chapter 38

Isabella's POV

"Why didn't he find Anastasia attractive?" I asked Richard, my brow furrowed in confusion. My voice was soft, yet carried a hint of curiosity as I looked at him, waiting for an answer. The question hung in the air, and I shifted slightly in my seat, unsure why someone would overlook her.

Although Miss Anastasia is often quite rude, there's no denying that she is stunningly beautiful. Her features are delicate and elegant, with soft, flowing hair that frames her face in a way that seems almost effortless. Her eyes, despite her sharp tongue, have a sparkle of warmth and kindness hidden beneath them. When she does smile, it's as if the whole room brightens up, drawing people to her despite her sometimes harsh words.
