Selina was already feeling somewhat guilty, and hearing his words, she momentarily forgot why she had called him.After waiting for a while without hearing her voice, Nestor pulled the phone away to check, confirming it was indeed her number. Various thoughts immediately crossed his mind.Had she di
Meanwhile, Selina answered the other call, hearing Fernando's voice: "Selina, are you alright?"Selina replied, "I'm fine, don't worry."Her voice was flat, her tone indiscernible, and her expression invisible through the phone.But Fernando could sense that Selina was angry with him."I've been loo

Worried he wouldn't believe her, she added, "You can verify right now who really controls S Tech Group."Bruno hesitated before hanging up to verify Selina's claims.He had originally planned to stay by Selina's side as David, hoping she would gradually fall for him.He believed that with enough tim
He was much more cautious now, choosing his words carefully.Selina took a deep breath, her bottom lip turning white from biting it, and finally steeled herself."Didn't you say before that you'd fed David to the fish?" she said through gritted teeth. "Now you're trying to use him to threaten me? Do
The implication was clear - if they protected Selina well, he'd overlook their failure with Bruno. If not, their punishment would be even worse.The guards quickly agreed.Watching Joseph stride away urgently, Selina had no choice but to return to the hotel under the guards' watchful eyes.She paced
