With the other video clips as proof, the incident was solved without a further ado. Selena was grateful for all that Pierre had done for her. With her face flushed, she looked at him. He, too, looked back at her while panting.
“Thank you,” she said.
“What for?”
“For finding that clip for me, of course! By the way, aren’t you being coy? Instead of sending it to me only after you left the hotel, you could’ve just handed it to me in person. You didn’t have to be so secretive about it.”
Upon witnessing her excitement, he decided he shouldn’t dampen her mood. In fact, he wasn’t the one who found the clip. While he was also investigating the matter in order to help clear her name, he had yet to find the clip. Meanwhile, he assumed that Selena found the clip on her own when he was watching the press conference, but it turned out that somebody was helping her out.
But who could it be? He couldn’t help wondering. “I won’t accept a verbal expression of your gratitude. Tonight...”
There was a blush on her face when he whispered into her ear. Then, she had her face against his chest. “Okay.” Listening to the steady beating of his heart, she finally felt secure for the first time in a long while.
Ever since her mother passed away, she had lost her sense of security. Back when she was still in love with Finneas, she gave up her all for him. While she learned many lessons through that relationship, she was still feeling insecure, which was why she constantly tried to please him and his family.
