Seducing His LoveChapter 1 Reluctant as He Was

I rarely attend dinner parties with my parents, but today was an exception. I put on my dress and light makeup two hours in advance, constantly checking the time.

My mom reassured me. "Don't rush. If you're too hasty, the Cox family will laugh at you. Also, chat more with Dylan and ignore that wastrel Marcel."

I nodded and smiled in agreement, saying nothing.

What my mom didn't know was that I had been waiting for this moment for four years.

When we arrived at the dinner party, the Cox family was already there. Dylan Cox was seated upright and charming.

But Marcel Cox was nowhere to be seen.

Marcel's parents were fuming, their faces dark as they kept glancing at the door.

I bit my lip, anxiously watching, afraid Marcel might not show up.

Dylan and Marcel were cousins. Dylan's father was the eldest son of the Cox family patriarch, while Marcel's father was the second son. In this generation, Dylan and Marcel were the only grandchildren.

Dylan had always been outstanding, while Marcel was notorious for drinking, speeding, and fighting.
