The woman standing across Selene had silky black hair.
With delicate features, she had an air of elegant beauty about her as her eyes shone soulfully under the light. Her skin was as fair as snow, and her demeanor was both innocent and alluring.
Dressed in a beige white dress, her frame was tall and slim, giving her the impression of a fallen angel.
Gloria frowned. "Harvey is coming to see me? I thought that he was busy with something."
Selene smiled. "Nothing is more important than you."
Gloria kept her eyes trained on Selene for a few moments in silence before questioning, "What did you say to him, Selene?"
Feeling slightly guilty, Selene muttered, "Nothing much..."
"I've contacted Harvey a couple of days ago and he said that he was busy so he can't return to Stoneford City for the moment. What did you say to him for him to come running back?" Gloria asked calmly.
Finally, Selene decided to tell the truth. "I... I just don't think that there's anything more important than you. Besides, I didn't exactly lie. Our car did run into trouble and you are injured..."
"It's just a scratch. You can hardly call this an injury." Gloria took out her phone and continued, "Selene, if you call Harvey in my name again, there's no point for us to remain friends."
She glided her finger across the screen of her phone and made the call.
"The number you have dialed is unreachable at the moment."
