Chapter 79 Familiar Face
Ring Ring Ring.
Everyone's attention shifted to Justin when his phone suddenly rang.
"Is that your girl?" Zelena asked, raising an eyebrow. The ringtones was clearly different.
"Yeah, I gotta take this call, excuse me. He looked excited as he walked away from the group to find a private place.
"I thought they broke up already?" One of the girls chimed in.
"Yeah, apparently he got caught by the paparazzi with some Korean actress," Zelena shook her head disapprovingly. "He's a nice guy, but he can't seem to keep it in his pants."
"I mean, I'm not surprised. He's really popular. But what's interesting is that he's been dating her for a month now, and we haven't even seen a picture of her."
The other girls nodded in agreement, their curiosity piqued. Justin was not the kind of guy to hide his relationship , so it was fascinating to see him act like this.
"But you know what's even more interesting?" Another girl leaned in, her voice lowering to a whisper. "I've already slept with him while he was trying to make amends with her girlfriend"
Zelena choked on her drink, her eyes widening in shock. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. He had always thought of Justin as a playboy , but to hear that he had slept with one of his friend's was just low.
They continued to gossip behind his back. They were his friends so it was understandable that they were curious about his love life.
Fir, on the other hand, was unfazed by the gossip. He was enjoying his time at the Diamond Club House, but he knew he wouldn't be coming back anytime soon. He preferred to explore the city on his own.
"I gotta go," Fir stood up, disappointing the other girls who enjoyed his company. His good looks were enough to keep them entertained. However, they understood that someone like him must have a busy schedule.
"Let's follow each other on Insta," Zelena suggested, pulling out her iFhone 12 Pro Max.
"I don't have Insta," He replied.
"What do you mean you don't have Insta? Everyone has Insta." Zelena looked surprised
"I'm not really into social media. But you can have my number." Fir shrugged
"That's good enough" Zelena handed her phone over to him and he input his number.
"See you guys later," he said before making his exit.
As Fir strolled towards the exit of the club, he realized that stepping out of his comfort zone wasn't such a bad idea after all. He couldn't help but notice how easy it was to make friends when you're a rich and handsome guy like him.
"It's still early, maybe I should hit downtown," he mused to himself.
Suddenly, something in his peripheral vision caught his eye. "Elaine?" he blurted out unconsciously. His heart rate increased and his mind started racing, but then a sudden wave of calm washed over him, leaving him confused as to why he had muttered those words.
The stunning woman glided past him, and he couldn't help but become captivated by her beauty. She donned a casual T-shirt and a skirt that hugged her curves in all the right places, accentuating her captivating brown skin. Her dark chocolate eyes drew him in, and her luscious, silky hair cascaded down her back with an alluring grace.
He was tempted to call her out but as he was about to approach the stunning woman, he heard a familiar voice calling out to her. It was Justin, and he ran towards her with open arms.
"Elaine! I'm so glad you're here," he exclaimed as he hugged her tightly. Fir couldn't help but feel a tinge of jealousy, but he managed to keep his composure.

Elaine POV
As I walked into the building, my thoughts were solely focused on my purpose for being there: to forgive Justin for his wrongdoing. However, as I scanned the room, my eyes landed on a man who looked familiar.
"Vincent?" I murmured to myself, trying to recall my classmate face. But as I looked closer, I realized that this man was much more attractive than Vincent. He was tall, strikingly handsome, and exuded confidence. It was like he was born to be in the spotlight.
"He's definitely not Vincent," I told myself, shaking my head. "Their eyes are the only similarity." I paused for a moment, taking in his chiseled jawline and perfect features.
As I continued to watch him, my curiosity piqued. Who was this really attractive man?
I couldn't help but steal glances at his face as I walked past him. There was something about him that caught my eye, something different from anyone I had seen before. Even my boyfriend Justin, who was undeniably good-looking, didn't compare to this guy's raw appeal.
I tried to brush it off, thinking that I was just being silly, but I found myself turning back to get another glimpse of him. His tall frame, sharp jawline, and dark hair were just too captivating.
I wondered if he was a model or an actor, someone famous that I should recognize. Or maybe he was just a regular guy who was blessed with extraordinary looks. Either way, he had definitely caught my attention.
Then suddenly, I was jolted by my boyfriend's voice.
I turned to face Justin and smiled. He hurriedly ran and hugged me passionately, and I could feel his sincerity in his embrace.
"I'm glad you're here," he said, still holding me tightly.
"I forgive you, Justin," I replied. "I don't want to hold a grudge anymore."
We stood there for a moment, just hugging each other, and I glanced over Justin's shoulder and caught the handsome stranger's gaze. He was looking at me, and I felt a sudden jolt of attraction.
I quickly looked away, feeling a bit embarrassed, but I couldn't help but steal another glance at him. He was still looking at me, and I wondered if he felt the same spark that I did.
"Am I a bad girlfriend for having this kinds of thoughts?"
