"Welcome, beautiful lady."
Lin Chen's attention was entirely focused on the woman getting out of the SUV, so he completely missed the terrible expression on Erica's face as she stood half a step behind him.
The lady's long, wavy hair glinted beautifully in the morning sun, dancing wildly in the forest breeze like a scene from a commercial.
Her features were sharp and delicate, her skin was fair, and she had a pair of brilliant, sapphire-blue eyes.
Europeans have rather mixed ancestry, so they can have any hair and eye color. Blue eyes like hers are quite common, so there was nothing particularly special about them.
Lin Chen smiled and stepped forward, about to offer to help with the luggage, when Erica grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and yanked him back.
"What are you doing here?"
Before Lin Chen could even recover from that sudden chokehold, he heard Erica demand in an exceedingly cold tone.
Huh?

??????????
'Something's not right!'
'They know each other?'
