Chapter 1869 Her Boyfriend
Larry had not recovered from his shock. He simply stood rooted to his spot gawping at her.
“Hello? Can you hear me?” Selena waved her hand in front of his face.
“Joan!” Larry cried tearfully. In a sh, he hugged her tightly as tears flowed freely down his cheeks.
Selena was startled. She admitted that the man before her was very handsome, but she was not a
loose woman. With all her might, she pushed Larry away from her, ring fiercely at him as she did so.
“Hey, watch yourself! Are you going to give the flowers to me or not?” Selena pointed at the pot in his
hands.
“Joan, you’re hurt!” Larry eximed as he pointed to her knee which was bleeding profusely.
Joan?
Something clicked in Selena’s mind. He must have mistaken me for somebody else!
“It’s none of your business,” she said impatiently. “Just tell me if you’re going to give…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Larry swept her up in his arms.
Selena was dumbfounded. She was painfully aware of her own racing heartbeat and increasingly
shallow breathing. Her head was pressed against his chest. What a strong heartbeat he has…
“You’re hurt. Let me take you back. Don’t worry, I’ll give you the flowers,” Larry said gently.
For reasons unbeknownst to her, Selena felt an overwhelming sense of peace being in his arms and

listening to his voice.
“Mr. Norton, please put me down. I’m fine,” Selena said with an embarrassed blush.
The vigers were a conservative lot. If somebody saw them, they would misunderstand.
“Where’s the hospital?” Larry asked as he gazed tenderly at the woman in his arms.
Selena’s mind went nk at his question.
This is but a small vige. What kind of hospital would we have?
“We do not have a hospital here, only a clinic,” Selena replied softly, not daring to meet his eyes.
Larry’s gaze was piercing, and it made her feel like he could see right through to her heart.
“Where is it? Tell me. I’ll take you there.”
Selena was touched by Larry’s determination. It was the first time since being in the vige that she
was this close to a man. It was also the first time she was being embraced in a man’s arms.”
“Wow, Selena. Your boyfriend is really handsome!”
“That’s right! Hey Selena, why didn’t you think about mentioning him to us, hmm?”
“Hey, handsome. Treat us to lunch someday, won’t you? If you want to be with Selena, you’ll have to
pass our inspection first.”
Several women approached them and started chattering inquisitively.
“What are you all talking about? He’s not…” Selena red at them fiercely as she waved at them to
stop talking. The flush on her face had darkened into a deeper shade of red.
“Sure, I’ll treat you guys to lunch someday,” Larry said to the women, interrupting Selena.
Selena gazed at him with eyes as wide as saucers.
Is he admitting to the fact that he is my boyfriend? For some reason, she felt her heart leaping with joy.
“Ooh, not bad, Selena!”
“So, should we call you our brother-inw now?”
“Brother-inw has a nice ring to it. Do keep in touch with us! We’re leaving now.”
With winks and nudges, the women departed like scuttering hens. They did not want to intrude on the
couple’s alone time.
Soon after, only Selena and Larry were left. Their surroundings fell into silence once more. The
atmosphere was so thick that the air felt solid.
Selena nced at Larry nervously as she was momentarily struck dumb. Larry gazed back at her
passionately. He wanted to kiss her forehead badly, but it appeared that she did not remember him.
It wasn’t until Larry had started walking that Selena finally regained her senses.
“Um… Those girls are my friends,” Selena exined awkwardly. “We are used to making jokes like
that. Please don’t take it to heart.”
“But I was not joking.” Larry stopped walking suddenly.
Taken aback, Selena’s breathing hitched.
“Do you really not remember me at all?” Larry gazed earnestly at her.
Selena looked back at him dubiously. Should I remember him?
