A Love Forgotten Novel by Webfic

Ter was chattering away beside me

“I told you! Logan likes you! Ani, seriously, compared to that lowlife scumbag Elijah, Mr. Wood is an absolute catch!

“He’s got it all–character, family background, and power. He’s miles ahead of anyone else.

“Ari, don’t overthink it. You and Elijah have been a mess for ages. This is just things falling into place like they were meant to.”

In the end, I chose a moon–white modified nightgown embroidered with plum blossoms. I hadn’t worn it before and wasn’t even sure why I had bought it in the first place.

The quality and craftsmanship suggested it was handmade. I held it up in satisfied and sled.

Noticing I wasn’t saying much, Teri quickly started helping me with accessories. We picked out a set of pearl jewelry, and she gathered my hair into an elegant bun.

“Ta–da!” Teri spun me around to face the full–length mirror, beaming with pride. “See? I told you, An! You look gorgeous!”

Mooked at my reflection, a soft smile on my face, and my cheeks flushed with a gentle blush. The dress hugged my figure perfectly, exuding a blend of elegance and youthful charm.

In the mirror, my skin looked smooth, my face glowing with a natural beauty that even I couldn’t help but

admire.

Teri, in her usual dramatic way, pretended to wipe away tears. “Ah, seeing you like this feels like I’m losing a daughter! Go on. Have your date! I’ll stay back and hold down the fort for you two lovebirds.”

I laughed and playfully swatted her arm. “Why don’t you come along?”

Teri waved her hands in exaggerated protest, “No, no, please, Ms. York, spare me! I’m weak and frail, only fit for lounging around, eating snacks, binging TV shows, and dreaming of some romantic break–in.”

I couldn’t help but stay speechless.

Teri glanced at the clock. “You better go! Logan’s probably waiting! But I’ve got to say, is Mr. Wood seriously taking our lovely Ms. York to a dinner event for the first date?”

She spoke in mock annoyance but still pushed me out of the room. When I walked into the living room, Logan stood up. Our eyes met, and I felt my cheeks flush again.

He had changed too. He now wore a light blue suit with a crisp white shirt, casually unbuttoned at the collar. Around his neck was a silk scarf, almost like a tie, adorned with delicate bird and floral patterns.

The outfit elevated his natural charm, making him seem even more refined and elegant. His hair was also styled effortlessly, each strand perfectly in place. A few locks fell across his forehead, softening his already polished look.

Admiration filled his eyes as he looked at me. “Ari…” He paused, his voice soft. “You look stunning tonight

Feeling a bit shy, I glanced at his outfit and whispered, it’s almost like we’re in matching outfits.” I asked.”

Isn’t it a bit too much?”

Even though we hadn’t coordinated beforehand, our outfits matched so perfectly like we’d planned to wear a couple’s outfit.

Logan stepped closer and offered his arm to me, his expression calm and steady. “Sometimes, making a statement is necessary.”

“Why?” I asked, confused.

Logan smiled. “Because this is a path we have to walk.

His words sounded deep and meaningful, but I didn’t quite understand.

Logan led me out the door, where a driver was already waiting downstairs. This time, a different car was parked. A luxurious Maybach, even more elegant than the black one from before.

As we settled into the car, Logan gently patted my hand. “Tonight, we’re meeting a few highly respected individuals. Don’t worry.”

With that, he leaned down and kissed my hand. My nervous heart suddenly felt calm, and I nodded in response.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Even though Logan had given me a heads–up, I still wasn’t prepared for what awaited me when we arrived.
