Alberto said categorically, "Search your car, of course."
Leia had a murderous look on her face, "Don't even think about it, you bastards."
Selena looked coldly at the group of people blocking her car across the street and smiled, "Trying to search my car without evidence, do you know it's against the law?"
"How can there be no evidence?" Molly glared at Selena and said angrily, "Isn't the surveillance outside the president's office evidence? The plan was sitting on the desk, and it disappeared after you went in. If you hadn't taken it away, could it have grown wings and flown away on its own?"
Alberto questioned in a hateful voice, "What are you doing in my office? Everyone is in a meeting, but you are the only one who is restless and wants to leave early, but why did you go to my office? What are you doing in there when you know there's no one there?"
Leia was about to get out of the car to kill them in a fit of anger, but Selena stopped her.
Selena let out a soft laugh, her gaze sharp and cold as she glance the couple, "So, this is why you called today and begged me to come to the meeting?"
Alberto had grim in his face, "I asked you to come to the meeting because I wanted to "clear the air" with you and save the Riddle's together. I told you all the biggest confidential documents of the company, is my sincerity still not enough? But you are harbouring evil intentions, you would rather ruin your mother's heart and soul than see me have a good time. Selena, how cruel are you?"
Selena looked at him with a wry smile, "Believe me, Mr. Riddle, if I were really ruthless, you would absolutely want to get away from me instead of embarrassing yourself here with such unsavory tactics."
Alberto's face froze for a moment and he gave her a deadly glare.
Charles saw this scene, the corners of his lips curled up, "Lady Selena, it is a matter that concerns the critical survival of the company, so, please get out of the car. We will just search your car, it absolutely will not damage your things."
Selena's icy gaze fell on Charles' face.
For the first time, Charles faced those dark, cold eyes, like a clear lake, but if he looked closely, it was a deep, bottomless sea, which surprisingly gave him goose bumps for a moment.
He had always thought that this woman was just smart and pretty, not much of a threat, and that with the Riddle's heavy losses, it was a good opportunity for him to make his mark.
If he destroys Selena, he will be highly valued by Alberto, and the game he develops will serve as the foundation for the Riddle's resurgence, and he will surely soar to great heights by then.
But in this moment, he was uneasy.
But it was at the critical moment, and there was no room for him to hesitate and retreat.
Charles suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, put on an expression of endurance and humiliation, bent down to Selena, "Lady Selena, the Riddle's is something left behind by your mother, the lifelong efforts of so many people in the Riddle's. It was once that glorious, it's defeat is sad enough, as an employee of the Riddle's, no one wants to see it disappear."
"That business plan is Riddle's last hope, if it's lost, and so is the Riddle's. Lady Selena, please show your mercy."
Passers-by who saw this scene began to waver in their originally determined hearts.
After all, Selena had, not long ago, indeed said herself that she would rather destroy Riddle's than to be mercy to Alberto in any way.
If Riddle's is back from the dead, Alberto's position as chairman will be more secure, and there is no guarantee that Selena will have any crooked thoughts in order to retaliate.
With such a thought, the crowd looked at Selena, who was sitting in the car, elegant and noble, and their eyes took on a certain extra strangeness.

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...
