Chapter 263
As she spoke, Ashley became increasingly agitated. She thought. Even if I can’t get the female lead role. I absolutely won’t let Selina have it? Ashley’s agitation brought Frederick back to his senses. Realizing he’d said too much, he quickly added, “Tm sorry, Ashley, I must have been half- asleep Juu forget what I said”
Ashley said, “Frederick, you mentioned I could audition for The Game of Virgo for a bit part, and I’m going for it. Even if it’s just a small role, I’ll give it my all. This is a great opportunity, and I won’t let you downl
Frederick responded, “Well, Ashley, it’s good to hear you think that way, When the investors send someone to Sokovis for the auditions, you can go with Joseph. Ell let the investors know in advance.”
“Thank you. Frederick As soon as she left Frederick’s room, Ashley’s face instantly fell. She thought, I can’t afford to wait passively. If I want to surpass Selina and advance quickly, this is my only chance! During the audition, I need to find a way to stand out to the investors. This opportunity to change my fate cannot slip away.”
Several days went by, and Selina found the calm to be unnerving. The Hudson family hadn’t made any moves against her, which was unexpected. Upon investigating, she discovered that Viola had been shielding her, indicating an improvement in their relationship.
Although Viola had not yet openly accepted her as a daughter–in–law, Selina sensed she was accepted in Viola’s heart. Moreover, Viola’s personality was very much to Selina’s liking, and she felt they were on their way to becoming a great mother–in–law and daughter–in–law
During breakfast. Selina shared this discovery with Trevon. Trevon said, “I knew it! With a wife as amazing as you, how could Mom possibly object? As long as you show a bit of your true abilities, Morn will definitely acknowledge you as her daughter–in–law, Even if she questions her judgment she can’t doubt my taste.”
Selina savored the shrimp that Trevon had peeled and fed her. “Darling, you’re getting better with compliments, When I first met you. I thought you were such a bore. Now, you shower me with praise. I really misjudged you.”
That’s only for you. For someone as beautiful and amazing as you. I can never praise you enough,” Trevon replied.
Selina said, “Well keep it coming thent 1 certainly enjoy it. By the way, there is no news from the Brady family. Grandpa hasn’t visited, and that troublesome Uncle Keith hasn’t caused any issues. Did you do something behind the scenes?”
Trevon shrugged. “I haven’t done anything. Perhaps, like Mom, they have recognized your capabilities. The Brady family has been in business for generations and is very practical. They didn’t know your true strength before, but now that they do, they’re naturally keeping quiet Selina nodded, though she couldn’t shake the feeling that Trevon might have taken some action without informing her
Considering Keith’s past behavior toward her. Selina found it hard to believe the Brady family had accepted her so easily. Trevon continued, Forget about them. Since when did you start caring about what others think? That’s not the independent and capable woman I know
Selina smiled. “You’re right. I’ve been complaining that life is too peaceful and dull. I guess I wanted to stir things up for myself. I must be losing it Oh, Darling, thank you for reminding me.”
After dropping Trevon off at work, Selina received a mysterious text message: [Location: Toy Dreamland in Sokovis, Signed by WR. Entry on a Harley–Davidson motorcycle fit for a queen.] Selina thought for a moment. “Huh” She quickly guessed the sender’s identity and couldn’t help but
*mile.
Stepping out of the Brady manor, Selina made her way to the garage and selected one of Trevon’s vehicles. It was a Harley–Davidson Koo motorcycle. After donning her sunglasses and safety helmet, she gripped the handlebars firmly and twisted the throttle, and the distinctive tour of the engine sent her speeding off into the distance.
Despite being Sokovis hub for toys, entertainment, and electronics, Toy Dreamland was eerily quiet at this moment. It seemed preparations had been made for the arrival of an important figure, with the place meticulously arranged in advance,
Selina donned a mask and moved stealthily, shipping past security to enter Toy Dreamland. Eventually, she spotted a silhouette in an arcade. While all other shops were closed and the area was deserted, the arcade was alive with the sounds of gaming
As Selina entered the anade, all eyes turned toward her. The only game available was The King of Fighters. A young man in a baseball cap approached her. “Hey, gorgeous. Care for a few rounds?”
Selina responded, “Of course” The crowd murmured amongst themselves Jason Ramos, the young gimais in question, was no slouch. He had clinched third place in Clusias The King of Fighters soumtament. The game was immensely popular in Clusia, with top players frequendy participating in live streams, major platformy, and competitions. Despite Jaxton’s reputation, Selma defeated him effortlessly in just a few moves
Jaxton was stunned. Despite ranking among the top three players in the country, he had been utterly unclassed by Selina’s flawless combos. It was a humiluting defeat “No way! One more time! Our more time”.
Simeon Acosta, a middle aged nun, gently paned Jaxton’s shoulder. “Hey everyone gets only one chance to held. That’s what that person stated Don’t you want your reward anyone?
