The moment she heard the voice, Jessie Sterling froze in her seat, her eyes wide with disbelief.
She stared at the newcomer in shock, as if she could have never imagined he would appear in Southaven tonight.
At the same time, Lynn Jennings, who was sitting across from her, was also stunned.
She forgot all about flirting with the man beside her.
Although she had never seen Victor Morgan in person, she had gotten a photo of him through a friend while she was in Port Caldoria.
A man who looked like that was truly hard to forget, even if you had only seen him once, or even just in a photograph.
Besides, the Victor Morgan who had just appeared in the bar exuded an aura that seemed completely out of place.
Lynn Jennings thought to herself, 'It's all over.'
'I never wanted to get in the way of the engaged couple's relationship,' she thought. 'But in a situation like this... well, as her best friend, all I can do is say a silent prayer for Jessie Sterling.'
