Also from this evening on, the Turner family's princess completely stepped out from behind the scenes and into the public eye.
After the dance, Selena playfully smiled at Osvaldo, then released his hand and walked towards Patrick under his gentle and almost focused gaze.
However, as soon as she turned around, Osvaldo pulled her back by the waist. The man's thin lips were pressed against her ear, and his voice was like melted caramel, hot and restless. "After it's over, I'll take you out."
Selena's heart skipped a beat, and her cheeks turned flushing.
It's not that she wasn't reserved, but the man's expression at the moment was just too good-looking.
She knew that he wouldn't be late for no reason. There must be another reason...
Selena touched her hot ear and nodded.
A hint of satisfaction flashed in Osvaldo's eyes. He smiled and let go of her, like a true gentleman.
Selena walked towards Patrick in high heels, meeting his gaze and feeling inexplicably guilty. Unable to resist, she pinched her ear again and said, "Let's go."
Patrick glanced coldly at Osvaldo and led Selena to meet people.
Selena was beautiful, with clear eyes and a sweet mouth. After walking around for a while, she received a lot of attention and affection.
Melissa and several ladies even tried to adopt her as their goddaughter, but Selena politely declined them all.
After meeting with the elders, Selena took Hattie to greet the students of Creephia University.
As a group of people were talking, a cold, heavy voice suddenly sounded from beside them, "Lady Selena, can I speak with you for a moment?"
Selena turned her head.
The Shaw siblings had walked over without her realizing it. Freddie's eyes were heavy, and Vivian's face was pale, staring at her in anger.
The Shaw siblings couldn't possibly have come to celebrate with her, even though they were close to Osvaldo.
Selena was aware of this fact and looked up at the hall, where Osvaldo was nowhere to be seen.
She touched Hattie's hair and said, "Wait for me here, Hattie."
Hattie had been staring at the Shaw siblings with an unfriendly expression, and wrinkled her nose when she heard Selena's words. "Selena, they have bad intentions..."
Selena laughed, her eyes bright and piercing. "But I'm not kind either."
After speaking, she lifted her skirt and headed upstairs first.
Freddie looked at her fearless back and followed closely behind.
Vivian bit her lip but still followed along.
As they made their way to the second floor, away from the noisy crowd, Selena stopped and stood by the railing, looking down at the luxurious and bustling scene in the hall, a smile playing at the corners of her lips.
She was dressed in a long black gown, her skin tender, and her eyes pitch-black. When she smiled, she was like a charming creature of the night.
Freddie gazed intensely at this beautiful and delicate woman.
When he first saw her in Creephia, he never thought that this woman, who once he didn't even bother to spare a glance at, would become the biggest threat to the entire Shaw family in the future.
Selena looked down at the lively scene below, feeling the sincerity of the Turner family. Her mood improved, and her tone was less cold. "In consideration of Osvaldo, I'll give you two a chance. Mr. Shaw, please tell me your demands."
Vivian's expression suddenly changed. "You--"

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...
