Be Spoiled After Rebirth (Selena and Osvaldo) novel Chapter 789

Chapter 789 The Most Beautiful Woman in the Room

"If Osvaldo really valued his wife, he wouldn't have been absent from the occasion to clear Selena's name!"

Either they had a falling out, or as she had previously suspected, there was some hidden agenda in their marriage and Osvaldo simply didn't care about the woman.

Regardless of which speculation turned out to be true, it was good news for Vivian.

And Osvaldo's absence finally pulled Vivian out of her state of bitter jealousy, and she let out a piercing cold laugh as she watched Selena coming down the spiral staircase.

There was an unwritten rule among the aristocratic circles that all debutantes needed to be invited by eligible young men to dance the opening dance at their parties. The more men that invited them, the more face they had.

But tonight, aside from the few men standing next to her, there was no one else in attendance.

Freddie was impossible, James was aloof, Christ had a grudge against the Turner family, and Richard was too young. The only ones who could step up to save Selena at this time were Patrick and Leon, who were blood-related to her.

The fact that the daughter of the Turner family couldn't find a man willing to ask her to dance would definitely become a joke if it got out.

Vivian lifted her chin, waiting to see Selena feel humiliated.

Selena, holding her skirt and facing the amazed gazes of the entire hall, stepped down the stairs, her eyes clear and deep, and her entire being exuded a noble and elegant beauty.

The ladies standing next to Lady Lauren looked interested.

Melissa showed a rare smile on her face, "This girl has really grown up, she's picked up all of her mother's good traits..."

Savannah's eyes glinted with delight, "She has more of her father's temperament, it's obvious they are both her parents' child."

The two military leaders were also sizing her up.

Lorenzo's gaze softened, "Callum did well, he left behind such treasure..."

Sidney shook his head and smiled, "This girl may look docile, but she's actually a prickly one. I heard that the day she came back, she disarmed the firearms specialist of the Second Military District, and the person is still being held by the tribunal. Those old men are getting worked up these days..."

Lorenzo immediately laughed, "Well done!"

Selena was about to descend the stairs when Leon's eyebrows moved and Christ was ready to approach. Suddenly, Selena's black and white eyes lit up and she looked behind them, her luscious red lips slightly curled. "You're late."

Hearing her sudden remark, everyone on the scene was stunned.

Christ's eyes darkened suddenly, adding a few shades of gloominess.

Everyone followed Selena's gaze and looked over, their previously indifferent eyes freezing unexpectedly as they collided with the figure walking towards them.

The atmosphere of the entire hall seemed to freeze completely in an instant.

Vivian's face contorted completely in an instant.

The young ladies couldn't tell if they were excited or scared, widening their eyes as if wanting to scream but fearing to do so. They clutched their chests and stared fixedly at the handsome and charming figure.

The man in black walked over, his dark gaze seeming to penetrate the ancient distances, landing perfectly on Selena, his every move exuding tenderness and dominance.

Hearing Selena's voice, Osvaldo quickened his pace and arrived in front of her, his long and white hand extended to her just as she stepped onto the last stair.

He silently stared at her, his lips curling up slightly. "Come."

Selena raised her face, smiling slightly as she placed her snow-white hand in his palm. The man hugged her waist and gracefully slid into the dance floor.

The young ladies on the scene watched this scene with stunned expressions, completely engulfed by a bone-chilling jealousy and sense of loss.

"How could this be? It must be fake..."
