When Love Breaks (Josephine) novel Chapter 253

Though Ethan's eyes still carried some resemblance to when he was young, his features were completely different.

He had high brow bones, a straight nose, and lips that were strikingly sexy. Could weight loss alone really achieve this?

Ethan smiled. "Didn't I tell you? To win over my first love, I've spent years working out and taking care of myself. I knew she was a total sucker for good looks, so to keep her eyes on me, I had to level up my appearance as much as possible. Well? Are you satisfied?"

Everything he had done was to captivate her. From the moment they reunited until now, if nothing else, he was confident that his looks and physique were her ideal type. That alone gave him a sense of confidence.

Josephine covered her mouth, completely stunned. She never expected herself to be his first love or that he had liked her since when he was just a chubby kid.

"Don't worry, I'm not confessing to you and demanding that you be with me right away. Take all the time you need. Whether it's a year, two years, or even three or five. I can wait."

Of course, that was a lie. In reality, he was already growing impatient. He was desperate to be with her, to have her, to spend the rest of his life with her. But he didn't want to scare her off.

Besides, now wasn't the time to pressure her. She was still grieving over Zayn.

Josephine sat frozen on the couch, feeling as if she were in a dream. Everything that had happened lately felt so unreal. From Zayn's betrayal to Yvan's return, and now Ethan's confession. Her mind was in complete chaos.

Before this, she had decided to close herself off and never fall in love again. But his confession shattered her defenses in an instant.

She had always envied women who were deeply loved. Yet now, she realized she was that woman. Only, now that it was her turn, she found herself hesitant and anxious.

Zayn and Yvan weren't perfect, yet even they had betrayed her for other women. Ethan, on the other hand, was flawless. With just a crook of his finger, he could have any woman he wanted.
