His wife has always demanded from him, her lover, to meet the standards she sets.
Her background and experiences meant that no one had ever taught her how to date. Even worse, no one had probably told this just-turned-adult girl how to like someone normally.
Osvaldo parked the car outside the airport and turned to look at his girl sitting in the passenger seat, staring at him with wide eyes.
After a moment, he raised his hand and stroked her hair, "Selena, we can't evaluate our relationship like this."
Selena looked up at him with a tender and naive expression, "What?"
Osvaldo raised his hand and hugged her, looking down into her eyes, "Finding a boyfriend is so that you have someone to help pay for things when you shop, to carry your luggage when you travel, to take care of you when you're sick, to accompany you when you're lonely, to cheer you up when you're sad, to help you stand up for yourself when you're wronged, to tolerate you when you throw a tantrum..."
"All of these are things that your boyfriend should do for you."
Selena widened her eyes in surprise, "But..."
Wouldn't that be too tiring for him?
Osvaldo looked at her lovingly, "I am your husband, and loving you, protecting you, and helping you through troubles are my responsibilities."
Osvaldo lowered his long eyelashes slightly, with a hint of loneliness between his brows and eyes, "Selena, I feel sad being left out like this."
Selena's breathing paused for a moment.
She looked at the man's delicate and cold face, and a hint of bitterness rose in her heart. She leaned over and rubbed against him, "Osvaldo, that's not what I meant. I just feel..."
"I know."
The man grabbed Selena's slender fingers, lowered his head and kissed her lips, "You are my wife and have the right to do anything to me, so... you don't have to feel that you owe me anything, and you don't need to feel uneasy."
Selena quietly looked at the man in front of her, and after a moment, suddenly smiled, "Osvaldo, you're so kind."
He is more indulgent towards her than Stanley.
Osvaldo looked at her smiling face, and his lips curled slightly as he pushed open the car door.
Outside the car window, the sky had already darkened.
In the darkness, a man held his wife and walked into a brightly lit airport.
Ten minutes later, a plane took off from Capital and flew to Creephia.
The Turner family.
As soon as Osvaldo left Capital with Selena, Patrick received a message. Looking out at the deep night outside the window, Patrick asked in a low voice, "Why did Selena leave Capital at this time? She just took office as the head of the research department today. Knowing Selena's personality, she would never leave without saying goodbye unless it was something very urgent."
Fraser reminded him, "If you're worried, you can call and ask."
Patrick was silent for a moment, then took out his phone and sent Selena a text message. "Selena is not someone who doesn't know the importance of things. There must be a special reason for her sudden departure."
"The Riddle family seems to have caused a stir today," Fraser said casually. "Maddox has been called back."
Patrick's heart skipped a beat, realizing that Selena's sudden return to Creephia might be related to Lady Nevaeh.
Lady Nevaeh's death was indirectly related to the Riddle family's elders. Did Selena find out... that the real culprit who killed her mother was among them?!
At the same time Selena was flying to Creephia, a video about her suddenly appeared on Weibo and quickly rose to the top of the trending list. At first, the newly released video didn't attract much attention.
But when a netizen saw it, they ran to Selena's Weibo and exclaimed, "Get ready! Selena is going to trend again!" and attached a video link.
Upon hearing the news, Selena's fans on Weibo immediately clicked on the link. It was a well-edited video.
