He silently handed the comb in his hand to Selina.
She took it and started combing Missha's hair naturally.
Her movements were gentle and tender.
"Auntie, your hair is beautiful. Look at how smooth and thick it is," Selina said softly as she combed her hair.
There was a constant slight smile on her lips, which made her look beautiful to no end.
A layer of mysterious light gradually appeared in Dylan's eyes.
"Dylan, I want to eat the bagels sold at the gate. Can you go buy some for me?" Missha suddenly asked.
Dylan glanced towards Selina.
Selina nodded at him. "It's okay. You can go. I'll stay with Auntie and talk to her."
Dylan nodded.
When he walked to the door, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and he looked at Selina. "Selina, what do you feel like having? I'll get some for you too."
The grin on Selina's face deepened. "I'm fine with anything. I'll like whatever you buy me."
Dylan couldn't help but raise the corner of his lips too.
After Dylan left, the only ones left in the tiny apartment were Selina and Missha.
Selina continued to carefully comb through her hair.
Although Missha had quite a few white hairs, they were all hidden in her thick mane. If Selina wasn't combing her hair, she wouldn't even be able to spot them. In general, Missha looked rather youthful.
"Auntie, I'll help tie your hair up," Selina said with a smile after she was almost done combing.
Missha didn't say a word.
Just as Selina was about to tie her hair up, a strange glint suddenly flashed through her eyes.
Missha asked in a somewhat strange tone, her voice hoarse, "You're Dylan's girlfriend?"
Selina nodded. "Yes, Auntie, I am."
"Come here," she ordered, becoming a little agitated.
A look of confusion flashed across Selina's eyes.
Didn't Missha already know that she was Dylan's girlfriend? Why had she become so perturbed after hearing her answer?
She obediently walked over to face Missha.
Although Selina was arrogant in character, she was also a kind-hearted person.
Missha stared straight into Selina's eyes. For some reason, her stubborn gaze made one's hair stand on end.
Selina suddenly felt goosebumps all over her body.
She forced a smile as she looked at Missha. "Auntie, are you feeling alright? Do you have something to say to me?"
She wondered if Missha was actually very dissatisfied with her, but hadn't said it out loud since Dylan was there earlier.
"Have you seen Reid?" asked Missha.
Selina paused, unsure of how to answer.
Who was Reid? She had never heard of this name.
"Where is Reid?" Missha asked again anxiously.
"Auntie, I don't know anyone called Reid," said Selina.
Her reply unnerved Missha even more.
"How could you not know him? You are Dylan's girlfriend, how could you not know Reid?!"
Selina was completely confused now.
She became a little nervous when she noticed Missha's tone getting louder and louder.
Selina tried to comfort her. "Auntie, please calm down first. I really don't know anyone called Reid. Since Dylan is coming back soon, why don't you wait until he comes back and see if he knows where Reid is?"
