Although Dominic used his skills to win her over with his phone, he has genuinely cared for and protected her for many years. He even hurt Selena, who grew up with him and was his childhood friend, numerous times for her sake.
Leah's tears fell fiercely and hastily, and suddenly she felt moved.
Her reputation was ruined, her mother was in prison, and her father now hates her. The only person who seems to truly care for her in this world is Dominic.
In case something unexpected happens at the fragrance competition...
Leah clenched her fingers, and her eyes suddenly deepened.
Maybe it was time for her to prepare an exit plan for herself.
...
Selena thought that she would feel uncomfortable living in a stranger's room, whether it was with her or with Ghost. But when she walked in, she found that the situation was much better than she had imagined.
The two rooms on the top floor were very large, with all the necessary equipment. When the door was closed, they could be completely independent spaces.
Selena looked at the completely untouched room and her tired nerves finally relaxed.
She sat down at the table and took out the card reader that she had been holding in her hand.
Leia made the bed and was about to call Selena to go to sleep. But when she turned her head, she saw Selena with her head down, looking at a small card reader in her hand, with an indescribable expression on her face.
It just made people feel sad inexplicably.
Leia waited for a while, but Selena remained motionless in that position.
Leia quietly walked over and squatted down in front of Selena, looking at her with wide eyes, and whispered, "Madam..."
Selena was stunned for a moment and then came back to her senses. She looked at Leia's cute appearance and laughed, "What's wrong?"
Leia pointed to the card reader in her hand, "Madam, if you want to see it, I'll go get the computer for you right away."
She had a hunch that whatever Selena had been holding onto for so long must be very important.
Selena hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and placed the item in Leia's palm. "Find a safe and lock it up. Send it back to the Riddle family."
Leia was stunned. She stared at the card reader in her hand, almost feeling Selena's attachment to it. If she valued it so much, why seal it away?
But Selena always had her reasons for doing things.
Leia didn't dare to disobey, so she found a safe and locked the small card reader inside. It was like sealing a secret away, with no chance of ever opening it again in this lifetime.
...
In the room across the way, a slender hand slowly pressed the answer button.
Luke's voice came through the phone, "If Lady Selena finds out you're fooling her, she'll be angry!"
Osvaldo's voice was unique, and it couldn't possibly be fake. If anyone else tried to imitate him, Selena would surely know.
But this man had recorded his voice in advance.
Everything was under his control.
Just so Selena wouldn't fear him and leave him.
It was simply painstaking.
Osvaldo silently leaned against the table, his black eyes reflecting the closed door in front of him.
Luke was afraid of his silence. He was afraid that Osvaldo would hang up the phone in the next second. "Unless you truly repent or are reincarnated, she will find out sooner or later, and..."
His words trailed off, and his tone became a bit heavy. "We don't object to you pursuing your wife, but you don't have to be so pitiful, do you?"
The pathetic and helpless appearance of Osvaldo's efforts made them feel that he was worthless.
Moreover, if you like someone, you should like everything about her. Even if Selena really falls in love with Osvaldo in the end, is that real love?
Osvaldo's lips curved slightly, with a deep smile. "She deserves the best of everything."
Luke said nothing.
"Unless it's urgent, don't disturb me." The man's tone was casual as he finished speaking, and he hung up the phone without hesitation.
Luke muttered to himself, "Fuck!"
At midnight, the door to Selena's room was pushed open.
A slender figure slowly but confidently stepped in, their footsteps finally stopping by the warm big bed.
The man bent down, his knee touching the ground, his long coat spreading out on the ground like folded black wings, exuding nobility and luxury.
He gazed at the sleeping girl on the bed up close, silently enveloping her in his eyes.
She was sleeping restlessly, frowning, her delicate face looking tired and listless, as if she could be awakened at any moment.
The man looked at her for a long time, then slowly raised his hand, gently stroking the girl's soft white cheek with his fingertips, smoothing out the restless marks bit by bit, as if handling a priceless treasure.
After a while, he lowered his head and pressed a tender yet forceful kiss on the girl's rosy lips.
"Don't be afraid."
Whether or not the Turner family has anything to do with her, Lady Nevaeh's tragedy will never be repeated on her.
The man gently rubbed his tender lips against the girl's luscious ones, his low and hoarse voice exuding extreme reverence and comfort, "Good night."
In her sleep, Selena seemed to sense something, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, her slender fingers unconsciously grasping something beside her.
But the next second, she fell even deeper into sleep.
Although Mrs. Walson acted quickly, M City is not Creephia, and the Walson family's power operations take time. In addition, with Adeline's support, the news of Angie being raped by the perfume association judges in the hotel was exposed on the same night.
Fortunately, this happened late at night and did not cause an immediate sensation, giving the Walson family some breathing room. Mrs. Walson paid a high price to bribe several media outlets to delete the photos they had taken and immediately removed the news from the internet. But this only solved the immediate crisis.
Angie dared to seduce Ghost and offended Adeline and the perfume association. Adeline will not let her off the hook, but for now, she is taking a break to prepare for tomorrow's award ceremony and has no time to deal with Angie. The perfume association also has to deal with Beatrix and cannot spare the energy to trouble Angie.
Once the day breaks and the award ceremony begins, this matter will definitely be widely publicized and spread throughout the internet. By then, both Angie and the Walson family will have disgraced.
Mrs. Walson finished smoking irritably, glanced at Dominic who was guarding Angie's bedside, shrugged off his shawl, and walked into Leah's room. Leah, of course, couldn't sleep after such a big mishap. When she saw Mrs. Walson come in, her body shrank, and a pitiful expression unconsciously appeared on her face.
Mrs. Walson sneered.
