Leah's eyes widened in horror and her face turned ashen.
The Riddle family was ruined, Mr. And Mrs. Riddle was close to death, and if the Walson family refused to take her in, she would truly become a lonely and destitute person. She was getting closer to the fate that Selena had determined for her.
Extreme resentment and anger filled Leah's heart, making her face twisted and sickly. "Selena, aren't you afraid of causing your father's death by treating me like this?"
Selena sneered, her eyes full of contempt. "Do you think someone like you can threaten my father?"
Leah's face twitched violently. Before she could retort, Selena continued in a cold and arrogant voice, "As for David, if my father was really in his hands, could he have been driven out of the capital for so many years and not be able to make a comeback? My boyfriend's father must know things that he can't possibly know, and he knows more than David!"
"It's foolish to try to threaten me with my father's life!"
If Callum was really in David's hands, Osvaldo couldn't have kept it from her. David might know something, but it definitely didn't include Callum's whereabouts. Otherwise, that man wouldn't have suddenly come back to target her.
Leah's face twisted with bitterness. "Then what are you here for?"
She knew Selena well. Selena wouldn't come to her for no reason and say so much. Everything Selena did had a purpose.
Selena sneered, walked over to Leah, raised her hand and grabbed Leah's neck, her voice chilling. "Tell me everything you know about my 'sudden change of character'!"
The bruises on Leah's neck from Dominic's choking hadn't even healed yet. They hurt even more when Selena grabbed her neck. She glared at Selena with bitterness and hoarsely said, "I'll never tell you, even if I die!"
Selena's eyes grew cold. Suddenly, she laughed and unexpectedly let go of Leah.
Leah was taken aback, thinking that Selena had given up. Just as she let out a sigh of relief, she saw Selena turn to Leia next to her and say, "Go tell the guard at the door that Leah is at least a pregnant woman and she's injured. The Walson family is her in-laws, so they have an obligation to take care of her. Let them come and see her."
Leia glared fiercely at Leah and turned to go fetch the Walson family.
Leah's face, which had just begun to improve slightly, turned pale again. "Selena, you will go to hell--"
Before she could finish her sentence, Mrs. Walson suddenly burst in and grabbed Leah by the hair. Immediately after, a heavy slap landed on Leah's face.
"Bastard! Give me back my daughter!!"
Mrs. Walson grabbed Leah's hair and slammed her head against the wall, causing Leah to scream in agony.
Selena watched coldly as Leah was torn apart by Mrs. Walson, her head bleeding profusely. Other than pain and fear, Selena noticed nothing noteworthy in Leah's eyes.
Once Selena confirmed that Leah knew everything she needed to know, she lost interest and turned to leave.
As Selena was about to step out the door, she suddenly heard Leah's sinister curse from behind her, "Selena, I curse you and the ones you love. Unless it's a matter of life and death, you'll never have the chance to see me again!"
Selena's pretty face suddenly froze, and a chilling emotion appeared in her eyes.
Leia sensed Selena's unusual behavior and felt a bit uneasy. She carefully watched Selena's icy face, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say.
She didn't know who Selena was looking for, nor did she understand why Selena cared so much about what Leah had said. In her memory, Selena had never cared so much about Osvaldo or anyone else.
Thinking of this, Leia's expression became serious. Could it be that the person Selena was thinking of was Osvaldo's biggest rival in love?
During Leia's idle thoughts, she suddenly heard Selena say, "Wait for me here."
The little girl looked up and saw Selena walking towards the restroom.
As soon as Selena turned the corner, she leaned against the wall and pressed her hand against her heart.

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...
