Nestor took Selina's hand, letting her touch his face.Only then did Selina realize it was still Nestor's face, just altered with concealer and makeup to make his features less defined and striking.His scars were hidden under concealer and foundation, and combined with the cap's shadow, they were b
"You still haven't told me if you missed me," Nestor said softly near her ear, watching her face.Selina snorted lightly, pushing away his hand as it reached for her cheek."And you still haven't told me why you stayed in Auroville!"She'd been waiting for Nestor's explanation. Since he wouldn't bri
The man wasn't used to people speaking to him this way. He laughed, amused and irritated, looking at Selina with newfound interest: "Beautiful lady, you're not from Lumina, are you?"Few women in all of Lumina would dare act so proudly in front of him.Clearly, the woman before him wasn't one of the
Nicole gave him an exasperated look: "She's my biological daughter - of course I'm biased towards her instead of you! Should we ask your father..."Adrian quickly surrendered: "Aunt, I was wrong. Please stop bringing up my father at every turn?"Nicole threatened: "Behave yourself and I won't mentio
Selina returned to find Nicole waiting in the room."What's going on between you and Adrian?" Nicole asked with a frown.Selina herself didn't understand what had happened, let alone how to answer Nicole's question."Mom, why did you suddenly come to the stairwell?" Selina deflected.Nicole hesitate

Selina stepped forward to check Grandfather's pulse in detail, finding something peculiar in his vital signs.The pulse was strong and steady - at first glance, it felt like that of a young person.But listening carefully, she realized this strength wasn't natural. It seemed artificially enhanced, a
Hearing the lowered but unaltered voice, Selina's expression changed as she turned to look at him in surprise.The face was completely different from Nestor's.It was an ordinary face - the kind that would blend into any crowd instantly.Selina remembered this was Raul's face, one of the security gu
Selina got in the car and signaled the driver to wait.Taking a deep breath, she answered the call.The line connected, but there was only dead silence from the other end, like a vacuum.She said "hello" twice, but still no response.Selina checked her phone - the call was definitely connected."Who
Selina bit her lip, and though reluctant, finally nodded.After breakfast, Thomas arranged for someone to take her to Bruno's hotel.Bruno was just preparing to leave.Seeing Selina, he smiled and gestured for her to join him in his car.Selina got in, expressionless."You must think I'm despicable,
Before the security guard could finish speaking, Selina had already jumped out of the car and started walking toward the landfill without a word.The guards had no choice but to hurry after her."Split up and search by zones," Selina ordered, quickly dividing the area.According to Fiona, she'd pass

But Sarah doubted his words."From the beginning, I only rejected the role of fiancée, and you happened to play that role," Vincent explained patiently. "It's like David with Selina initially - it wasn't pure dislike."Sarah suddenly looked up at him.Vincent noticed that while Sarah had ignored his
Selina slept in the bed she once shared with David and had a very long dream.In the dream, she explained to David at the beginning that she hadn't drugged him, and this time, he believed her. Though their marriage was forced by Rachel, while David wasn't particularly warm, he gave her the respect s
The authorities, already hostile toward the three families and intent on their elimination, would never allow the fallen Adams family to rise again.Moreover, if not for Dominic, Selina wouldn't have suffered so much. Nestor's display of capability before the authorities was merely to gain power to
When Selina was about to call Fernando in frustration at his silence, he finally replied: "Nestor said he'd survive no matter what, and absolutely wouldn't give me any chance with you."Even through the computer screen, Selina could sense Fernando's resentment."When did he contact you?" Selina aske
