NovelEnglishChapter 25 "Hey, young lady, you're looking gorgeous." Ray said with a playful grin, his eyes a mischievous twinkle.
"Hello" Flora nodded.
Ray frowned at her voice. Why did it sound like that beast? He quickly dismissed the thought. How could that ugly duckling compare to the beauty before him? Her skin was glowing, her lips fresh and plump like newly blossomed roses.
He teased Connor, "Look at you, fancying this type, huh!" Ray draped an arm over Connor's shoulder winking, "Did you have a change of heart? I always said that ugly girl wasn't right for you.
