Osvaldo's paranoia and darkness were unprecedented. If Selena rejected him or betrayed him, the final result would be either him destroying Selena or Selena destroying him.
Selena elegantly stood up and smiled, but didn't say anything. She just turned around and walked back to Osvaldo, holding his hand. Osvaldo's eyes lit up with joy, and he held her delicate hand in his palm.
Watching Antonio risk even his own son, the people at the scene didn't know what to say. Those who had accused Selena of not considering the Poole family's interests for her own benefit were now red-faced with shame. They had to admit that if a man was willing to go to such lengths for them, how could they not be moved, especially if it was a man they liked?
Ignoring their jealousy and resentment, everyone knew what was going on between Selena and the Soo family. Even someone as proud and haughty as Constance clenched her fists and couldn't speak. Under the dominant bridal gift presented by Osvaldo, there was no point in acting high and mighty and accusing Selena of being shameless except to expose their own hypocritical envy.
The young ladies at the scene looked at Selena with a bitter and envious gaze. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they might not have felt so upset. But they had seen it, and so this day became a deep and difficult memory for all of them.
The scene fell into silence.
Nicholas' eyes were full of anger, "No matter how many reasons the Turner family and the Anderson family have, it doesn't change the fact that the person engaged to the Soo family is from the Turner family!"
"As long as the engagement between the Turner family and the Soo family exists, the marriage between the Turner family and the Anderson family will be despised by the world!"
Antonio was provoked, and he slammed his crutch heavily on the ground, "You shameless old man!"
Nicholas suppressed a cold smile on his lips. His old eyes were full of cruelty, "I want to see what people will say if the Anderson family marries the Turner family without first dissolving the engagement between the Turner family and the Soo family!"
Antonio stared at Nicholas with murderous intent. The two old men suddenly became angry, which frightened everyone and made them back away. The other families who were enemies of the Turner family sneered, feeling lucky and pleased with themselves.
As long as Nicholas bites the bullet and cancels the engagement, even if Selena and Osvaldo have many reasons, they cannot escape the fate of being criticized and condemned. At that time, both families will inevitably be disgraced. Given Nicholas' personality, if the Soo family agrees to cancel the engagement, the Turner and Anderson families will definitely pay a heavy price!
Patrick's face turned cold, but he still asked the question for the sake of the Turner family and Selena's reputation, "What do you want in order to agree to cancel Selena and Alfie's engagement?"
Nicholas gave a smile, "Patrick, the Soo family has come this far and only lacks an heir!"
"And this heir can only be Selena and Alfie's child!"
Patrick's face suddenly sank.
The Soo family's true strength is not inferior to the Shaw family of the four major families, and can even compete with the Riddle family. Therefore, the Soo family is not lacking in wealth.
What the Soo family lacks is power.
And Selena, whether it is her identity as the first mechanic in H Country, or the Turner family's reputation in the police force, is destined to reach heights that everyone else cannot reach.
As everyone knows, the young master of the Turner family is not in good health, so it is still a question whether he can leave an heir.
If anything happens to Patrick, Selena's child will definitely be the only heir of the Turner family.
Even if Patrick can have an heir, can the Turner family, which has no blood relatives left, ignore their own nephew?
At that time, with Selena and the Turner family, the Soo family could still stand at the pinnacle of power.
This old guy has a big appetite!
At the same time, everyone also understands that with such great benefits at stake, the Soo family cannot give up that engagement no matter what!
The Turner family seems to have no other way but to admit defeat.
For a while, all major families looked at the Soo family with envy.
Although the Soo family's behavior is despicable, what is shame in front of family interests?
Only the Turner and Anderson families care about their so-called family reputation.
