Before Selena could finish speaking, Osvaldo reached out and touched her hair. "Be good," he said.
Every time a man says these two words to her, Selena feels particularly pathetic.
After dinner, Selena walked around the garden for a while and finally followed Osvaldo into the basement.
Except for the time when her knee was seriously injured, her training has never been delayed. Although Osvaldo is injured now, there are so many projects in the basement that do not require a man to do it personally.
Osvaldo's task tonight is to guide her, and then, as usual, to take her back to her room after she finishes training.
While Selena was receiving guidance from Osvaldo in the basement, in the sanatorium, Klara walked out of the room anxiously.
Alberto has been unwell since the stroke that Selena caused him. Otherwise, he would not still be living here now.
Klara looked at Alberto sleeping and walked quietly to the window, constantly looking at the message she just received on her phone.
Her expression revealed obvious anxiety and hesitation.
In the past, if she received such a message, Klara would have immediately left, but she remembered Selena's warning during the day.
Once she leaves here, she may encounter danger.
Although Selena did not force her to be confined here and left room for her to move around, if she wanted to go out, she could find a nurse outside to accompany her.
Klara knew the two female nurses were very skilled and with them watching, Leah could not move her or her unborn child.
However, this matter... cannot be let Selena know!
Klara paced nervously in the room for a few rounds, and finally made up her mind to take a gamble.
No matter how malicious Leah is, she only knows how to play with women's emotions. She doesn't believe she would dare to do anything illegal.
Moreover, Klara holds a strong grudge against Selena. She is jealous of Selena's advantages and resents that Selena won't give her the position of Mrs. Riddle.
However, Selena's position is too high. Even the man who held a knife to Klara's neck in the private room last time, not to mention Selena's never-before-seen boyfriend, made Klara fearful.
She cannot shake Selena's position, so she can only find a way to boldly secure her own future.
After making up her mind, Klara immediately went into the room to change her clothes, put on a hat and mask, and waited for a while to make sure that the two caregivers who were taking care of Selena had returned to their rooms to rest. Then she crept out slowly.
She was afraid of alarming the two caregivers, so she didn't even dare to take the elevator and chose to go down the stairs barefoot.
It wasn't until she reached the next floor that Klara put on her shoes, pressed the elevator button, left the nursing home, and drove away.
...
At ten o'clock, Osvaldo carried the exhausted Selena out of the basement.
Perhaps because she was getting used to it, she didn't pass out this time. As she was being held by the man, she looked up at the starry sky and suddenly spoke, "Osvaldo..."
The man responded with a gentle sound.
Selena looked up at the starry sky, lying on his shoulder, and asked curiously, "Do you like looking at stars?"
In the darkness, Osvaldo's voice was soft, "Do you like it?"
Selena nodded, "Yes, I do."
Osvaldo seemed to smile, suddenly stopped walking, looked into her eyes and asked, "Why?"
Selena didn't answer, but blinked and asked back, "Don't you like it?"
