NovelEnglishChapter 212 It was a genuine vacation paradise.
Lost in thought, I was suddenly snapped back to reality by a voice asking, "Hey, are you looking for someone?" Turning around, I saw a girl in a white sundress, her hair braided in pigtails resting on her chest, and eyes sparkling with a clarity as if washed by the surrounding nature.
"You're a Collins, right?" I asked back.
A flicker of surprise crossed her eyes. "Yeah, are you here to see... my brother?" Hearing this, I was certain she was Ernest's sister. Honestly, she didn't bear much resemblance to Ernest, but both were undeniably attractive in their own right.
Ernest possessed a rugged kind of handsomeness, while his sister's beauty seemed to have been refined by the landscape around her.

As she prepared the tea, she glanced around the courtyard. "My brother built this place especi met for me. He said it would be good for my health." I was amazed; creating such a space must have taken considerable effort and thought.
Ernest must truly adore his sister to put in so much effort.

"You're so beautiful," Susie complimented, embodying the saying that a beautiful person is kind at heart and sweet of speech.
"And you're even more beautiful, like a fairy living in a hidden paradise," I complimented sincerely.
Susie blushed, a girlish shyness in her smile. After a moment, heneyes twinkled "Are you my brother's girlfriend?" I could see the hope in her eyes; she'd be disappointed if I said no.
Before I could answer, she added, "You must be his girlfriend He m wouldn't tell you about this place if you weren't." Her words caughtoff guard. Had Ernest anticipated my visit? It seemed I had unwittingly played into his hands.
