Selena answered, "Yes."
She has only been married so far.
Whether or not she will fall in love and marry another man in the future is anyone's guess.
But as long as she still had the identity of "the wife of Osvaldo", such a thing could never happen.
The true meaning of marriage is responsibility and fidelity.
Even though their marriage was founded for some reason, it could not be blasphemous.
Osvaldo's gloom dispersed in this moment.
A smile dazzled his face and his tone was hoarse, "You are unique to me."
She was his wife.
She was the woman he liked.
She was the woman he could not wait to take into his arms.
The girl he wants to hold in his heart for the rest of his life, carefully pampered and spoiled at times.
Selena inexplicably felt her legs go weak, and her eyelashes fluttered, feeling relaxed and joyful that the misunderstanding had finally been explained.
"Thank you for being so kind to me," Selena's eyes fell on Osvaldo's face, with gratitude under her eyes, "In the future, I will definitely not forget you."
Even if she would eventually leave Creephia, she would never forget that there was a man who was always there for her and treated her unconditionally when she was at her loneliest and most vulnerable and heartbroken.
Osvaldo stared steadily at the unmistakable hint of mourning in her eyes, and his hands tightened.
He took her into his arms and gently patted her spine, soothing this slender, fragile yet calm and strong person, "Sleep, I'll stay with you."
He did not bother to ask who Stanley was.
It didn't matter as long as the man wasn't her husband or the man she liked.
Even if Selena had met him early and had a different attachment to him, so what?
She was now his wife, his woman.
Since that man had allowed Selena to hurt and stray into the Creephia, got into his eyes and touched his heart, then that man was in no position to ask for her back.
Whatever may happen in the future, he will protect her.
For the rest of her life, she could only be his wife.
From an unseen angle, paranoia and distortion were evident on his face.
Selena only felt warm and safe in this embrace.
In the past almost twenty years of her life, she had never seemed so relaxed.
She closed her eyes at his gentle coaxing, the corners of her lips curving unconsciously as she gradually fell asleep.
...
The next morning Leia came downstairs.
Her heart was still worried, after all, her young master was not easily angry, and when he got angry, all were bound to die.
The night before, she had almost risked her life by speaking out to stop Osvaldo from lashing out.
Leia hid behind the staircase, her big eyes darting around, trying to find Selena or Osvaldo, to ascertain how the two were feeling today.
Selena's voice, however, came from behind him, "Leia."
Leia turned her head to see Selena standing behind her, glowing, with a smile on her face and a graceful demeanour, and she was in a "good mood".
Leia exhaled heavily.
Surprisingly, the young master was really coaxed into a good mood by Selena.
If Osvaldo's mother had known this, she would have been delighted.
After making sure that the young couple hadn't fallen out again, Leia ran over joyfully, "Madam, what's wrong?"

The readers' comments on the novel: Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
From the beginning of the story to page 148, the plot is just going in circles about fighting. So ridiculous and waste of time to read! I have no patience for these kind stories. Be more creative if you’re planning to write a book/story!!!...
Beautiful story...
