Nestor poured a glass of water for Selina and personally brought the medicine to her lips.Faced with Nestor's gentle, warm gaze, Selina uncomfortably took the medicine from his palm and swallowed it directly.Swallowing too quickly, the pill got stuck in her throat, neither going down nor coming ba
It was Selina's stomach growling.Selina curled her toes in embarrassment, averting her gaze guiltily, not daring to meet Nestor's eyes.The last bit of anger in Nestor's heart was shattered by her quail-like demeanor.Sighing helplessly, he took out a pink and white thermos box from the bedside tab
Her parents' return to Lumina wasn't completely unprepared.Moreover, if her father was truly in trouble, even if Thomas wanted to hide it from her to avoid worry, Nelson would definitely tell her.The last time she contacted Nelson about William's situation, Nelson didn't show any unusual behavior.
Selina rarely took the initiative, so Nestor called his subordinates in front of her. Within ten minutes, more than a dozen bodyguards who were clearly experienced professionals arrived.Four went to protect William, while the rest stayed to protect Selina.Watching Nestor arrange everything so effi
The door of the hospital room was suddenly knocked.After Selina called out "Come in," the bodyguard Nestor had just arranged to protect her pushed the door open."Miss Miller, Mr. Ross is outside. He says he wants to see you," the bodyguard said politely.Selina instinctively looked up at Nestor be
Nestor walked straight towards Fernando, who was so distracted he didn't notice someone suddenly appearing in front of him and bumped right into him.The two men were similar in height, but Fernando was broader than Nestor. However, being absent-minded, Fernando was knocked back several steps before
Fernando's mind raced, but staring at Nestor's glaring gold mask, he finally pressed his lips together and left angrily without another word.Nestor watched his retreating figure, his lips curling in disdain once more. As he turned, however, he seemed to think of something, and his mocking smile tur
The elevator finally reached William's floor.Nestor protected Selina as they struggled through the crowd.Seeing Nestor's previously immaculate suit now creased and his shiny black leather shoes marked with white scuffs, Selina couldn't help but smile.In Selina's memory, Nestor always appeared imp
Startled by the unexpected silhouette in the darkness, Selina jumped, instinctively curling into a ball."It's me!" David quickly said, realizing he had scared her.Hearing his familiar voice, Selina finally let out her held breath.The next second, she pushed away David's hand as he reached out to
As for David, Selina was so angry she refused to even mention him."How did things go with William and Grandfather?" Selina asked Thomas in a low voice, noticing Daniel and Nicole seemed relaxed.Thomas, wanting to make amends, told her everything.Bruno had taken in Dominic's remaining men and disc
Selina didn't give Bruno any chance.After hanging up on Bruno, she called Olivia directly to tell her they'd be taking the earliest flight back home.Before Olivia could even understand what was happening, she found herself on the flight home with Selina.Even after they landed and got into Ashley'
Pretending he had never escaped.Thomas's smooth handling of the Meracia situation was also thanks to the information David provided."Why did you keep this from me?" Selina's fingertips felt ice cold, struck by an inexplicable feeling of betrayal.She alone had been kept in the dark, worrying about
After tossing and turning, Selina couldn't fall back asleep. After calculating the time difference, she decided to call Thomas.Thomas had just finished dealing with William's matter when he saw Selina's call. Checking the time in Japan, his expression changed slightly as he quickly answered."Selin
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
Seeing Selina on the verge of losing control, Joseph quickly grabbed her arm. "Selina, stay calm. Now that we have him, unless he wants to die..."Before he could finish, Bruno suddenly broke free from his captors and made a dash for the balcony.No one expected Bruno to make such a desperate move,
