Be Spoiled After Rebirth (Selena and Osvaldo) novel Chapter 385

Chapter 385 Moral Kidnapping

Selena looked at the man who appeared to stop her and raised an eyebrow, "Who are you?"
The man held the document in his hand, extended his right hand to Selena and introduced himself with a smile, "Lady Selena, how do you do, I am Miss Leah's defence lawyer, my name is Bison Reynolds."
Hearing the name Bison Reynolds, the group of lawyers behind Selena's back was stunned.
Selena looked at his hand and her eyes flickered.
All around them, in addition to them, there was a large crowd gathered specifically to see the action, were looking at her at the moment.
If she were to refuse to shake hands with Bison in such a public place, it would give the impression that she was being rude.
After all, Bison was speaking to her in a very friendly manner and there was no overbearing behaviour.
Selena's long eyelashes fluttered and she looked indifferently at Bison's shrewd eyes, raising her chin and showing her arrogance, "If you have something to say, you can tell the judge and my defense attorney in court, what is the point of stopping me here?"
Disdain unfolded in her eyes and she snorted faintly, "Get out of the way."
Bison froze, seemingly not expecting Selena to be so arrogant even in front of the crowd, but he withdrew his hand tamely, without moving out of the way.
He looked at Selena and asked solemnly, "Lady Selena, before going to court, I would like to confirm with you that if there is really no possibility of a private settlement in this matter."
Selena's eyes seeped with a touch of darkness.
Olympus Group's lawyer, behind her, whispered, "Lady Selena, be careful, this Bison is very famous in the lawyer's circle. He handled a rape case before, he overturned the case for the raper, the victim couldn't accept the result and committed suicide. As long as you pay, there is nothing he can't overturn case."
Selena's gaze turned icy cold.
She hadn't planned to pay any attention to this man, but she changed her mind.
She inclined her head and her delicate red lips curled slightly, like a queen on high, "How is it private?"
Bison met her smiling eyes and inexplicably had a feeling of being suppressed, shrewd light in his eyes, "Lady Selena, I have carefully understood your relationship with the accused and found that you are actually a family. She is considered your mother, you should be a very happy family, only two months ago, because of this incident, it led to the growth of family conflicts and the relationship gradually went towards a breakdown."
Selena let out a light laugh, her tone dripping with deep mockery, "So?"
Bison held up the glasses on his face, "In that case, why don't we choose a better way to solve the problem? I've been to see Mrs. Riddle, she has felt profound regret for her actions and has been wanting to apologize to you, but you refused to see her."
Selena's dark eyes contained a faint mockery, and she waited for Bison to continue.
Bison said in a deep voice, "Lady Selena, no matter how sorry Molly is to you, she has raised you after all, the kindness of nurturing you for more than ten years is absolutely impossible to be false. Due to this kindness alone, can't you give her a chance? In fact, you can try to sit down and discuss the matter calmly and find a solution that satisfies everyone, isn't this a better way than going to court?"
Selena looked up at the clock on the wall and raised her chin, arrogant and cold, "I'll give you ten minutes to finish your long-winded speech."
A gloomy look swept through Bison's eyes as he looked at Selena, and his voice was filled with agitated cross-examination, "Lady Selena, have you ever thought about what will happen in the future if you send your mother to prison today? Your father is already very sick and is still lying in the hospital, your sister is seriously injured and is alone in a wheelchair trying to save her mother, your mother is in prison, tears in her eyes, and the people of the city are watching your Riddle family's jokes."
"Is this really what you want to see when what was once a happy and fulfilling family is now shattered into this state?"
"And, by sending your mother who raised you to prison, even though you are the victim and have the upper hand, others will still say you are a narrow-minded woman when your name is mentioned."
"Lady Selena, you are still young, you do not understand the viciousness of this world. Listen to my advice, in this world, the only one a girl can rely on is ultimately her own parents, only they will truly care for you."
"The so-called men and love are based on a certain element of interest, and once you have no more value, men will abandon you immediately."
"Your mother and your sister and your father have truly known their mistake, repented, and vowed to treat you well in the future."
Without waiting for Selena to speak, Bison righteously spatted out a speech of well-meaning words, "Forgiveness is a fine virtue. If you can forgive your mother today, then you will not only reap the benefits of a forgiving and generous heart, but a complete family and love."
"On the other hand, if you are bent on having your own way and have to bite the bullet on this matter, then you are narrow-minded, selfish and ruthless, and it will only be you who will suffer in the future."
"You should be magnanimous, not to mention that she is your stepmother for more than ten years. Why should you bring agony to everyone just because you alone? You should learn to tolerate and forgive, otherwise you can never reap happiness."
"Isn't it good to let go of a moment of resentment and embrace a future of love and happiness?"
His provocative speeches were heard and someone thought he was making sense and muttered in whispers.
"That's right, it's a family, but now it is separated and disintegrated, it is indeed saddening."
"Yes, people need families, a person alone is so pity. Selena lost her mother and her father was her only family. If the Riddle family can change their ways, and compensate Selena, forgiveness is indeed better than a court."
"I have read the gossip of the Riddle family two months ago, I saw it from an originally happy family fall into this state. As Bison mentioned it, I do feel inexplicable heartache."
Selena listened to the whispers of discussion coming from all around, and snorted, with a cold mockery in her eyes.
