Chapter 382 I've tried several times and failed
Dominic looked down at Leah and raised his hand to wipe her tears, but his eyes didn't soften in the slightest, "Leah, I don't suspect you, I just want to know the truth as it is."
Previously, she sent Selena the bed photos, although later he did not pursue the matter to the end, but ultimately became a thorn buried in Dominic's heart.
He doesn't mention it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Or Leah will be upset.
Leah was flustered by Dominic's sharp eyes, and the cynicism in her heart grew deeper, she shook her head in a panic, her face pale as she denied, "I don't know. I..."
Dominic looked at her coldly from close range, obviously having to have an answer.
Leah burst into tears, her hands covering her face, her eyes haggard and helpless, crying, "Dominic, do you have to do this to me at such a difficult time? What do you want me to say, to accuse my mother of being cruel? She did something wrong, but it was for my own good. Everyone under the sun is qualified to accuse her, but not me."
Dominic looked at her pale face, her slender shoulders trembling as she cried, which looked pitiful.
His heart softened slightly.
Her father was seriously ill, her mother had been arrested, and the Riddle's had suffered great hardship, all relying on her alone for support.
And, she was badly injured and, at this time, clearly mentally exhausted.
It was indeed too cruel of him to force her at this moment.
Dominic hid the complexity of his heart, "Okay, I won't ask, don't cry."
Leah tugged on his hand and said pleadingly, "Dominic, help me, help me save my mother."
Dominic's face, however, turned cold, "Leah, your mother should be punished for her wrongdoing."
He had always known that Selena might not have had a good time in the Riddle family.
But he thought that, at best, she would be without her mother's care, suffer in trivial matters, and remain the high and mighty lady.
But he didn't expect that Selena would have such a difficult time in the Riddle family.
He had seen with his own eyes the coldness and ruthlessness of Alberto, and the viciousness and domineering of Molly could be glimpsed in its entirety in this incident.
Dominic could not imagine how much warmth Selena had received growing up under the noses of such two people.
He closed his eyes abruptly, and the always silent face appeared before him.
Why had he not realised, until this moment, that those dark, clear eyes were always heartbreakingly quiet and dead.
It was only when he had seen that Selena smiled.
But what did he do?
He had been accusing her viciousness.
At Dominic's heart, hatred sprang up.
Leah cried with tears, "But if you don't save my mother, she will go to jail. Selena will not spare my mother. She hates us, she wants our whole family to die-"
"That's enough." Dominic shouted angrily and looked coldly at Leah, "Selena let her go, did she ever let Selena go?"
Leah was frozen.
Dominic had never spoken to her in such a stern manner before, for Selena.
She was unbelievable, she shook her head, "Dominic, that's my mother, how can you do this to me?"
"This matter is not negotiable." Dominic was hard-hearted as he said, "If Selena hadn't been lucky that day, what would have happened to her? A woman as vicious as your mother deserves to spend the rest of her life in jail."
What Molly destroyed was Selena, his marriage to Selena, and all the love Selena had for him.
Without that incident, he would not have repented of his marriage in public, and he would not have lost Selena completely.
Selena would not hate him.
Much less would she become so strangely, which was a panic to him.
He would never choose to forgive this.
Dominic turned coldly away.
Leah sat alone in her wheelchair, teardrops still on her pale face, and after a moment, she trembled and smiled madly.
Molly had hurt Selena, so he was so angry, so cold and heartless.
What would he do if he knew that the person who hurt Selena and wanted to ruin Selena was actually her?
Leah's eyes were filled with sneers and resentment, and as she laughed, she burst into tears.
...
In the castle.
Selena stood outside the door of Osvaldo's study.
The study was a very sacred and forbidden place for her.
Her study, like her bedroom, was her most private domain, and no outsiders were ever allowed in except for those who cleaned it.
Even Stanley never went inside.
She wasn't sure if Osvaldo had such a taboo, after all, for a manager, there were a lot of secrets in the study.
Selena raised her hand, originally wanting to knock on the door and ask about it, but just as her finger touched the door, the door opened a crack.
Selena was stunned, and with her hands on the door frame, she carefully peeked in her head and looked inside.
He met the gaze of Osvaldo.
Osvaldo looked at her big, pure and beautiful eyes, and his lips curled slightly.
He put down the pen in his hand, walked over, took her hand and led her straight in.
Selena was surprised that she had gotten in so easily?
Osvaldo looked at her somewhat confused expression and gave a low laugh, "What's wrong?"
Selena's delicate red lips twitched, "I...."
Osvaldo's deep black eyes were like a pool of ink, and he looked into her eyes with a touch of encouragement, "Yes?"
Selena took the perfume recipe out, "Leia said, you know this."
Osvaldo finally saw Selena come to his door and laughed delightedly, he opened the perfume recipe and took a look at it, a hint of surprise darted across his eyes.
Selena looked at him with glowing eyes and blushed, "I tried many times and failed."
Osvaldo smiled and soothingly touched her forehead.
Then he took her hand and went to the desk, placed Selena on a chair, then took out an A4 sheet of paper and laid it on the desk.
Selena was sitting in a chair, and Osvaldo was right behind her, so close that when she tilted her head, she could touch his face.
Selena's ears were burning and she was just about to back away, but then she saw that Osvaldo put a pen in her hand, "Look at this."
Selena blinked, understanding that this man was trying to instruct her, and immediately stopped moving.
Osvaldo smiled, his lips pressed to her ear, his compelling masculine breath creeping up her neck as he gave an extremely gentle whisper.
Selena listened to his low, raspy voice, and her legs inexplicably went weak.
