Stanley watched her uncomfortable expression as she put down her glass and let out a sigh, "Your Majesty, you've changed a lot."
Selena was taken aback for a moment before she understood what Stanley meant and smiled, "Probably because he has taken very good care of me."
When she was in the empire, she never easily expressed her likes or dislikes.
Selena looked up at Stanley, her eyes curved, "I didn't understand before, but he made me realize that before being a queen, I am first a girl."
Stanley's gaze was deep and vaguely shrouded in something, "Is he really that good?"
Selena's smile became even sweeter, and her slender hands propped up her chin, "He is really good, very good. From the first time I met him, he was very kind to me, just like you are to me."
Stanley's voice was somewhat hoarse, "But I heard that he hurt you and made you spit blood..."
Selena's bright eyes dimmed for a moment, shaking her head, "My spitting blood has nothing to do with him, and that incident was not intentional. It's all in the past."
Stanley's face turned pale, and he crouched down in front of Selena, looking into her eyes, "Your Majesty, this is not like you."
Selena looked at his somewhat pained expression and smiled, "Stanley, do you know? After that incident, he gave me a knife."
"He said that if he ever made me sad again, I should use that knife to dig out his heart."
"A man who can give his life for me at any time, I can't help but forgive him and love him."
Stanley said coldly, "Such an extreme man is even less suitable for you!"
Selena looked at him in surprise, "Stanley, it's not like what you're thinking. Osvaldo is very gentle and chivalrous..."
As if thinking of something happy, Selena smiled nostalgically, "When I first became Selena of Creephia, I was seriously injured, infamous, and had nothing. He gave me a home..."
"Since I came to him, he has always treated me very well. He never lies to me, nor does he force me to do anything."
"When I was injured, he would comfort me and take good care of me."
"When those people slandered me, he never doubted me and always unconditionally believed in me, helped me, and protected me..."
Selena smiled and looked into Stanley's eyes, "He is the best man I have ever met outside."
Stanley looked at her deeply emotional expression and his voice became hoarse. "Your Highness, in this world, there is no one who is kind to another without any ulterior motive. He is only good to you because... he had a plan for you from the beginning!"
Selena wasn't angry, she just looked at him calmly. "Stanley, what do you really want to say?"
Stanley gently stroked her hair. "I just want to tell you that the man is not as simple as you think he is. I don't want you to rely too much on him!"
Selena smiled slightly. "I know, but I choose to believe... that he truly loves me."
Is Osvaldo really that simple and does Selena really know nothing about him? The answer is undoubtedly no.
"I know you're worried that I'll make the same mistake again," Selena smiled. "I've had doubts like that before too."
"My father told me from a young age that those in power, love fiercely but mercilessly, and they should trust but also be cautious."
"In my life, I have many people I can trust, but the only person I can truly rely on is myself."
"At any time, I cannot put myself in a situation where I have no way out."
