man chuckled. "Love letters, flowers, confessions, knights in shining armor..."

Still no response from Selena.

She lifted her face up to meet his gaze and ran her slender fingers over his face. Her lips curved into a seductive smile as she asked him back, "And what brings Mr. Ghost here tonight?"

"Is it to see the girl he had a crush on in his youth?" he replied.

"Or is it to visit the first love who received love letters and flowers from him?" she added.

"I heard that Mr. Ghost has already married someone else," Selena continued teasingly. "Does Lady Ghost know you're out here meeting your ex tonight?"

The man laughed at her words and said with amusement, "Why don't you give her a call and ask if she minds?"
