As the group's gaze fell on the figure coming out of the elevator, the scene suddenly fell into a strange silence.
Leah's smug expression suddenly froze on her face.
Dominic's gloomy expression also suddenly stiffened.
The perfumers' gloating expressions also completely froze on their faces.
Even the media reporters widened their eyes, looking confused.
Selena was taken aback at the sight of so many people blocking the hallway. Her dark eyes fixed on Leah and her voice turned cold, "What have you done now, witch?"
Leah's face twitched violently. She widened her eyes and stared at Selena, shaking all over, looking as if she had seen a ghost. "How... how did you get here?"
Selena looked at her pale and guilty expression, raised an eyebrow, and asked casually, "This is where I live. If I'm not here, where should I be?"
Leah's face suddenly turned pale, even her lips trembling.
Yes...
Everyone knew that this was Selena's place.
So what was strange about her being here?
But...
Leah's whole body felt cold. She stared at Selena with resentment and hatred, her delicate face twisted.
Realizing she had been fooled again, Leah suddenly turned around, her face fierce as she stared at Beatrix.
Beatrix, who had been staring at Selena, who had just walked out of the elevator, also froze.
Selena is here...
Who is the woman lying in the room behind her?
After a moment of dead silence, everyone turned their heads suddenly and fixed their gaze on the woman in Selena's room.
Angie had just managed to survive until these people left. She trembled, ready to get up and dress, but suddenly heard Selena's voice.
Like a huge nightmare, it slammed heavily on her head.
Angie's nerves had just relaxed a bit, but now her whole body stiffened.
She felt the disdainful and mocking gazes returning to her one by one, shaking uncontrollably. Her long hair covered her unrecognizable face, as well as her fearful and resentful eyes.
No one is speaking.
A group of people are standing in front of the elevator, like a row of wooden stakes.
In the dead silence, Selena's mocking and icy voice sounded particularly clear, "What are you all doing here so late at night instead of sleeping, coming to my place?"
While asking, she walked past Leah and others, wanting to see what kind of trouble Leah had caused this time.
However, as she had just taken a few steps, a warm and slender hand suddenly reached out, gripping her chin and turning her gaze in a different direction.
"Don't look," the man's voice was soft and cool. "It's too dirty."
Angie heard that familiar and pleasant voice, spoke with disgust, and her body jerked heavily.
Selena was held by the man by the chin, forced to look at the pitch-black and terrifyingly beautiful mask, combined with the man's words, she guessed what had happened, her tone became cold, "Someone entered my room?"
Ghost looked at her with deep black eyes, revealing a hint of eerie playfulness, and nodded.
Selena's beautiful face immediately became cold.
Leia furrowed her brows, her eyes turning around in circles, and whispered, "Lady Selena, I am already contacting a new hotel..."
As for whether they can actually book a room, that's uncertain.
Anyway, with their lord, Madam will definitely not end up on the streets.
But the bill still needs to be paid!
Leia pointed at the group of perfumers present and began to complain, "Lady Selena, two disgusting scumbags went into your room and did something embarrassing. I was about to open the door and throw them out when this group of people suddenly came up, without asking anything, and directly said that woman was you!"
Leia glared fiercely at those people with awkward and embarrassed expressions, "They were just insulting you, accusing you of seducing that scumbag, and the Perfume Association listened to these women's words and cancelled your participation in the competition!"
Selena's gaze became icy as she scanned the faces of everyone present.
Those perfumers all felt guilty under her cold gaze and avoided eye contact with her.
Selena's gaze finally fell on the president of the Perfume Association, and a cold smile curled her lips, "You cancelled my participation?"
The president regained consciousness from his surprise and was caught off guard by Selena's cold gaze, which frightened him. "No, no, no!! Lady Selena, it's all a misunderstanding! I was angry for a moment and didn't investigate thoroughly, causing you to be wronged. I'm sorry!"
After speaking, he bowed and apologized to Selena with a humble attitude.
Selena's beautiful face showed no signs of thawing. "So, if I hadn't happened to come back at this time, not only would I have lost the opportunity to participate in the fragrance competition, but I would also have inexplicably gained a bad reputation and become notorious, ruining my reputation and career?"
The group of people from the perfume association were sweating profusely.
"Sorry, Lady Selena, it's our fault. We promise to investigate the truth thoroughly..."
Selena's eyes were filled with coldness and disappointment. "You've already said this once, and there's no value in believing it for the second time. After this fragrance competition, I and the Perfume Association will no longer have any connection!"
After speaking, Selena didn't look at the suddenly changed faces of the Perfume Association's group of people. She turned her gaze to the group of perfumers.
Those perfumers' spines shuddered, and they all lowered their heads, unable to look Selena in the eye.
Even Adeline felt a bit nervous in the face of Selena's momentum. After all, Selena was speaking the truth. If it hadn't been for her happening to encounter Selena in person at this time, not only would Selena's career have been ruined, but her life would have been destroyed as well.
And all of this was directly related to their unfounded accusations against her just now.
If it hadn't been for them happening to encounter Selena in person at this time, even if Selena produced evidence and spoke tirelessly, in the face of so many people who had "seen it with their own eyes and shared the same view," no one would have believed her.
Looking at the uneasy and indignant faces of those people, Selena was amused. "Are you all a bunch of pigs? You have eyes and brains on your heads, but you can neither see nor think. Other than being jealous, what else can you do?"
"If the entire fragrance industry is made up of people like you, there's no need for outsiders to crush it. It's only a matter of time before it falls apart!"
Those perfumers were scolded by Selena, their faces turning pale. However, due to Selena's identity and their own guilt, they dared not retort.
Adeline's face turned white with anger. "Selena, don't go too far. We were wronged, but haven't you suffered losses as well? Why are you speaking so rudely to us?"
