Selena's heart was beating unevenly, and as she looked into the man's deep and dark eyes, she suddenly realized that Osvaldo had already noticed her abnormalities and discomfort. He may have even guessed that she was not the real Selena.
He had always known, but never exposed it.
Selena felt the indulgence and sincerity in his eyes and hesitantly asked, "If I'm not pretty, would you still...?"
Osvaldo smiled, "No, in my eyes, you will always be the most beautiful."
Selena's heart raced, and she suddenly thought of something and asked, "If you find out in the future that I've become a completely different person from the one you know now, could you still recognize me?"
Osvaldo hugged her tightly, and suddenly exerted force.
Selena winced in pain, raised her head, and then froze.
The man seemed to have been struck by a painful spot in his heart, and the still and deep eyes suddenly had ripples.
Osvaldo stared at her intensely, as if wanting to turn his embrace into a cage, to keep her forever imprisoned in his world, unable to disappear or escape.
Selena's breath suddenly paused, feeling a hint of repression and palpitation.
"I'll go crazy if I can't find you," the man's voice was light amidst the heavy snow, and his eyes faintly revealed something that made people's hearts tremble.
"So no matter who you are or where you are, I'll find you."
"I like you," Osvaldo's expressionless face showed a look that had been etched into his bones, his gaze was cold and passionate as he stared at her, "from the first glance, to a lifetime."
Selena's heart seemed to have stopped beating, and for a moment, she lost all her words.
She stared blankly at the pair of deep and dark eyes that seemed to contain nothing but her, and realized that this man liked her.
But it wasn't until tonight that she heard his confession.
Liking was a very strange word.
Humans had given it too much meaning and emotion, and once it was spoken, it would cause a heart to tremble.
Selena had only just realized that this man liked her, but now she had heard his confession.
Liking that had not been spoken and liking that had been spoken were different.
She could still pretend that nothing had changed with the former.
But the latter...
Selena's curled up eyelashes trembled lightly, and in her heart, a strange and hot emotion surged out from a place that had been pried open.
She wanted to say that she hadn't avenged her big grudge yet, and even if she accepted his confession, she couldn't give him an equal heart, this relationship was doomed to be unfair to him.
She wanted to say that she still had to go home, she had too many things to do, and with her, stability was not an option, she couldn't even guarantee if she would leave him and walk away in the future.
She wanted to say that instead of liking her so hard, it would be better to-
Selena's thoughts stopped here, and suddenly, on this cold snowy night, a bell rang, the bell from the cathedral, accurately passing through twelve o'clock.
At the same time, a pair of slightly cool hands lifted Selena's chin.

The readers' comments on the novel: Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
From the beginning of the story to page 148, the plot is just going in circles about fighting. So ridiculous and waste of time to read! I have no patience for these kind stories. Be more creative if you’re planning to write a book/story!!!...
Beautiful story...
