Chapter 99
He was a perceptive man.
He had long known that Selina didn’t see him as a man. And yet, he kept revealing his feelings—because he wanted her so badly.
But the outcome never changed.
Her unchanging heart always stood tall like a wall in front of him.
Memories of Selina began to surface in his mind—swelling like clouds, boiling like molten lava.
When he held her hand. When he embraced her. When they danced together. When he cut her hair. When they met late at night.
Selina had always been the same.
Unlike him, who changed bit by bit from their first meeting to today. Unlike him, who fluctuated wildly between impulsive and rational, between burning hot and freezing cold.
Yes—Selina never changed.
It wasn’t about her facial expressions or tone of voice. Those things never changed no matter who she was with or what situation she was in.
‘No... wait, that’s not true.’
A sudden memory flickered in Lukas’s mind—Selina smiling at Aiden. The pang in his chest made his fingertips curl.
