Be Spoiled After Rebirth (Selena and Osvaldo) novel Chapter 1709

Chapter 1709: The Grand Wedding.

The man in front of her had a dark glint in his eyes.

"Why did you suddenly come to this place?" he asked.

"I don't know," she replied. "I was just waiting for him to snap out of it, and then I found myself standing here."

There seemed to be some kind of bond driving him here, even if he didn't realize it.

The girl didn't get a response and her eyes became more pitiful. She began talking again.

She turned her head and looked at the door of the research institute not far away with longing. "The research institute is the most dangerous and safest place in Central City. There are countless super geniuses there, each one making waves."

Seeing that the man wasn't interested at all, she changed topics again. "And among them, the youngest and most talented genius is Central City's Queen. My father told me that she's not only the strongest super genius in Central City's research institute but also Lab 717's greatest treasure."

"You said earlier," interrupted the man suddenly, "that Central City's Queen... is a super genius from Lab 717?"

It was the first time that he spoke up on his own accord so she was surprised for a moment before immediately getting excited again as she started talking about what interested him.

"Yes! The Queen is an extremely rare scientific talent who has brought Central City's scientific level to new heights during her reign."

After looking around to make sure no one else was listening, she lowered her voice and continued speaking: "My father told me that privately, The Queen created an android with technology beyond this era which protects our entire alliance but due to certain reasons cannot be made public knowledge; this robot is hidden within this very research institute."

Seeing how intently he listened now after being uninterested before made her continue even further: "Not only is The Queen smart but also incredibly beautiful; many young talents from across our empire have fallen for her."

"And The Queen's fiancé happens to be a nobleman who grew up alongside Her Majesty since childhood."

A dangerous glint flashed through his eyes involuntarily as his voice became low and cold once more: "What's The Queen's name?"

Taken aback by his sudden change in demeanor yet still looking into those piercing eyes of his without realizing it herself until later on when reflecting back upon their encounter -she answered subconsciously- "Selena Riddle…her name is Selena Riddle."

After returning from her meeting with the palace, Selena immediately began issuing one command after another. Each order was aimed directly at Lillian and was openly announced to the empire. The moment these orders were given, the entire empire seemed to be on edge.

The conflict between the regent and queen had been brought to light and was now on the brink of exploding. Selena's sudden change in behavior left people sleepless with confusion.

As queen of the empire, Selena had always been cautious in her actions, minimizing losses and risks before making any decisions. However, this time she seemed completely enraged, using aggressive tactics that were vastly different from her usual style.

If things continued down this path, even if she emerged victorious in this struggle for power, it would come at a great cost.

Despite this knowledge though, no one dared approach her with advice or counsel when faced with those deep black eyes of hers.

Late into the night Stanley entered Selena's chamber where he found her buried in paperwork. He looked at her tired face before saying gently "Your Highness it is late; you should rest."

Selena put down her pen and lifted up a snow-white face tinted slightly blue around the edges as she replied softly "There is no need."

In times past she had been frail due to poor health but after a year spent recovering from an extended coma both physically and mentally she was stronger than ever before.

Selena's suspicion deepened as she read through the documents. Stanley handed her a hot towel, and she wiped her hands before asking, "Did you find anything?"

Stanley shook his head. "Miss Governor, the person is heavily protected. We can't find any opportunity to investigate."

Selena's eyes turned cold as she smiled and said, "If we can't find anything, then we should tell Robert about it. As Lillian's confidant, he should have an easier time investigating than us."

But if Lillian was deliberately hiding this person from Robert, it meant that his existence must not be known to him.
