Luke was shocked when he realized that Leah was not ordinary. His gaze darkened as he said, "I'll handle this matter."
Selena was in Osvaldo's arms, her eyes closed as she said, "Investigate secretly."
It was hard to imagine that little Selena would meet Christ in the capital, which allowed her to discover the hidden crisis behind them in advance. If there was really someone behind Leah, she would definitely take this opportunity to expose them all!
After Luke drove Osvaldo and Selena back to the castle, he left. The servants in the castle had already prepared everything.
After Selena finished dinner and rested for a while to recover her energy, Osvaldo took her to the basement. She was now not only able to force Osvaldo to leave his original position, but occasionally even forced him to counterattack, making great progress.
Perhaps due to her frustration, Selena was particularly fierce tonight, until she exhausted her last bit of energy before finally relaxing.
As usual, Osvaldo carried her back to their room. Selena lay on his shoulder and looked at the dark night sky above her head. Suddenly, she spoke up, "Osvaldo."
The man looked down at her.
Selena looked into his eyes and asked in a low voice, "Do you know what kind of situation would make a man not come back to find his wife and children for more than 20 years?"
Osvaldo's eerie eyes engulfed her like a starry night sea, gentle and silent. "I don't know."
Selena was slightly stunned.
Osvaldo stared at her without moving his gaze, with a memorable taste. "But I know that I will never become Callum."
"Callum may be a hero, but he is not a good husband, let alone a good father."
In the bone-chilling night, the man embraced his wife lovingly and headed towards the brightly lit area. "I would rather be a heinous person and not let the one I love suffer even bit."
Selena widened her eyes, looking at the delicate face that was close at hand, and in an instant, even her heart began to tremble.
Was she the one he loved?
Was he willing to be enemies with the whole world for her?
It was difficult to describe the tremor Selena felt when she heard these words.
Shock, moved, bitter, sweet... various emotions intertwined.
Selena's curled eyelashes trembled, and her face showed a moment of confusion. She suppressed the tumultuous waves in her heart and obediently leaned into his embrace.
...
After sending Selena back to the bathroom, during the brief moment the young girl was soaking in the bath, Osvaldo went to the balcony and called Luke.
Luke's tone was full of surprise even over the phone, "I've found something on the Stanley you asked me to investigate. If the Stanley Lady Selena mentioned is really the same person as the one in the federation, then they could very well be..."
A blood-red shadow suddenly swept across Osvaldo's eyes, and an eerie chill filled the air.
Luke's words were cut off mid-sentence.
He suddenly realized that the man Selena called out to in her sleep and relied on, how could their relationship be so simple? Selena cared so much about Stanley, and his status in her heart had even surpassed Osvaldo at one point. Bringing up their relationship in front of this man, wasn't that asking for trouble?
